Hi on or about January 17th ******************************************** Walmart. The order was for a grocery order delivered to my home. Because of a medical emergency the delivery driver had the order canceled. I placed the order again the next morning and this caused an overdraft on my account bcz I assumed when the order was canceled the charges would be too. Now 3 weeks later after losing $100 for overdraft fees and speaking to 4 representatives of Telecheck I still am not able to cash checks for my online grocery orders. During the attempts to get this problem resolved I have been lied to by these representatives. I keep getting the scripted response that my account will be updated or the system is being updated and I should try and place the order in 24 to 48 hours.Business Response

RE: BBB Complaint No. ******** / ***** *******
Dear Ms. ***************** you for speaking with me on February 11, 2025 and providing your bank account information to allow me to research
and locate the transactions in question. As we discussed, TeleChecks records do not reflect any declines on transactions
associated with your new bank account. As we also discussed, the online orders were stopped by *******, and were not sent
to TeleCheck for approvals.
After our call, I submitted this issue to ******* for research. ******* advised that you re-enroll your bank account with *************** either through the ******* app or website. The previous cancelled order caused a break in communication between
******* and your bank, so re-enrolling should restore your ability to place orders online with *******. You may want to
confirm your re-enrollment with ******* and Pay by Bank prior to submitting another check, checking account payment, or
debit transaction.
We believe this resolves your issue, but if you have any additional questions or concerns, please call me directly at (240) 849-

This complaint is against *** Debt Collections for improper debt collection practices that have significantly affected my financial wellbeing and credit score. I receive daycare assistance from the state, which sometimes causes delays in payment processing. My daycare is aware of this and usually only charges my card $12.50 for my weekly co-pay, understanding that the state will backdate payments for any missed weeks. However, on October 7, 2024, the daycare charged my card $324 for a full weeks service, despite our agreement that the state payment would cover it retroactively. I disputed this charge with my bank, believing it to be invalid. After disputing the charge, I spoke with the daycare director, who was not aware that *** was pursuing me. The director confirmed that the state had issued checks to cover my costs, and it was agreed that I would receive half of the $324 as a refund while the other half would apply to my outstanding balance. As of January 8, 2025, I have not received any refund, nor has my account been credited correctly. *** continues to pursue me for the full $324. I confirmed with the daycare that there is no outstanding balance on my account; in fact, I have a credit. The only evidence provided by *** is a Check Authorization Detail from TeleCheck, which inaccurately categorizes the $324 charge as a recurring payment. My recurring payment has always been $12.50, and any changes would require prior confirmation. I am concerned that *** has not demonstrated proper resolution of this issue. Additionally, they have incorrectly reported this collection on my credit report, threatening my perfect payment history and credit score. I request the BBB's intervention to address the following: Immediate removal of the collection from my credit report.Confirmation from *** Debt Collections that the matter is resolved and I owe nothing further.A review of TRS Debt Collections practices to prevent similar issues for other customers.Thank you.Business Response

This is an attempt to collect a debt.
Any information obtained will be used for that purpose.
SEE ENCLOSED FOR OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Dear ***************************** Services, **** (TRS) received your BBB complaint in regards to the reference number mentioned above. TRS
regrets any inconvenience or confusion you have experienced in our attempt to recover the above referenced item, a payment
that returned from the bank unpaid because there was a stop payment on a ************************* checking account
ending in 2840.
1 Once the item returned unpaid, TeleCheck paid Tutor Time for the item as part of its warranty, and TeleCheck
assigned it to TRS for collection. We previously provided you validation for the item on December 30, 2024.
2
Our understanding from your letter/s is that you are not disputing whether the item in fact cleared your account. Your belief is
that you had worked out a different payment arrangement with the school and so should not have been charged the $324.00
payment. When we received the above complaint, we contacted the Tutor Time to ask this. The Director of Tutor Time,
however, told us that this was a misunderstanding on your part and that the debt was in fact valid. Our understanding, further,
is that the Director would speak with you and answer any questions you might have about the situation.

