 I would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.  Please let me know if you have any questions or require any additional information. At this time, EMS will consider this matter closed.Sincerely,[redacted]Director of Client Services800-[redacted]

January 22, 2016[redacted]Re:  Revdex.com Claim [redacted]Dear Mr. [redacted],We unsuccessfully attempted to reach you by phone. This letter is to confirm your merchant processing account has been closed.  Regarding the fees...

on your account, there was activity on your October statement for which you are responsible.  However, with no activity in November, EMS has initiated an $80 refund back to you.  Since your account was closed in December, there were no fees associated with the account.  I would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.At this time, EMS will consider this matter closed.  Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.Sincerely,Jon C.

May 5, 2015[redacted]Re:  Revdex.com Claim [redacted]Dea[redacted],In response to your inquiry, EMS creates a company profile for all of our merchants.  The issue is the result of the information you had provided to us during the...

application process.  You had stated that your average ticket is $100 and your average monthly volume is $250.  With said information considered, EMS assigned a monthly volume cap of $1000, four times what you had disclosed on your application.  EMS also reviewed your actual processing history.  Volume in January was $91, February was $0, and March was $308.39. Naturally a $3,090.00 transaction raises some red flags.  Based on the information you had provided and your actual processing history, EMS has made a business decision to hold these funds until all chargeback rights expire, protecting both you and EMS from a significant chargeback issue.  Please let me know if you have any questions or require any additional information. At this time, EMS will consider this matter closed.Sincerely,Jon ** B[redacted]Director of Client Services[redacted]

January 28, 2016[redacted]Re:  Revdex.com Claim [redacted]Dear Mr. [redacted],As we continue to work through the issue, EMS has agreed to release an additional $23,904.06 of your desired settlement.  We will continue...

to hold the remaining $20,000.00 in reserve until all charge back rights have expired to mitigate our exposure.   Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any additional questions or concerns. At this time, EMS will consider this matter closed.Sincerely,Jon C. B[redacted]Director of Client Service 800-615-1330 x2882

April 6, 2016[redacted]Re:  Revdex.com Claim [redacted]Dear Mr. [redacted],Thank you for taking the time to speak with Stacy S[redacted] in our Retention department.  This letter is to confirm that your EMS processing accounts have been closed...

without penalty or early termination fee.  Also, [redacted] Leasing has cancelled your leases and you will be receiving a separate letter from them.  I would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.  Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns. At this time, EMS will consider this matter closed.Sincerely,Jon C.

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted].  Although I have received correspondence from EMS indicating that they have closed my account without penalty, at present (May 31, 2016), my account remains open and reserve funds have not been refunded.  This may be scheduled to transpire today, the last day of the month.  I received an email today from Jon B[redacted] informing me that he needed to consult with another department and that it would take him "a day or two" to get me an update.  The lack of communication from EMS has been astonishing.  It appears as though they only communicate when it's the last option available.  I will consider this complaint to be resolved when my account is closed and all reserve funding returned.  Sincerely,
Paul L[redacted]

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
When I signed up for their service it asked some basic questions about my business and average ticket sales. At no time until this problem did they ever inform or notify me there would be any sort of limit on the amount I could charge, let alone a limit for the entire month. Had I known this at any point I would not have signed up with them or I would have cancelled immediately after finding this out. Then to find out that after they hold the entire amount until the next month they would only release the amount of your monthly limit and hold the remainder for 90 days. I don't know of anyone in their right mind that would agree to these terms, and I'm sure that is why they do not disclose them to customers until the issue arises. They claim they are making a "business decision" to hold funds for 90 days without approval is theft. I never agreed to these terms and therefore they have stolen my money. Please check previous complaints filed against this company and you will see this is a habitual complaint against them. That alone should be proof enough they never disclosed their money retention practices to me or any other customer. By doing this they are practicing under false pretenses and therefore committing fraud.
