After approving my business and allowing me to begin processing transactions, PaymentCloud abruptly closed my merchant account without adequate explanation. At the time of closure, I had already accepted several legitimate credit card payments from approved customers.Immediately following the closure, my access to the online merchant portal was restricted. I am unable to review transaction history, access account statements, or obtain a copy of my merchant agreement. This lack of access prevents me from verifying any alleged contractual terms or reviewing the status of my processed transactions.Subsequently, I received an email stating that early termination fees would be charged to my account. I was not made aware of any early termination penalties at the time of onboarding, nor am I currently able to verify the terms of the agreement due to the restriction of my account REMOVEDaddition, PaymentCloud is currently holding funds from approved and successfully processed credit card sales. These transactions were authorized and completed in good faith. The continued withholding of these funds is causing financial harm to my REMOVEDconcerns are as follows:Account closure without transparent justification.Immediate restriction of portal access, preventing contract and transaction review.Imposition of early termination fees without prior clear disclosure.Ongoing withholding of legitimately processed funds.Initial Complaint

Over the past months of April, May, and June we have been providing services and receiving payments totaling $4,386.76 through PaymentCloud. Despite no client complaints, we have only received delays regarding resolution of this payment. This leaves us uncertain if or when the payment will be released, so we are requesting a more definitive timeline for the release of funds owed.Additionally, we are still being charged for a service we are not receiving and demand a refund of $347.85 for these incorrect charges. We provided the services in good faith and have not received the expected payment nor explanation for the delays. We expect prompt resolution of both the pending payment and refund of incorrect charges.Business Response

During the months spanning April through August, PaymentCloud continued to bill REMOVEDfor a service they failed to deliver since May, acting as a payment processor. Even in the present month, these charges persist, despite our explicit request to terminate the agreement. We insist on a reimbursement totaling $566.3 for these erroneous fees. We engaged in this arrangement with genuine trust, but unfortunately, we have not received the anticipated service or any clarification regarding these charges. We anticipate a REMOVEDand the reimbursement of the incorrect fees.Business Response

We have not nor have we ever charged complainant any fees. We are a service provider and the complainant's merchant bank is the only party authorized by the complainant to charge them fees. As a show of good faith, we would be willing to pay $250.00 to settle this matter in full against Paymentcloud. This would allow complainant to pursue other remedies again its processor/merchant bank.Initial Complaint

Paymentcloud is a merchant service provider and as such has never had control of complainant's funds. That process is controlled by the complainant's merchant bank, REMOVED. They will hold the funds for REMOVEDthe merchant services agreement the parties signed. We will assist the merchant as best we can, but really we are powerless to mandate earlier distribution of said funds.Customer Answer
