      On March 12 I disputed fraudulent charges to my wisely pay card for the amount of $173.75 for **** eats *************. They denied the dispute without a reason of any sorts, they closed my case and ablutely refuse to help any at all and will not reimburse me at all. I've never used **** eats at all. I've been trying daily to get my money back and to no avail. They know that a girl named shaniya who in their words has a different account but similar payment method made these charges yet they still refuse me my refund. All I seek is my money back as I didn't create this mess.

      Constantly harassed by this company. They have sent me a great number of email collection notices from an unattended email address with no way to get them to stop.Evidently, a business that I used to work for had some type of transaction that this company is wanting me to pay.I am not now, nor was I ever, any kind of owner of this company they are trying to collect from. I was only an employee. And it is my understanding the business this company is trying to collect from is out of business

      I was treated rude by a security guard at the front. Pulled on the door to go into an interview and he just stared, waited, then unlocked the door. Started to ask a serious of questions to then quiz me on the names of who would interview me first and last name. After giving a drivers license and having him write everything down, I waited to have an interview with completely different employees of the company. The guy was hunched over when I walked in looking down at the table when the other interviewer walked into the room with myself. I was told I was nervous over and over. He talked about the company and asked "why sales" in a serious of different questions. Then asked about a class that was 10 years ago. Never asked about previous courses before graduation. Asked when I graduated. Asked how my last job applied to the interview back in 2022, but nothing about my internship that was previous to the interview with ADP. My internship with a company that was never questioned and ended in 2025...again never questioned during the interview. The girl was quite except for when she talked about her position and asked questions about the sales course from 2016. They stepped out to talk then the girl came back to ****** me back downstairs. The same security guard proceeded to stair at me instead of unlocking the door to let me out. He waited for me to ask if it unlocks on its own and he rudely says in a condescending tone "NO" to then unlock the door. This interview was after being ignored the interview prior where the manager said "Yeah it's a good company to find somebody because this is where I found my husband and now we have a daughter Ally". Clearly I was contacted by the recruiter so they could have another interview just to say they "tried" after gaslighting myself.

It's a pattern. I need BBB help with getting my money returned.

      I had a wage garnishment for back taxes. Well once the taxes were paid off ADP took over $600 out of my pay check. Sent it to the tax people. I had talked to this joke of a company about it the first time they did it but they kept on taking money. God nows when I will get it back.

      Business Response

      Date: 07/14/2025

      ADP, Inc. (ADP) thanks the Better Business Bureau (BBB) for bringing the above-referenced matter to our attention. The consumer's employer utilizes ADP to disburse funds associated with the employers wage garnishment orders and to provide call center support services via phone and/or chat. 
      The consumer alleges the full amount of his debt was paid in full and that his wages are being over deducted for a garnishment order served on his employer. He alleges the order should be stopped and is owed a refund. 
      Upon hearing of the consumers complaint, ADP investigated the consumers case and found that the consumer had been deducted in accordance with the valid garnishment order(s) issued by Prince ******* County, ******** for a Tax Levy.  The consumer also misunderstands his employers role in the garnishment process.  His employer utilizes ADP to process their wage garnishment orders, disburse funds associated with those orders and provide call center and chat support services. ADP processed a state-issued wage garnishment order for his employer that legally requires them to withhold a portion of the consumers wages and remit those funds to pay the consumers debt to the creditor. Whether or not the debt is valid, his employer is legally required to comply with the garnishment order until the order is satisfied, or a termination order is received.
      ADP also confirmed and validated we did not receive a release until July ******* when it was faxed to ADP by the judgment creditor. We processed this release within 72 business hours and terminated the garnishment order accordingly and stopped further deductions.  ADP did not have any pending payments and was unable to issue any refund(s) back to the consumer. 
      The consumer can contact the creditor directly to confirm and validate any refund(s) he believes are owed to him to the contact information we have previously provided and are re-providing in this response for their convenience: Prince ******* County, ****************************** P.O. ****************************************************, **************. 
      We believe ADP acted appropriately in this matter and in attempting to address the consumers concerns. We again thank the Better Business Bureau for bringing this matter to our attention and allowing us the opportunity to respond.

      1) In June 2024, we opened a 401k plan with ADP.2) Per the representative's suggestion to know their platform better, we did a small test deposit and later reverted.3) No ************** ever happened on this 401k Plan. In Aug 2024, we informed ADP to cancel the plan.4) In Aug. 2024, ADP charged us $1500/- cancellation fee with a promise to cancel and close the plan by 10/31/20245) A cancellation information from our end was submitted6) ADP confirmed no further information needed and the plan was good to close. We do have documentation for this. Please see attached.7) ADP did not cancel the plan in Oct 2024 and continued charging monthly fees despite our multiple phone calls to them not to charge any further and cancel the plan.8) We believe we do not owe any unfair monthly fees for which now debt collection is initiated9) We are clueless here as to why ADP did not cancel the plan despite a cancellation charge of $1500 for no activity on the plan. 10) If ADP did not cancel the plan then why was the cancellation fee not reverted? We are clueless here. $1500 is a really big amount for us.11) We made several attempts to explain this to ADP representatives over phone and via email with no help from ADP to cancel the services and close the dispute.12)We called again to the client services team and explained all of the above. They have initiated new cancellation services. But, I have to wait again for 60 days. Two times I waited for 60 days. 13) Whenever I had explained the issue to the representatives all of them have always mentioned that we were being charged incorrectly, the services should have been cancelled long back. They could not do anything but their managers could help. However, cancellation never happened and the issue never got closed. 14) Even the debt collector agent agreed to my explanation and asked me to reach out to ADP and try again. We NEED YOUR HELP to cancel these services.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********. The issue resolution is still ongoing and not fully resolved yet. The plan is set to be terminated on Aug 29th. I am waiting until then to see plan truly terminates. In last one year, there were two 60 days windows when the plan was similarly set to terminate. However, the plan did not terminate despite a cancellation charge of $1500/-. and following a cancellation charge, monthly unfair fees in the name of admin fees for a $0 balance plan continued. Later, a debt collection was initiated for these unfair charges.

