ACI Payments records show that Nakishia Copper initiated 7 transactions (3/30/22, 4/29/22, 6/5/22, 7/30/22, 8/30/22, 10/2/22, and 11/2/22) to the *** through our payment system and all 7 processed successfully. ACI Payments Consumer Support Team left a voice message for the consumer on 11/21/22 requesting a return call to review the information entered with the transactions. Our records show that the same *** was entered with each transaction,but a different last name was entered on 2 of the transactions. The *** is the unique identifier used by the *** to apply payments to taxpayers accounts. If the *** entered is correct, the *** has the funds, but has not yet applied them to the consumers account. The *** is responsible for applying payments to the taxpayers account and has been known to take an extended amount of time posting payments. Please call ACI Payments Consumer Support Team to review the information provided with these transactions or contact the *** directly at ************** for Personal Tax inquiries.Customer Answer

I submitted 2 email inquiries (8/31/22 and 9/19/22) to ACI Worldwide **** that remain unanswered. I also contacted an ACI customer service representative by phone who advised that since I had no confirmation number, they could not assist me further.

An email containing the payment verification information was sent to ******** on 10/17/2022.

I made my federal tax return payment through *** ********* *** on 4/13/2022 and received an email confirmation with confirmation number *******. I then received a letter from the *** attempting to collect the full taxes owed in June 2022. I called the *** customer service phone number, it is only an automated payment line. I emailed the customer service email on 6/17/2022 for help and received no response. I emailed them again when I realized the error I had made, I typed one number wrong of my husband's SSN when submitting the form. I understand this was my mistake, but this company took the money from my bank account and held it, delivering the payment nowhere and never informing me there was any issue. I informed them specifically what the mistake was by email and sent another request for help on 7/18/2022. They then wrote me back stating that they had responded to my 6/17 email (they did not-I checked my spam folder). They said the matter would be resolved and to give the *** time to process. I just received another letter from the *** dated 9/6 requesting payment. With penalties and interest. I am so stressed. I will never use this company again. They have not offered to put the money back in my account so I can send the payment a different way. At this point *** payments *** owes me $2351.98 if they cannot get the money to the ***. This has been a total nightmare.Business Response

ACI Payments received ***************** emails and reached out to the *** in June on her behalf to have them update the payment. ACI Payments records show the consumers April payment processed successfully, and the funds were sent to the ***. Because the consumer made an error when entering the primary SSN, the *** was unable to post the payment to the consumers account.
An ACI Payments Consumer Support Lead has followed up with the *** again requesting that they update the payment as soon as possible. The Consumer Support Lead also attempted to contact ****************** by phone and email to explain that the *** is responsible for applying payments to the taxpayers account and has been known to take an extended amount of time posting payments. The *** can be contacted directly at ************** for Personal Tax inquiries.Customer Answer

On the date of 7/26/2022 I paid my Premier Credit card bill via ACI pay. After seeing that the money was never received by Premier. I called them on 7/28/2022 and they stated they had not received my payment from ACI pay. The payment was for $100 USD. I was told that maybe it hadnt been sent over yet and to wait til Monday. As today 8/3/2022 there has been no payment received by premier from ACI pay on my behalf. I contact them Via email 4 days ago with no response. Whatever they have done has not only set me back on my bill but also caused a derogatory **** to be put on my credit report for a late payment. I have had no email response and no calls from ACI. They havent attempted to reach out at all. The same email Im using here is the same email I used to contact them. At this point in time I am requesting a refund and if not received in a timely manner I will seek legal action for the damages caused to my credit profile because of them.Business Response

I am only rejecting this response because I reached out over a week maybe 2 weeks ago at this point with no response. It would appear this issue was fixed nonetheless I received no communication from ACI payments after reaching out to them regarding the matter. I will accept this however because of the lack of communication I will no longer use ACI pay

I used this company to pay my *** taxes for this year. I made a payment to them on April 15th then received a **** from the *** in June. ACI cannot be reached over the phone, only with multiple request for them to call you via email. The one time someone called me they were obviously working from home based on back ground noise. I am filing a dispute with my bank today to have my ******* returned. I have sent an email to the company to let them know this and that if my money isnt returned I will pursue legal action for my money.Business Response

The consumer, ***********************, emailed ACI Payments on 6/16/22 after receiving a letter from the *** stating their taxes had not been paid. A call center supervisor reached out to the consumer to review the payment information submitted to make sure it was correct (i.e. SSN, *** Form Type). Upon review of the payment information, it was determined that the payment type was entered incorrectly. The payment type listed on the payment was *** Estimated 2022 and it should have been *** Estimated 2021. ACI Payments offered to contact the *** and request that the payment type be corrected, so the payment could be applied to the consumer's account. The consumer advised they were going to dispute the charge and re-submit the payment using another payment method. Once the dispute is processed, the funds will be returned to the original payment instrument.Customer Answer
