Tank you for calling.

The initial AI response I got from Planet Support was incorrect and created even more confusion. However, less than an hour later I was called up by Federica who was kind and very helpful. We resolved the issue in minutes.

Planet Payment is a complicit actor in…

Planet Merchant Services SAS is utilizing unverified data streams and attempting to obstruct statutory data rights to protect merchant processing revenue. As the primary cardholder for Capital One transaction Case 260604161950152, I initiated a formal GDPR Article 15 Data Subject Access Request (DSAR). Planet's frontline administration initially attempted an illegal baseline rejection under Case 02926483, falsely claiming they have no data obligations because I am "not a direct commercial customer."The official Visa Resolve Online (VROL) rebuttal packet (Case 2653979494) completely exposes this claim. The network logs show Planet actively processing and transmitting my personal transactional data on June 9, 2026. This data transaction occurred weeks AFTER their merchant client, CABINN Hotels, certified to us in writing that my personal data was permanently deleted and anonymized. Under GDPR Article 17(3)(e), data cannot be manipulated or selectively purged during an active financial claim.Planet's Privacy division has since been forced to step in, overriding their support desk to acknowledge my statutory rights while demanding strict statement verification parameters under Article 12(6). This identity check was fully cleared directly from my account email on July 1st, alongside explicit metadata disclosure demands for full database dumps.Instead of fulfilling this active 30-day legal clock, Planet's teams have spent their corporate hours flagging consumer reviews to suppress public visibility. This systemic failure regarding transparency, accurate data mapping, and the processing of compromised merchant records has been formally reported to the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) and the Danish Datatilsynet for cross-border regulatory enforcement. Clean up your internal compliance disarray, stop abusing the flagging tool, and fulfill the active data audit.

We had issue to understand if the starting processing

We had issue to understand if the integration between Nexi (our provider) and Datatrans/Weareplanet was done since we had transactions declined. Mahran took time in explaining and providing information regarding the new process which is new for us.

Dear Erik,
Thank you for your feedback. We understand your frustration and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
We would like to clarify that the matter is currently dependent on the third-party integrator involved in the solution and therefore is not fully within Planet's control. While we are actively following up and coordinating with all parties to help move the case forward, certain actions and timelines depend on the integrator's investigation and resolution process.
Please be assured that we remain engaged and will continue to work closely with the integrator to achieve a resolution as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
