Unfortunately, I am very disappointed with the tail end of my experience with Meritcard. I have sent about 15+ emails and called half a dozen times to get clarification on a charge that was made to my account. I simply asked for documentation that I signed where I agreed to such charge and they have been radio silent after stating they would send me such documentation. Totally bummed after 4+ years of using them. If I agreed to it, all good. I would accept it, but right now it just seems like a fraudulent charge. Would have totally recommended or used them again for future business endeavors but now, I would say stay away. Personal opinion.
STAY AWAY!!!!! Run for your lives and for the sake of your business. I processed through these guys and they give you the run around and have terrible terrible customer service. It has taken over a week to receive funds from accounts we processed 6 days ago. I call to find out why and they cant even tell me why. They told me they needed “Authorization verification” so I spent an entire day getting together paperwork and tracking down agreements of clients I have had for years to “verify”. Later I was told I didnt need to do that and that I would receive partial funds but not my AMX of over $5k.
These guys cant tell which way is up. DO NOT trust your merchant funds with such an irreputable company; you will be at risk of terrible customer service and a lack of competence that is unparalleled in the industry. RUN, RUN, RUN!!
