> This article is all written on the decision from Wells Fargo to stop offering zelle to accounts with a Venezuelan mailing adress.

Is this really going to make a difference then? Most Venezuelans I know with Wells Fargo accounts are using US mailing addresses even if they don't live in the US. They use a friend's address or use a mailbox service.

My biggest bet is that they only wanted to close zelle for venezuelans in venezuela, so under that concept the mailing adreess is the fist thing to look at, next in list should be IP (already avoided by venezuelans using US services) and next would be lack of SSN/ITIN on accounts, but that would hit a lot of venezuelans that are in US.

P.S Que hubo menor

Yeah, I had a friend that got the email from the bank about losing access to Zelle. He had a Venezuelan address in his account.

Another friend had a US address and never got the email.
