According to the GoFundMe help section, you should be able to change your email address by following these steps:
  • sign in to GoFundMe at gofundme.com/sign-in;
  • select the three lines at the top of your screen (if you're on the GoFundMe app, tap your initials button in the top right corner instead);
  • select 'Account settings' from the drop-down menu;
  • change your email and click 'Save Settings' at the bottom of the screen;
  • confirm your new email using the verification message that is sent to the new address.

According to Gofundme FAQs there are several reasons for your funds being on hold:
  • If your email address has not been verified before 14 days of your first donation, donations to your fundraiser will be paused. To accept donations again, search for the email titled “Verify Your GoFundMe Email” and confirm your email address.
  • Update fundraiser information.
  • The fundraiser is under review.

Please, contact Gofundme customer service via live chat for further information.

Unfortunately, Gofundme does not provide any information about why they do not support Syria as well as how you can find a person in one of the supported countries to raise money for you instead on the company website.
To get more information about the Gofundme services, please contact the Gofundme customer care team for assistance:
  • via the company's social networks.

Support is provided:

According to Gofundme FAQs once your GoFundMe starts receiving online donations, you can easily request a withdrawal at any time. Click ‘Withdraw’ while logged into your account and follow the instructions. You can withdraw your balance directly to your bank account. Bank transfers take 2-5 business days to arrive.

Why have I not received my refund it has been seven days

With Company Response

0
1 comment

It's important to note, refunds for donations made to most campaigns can take up to 7 business days to return to the card used. In some cases, refunds can take up to 10 business days and may appear in the form of a reversal, where the original charge drops off your card statement rather than a separate credit coming through. We certainly want you to receive your refund promptly and in full - if you still haven't received your refund, our team is here to help get that settled for you. Kindly reach out to us from the email tied to your donation, here: http://www.gofundme.com/contact

Step daughter took the go fund money

How do i go about getting back? It was 2,723.

Myself and my sister in law paid for everything.

My stepdaughter spent the money on car payments and a new apartment for her family. I don’t feel she was entitled to it seeing she didn’t spend a thing on his funeral!!

Why did gofundme delete my account

I deserve a reason why gofundme deleted my account. My account information was legitimate and the donator was too. gofundme just deleted my account for no reason.
