  Good afternoon,

  Thank you for providing us Ms. ******** complaint. We process payments to our customers on a weekly basis. We send those payments to the bank accounts via ACH direct deposit or to debit cards, whichever method the customer elects. Ms. ******* changed her preferred payment method the week of November 14th, from debit card to direct deposit. We are still investigating why, but her next payment following her payment method change still went to her debit card inadvertently. Once we were notified of the issue with this complaint on Monday, the 25th, we reissued payment to her direct deposit account on Tuesday, the 26th. As of today, the 29th, we have not received any notification from ***************** or her that she did not receive the reissued payment. We have called her 3 times since Tuesday to try to confirm she has received the payment, but she has not answered our calls and the phone number she has provided us does not take voicemail messages. 

  We believe this matter is resolved, but Ms. ******* claims she has not received the payment, we encourage her to contact us directly and we will be happy to research further.

  Kind regards,

  **** *****

  I want to delete my account but ********************** says they won't delete the account and will keep my account open with all my info indefinitely. I have never heard of this. I would have never signed up with this company if they were going to keep my info INDEFINITELY. There is no reason to keep my info i never even worked and there is no reason ot should be on the internet. I tried to resolve this with a supervisor but what she told me was a lie she said i could upload a blank paper and that would delete my information. But i am still able to see my documents. They have pictures of my social security number and my passport. I want my account completely closed permanently. They are hiding behind audits but you do not need my info as I did not make over 600 I didn't even work and they definitely do not need it indefinitely. I want my account deleted. This is very tricky practices because no one is informed they keep these account open indefinitely.

  Thank you for bringing ********* concerns to our attention. Here is a summary of our review and actions taken:
  
  Openforce acts as a facilitator of enrollments and contracts between independent contractors and the customers with which they contract. ******************** is not a direct party to these contracts and, therefore, has no authority to cancel them.
  
  ******** requested the cancellation of her enrollment with her customer through our system. At the time of her request, she had already enrolled with the customer. We cannot delete her enrollment entirely as the enrollment records may be necessary for her or her customers in the event of any government audits and things of that nature. However, per ********* request, we did deactivate her account,archived her information, and with her upload of additional documents masked her personal documents. She can still view her documents and information because she retains full access to her documents and information, but they are archived and unavailable beyond restricted users for audits.

  I just want my account deleted. I do not want any part of accessing the account. I do not want my social security and passport on the account. Who has the authority to delete the account.

  I wish your company would have  made it clear that you were going to keep my account open and all of my documents indefinitely. 

  I hope others see this and learn from my mistake.

  We understand the frustration. As we mentioned earlier, we cannot delete the **s account entirely because the **s customer has the right to be able to know whether the ** ever contracted with them. That being said, as we mentioned earlier we are deleting her account as an active account and additionally we are removing her personal documents and information from our system. Her account information is only available to us internally in an archived format for record keeping purposes, and her documents are being removed entirely.

  Thank you for bringing ************************** concerns to our attention. Here is a summary of our review and actions taken:
  
  Openforce acts as a facilitator of enrollments between independent contractors and the customers they are contracted through. ******************** is not a direct party to these contracts and, therefore, has no authority to cancel enrollments without the company's approval.
  
  ********************* requested the cancellation of his enrollment with one of his customers through our system. At the time of his request, his customer had already accepted the enrollment and completed the contract using our software platform. Because the contract was finalized, we could not unilaterally cancel it on his behalf.
  
  Had ********************** asked for the cancellation before the contract was accepted, we could have accommodated his request easily. Although he could have used the cancellation provision in his contract, he chose not to and instead filed this complaint.
  
  As a courtesy, we contacted his customer to request the cancellation on his behalf. The customer agreed, and the contract was canceled without issue.Following the cancellation, we deactivated ************************** enrollment with that customer. He is no longer contracted with them in our system.

  I contracted with the app Merchandiser as an independent contractor who can only get paid for services provided by open force yet their website lacks any actual accounting or payment request tools and their support and chat feature results In nothing but robot prompts that dont help you

  Business Response

  Date: 01/19/2024

  We are sorry to hear about Ms. ******* experience. We were not aware of the issues she has been having. We have no record of her request for a $47.50 settlement (our word for a payment), or record of any issues she may have had with any settlements or use of our system. We wonder if the issues Ms. ***** mentions in the complaint about robot prompts are with the "Merchandizer" application, not with our system.The screen shots Ms. ***** provided seem to be from a site or application other than ours, and we do not have a mobile application with prompts like the ones in the screen shots. 
  
  Regardless, if Ms.***** has not received a settlement we are happy to look into that for her and get her paid. Our records show we have received one request to pay her, and she received that payment (a $26.69 settlement) for work with the Merchandizer on January 17. If she is missing a settlement, we kindly ask she reach out to us at **************** and we will investigate her missing settlement, and get any missing settlements paid promptly.
