I covered a $214 dinner for six people and my phone has been completely silent for four days
A 30–60 second vertical video script about covering a group dinner for six, sending out Reclaim requests, and discovering the most satisfying thing about the app: a push notification every time someone actually pays — so instead of obsessively refreshing Venmo, you just wait for the ping.
I covered dinner for six people and now my phone is silent and I have nothing to show for it except a $214 charge on my credit card 1.
Everyone was like "oh yeah just Venmo me after" and I said sure and then I sent six separate requests and it's been four days and I've heard from two people. Two. Out of six.
One of them just bought a new Lululemon set. I saw it on her stories. Another one literally posted his coffee order this morning — oat milk, two shots, the fancy cup. Six dollars. So he has six dollars. He just doesn't have six dollars for me.
I started using this app called Reclaim to send all the requests, which honestly I should have done from the jump. But here's the thing I didn't know it did — every time someone actually pays you, it sends you a push notification. Like a little ping. "Jamie paid." "Marcus paid."
I cannot explain how satisfying that is when you've been quietly refreshing your Venmo for four days. You're not checking anymore. You're just waiting for the ping. And it hits different when it shows up out of nowhere at 11pm. Turns out Marcus had the money all along, he just needed a reminder sitting in his phone.
Four down. Two to go. The app knows who hasn't paid. I know who hasn't paid. Everyone's just waiting to see who blinks first.
