We moved to Paycor on Jan 2022 and their Implementations Mgr, Kendra D******, did a very poor job setting up our account. The Paycor team didn't take the time to onboard us and to make sure they understood our payroll and PTO schedule and process. Along the way, we encountered numerous issues that we had to fix ourselves. The worse one was when Kendra miscoded our ****** *** contributions and did not assign the contribution amounts as pre-tax. As a result, on Jan 19, 2023, we requested Paycor to change the code and correct the total year's gross wages in our individual W2s. The payroll return also had to be amended to reflect this change. Our accountant worked with Paycor to get this resolved in the easiest way possible. We had no choice but to pay $685 in fees to get the W2s corrected and amendments filed, when this should have been Paycor's responsibility since their implementations manager rushed the process and therefore, the set up was not accurate from the start. And to-date, we have not received our corrected W2s. We were given a 7-10 business days turnaround time and when I called the customer rep to follow up on Feb 24, I was told it can take up to 30 days now because they have so much backlog. But we only have 22 W2Cs to correct, not 1,000. I had requested to speak to a manager and the rep refused. She insisted that it's already in the system and that I will have to wait for an email confirmation. When it will be available, she doesn't know. Then she hung up on me. I emailed my contact at Paycor who helped me with the amendments, but the case was closed and I never got a response. One positive with Paycor, is that I always get someone to talk on the other end. However, the rep didn't have the answer I needed. There is no higher level manager/leader to talk to who knows exactly what's going on and can give us a definite answer. In the meantime, our employees are panicking and have been demanding their W2Cs.Business Response

I have been a Paycor Customer since 2005. I have had zero active employees and have not run payroll in 8+ years. I simply paid to maintain an open account for quite some time. For years the monthly fee for doing so was $40.00/month. As mutually agreed at 8-2021 the fee was increased to $85.00/month. At April 2022, without my consent, Paycor began charging my account $234.00/month. Since then but to no avail I have had countless phone and email correspondences with Paycor attempting to remedy this matter. They make you believe that they are going to take action, assign a case number and inform you that someone will be back in touch. When someone......a "Client Care Specialist, Paycor Client Services Team Member" or similar titled employee without a disclosed name finally does reach back out they regurgitate the same response every time.....they offer a lower monthly bundle and/or push for closing the account with the pretense they are doing me a favor. I find it appalling that they will not implement a lower monthly fee/package without my consent as if they need my permission to do so but raising the rate without permission is no problem? They claim that that had a price restructuring on 4-1-22. Even if it were justifiable to change the monthly fee in any way without my permission at that time why was the most expensive Paycor service bundle implemented and not the basic/most comparable monthly bundle at $99/month? On numerous occasions I have requested a refund for the gross unauthorized over charges that have accrued beginning 4-1-2022 to date but instead Paycor ultimately pushes for closing the account apparently hoping that I will just walk away. I have instructed Paycor multiple times to halt debiting my account until this matter is resolved or else be prepared to assume all insufficient fund charges that will arise but they have failed to do so. Their Philosophy is clearing take it or leave and on the contrary to their mission statement they do not "take care of their clients first".Business Response

We paid Paycor for our W2 and data export this week after contacting them 3 weeks ago. ONLY after writing other bad reviews and reaching out on social media did they send me the data export, however, it is missing the W2s, which is specifically stated in the quote. We will be seeking legal counsel if we do not have our requested documents by 02/18/23. Worst customer service ever.Business Response

I have the most horrid experience with Paycor. Barbara S. who is supposed to be my implementation speclialist has been an absolute nightmare. She never calls me back. She ignores my emails. I had a situation where the risk team needed to see a screenshot of my bank balance (The same bank account they used last week) Weekly payroll. Barbara asks this of me at 10 am and says its urgent. I am in the dr's office, I send it at 12 noon. She never responded. I called around 3:45 pm to ask if my payroll was processed. To no avail, it was not. I knew this would be games played. If I never had called, I would have never known my payroll was not being processed. I sat on the phone with another specialist for 2 hours, and Barbara never called. She sent an email at 4pm telling me to send a wire, and that is it. Banks are closed, no one is sending a wire that late. Not only do I have to explain to my employees the screw ups by Paycor, I have to go into the bank and with draw a crap load of cash to hand out. This is dangerous and embarrassing. It looks unprofessional. It is now 5:57pm at night and I have not been called by Barbara, her manger, risk dept manager, not anyone. Oh yea they drafted their payroll fees our first thing today... BIG LOL...but refused to draft the same account for my employees payroll. This is the most unprofessional service I have received in life. Crazy thing is my Other skin colored friends who are with Paycor never received this treatment. Some things definitely need to be looked into. At this point, it's deeper than what I thought it was. They are targeting me, and as a PAYING client, I should never feel that way. If you ever join them, please stay far away from Barbara. She is the worst person to handle your business. You will get screwed every time. She does not even have the decency to contact you and apologize for her screw ups. She will go about her day and leave you to just DEAL!!!! BEWARE... you will end up like me!Business Response

