Among other services Paylocity is supposed to provide us with quarterly reports for the purposes of compliance with governmental taxing authorities. Last quarter one of the state returns was incomplete. Paylocity failed to provide a complete report after repeated requests. This quarter (year end) Paylocity provided reporting for one of our businesses that is almost completely wrong. The report for another business has been provided at all. **************** has not been helpful and is only offering a possible correction of these failures after legally mandated filing deadlines have passed, which would be of absolutely no use.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that the resolution I received elsewhere is satisfactory to me.I was forced to confer with our ******************** who contacted Paylocity's sales/implementation team. Our issues were then resolved within 2 days. If things had been left with customer service, I have serious doubts our issue would have been resolved in time to be useful for meeting legally mandated tax filing deadlines. I do not feel things should have had to have been so exceedingly difficult or that it should have been necessary for our top management to become involved.

I have been on the phone, as we speak, with **************** Associate Tamike, for 92 plus minutes, who advised me I did not have an HRA card on this account. I advised her that Paylocity assigned me a card ending in **** and is ready to be activated. She then advised it was not ready to be shipped. no further steps or advisement provided. Please advise on how to proceed to obtain my HRA card or who I can contact to escalate this matter.In addition, I have attempted to validate online and with ****** my HRA account for direct deposit. I have I confirmed the amount deposited to be .68 and ****** confirmed correct amount. However my account continues to not be activated. Where are my payments, how are they issued. I can not add a bank as online just goes to my direct deposit page and does not allow me to add a bank.I would like to be reimbursed for the payments that were recieved, processed and approved and paid. Where are my payments.Business Response

I was laid off from Austin ********** on October 31 ****. I filed for Cobra via their third party HR provider Paylocity on December 10. They took two payments totaling $934.00. Upon speaking to the insurance provider ********** of *****, they have not received my reinstatement for Cobra and have reached out 3 times. Paylocity is saying all paperwork was submitted but unable to offer any case or inquiry number which ********** gives to every account. I currently have 7 recorded phone calls and case calls with ********** ***** and two of theirs speaking with Paylocity. Paylocity is now telling me they do not have my money and are unable to do anything else to assist me upon asking for a refund and cancelation of my cobra service which has not been put into action.Business Response

We have been using paylocity to process our payroll since October 2022. There have been major issues getting our company set-up correctly.The lastest issue I have been working with them on for the past 2 weeks involves our **2 forms.The information is incorrect on the **2's for employees who have pre-tax medical deductions and Simple *** deductions. The corresponding codes on the **2's are incorrect. I have had at least 3 service team members plus our account manager tell me that the codes are not important and also that the **3 form is not looked at by the *** and doesn't need to match.I have been processing payroll for 30+ years and know that information is incorrect.They cannot or will not fix the **2 issues and have now made then available to my employees. Since this information is incorrect it might cause issues to either the employee or my company.This is my #1 complaint right now. The # 2 is that the payroll processed on 12/28/22 took the employee direct deposits out of their bank accounts. I told the service rep that it was going to process the wrong way and he assured me that it would not. This is a much longer complaint and I can provide more details.It is of the utmost urgency that I get the **2's information corrected. I need to know how to contact someone that supervises my contact.I have manyBusiness Response

Our home health care agency operates ***** sole proprietors including ********** which we file weekly and bi-weekly payrolls. We signed 2 contracts in 2019 1st for ********** and then 2nd for the small sole proprietors which would be covered under the 2nd. Our account has been drafted with different rates without an updated contract. I have asked repeatedly to reflect back to our contract and honor the rates and credit our account for the fees. An example of the fees are not giving a 60 day notice. Well as I stated we are a home health care agency and death does not come with an expiration date. So that is difficult to do.I want to discuss this and many other fees , issues and short comings that haven't been addressed .With multiple companies I feel that direct communication is required.Business Response

On November 4th, 2022, I initiated an On-Demand transaction through Paylocity. for $200. I had used this service many times with Paylocity. The nature of the service is such that you can request amounts of up to $500 and receive that amount the following business day. That amount would then be deducted from your next paycheck. However, the funds were never sent to my bank account. I checked with my bank, and they had zero record of any such initiation of the transaction from Paylocity. On Paylocity, it showed the request as "Completed". Paylocity support would not speak with me. They would only speak with the HR department of my employer. Once my HR representative reach out to them, they began investigating the issue. They claimed there was no trace information of the transaction, despite the fact they admitted to seeing the transaction was marked "Complete".When my paycheck was posted, it had $201.25 deducted. The additional $1.25 was from the On-Demand fee. I never received my $200 request, yet they deducted it from my paycheck. After having my HR representative inform them of this additional complication, they went silent. They have not communicated, been responsive, or shown any desire to remedy this situation. Essentially, Paylocity owes me $201.25 of money that I worked hard to earn.Business Response

Hello - *****'s employer, Adventure Forest LLC, has connected with Paylocity Service team to review this complaint and resolve the missing funds from the OnDemand payment that did not process. Our Service team is communicating with ******************* as on November 9th, we were able to find the requested ******** payment and requested a tracer to find where the money went. Our tracer did not find the transaction, and ***** did confirm that his bank did not see a transaction initiated or returned. We are continuing to work to resolve this matter directly with the Employer and Employee.
