    I cancelled my trash collection services with this company on 4/13/23. We are billed every three months for trash collection with this Company and prior to cancelling we had paid through June 30th, 2023. I was told that we would receive a refund for the portion of this trash pickup period that has not been used. Despite multiple calls and attempts to reach this company regarding answers as to when I will receive my refund I have not been provided one, and continue to get passed off to different staff who claim that I will receive a refund but it never comes.

    To ensure the quickest possible turnaround time, its recommended that refunds be processed using the original payment method on file.  There was an issue processing the refund to an alternate payment method, but it has since been resolved.  The customer's refund was processed on 5/5/23.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

    Regards,

    *****************o total $417.12. Then we cancelled services starting July.I have texted the employee ******* and was told that he will fix the issue. But it has not been fixed. Today, August 5th, we received a voice message from the company saying that we still owe $223.62 for the month of **** since we only sent a check of $187.07 to them, and that we have to pay or else the account will be handed over to collections. I called the company and told them I had already paid $230.05 during the start of ****. They just didnt deposit the money under Classic Clean. They put it under the name ***********. But I was told there was nothing they can do and that I should contact *******.So I called *******. No answer. I texted them. He tells me to contact him Monday. This is the third time I am contacting him about billing issues. He says he will update the billing issue, but nothing has happened.Here is laundromat account info:Clasico Clean / account#****** / *****************************************