Finally, please note TRS does not report to any of the major credit reporting agencies, specifically Experian, **********, or

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
I received your mailed response yesterday and the only positive out of it is that you do not report to the credit bureaus, however, I am not a dishonest person and I pay my bills. According to your response, the director of the daycare informed you that this was an error on my part and that the monies owed is completely valid, which is absolutely not true as I have spoken with all office staff and have statements showing how the payment for the month of October ended up working itself out. I will attempt to explain this again since I tried calling the senior processing specialist in the letter but have yet to have my call returned.1. I receive daycare assistance from the ******************************* and have been receiving this assistance for almost 6 years now between both my children. Due to high volumes of cases, understaffing, and budget cuts, there are months when the assistance funds are delayed up to a week. This is nothing new, and I have been an established customer with my daycare for a couple years now and have never had this problem.
2. I have a bank account on file in order for automatic weekly payments for my co-pay, which is $12.50/wk.
3. Without my permission, I was charged $324 for a single week in October because DES was late on sending the check.
4. Upon discovering this misunderstanding, I contacted the daycare center and disputed the charge with my bank (only disputed because at the time I was not sure what the charge was for because the amount is substantially higher than my usual weekly amount).
5. When speaking with the director of the center trying to figure out what happened, I learned that DES was late, but that they had eventually received the check a couple days later, which covered the entire month of October.
6. After speaking with the director, I decided not to follow thru with the bank dispute, did NOT sign the authorization to move forward with the dispute and did NOT receive a refund from my bank. Because I was told it would take up to 10 weeks to receive the money back from telecheck, I opted to leave the money and have it reflect as a credit on my account to pay my copays.
7. According to the letter I just received from ***, you stated that per your warranty policy, you paid the $324 when notice was received that I had disputed the transaction, sending it to the daycare. Again, the dispute was never resolved resulting in a refund to my account because I did not follow thru.
Conclusion: this cannot be a misunderstanding on my part because I have provided all the proper documentation to support the facts I have just laid out. The daycare received payment from ******************************* as well as your company. The daycare was double paid, triple if you count my direct payment before it was given back as a credit to my account. The daycare should be the one returning your money, not me. I will not pay over $700 for 1 week of daycare because of this.
You have my contact information, I want this matter closed and out of collections immediately.

January 14, ************************** *************************************************** RE: BBB Complaint No. ******** / ************************************************************* has received your BBB complaint regarding a check decline that you received at Rural King. We would like to apologize for any inconvenience, embarrassment, or frustration this decline has caused. For background, TeleCheck is a check acceptance and check processing company which works with merchants nationwide who wish to accept payment by check. For many merchants, TeleCheck also provides warranty services. As part of its services, TeleCheck evaluates, and processes check payments at the point of sale for its merchant clients by evaluating transactions against its database. If TeleCheck accepts a check, it guarantees payment to the merchant even if the check returns unpaid for some reason.1 TeleCheck will decline a check when there are negative items associated with a check writer in its database (a Code 4 decline) or when a statistical analysis of the check and the transaction indicates a greater risk that a check will not clear than a merchant is willing to accept.2 In those instances, TeleCheck will issue a Code 3 decline.3 With the information in your complaint, we were able to locate the transaction in question and the Trace ID associated with it --- *********************** -- which was processed on an *************************** checking account ending in 0757. TeleCheck issued a Code 3 decline for this transaction because of a high level of recent activity associated with this checking account. We have also made some modifications to your information in our system which we believe will reduce the likelihood of future Code 3 declines. Our records reflect no check transactions with TeleCheck merchants since we made those adjustments. While we have done our best to respond to the issues you have raised, if you have any additional questions or concerns, or if you experience any other declines, please call me directly at ************** or by email at ************************** You may also contact our ******************** at ************** Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET. This would be the best time to reach a supervisor if additional assistance is necessary. PLEASE NOTE ALL RETURN CORRESPONDENCE MUST EITHER REFERENCE THE TRACKING NUMBER ABOVE OR INCLUDE A COPY OF PRIOR CORRESPONDENCE RECEIVED FROM TELECHECK. 1 While a merchant remains free to accept a check even if TeleCheck declines to accept it, TeleCheck will not provide a warranty. 2 A Code 3 is not reported to third-party consumer reporting agencies and in no way reflects negatively on a consumers credit status. TeleCheck does not have access to a check writers account and does not verify account balances as part of the processing services it provides. 3 For further information about TeleCheck or if you would like to request your TeleCheck File Report please visit: **********************************************************************************, or call TeleChecks ******************** at *************** to request that a form be mailed to you. 4 The decline was issued at Rural King on January 3, 2025, for a transaction in the amount $695.26 (check number 1455).