      Currently, I am working with ADP and in the middle of the process. The plan would terminate on Aug 29th per current process. The debt collection cancellation has not happened yet and I haven't received any documentation with that effect. Hence, I would wait until then to call that the customer issue is truly resolved. I would appreciate if BBB can help us to get $1500/- refund of cancellation fees since as you known cancellation never happened and we had to go through the mental stress, inconveneince, reaching out to several outside agencies for help for more than a year.
      Request BBB to keep the complaint open until its full resolution.

      Regards,

      ******* ******

      ADP's RUN division was our Payroll and 401K provider commencing 1/1/2024 and ending 12/31/2024. Previously we had used the firm ******* as our payroll and 401K provider. After executing the contract with ADP Run, we were informed that our 401K must remain until ADP Run's plan year commenced in June 2024. This required several unexpected manual transactions as ADP would calculate witholdings for our 401K but the funds had to be transferred to ******* until June 2024.During that period, ADP Run made certain entries related to our 401K account in our Accounting system for which ADP has no explanation. In addition, because we moved our account from ADP Run to ADP Total Source, ADP claims that they can't help us. We have repeatedly asked ADP for assistance in this regard with no clear answer. ADPs lack of response and support is at a minimum unprofessional. We seek explanation of each transaction to and from our account by ADP Run immediately.

      Worst customer support of any HRIS system around. We have over 500 employees and were sold on the Comprehensive services package of ADP moving over from isolved. It takes weeks to get payroll related issues resolved and that only happens with hours of sitting on hold trying to get someone on the phone who knows what they are doing. They regularly break the labor laws which we as administrators then have to run in circles trying to fix or pay additionally out of pocket for to be compliant. I would not reccomend anyone going to this service.

      I have worked for Work Market Talent for 8 years. The contract work for services is for other vendors on the platform. All work orders have terms for approval time after the work is done. I have completed work under the agreement of 7 day terms as listed on the order. The vendor refuses to honor 7 day terms stating that there policy is 36 -45 days and then 7 days after this. It is not plainly stated on the work order and Work market platform supervisor always take the side of the Vendor. All the technicians are complaining because of deceitful practices. Techs have to spend time and money to do these jobs and then always holding up money for the jobs. We need an advocate because working day to day is costly and these foreign companies are giving work and then closing down or changing their name in order to not p a y us. Please look into these guys.

      We are in receipt of the escalation submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ***** ***** and appreciate the Better Business Bureau for forwarding the same to Automatic Data Processing, **** (ADP).  By way of background, ADPs WorkMarket platform is a self-service tool that independent contractors such as Mr. ***** can find and complete work with a variety of clients. The independent contractors that are paid through the WorkMarket platform are solely independent contractors of the client and are paid at the direction of the client. 

      WorkMarket is a platform to connect independent workers and clients, and any agreements made between the client and independent contractor are at the discretion of the two parties. The platform provides independent contractors visibility into the approval times of the client and client payment terms must be accepted prior to taking on an assignment. The client Mr. ***** has taken issue with in his Better Business Bureau complaint has a 7-day payment term whereby the payment is due 7 days from the client approving the completed assignment.  These payment terms were accepted by Mr. ***** when he accepted the assignment.  Whether and when an assignment is approved is completely controlled by the client and WorkMarket is in no way involved in the same.  Indeed,  the approval of an assignment is at the sole discretion of the client and is generally based on their requirements to confirm the work has been completed. 

      As of today, the assignment is pending approval from the client and is within their average approval period an average approval period that Mr. ***** had visibility into at the time he accepted the assignment.  We would encourage Mr. ***** to engage with the company directly should he have any concerns.

      In response to BBB Complaint
      ID 23494431:

      Preston Aguilar’s complaint expresses
      concerns about the holiday of Juneteenth and its effect on his pay.  As a reminder, Juneteenth is a federal
      holiday and as such, the central bank that regulates the US financial system is
      closed. Mr. Aguilar should connect with his employer to confirm the timing of his
      pay, as it would be dictated by when his employer processed payroll with ADP.  Mr. Aguilar’s employer can certainly call
      upon their ADP Service team should they need any assistance in helping Mr.
      Aguilar with this inquiry and if they have any concerns.  However, as Mr. Aguilar is not a client, but
      rather an employee of an ADP client, we are unable to assist with his inquiry
      directly.

      Thank you,
      Christine/ADP Client

This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
