North American Bancard We've been lied to and scammed out of several hundred dollars! Troy Michigan
North American Bancard Complaint
How this company continues to lie and steal from small businesses is unbelievable. With all the complaints (visit http://www.my3cents.com/search.cgi?criteria=North+American+Bancard to see them) why haven't we seen a "Class Action Suit or the complaints attracting the attention of the Attorney General.
In June of 2006 I spoke with a salesperson that said he could save our company a lot of money processing credit cards; after a few months I realized that we were paying more then ever, I called customer service but they had the attitude that they could care less about what the salespeople say to sign up new customers.
Fed up with all of the fees being charged I stopped using their service in June 2008, my bank account is still being debited every month for $35 (5 x $35= $175) with no service being provided. On November 18th, 2008 I called to cancel the service and was told that I would be charged a $295 early termination fee because my 3 year contract wasn't up (the salesperson lied) and that I needed to send back the Hypercom T7P (salesperson said I would own it after 1 year) or I would be charged an additional $495. I no longer have the Hypercom T7P because it wouldn't work with the new credit card processing service, believing that I owned it because it had been over 1 year; I traded it for a new unit. Since I no longer have the unit I offered to send them a brand new (Hypercom T7P) which can be easily purchased for between $110 and $150, the customer service rep said I couldn't do that and that I would have to pay them the $495.
$295 + $495 + $175 = $965 with no service being provided!!!!!

Dear Merchant,
North American Bancard works very diligently to resolve all customer issues and complaints. Since our inception in 1992, we have worked with over 125,000 merchants of all sizes and levels of complexity. We provide a high level of service and support to our customers, as is evidenced by the low number of complaints we handle. Occasionally we, like any other large company, may make a mistake or mishandle an issue. When these are brought to our attention we resolve them to the best of our ability. Our 250+ employees work hard every day to make doing business with NAB a pleasure for our merchants and stakeholders, all we ask is the opportunity to recover well.
In regards to the fees that have been questioned, your individual Agreement will clearly list on page nine of the terms and conditions all the fees that may apply to your account.
Unfortunately enough information was not provided for us to accurately determine your specific Merchant Account. If your account was incorrectly debited, or you believe your fees have been inadequately advised, then we would need specific information in order to properly address the concerns or correct any errors.
NAB would like to apologize for any unsatisfactory service related issues you have experienced and would like to take the opportunity to discuss this matter further. Please have your Merchant Account number ready, and contact our Customer Service Department at 800-226-2273, extension 1300 so that your specific situation may be properly researched and addressed.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Paull
