About Google Pay

Earlier, Google Pay was known as Tez. Tez digital wallet was almost same as its current version, G Pay, but it's was not performing well. Once Google has changed its mind to give it a new name Google Pay, everything has changed for that wallet. Its popularity has increased dramatically and within few days of change it got thousands of new installations.

It's a magic of the brand name, Google. Tez was also offering the same payment solutions and features but failed to lure users. Therefore, Google has come up with this brand new name. And as of now, it's one of the top digital wallet apps in India.

A few months ago, users were not able to contact to the support team of the app by calling to Google Pay customer care number because G Pay had cancelled its direct phone call support service. But for users convenience Google Pay customer care number helpline number 18004190157 is again available.

You can also talk to G Pay customer care service agent by requesting for a callback. After requesting a call, wallet's support team will call you shortly.

If your Google Pay transaction has been failed but your money got deducted or payee has not received the payment yet then you can contact Google Pay support by following the steps give in this post.

Before that, I have discussed some frequent problems Google Pay users face with solutions.

Why is my Google Pay transaction failing?

Users need to understand Google Pay app is just a payment solution that facilitates transactions through its Google Pay Service. Google Pay does not receive the funds you send. It just creates a secure link between sender and receiver or other merchants. To facilitate transactions, it uses Payment System Provider Services such as Bill Desk.

Once you make a payment, it redirects you to payment system provider's server. During the transaction, server may face connection issues or may get disconnected. Sometimes it happens exactly when server is trying to authenticate the transaction and due to disconnection transaction fails but its server receives the payment.

Once it happens, server automatically creates a Google Pay refund process and it reverts back the money deducted within standard 3 days working period.

But as mentioned earlier, in some rare cases, manually Google Pay complaint needs to be raised to get the deducted money. Therefore, users have to submit a complaint with Gpay to get his refund.

I assume now you understood why did your Google Pay transaction failed. Now next question is how to get it back?

Very easy!

Wait for 7 working days (usually money gets back automatically) and then submit a complaint or talk to Google Pay support team.

Before that, you should know when can you contact G Pay support team.

When can you contact Google Pay customer care?

  1. If you have made a payment and after three working days receiver has not received the payment then you can contact to your wallet's team to get Google Pay transaction refund. Note: Payments may take up to 3 working days to in reflect in payee's account. So be patient, don't rush.
  2. If your Google Pay UPI transaction failed, but money deducted from your bank account then after 7 days waiting period, you can contact to G Pay customer care department. Note: Within 7 working days your money will be sent back to your account from which it's deducted. If it does not happen then you're free request a call from Google Pay customer care number.
  3. After 7 days waiting period, user can raise a dispute by going to his transaction history (we'll discuss it next). Once dispute is raised, within 7 working days money will be refunded.

Once a Google Pay transaction fails what are you suppose to do?

  • From your Google Pay wallet app, at the bottom of the screen, tap on All Transactions then check status of your transaction. It will be either 'Success' or 'Failed'.
  • If your transaction status is 'Success' then within three days recipient will get the money. Or if status is 'Failed' then money will be put back to your account within a week as per Google Pay refund policy. You may also see third status 'Processing' which means server is still working on your transaction.
  • If transaction status is 'failed or success' and within the waiting period your money did not come back or recipient didn't receive it then first check your back account status. Try to know if money really debited from your account or not. Also, ask the recipient to check did he receive the money? Sometimes, due to server issues, customers do not receive credit and debit alerts.
  • If money has not been credited back to your account then you can report the transaction or in simple words register a Google Pay complaint.
