I read you're in the hospitality business, did a whole bunch of people cancel/chargeback because of the omicron covid wave, maybe? Just trying to see if there's any reason Stripe may have picked this moment to kill your contract with them rather than any other.
From a business perspective I can see why the timing sucks but this week is just another week, especially with Christmas and NY falling in the weekend. Companies generally try not to pull these stunts around (American) holidays, but there's nothing more special about this week than there is about next week or the week before. You can't expect Stripe to turn off their fraud department for two weeks because it makes the flagged companies sad.