Paycor does not respond to any e-mail correspondence, yet they have an automated response that gives a case number and says they will get back to you. No representative will e-mail back, and they will not talk to us on the phone, saying that a "previous client" must e-mail a seemingly unmonitored e-mail. We have been attempting to get information from them and they refuse to give it to us.Business Response

I emailed Paycor on 12/27/22 that I wished to terminate my subscription to their payroll services eff 1/31/23. I received a reply that evening my request had been assigned a case number. I hadn't heard from anyone to I followed up on 12/30/22 by phone. A rep advised me that I was required to submit my request using their online form & walked me through the process. I submitted the form but heard nothing. I followed up a week later by phone to ensure the cancellation was being processed and was told they couldn't find my form and that I had to submit again so I did.
On 2/9/23 they withdrew $183 from my bank account for February payroll processing. I was livid so I emailed them a copy of my invoice reiterating the scenario. They advised me I needed to submit their form. I feel like I'm going in circles.
They've now been paid $183 for February (payroll ceased with them 12/31/22) and will expect to be paid $183 for March since the 'form' requires 30 days processing.
My contract explicitly states I am required to provide 30 days written notice to close my account- which I did on 12/27/22. My contract does not say that I'm required to submit their special form. I question if this isn't their business model. Require submission of a form and then lose the form to squeeze a few extra months out of their clients. All while providing no services.
I'd like my account to be closed effective 1/31/23 and be refunded $183 for February processing fees.
Thank you.Business Response

We used Paycore for payroll provider for several years for our business. Their customer service was terrible when we had them they constantly messed up things like 401k matching and would not get them resolved. They would move us from one person to the next when they could not get the problems resolved. We talked with management with no fixes to our problems.
We found a new payroll provider because of this and they took over 2nd quarter of 2022. They have been great however per our termination letter and agreement with Paycore they were supposed to supply W-2 forms for our employees for the first quarter of 2022. They have failed to provide these by the deadline. They will only respond to emails from the original point of contact from our company. They take days or sometimes weeks to respond to these emails and told us they are not responsible for our W-2 forms. We provided them with the termination letter that we both agreed upon only to have them not respond since.
We are now stuck with finding a way to get W-2 made for the payroll they were responsible for along with paying the fees because they did not do their job. This is why we replaced them to begin with. We started contacting them over a month before the deadline because we suspected this would be an issue with their history of poor customer service.
These people should not be allowed to provide these services I do not know why the government would continue to allow it.Business Response

We took a look at your account and found the termination letter than was sent to Paycor from your business. However, these terms were never agreed upon by Paycor. We responded by asking you to fill out the account closure form to which you did not respond. It was also stated in the terms and conditions on your account that you would need to pay for additional access and data after account closure (attached). Our deactivation team has sent a quote, once the quote is signed, we can begin processing your W2s.Customer Answer

Due to a UPS delivery issue, our 2022 W-2s were returned to sender. Rather than resend them, Paycor opted to destroy the printed W-2s without notice or any attempt to reship. After multiple calls into Paycor support to get them to reprint and reship them, Paycor sends us a bill on 1/31/2023 for a $725 "reprint fee" despite us having already paid $323.50 for the original printing and delivery. On 2/3/2023 I spoke with Paycor again to escalate the issue to the billing department. Knowing from past and ongoing experience with Paycor billing issues, frontline payroll support has no power to resolve billing issues, and the issue was passed on to a tier 2 manager named "*****, who said I would receive a callback that day with a resolution. Having not received any further contact from Paycor by midday, 2/6/2023. I called in a second time and was told again that someone would reach out. Following that call I sent an email to Paycor support revoking authorization to automatically debit our bank account for service fees. On 2/7/2023 our bank account was debited for the full amount. We are seeking an immediate refund and resolution to the billing issue.Business Response

**** ***********To recap, Paycor failed to deliver the product we paid for. Destroyed it, then charged us double to redeliver it. On top of that, they drafted the money for that from our account after we had revoked authorization for them to do so. When confronted with this complaint they offer to refund the fees, then proceed to weaponize the incompetence of their billing department to drag out us receiving the refund for months in what seems to be an effort to timeout the BBB complaint. Now they are refusing to return the money. Paycor is not operating in good faith, and that needs to be reflected in their BBB rating.

