So you find it more convenient to switch to a totally different money sending service than to just download a separate app?

- bootcampwhere 6y agoYes.
- Aeolun 6y agoIn the long run? I’d expect so.
- acdha 6y agoLeave now and avoid the rush when they cancel it

- techntoke 6y agoSo what if it is cancelled one day? You lose like a few minutes of your time and then complain that no one else offers something as good?
- esperent 6y agoBy downloading another app you also get the advantage of not using Google and not having your data mined for advertising/the service randomly cancelled on a whim.
- techntoke 6y agoGoogle has a lot of opt out controls to prevent personalized advertising. Other services are doing a lot worse. Google Pay is instant when using a debit/credit card and has great support. Setup is a breeze so even if it is canceled one day, which there is no indication of it happening soon, you really aren't losing anything.
- Broken_Hippo 6y agoInstead, you are simply giving it to another company when Google probably already has a lot of information. Even if they start out not taking any more information than they need to (which, being a money app, probably is a decent amount of information), I don't trust any company to stay this way. Other companies shut down and sell off to larger places too, so you aren't exactly off the hook there. Slews of apps have done this. You are simply aware of some of googles' stoppages, in no small part because you might have used a couple or because they get publicity for longer.