[Please type your response here.]
I do understand that telecheck wants to put a blanket apologize on this incident of January ****** but I believe they did not address another issue that effected my incident on January 3rd I wrote a check (that I purchased with my own money) to pay for a sale from rural king and as a 3rd party company telecheck has the authority to reject my check which they did and on top of that they froze my checks from my bank for 24 hours I'm sorry but last I knew I am a United States citizen in a free country. Who gives telecheck the authority to have the power to go my bank and me to say when and how much I am aloud to spend of my own hard working money and on top of that who gives the authority to telecheck to control the business of how much they can profit because the business lost $695.26 sales that day and the consumer lost there freedom to buy in a free country I thought in ************* you are incident until proven guilty I got punished before I was guilty in this case and I was never guilty but I got charged it kinda sounds like we live in a country that controls are sales and purchases (kinda like a dictatorship. Who is actually in charge of telecheck? *****?? I don't know but it makes you wonder) they really seem to have some power. I really believe we as United States citizens we have to stand up and fight for our freedoms and we should fight for what is right. Telecheck is a 3rd party company that should not have the authority to control my checkbook after a sale further more in this instance when I talked to telecheck on the phone and then I talked to my bank the problem should have been taken care of immediately my checkbook should not have been locked for 24 hours and I should have been able to make purchases afterwards this is my money there was NO FRAUDULENT activity and I was able to call the bank about this the bank said they never heard of a3rd party doing this to anyone Telecheck by no means should have the authority override my bank or my authority over MY MONEY what if this was a emergency.In conclusion this is my money and i did nothing wrong and i should not have been penalized and telecheck should never been able to override my authority it's one thing if it was actually fraudulent activity in this instance there was none I called telecheck and made that clear and I still was not able to make the purchase
This is unacceptable

RE: BBB Complaint No. ******** / *********************
Dear Ms. **************************** has received your response. As noted in our January 14, 2025 letter, as a courtesy, TeleCheck made
some modifications to your information in our system that we believed would reduce the likelihood of future Code 3
declines. Indeed, our records show that you received a check approval two weeks later1
at ******* 3253 (and no
declines since) so we believe your concerns have been addressed.
Please understand that a consumer does not have the right to pay for purchases using their checking account and a
merchant is under no obligation to accept payment by check. This is a courtesy some offer and TeleCheck offers
these merchants a warranty solution to protect against the risk that an item will return unpaid. As a result, TeleCheck
evaluates check payments against the risk of possible return and occasionally will recommend that a merchant not
accept a check payment.2
Without TeleCheck, many merchants would simply require some other form of payment
other than checks.
If you feel there is another issue, please provide details so that we may research and resolve. At this time, we
believe that the original complaint has been resolved. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please call
me directly at ************** or by email at ************************** You may also contact our Consumer Call

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
[Plpe your response here.]
February 8,2025I am writing in your respond on February ****** you sent me about the incident on January ******.
i understand you tried to make an apology but that apology was a blanket apology. You never dealt with the whole issue. I need all these issues addressed.
I understand that you did not approve my check and your reasoning was because you said I write to many checks. In my defense I only write checks or pay cash for all my stuff I get.
So you told me that you modificated my information in your system, that was very nice of you to do that and I thank you for that even though nothing was wrong with my check.
But there are still things you have not addressed and I would like them addressed
1. In your last letter on February 4, 2025 i received from BBB you said your records show that i received a check approval 2 weeks later at ******* with no declines since. My issue about this respond is, are you actually tracking me still? I had a issue on January 3rd i don't need some company tracking every move i make and why are you tracking and monitoring every move I make.
2. You also did not address another issue that happened on January 3rd. After you refused to let me use my check to pay for items i purchased from Rural King, you also froze my checkbook for 24 hours, and that is a issue with me.
i want to know who's authority gave you the right to freeze my checkbook for 24 hours. ******* did not give you that authority, they knew nothing about it. When we called them, they also said they never heard of a company doing this. This is a real issue. I want to know what crime did I do that you had to freeze my account. You stopped me from doing any type of business for 24 hours. Who gave you that type of authority, that you can freeze someone's account? It one thing if a person did something wrong, but I did nothing wrong. Even if i was supposed to have done something wrong, it's the bank that has the authority to freeze the account not a 3rd party telecheck company. So who gave you the authority to freeze my account?
3. In the last letter you wrote me on February 4th you told me. That a consumer does not have the right to pay for purchases using there checking account, since when. The bank uses checks, they sell checks to the people so we can use them anywhere. They are not illegal to use. I understand you are a 3rd party company and your job is to make sure the businesses do not get bad checks. But you have no right banding checks. We as United States citizens have the right to use checks if we want to. The bank honors them and the bank handles my money not you, and they are not illegal. I don't know where you get your information but last I knew I live in ************* I don't know where you live, but ************* is a free Country and you don't make the rules. You also wrote in that letter trying to explain to me you said without telecheck many merchants would simply require some other form of payment other than checks. Make up your mind one minute you say the consumer does not have the right to pay for there purchases using there checking account and later you say without telecheck many merchants would simply require some other form of payment other than checks. You are contradicting yourself. It boils down to this you need people to write checks so you will have a job. So Don't tell me that the consumer does not have the right to pay for there purchases using checks.
I also believe you would like this original complaint to be resolved, but I believe you have not addressed these issues on January 3rd. And for you to ask me if I have anymore questions I should call you directly. My respond to that is on January 3rd I was on the phone at Rural King for about ***** minutes trying to talk to telecheck and I ask the lady to let me talk to your supervisor, I asked over and over and all she would do is give me the 800 number and that was the number I was using at the time talking with her.
This is the 3rd letter I have written and I can't believe I have to ask about all this again just answer the questions I have addressed about the incident on January ****** I deserve that. You have embarrassed me and humiliated me at that store. That's the least you could do answer my questions.

