North American Bancard AKA Pay Anywhere Opens account, waits for you to process and holds your money.Internet

I have a similar situation on my hands with these scam artists. The opened my account and let me transact a total of over $8,000 all the while sending me emails stating that my funds were on their way. Then they closed my account and said they are keeping the funds for 180 days. This company is a SCAM!!

Hi,

I had a similar issue with Pay Anywhere. LLC.

My Report can be read here; http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/Pay-Anywhere/Troy-Michigan-48083/Pay-Anywhere-PayAnywherecom-NA-Bancard-Troy-Michigan-Unauthorised-fees-Troy-Michigan-1146631

I filed a calim with the Better Business Bureau, the next business day I received a call from Pay Anywhere.

They told me they would credit back the (fee) "as a good will gesture".

If and when I receive the money I am owed I will follow up with my claim .

If I do not receive the money owed I will file a motion with the court within my county.

They are only an hour away from my location, I would love to see them in court, I will even serve the papers myself.

Just a reminder to never do business with this (company).

I saw the rebuttal to this post from North American Bancard. I had the same issue with them a couple of years ago and i received the same rebuttal! My issue with them was never taken care of....costing me hundreds of dollars due to an issue about my NAB agent telling me there would be NO cancellation fees if i cancelled my merchant account. Apparently, this NAB agent did not 'record' this, thus the NAB corporate office charged me over $700 to cancel my account!  Dont they regulate what their agents say to 'honest' people like me who own a business and want to deal with a 'reputable' credit card company? OH My GOD!

They are complete SCAMMERS!

When i called in to them, all they wanted to do is talk to you about being able to 'maybe' lower their cancellation fees and other fees in order to prevent them from reporting you to the credit report agencies and thus destroying my good credit history.

UNBELIEVABLE! These ripoff reports 'validate' what this company is all about. Buyer Beware! DO NOT ever do business with this company! FYI: I am now with EXSCreditCardProcessing,com who did NOT screw me and provided me with much lower rates and a free credit card terminal...plus i did not have any long term contract to worry about any cancellation fees... Folks...simply 'google' the keyword 'North American Bancard ripoff or scam' and you will see what i am talking about! I am still streaming about what they did to me...

I am a victum of North American Bancard who is currently hold my money hostage. I have called 5 times and the last woman I spoke with tryed very hard to explain their right to hold my money "They needed to perform a business audit". Not happening friends,, they have no right. I have filed a complaint with the Texas Attorney General and I suggest all merchant victums do so in their own state and follow the advice given. I have also filed written complaints with Visa, Master Card and Discover. I no longer accept cards and my customers need it. Its theft on a grand (perhaps global) scale.

 Thank you for the post Michelle.  I have made more than two calls per week to your number and nothing is being done.  I was actually told at one point to have my customers call their banks and dispute them and that would get their money back.  Is that seriously a suggestion I should make to my customers?  Unfortunately at this point, I have had to get my attorney involved, we have sent you a certified letter demanding the funds be released or refunded to the customer by July 24.  I just hung up the phone with your company again, and you are refusing to do so.

I am now in the process of filing a complaint with the Minnesota and Michigan Attorney Generals Office.  Any chance I get, I am trying to spread the word about how you operate and what you have done.

I will state my point once again.  I can certainly understand that you have the right to cancel my account because you consider consulting and travel high risk, and you do not release the funds to me.  I cannot wrap my head around the fact that you are refusing to refund my customers cards until September.  So the only recourse is I refund them out of my pocket; so not only losing the revenue, but losing it twice.

I'm sorry, but the only thing to describe this is a con.  Judging by the reviews and comments on the internet, I am obviously not the only one to fall for it.  Hopefully I am the last.

Unfortunately, we are not able to locate your specific account based on your post, however I'd love to speak with you further regarding it.
