Wise closed my account with balance in it. This feels like theft tbh.

Just had my Wise account closed right after receiving my first Stripe payment from a sponsor on my YouTube channel. Right before the shutdown, they asked me for my residence permit. I submitted it and the account got locked. Now I can’t log in to contact support. When I try to request a refund, they ask me to resubmit the same document that got my account shut down in the first place. So what’s the point of re-submitting them? I have like $1k in my balance, Will it just disappear forever? This feels like straight-up theft. Anyone been through this? Is there *any* way to get my balance back? Thank you. --- **Post Details:** - **Subreddit:** r/digitalnomad - **Author:** u/itskoka - **Score:** 151 upvotes - **Upvote Ratio:** 93.0% - **Comments:** 58 - **Posted:** 7/12/2025 - **URL:** https://reddit.com/r/digitalnomad/comments/1ly6c2q/wise_closed_my_account_with_balance_in_it_this/