I wrote a check in Meijers for $100 which they say was overdrafted. I talked to my bank, and they said my account was NEVER overedrafted. I was trying to live chat with them last night and I gave them everything verbally, and was asked to fill out a form. I question their integrity - why are they asking me to pay a dollar to speak to a live representative and ask for all of my personal information and a credit card. I gave up. This morning I talked to Telecheck in the Phillipines, I was trying to explain the check cleared my bank this morning.Business Response

It is absurd that we are being prevented from participating in this program solely because of your arbitrary *********** a result of your actions, I am now being denied the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of this rewards program, which is nothing short of harassment and unfair treatment.

I believe that your actions are unreasonable and unfair, and I will not hesitate to take legal action to protect my rights and interests.Furthermore, I am also extremely upset that you have blocked my wife's name as well. This is not only an invasion of her privacy but also an attempt to intimidate and bully us into submission. I demand that you provide a clear explanation for why you have chosen to block her name as well and take immediate action to rectify this situation.I expect a prompt response from your company acknowledging receipt of this letter and providing a plan for how you will rectify this situation.

12/3/2024 Telecheck is blocking me from paying the California DMV with bank account and routing information. The transaction is repeatedly denied with language stating the decision was based on "...on information provided by TeleCheck". No decline code is provided. Telecheck does not provide a resolution path without a decline code. When I finally worked my way through one of their phone trees their customer service staff asks for bank routing and account information, and social security number. Shocking that this private information is requested and they informed me they could not look up my account to verify if I didn't provide it. Why would they have my banking information in their system without my authorization. When I relented and provide it they said that their system was down and could not help. I had to pay a $11.92 fee to pay my auto registration by credit card and Telecheck has all my banking information. So not only did it cost me the fee, but how is one not to assume this is giant fraud and phishing operation. Additionally, I filed a dispute with their online forms and never heard back from the company. And as expected the CA DMV was no help.Business Response

Dear Mr. *************************** has received your BBB complaint regarding a declined check that you received from the California DMV. Thank
you for speaking with me on December 17, 2024. During that conversation, I explained that TeleCheck would need more
information to locate the declined check under your consumer information.
For background, TeleCheck is a check acceptance and check processing company which works with merchants nationwide

TeleCheck evaluates, and processes check payments at the point of sale for its merchant clients by evaluating transactions

TeleCheck will decline a check when there are negative items associated with a check writer in its database (a
Code 4 decline) or when a statistical analysis of the check reflects an unacceptable risk that a check will not clear.2
In those
instances, TeleCheck will issue a Code 3 decline.
While we understand your frustration, we need a little more information to help us locate the decline so we can help resolve
your concerns. Typically, we utilize a specific decline number you should have received at the point of sale on the transaction
record (receipt) that was provided to you. If you do not have that information, any or all of the below additional information
should allow us to locate and address the transaction at issue:
A copy of your drivers license or other state-issued identification used in connection with the denied transaction; or
A copy of a voided check from the account in question or the full bank account and routing numbers.
Please note all information you provide us is legally protected from unauthorized disclosure.