They have in no way whatsoever addressed the fact that authorization to debit our bank account was revoked in writing when they debited our account.
Their responses include statements with "Again we are happy to reprint for the client with a signed quote and payment", which is in no way relevant to the issue and doesn't make any sense.

I apologize if there was any misunderstanding about the process. The reference to the "final stages of approval" simply means that the approved refund is now in the last phase before being processed.

When joining paycor I was told that there was going to be monthly payments of $50 dollars thru the bank ******. During the corse of last yr 2022 I was charged on average monthly charges of $150 plus. I did the math and it was close to $1,000 dollars that was taken out of my bank account with no idea what it was going to. First there was a problem because the person who was with support to set me up did not put in a code. I had to call multiple places to find my unemployment code while the charges kept coming in. I had my banker at ****** set up time out of her day to set up 2 sometimes 3 hour meetings in which we could call places to get the code and fix the problem. Overall it was very draining and no one thru paycor seemed to help me in any kind of way. Id wait on hold for 30 min until they would finally pick up only to transfer me to another department.Finally we got the codes sorted out that was suppose to fix the problem, it did not.
I am a small business owner trying very hard to build something successful but the stress from setting up times to call and not really getting anywhere was super draining. This went on for months. We finally figured out numbers and put them into the system but the over charges keep coming in. As I said around $1,000 extra with no help or logical explanation on why the money was being taking out of my account. The original plan was to get everything right with numbers in the system and get the paycor to give me a refund for the money they took out before canceling the service. We tried this got people on the phone only to give me and my banker Grace the run around. They would tell me numorous times that they would have someone from high up call me but that never happened. I couldn't even get on the phone with the right person to make a complaint. Over all it cost me stress about 30 hours of my time and frustration as well as the money they took. I have been angry about this and feel cheated, mislead and taken advantage of.

I have been charged for services this company didn't provide - specifically the time and attendance model. Paycor was never able to set up the program on my account and, after numerous attempts to resolve this matter including escalating it to management and requesting a different representative to work on my account, the issue was never resolved and time and attendance was never operating on my account. Additionally, I continue to be charged despite not running payroll through Paycor since December 2022. I would like a refund for the following invoices:
04251836 = $142 total invoice fee, payroll wasn't run
04110716 = $132.50 total invoice fee minus $12.50 for shipping costs that I owe. No payroll run
04015906 = $56.50 for time and attendance fees
03932238 = $37.50 for time and attendance fees
03848473 = $19.00 for time and attendance fees
03812935 = $6.33 for time and attendance fees
Additionally, the following fees have been deducted from my bank account and I don't know what they are for so I am requesting explanation or a refund:
1/17/2023 = $850.08
11/28/2022 = $111.27
11/18/2022 = $16.09
11/16/2022 = $334.69
9/14/2022 = $878.31Business Response

****** *****Problem:
I used Paycor payroll services from 9/2022-12/2022 and they have continued to invoice me and auto deduct from my bank account through 3/8/2023 for services not provided. I have not run payroll since December 15, 2022 and time and attendance was never established on my account. I had sent several emails beginning in December 2022 requesting to cancel service and finally received a reply (3/2/2023) to respond to their email to cancel. I have sent numerous emails requesting a refund for bank withdrawals for services not provided and I haven't received a reply. I would like a refund for all time and attendance charges and all payroll/time and attendance charges January - present. I am not uploading invoices as Paycor has access to these.
Desired Resolution:

Please see below for correspondence sent to the client by our critical response team:
"After further review of your account, I do understand that you have not processed payroll since December 2022. Your monthly services are billed monthly during the time that your Paycor account is open, regardless of the number of payruns that are processed each month. Our teams were advised you were wanting to close your Paycor account on 1/16, and emailed you on 1/17 providing instructions to complete the needed information to officially close the account. We are not able to close an account without this information, as we have to ensure we are handling quarterly and year end tax documents appropriately based on your company’s needs and individual situation.
Since this information was not provided to Paycor until the beginning of March, your account’s closure date is 3/8/2023. Due to this, the monthly fees that were billed from January-March of 2023 are valid, as your account was open and active. If you have any questions on this, please let me know I am happy to assist."
Our critical response consultant will continue to work with the client and answer any questions they may have.
