I really really wanted to like Deel, when I was signing up it all seemed so perfect, like one of the most needed solutions out there any maybe they figured it out. Unfortunately the only thing they figured out is what to say to get you to sign up, once you are a customer they simply disappear. I have a small startup with a small team, we counted on Deel to help with HR & Payroll and were excited to partner with them. Since, we have had nothing but countless issues, they charged me fees for services I never received and worst of all they made up their own tax law and are withholding a large chunk of our payroll. These might be honest mistakes, the problem is there is nobody to talk to you. They can ignore your msgs for days on chat, I have emailed over 15 (!) individuals within the company, most never respond, the ones that do will apologize and tell me they are looking into it but nothing gets resolved, ever. I have ongoing issues that started in April, I get the same templated answers every time I try to follow up and that's in the rare event that someone acknowledges my emails.
My advise is to stay far away from this company, many businesses mess up but these guys won't own their mistakes or try to actually fix anything. There is no one to talk to but a team that will tell you they are working on your issues. As a startup we have many vendors, partners and companies we work with. Deel has been absolutely without a doubt the worst company I have dealt with in both my personal and business accounts. This is like a really bad car dealership, all nice before you buy, once you give them money you no longer exists.
I hope Deel greatly enjoys all the money they took from our company and that they at least feel good because we certainly don't.
