Verified Reviewer |How funds are distributed
ActBlue is not easily available to discuss issues I have with the distribution of funds. They do not make it easy to obtain this information.
User's recommendation: Be very cautious about donating money to the organization.

Yes. Contacted Act Blue and Citibank.
No resolution yet to my knowledge. Please notify PayPal and Citibank to.dismiss this charge on my accounts.
Was told it would have to post. I told my bank and Citibank not to pay. Now, since Oct 9, PayPal is holding the money and only Asian agents talk to me with no resolution. Citibank tells me they are going to have to withdraw the money in two days.
I will then miss my mortgage payment, heat and grocery budgets. Can you do anything from your end? Delete my name and email from donor requests: send smail requests.
I will never donate through PayPal again. Tell Bernie I said hello.
User's recommendation: Do not donate through PayPal

Verified Reviewer |Donate to act blue
Never got a email verification code. So never got a answer to my question about how to donate directly to actblue
User's recommendation: Keep trying
Remove from your list
This is the second time Ive had to contact Act Blue to remove my name and phone number from your solicitation/donor list.
When I make a donation every democrats in the country starts sending me emails and texts.
No wonder people complain about democrat fund raising, stop sharing our contact with every candidate out there. Why not limit it to at least those in our state or federal candidates, maybe then people wouldnt hate yall so much.
User's recommendation: Act blue used a company called “Pissed Off Consumer” looks like a spam email

Verified ReviewerRepeated text messages
I find your organization hopelessly incompetent and increasingly intrusive. They are wasteful by sending irritating, repetitive messages.
- Many
Preferred solution: Apology
User's recommendation: Don’t use Act Blue to make contributions
I do not donate on line. Where can I mail a check for fight for freedom.
No response ever came. Why do you not provide an address for mail

Verified Reviewer |Resolved: Too much money taken out.
Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. They finally understood my concern, and refunded $250.
Money taken out on 2/25/25. Act Blue told immediately that too much money taken out. THEY NEVER BOTHERED TO CONTACT ME!!!
On 3/3/25 left message with act blue.
Told them that I was an FDR Democrat, but now I'm an INDEPENDANT!!!
To stop my connection with your organization.
I didnt understand when I signed up. That I would continuously get solicitations for money.
I truly thought I would be getting only requests for my opinions. The idea that you would be sharing my contact information with others, never occurred to me! Also the fact that those campaigns cant be stopped. From sending me requests for money.
Because they just get the contact information from you.
It is also extremely irritating. That these seemingly, up front, are only for opinions. But are just fronts for solutions of donations.
IS JUST PLAIN WRONG, BECAUSE ITS DECEPTIVE! I get that businesses want to sell their products & services.
HOWEVER THERE SHOULD ALWAYS BE A SIMPLE WAY TO CANCEL THE CONNECTION & STOP YOU FROM SHARING MY CONTACT INFORMATION!
HOW DO I GET YOU TO STOP SHARING &/or SENDING MY CONTACT INFORMATION WITH ANYONE OR ANYTHING?
User's recommendation: Do not let this sort of entity get away with these constant harassment for more money. Give only through direct contact with the recipients!
Complaint
Why do you lie to the American public, telling them that social security is in danger just to raise money! This is an outright lie!
Social security is not in danger. Musk is only trying to get rid of the fraud and waste. All these threats by the democrats is for the purpose of raising money! The Dems are all done.
They have no agenda except for HATE! Very sad.
User's recommendation: Don’t fall for these outrageous lies!
Overcharge
Charged $500 against my VISA card when I only charged $50. Have not responded for my request for help.
User's recommendation: Be very cautious

Verified ReviewerResolved: No response for donation charge I didn't make
Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. They finally responded and issued a full refund.
Apparently, they're back-logged at Customer Service. I'm just glad they took care of it.
Still no response from Actblue! It's been almost a full week, several emails and leaving a voicemail, and they have not contacted me about a refund. I could have made more donations to the organizations I like to support, but I will never use Actblue again.
You have to leave a message because they don't take live calls. I have left several messages by email and one on their voicemail through you.
As usual, no response.
They are the worst and I will never donate through them again. I need my $70 back!
They charged me for a $70 donation, which I never made. Because of that, and unless I am given a full refund, I will never use actblue again.
They need to be held accountable for their mistake. Use them with intense scrutiny.
- Support the people i also support
- Trying to contact them and get a response is like pulling my hair off of my scalp painful and meaningless they are one of the worst companies ive had to deal with
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Find another donation site and let candidates know that you will not donate through their organization

Verified Reviewer |No answer
I have not heard from ACTBlue. I will try to reach out again.
I need to speak to them about deleting Marjorie Snells acct. she has been making some payment but she doesnt remember, she has Alzheimers.
No human service
Maybe have actual people to talk to instead of all automated system. It took multiple times to converse with a chatbot, which responded with a script for every answer I gave, to get monthly donation canceled.

PayPal is run by a crook named Peter Thiel..Elon Musks buddy. Used them ONCE 15 years ago and it was a scam.
PayPal is owned by EBAY. And some guy owns almost all of the shares-Pierre Omidyar, a French-born Iranian American B! with a Billionaire.
I quit PayPal decades ago. I used it once and it was a disaster. Remember WHO owns this company.
No one particular person owns PayPal. Its owned by shareholders.
If you are trying to say Elon Musk does, he doesn't. He sold his shares in 2002.
See comment above.
You're close. It was started by a bunch of guys...One who is PETER THIEL. ELON MUSKS buddy..
PAYPAL SUCKS! IT'S ONE OF THOSE COMPANIES THAT YOU "CAN'T GET THERE FROM HERE" IMPOSSIBLE.
