System changes at Spendesk destroyed the product and work flow

Spendesk used to work ok.
However, out of the blue they had account changes which lead to a complete chaos! Massive administrative effort was required, terrible information policy and eventually all accounts changed and require manual re-calibration. It is like changing to an entirely new provider with a new product-

Suddenly it all went down

For the past 3 years everything went well for our companies with Spendesk.
Suddenly, Spendesk wanted to go through an extensive validation process, needed rental contracts, documents from authorities, shareholder information etc., and we had to go through very extensive questionnaires and a complicated, very chaotic process on the platform.
If this is not done, they cancel access to the platform. Consequently, they leave you alone as a customer.
We will use this opportunity with our 5 companies to go to another provider that can be relied on.

Impossible to get money out

While Spendesk was doing great for me for multiple years, I ended up leaving them as I know longer needed the service.

However, withdrawing the money after trying to close the account seems impossible. The redemption team blocked my emails and continuesly sending emails in deutsch that I can't answer because my email is blocked. Everytime I reach out to them through livechat they claim they will have something figured out, nothing happens. And the redemption teams keep sending the same email over and over as they are not even being informed I cannot answer their emails.

Been ongoing for months now with no progress in getting the money withdrawed from their bank account.

Errors

Errors, always errors and no solutions

It supposed to be helpful keeping track of all a company´s expenses, but it's all the opposite, it gives a hard time to upload the entries from their data to the accounting system as there is always some entries missing and their tech support does not give an action or reliable answer to the cases. Very frustrating system.

Dear Luz, we're truly sorry to hear about your experience and want to address this for you.
After investigating further, it seems that there was an issue with the export because the downloaded period is too large - we recommend breaking the export period down into weeks to allow all payables to generate when exporting 1000s of payables.
If you have any doubts or questions on this, our support team will assist you.
Thank you for your feedback and understanding.
Best regards,
Spendesk Team

Great tool!

Spendesk is a user-friendly and easy-to-use platform. I'm an HR, and I use it to validate some expenses but also to deal with my providers. I love using it!

Estonia and a handful of EU countries can't be served...

The title says it all, after spending time looking for a suitable solution we end up being declined. understandable and we accept it, however this information should be publicly available, so people don't spend their time on solutions they are unable to use.

Hence, their claim to serve EEA is bogus, not quite sure about trustworthiness of a review from an Estonian business, claiming to be satisfied with them. Could have been before some banking and regulatory issues, but I have a feeling that customer is no longer satisfied.

An employee's card was compromised

An employee's card was compromised. After we contacted Spendesk, we were told that Spendesk had also identified the charges as suspect charges. The issue is that no one notified us that the card was compromised, no one asked about the charges. And then no one instructed us to block the card and request a new one. We are used to our old credit card company flagging suspect charges and immediately notifying us that they are closing the card and issuing a new one. This was not done by Spendesk. It seems that there should be more response to possible fraudulent charges.

Joyful Spendesking for a few months now

We started using Spendesk at out company (~50 people) couple of months ago. It's been really nice to get away from using few credit cards into using separate cards (automatically created with a push of a button in Spendesk) for each service we use. It makes it so much easier to protect from fraud & mistakes and to track the costs and set budgets.

Another big issue I used to have was getting receipts matched with the payments, but that has close to dissappeared now with Spendesk as many services allow to set email address where to send receipts and sending them automatically to Spendesk to be handled by Marvin to robot makes matching work most of the time. Some services don't allow sending receipts to emails, or allow it only for sending to your own address and even in that case it's as easy as forwarding the email to the Spendesk address, just awesome!

I've had a couple of chats with Spendesk support and they are very receptive to improvement ideas and also make sure that questions are followed up.

Great tool with minor bugs

Great tool with minor bugs to be fixed.
Around 4:00 - 5:00 pm the App tends to bea really slow, at times payments are not going through or virtual cards take for ever to load. Otherwise it's a good tool.
