National Debit Card Network Reviews & Complaints

Outside Sales Team

Like Federated Payments, National Debit Card Network appears to employ a combination of telephone appointment setters and independently contracted outside sales agents to market its services. This combination is usually responsible for elevated complaint totals within the credit card industry. National Debit Card Network is no different, as we are currently able to locate more than 10 National Debit Card Network reviews that describe conditions similar to a standard industry “hiring mill.” This does not compare favorably to our list of best credit card processors.

Employee Complaints

The overwhelming majority of these National Debit Card Network complaints have been posted by former employees of National Debit Card Network and Volt Payments. Here is an excerpt from one such National Debit Card Network complaint:

ATTENTION – Volt Payments, www.voltpayments.com and National Debit Card Network, www.nationaldebitcardnetwork.com is a scam. These two companies are just a new façade for Federated Payment Systems, ran by Jon Levitt and Scott Avery. This is another pathetic attempt to hide from a disgusting reputation.

Federated Payments has 5 other company names on its doors. All in an attempt to defraud merchants and sales people. They will even go so low as to contact businesses who previously had accounts with Federated Payments and try to rekindle relationships under a different name. The tactic is simple: Federated Payments will close a merchant’s account. Either because the merchant gets fed-up with the lies or poor service, or Federated closes the account intentionally. They then charge a cancellation fee, and then pitch the very same merchant, but under a different name. Just look at the websites – all located at 2 Huntington Quad, 3rd Floor.

They do the same thing with sales people. They will send out mass emails to everyone who has ever worked for them, but under a different company name such as Volt Payments or National Debit Card Network and try to fool these sales people into selling for them again.

We can independently confirm that National Debit Card Network and Volt Payments were previously aggressively advertising sales positions on job search websites. These job listings do not mention the companies’ affiliations with each other or with Federated Payments. Similarly, the companies’ websites do not acknowledge that they are tied to one another despite the fact that they are all listed at the same address.

Other Sales Complaints

Other employee complaints mention an unprofessional work environment, poor employee support, bad leads, and delayed payouts. Employee complaints do not reflect positively on any company, and Federated Payments already has a negative reputation when it comes to its sales and marketing tactics. These factors incline us to assign National Debit Card Network a “C” in this section. If you suspect that National Debit Card Network is charging you undisclosed fees, we recommend seeking a third-party statement audit.
