Dont really care who gives my money back but it needs to happen. I paid my brothers full bail/bond ($2500 plus fees). It clearly states me being the one paying and shows my card. I live in Ga and did my brother (who I dont talk to) in ** a favor. According to his wife he was sent the $2500 I paid once his case was dismissed. Either ************** or Allpaid owe me money. It is very clear he did not pay and I did. I have screen shots of him making threats after they sent my money to him. How is it justifiable to send someone $2500 who didnt pay it and just got out of jail. How far do I need to take this?? I want whats mine and it will be forgotten.Business Response

On 06/28/2023, I attempted to pay ****** for court costs to the Will County Circuit Court. The site said the payment could not be authorized, so I paid it in two chuncks of ******. I looked a moment later as they took the ****** that they claimed "was not authorized" and when I called at first, they found the payment and said that it would be sent back to my bank. When I called my bank, they didn't have a notice of cancellation. I called back, and customer ********************** claimed they could not locate the payment and I have yet to get my money back.Business Response

We are sorry that this consumer had a bad experience when attempting to process a payment. I found reference #******** for an incomplete transaction for $669.18 for this consumer. This payment was not authorized on our payment platform. However, the consumer's bank may have placed a temporary hold for a pre-authorization. If the consumer doesn't see this pending authorization drop from their bank, they should contact us.Initial Complaint

In January, I had a fraudulent charge on my debit card and as a result, I had to have a new card issued. On February 4, 2022, I sent an email to All Paid requesting instruction on how to update my auto payment information. I never received a response. Admittedly, with all the other companies I was trying to update my info with, I neglected to follow up with All Paid. I did not give it another thought until today when I spoke with an account rep from Nationwide Interlock who informed me that my February and March premiums were outstanding. I explained the situation to her and she told me that All Paid would have sent me an email when my payment didn't process. I have no evidence of having received any such email from them or any other communication related to the declined payment. Thankfully, I had not yet incurred a late penalty for the February premium and I was able to take care of it.Additionally, the Nationwide rep told me that I still had an outstanding balance of $19.50 on the vehicle swap that I paid for on March 12, 2022. I explained to her that I'd paid the $200 and the $6 service fee through All Paid. The rep told me that the outstanding balance was for sales tax. At no point had anyone involved in this process informed me that I would have to manually calculate and include sales tax on this payment. I assumed that since all All Paid seems to do is accept and process payments, that they would include any necessary taxes. If the Nationwide rep had not contacted me, I would have had absolutely no way of knowing that I owed the $19.50. So, I MANUALLY paid $19.50 just for the sales tax, and I was charged another $2 service fee. The website is confusing and frustrating to use. They have poor customer ********************** and do not reply to inquires or issues. Nor do they communicate with customers in any sort of helpful way.Business Response

The consumer did email our help desk for help related to updating her payment card on file. The help desk responded on the next available business day which was Monday,February 6. A screen shot of that response is included.
The consumer indicated that our customer/recipient (Interlock Web Tn/Nationside Interlock) told her that All Paid would have sent me an email when my payment didn't process. This is not accurate information. Our payment platform does not send notices of declined payments.We have refunded the full payment + service fee amount for transaction reference #******** ($19.50 + $2.00 = $21.50)

This website was listed on Macomb County, ********** website as an option to pay court fees online. The fee that was charged to me was not presented clearly on the site. I was charged an incredible fee of $77.25 for my transaction. Also, I feel the site was misleading about payment distribution. I believed that my transaction would either be immediate or very soon at the least. It turns out this company issues an actual check to the court and sends it in the mail. I am still waiting for my court to receive the payment. I feel that refunding this fee is the only right thing to do. No one would ever use this service if they knew of the charge prior to completing their transaction, especially considering their delayed payment distribution to the courts. There is no benefit to using this service over mailing a ********************** the mail to the court.Business Response

We regret any inconvenience you feel you experienced using our service and are refunding your $77.25 in the interest of good will. We must point out, however, that the service fee is disclosed to users such as yourself at two locations in the ************** you completed including just before you submitted your transaction for processing - screenshots of these disclosures are included with this response.
The court approved this service fee in its contract with us. At times, individuals prefer paying by card but this is a personal choice. Similarly, AllPaids settlement of funds to the court by check is a choice the court made. Our preference is electronic transfers but a small number of our agency customers require paper checks.
AllPaid trusts this will address your concern and correct any misconceptions about our service.Customer Answer

For the last two months I have been unable to a process a payment online thru allpaid.com on my cellphone. Everytime I try to search for the location code it says that the request failed. I was able to use my mother's desktop one time to make the payment and then even that stopped working. The fee to make my payment online is $3.75 but if I call to make the payment (because the web site is trash) it is $7.75. I sent an email that went unanswered in regards to the website being trash. I just want to be able to make my payment and not have to pay a higher fee because it's not my fault.Business Response

We are very sorry this consumer had issues when attempting to pay via our website using her mobile device. The entire service fee of $7.75 has been refunded. She should see the refund in her account within 3-5 business days.
