"I completed the verification, I waited a day or two and messaged Shieldpay to confirm the verification had gone through, I submitted my maiden name account but the Law firm had my married name so it wouldn’t verify. However this was easily rectified by Shieldpay who sent me another link. Payment was received within 72 hrs. Highly recommend."

Mollie Hall

"My solicitor advised that Shieldpay would be in touch to issue payment for a group action settlement.
I was promptly contacted via email with a link to their secure website to verify my bank details, which I did. Within 24 hours the money was in my account.
Thank you Shieldpay!"
