Dear Gold Bars,

Per your request, we refunded your $500 and have continued to payout your account as scheduled. You notified your Sales Director that you would be removing SegPay from your cascade. From a risk perspective we do not keep inactive accounts open. You had 5 rebills remaining at the time of account closure, is this what you have an issue with? We can transfer those 5 members to a PCI compliant third party if you wish.

1.I did not get the 500$.
2.I did not my sales director that I would be removing SegPay from my cascade. I mentioned here in the thread. That doesnt mean anything.
3. I had 6 rebills and that means the account must have remained active. But you stole them. You cannot terminante an active account with rebills no matter what. Not to mention terminating it without notice. I lost two months rebills and sales.
4. I should have had the chance to opt out of that MasterCard fee just like epoch and ccbill but I didnt.
5. I checked my htpasswd file two months after the account termination and realized the logins were still there. That's fraud.

GoldBarsXXX 07-22-2013 08:54 PM

Still no news from these swindlers.

GoldBarsXXX 08-02-2013 10:18 AM

still ignoring my requests.

2MuchMark 08-02-2013 11:04 AM

Yikes! Big mistake.

First, like everyone else here, Segpay is a really respected biller. Cathy and her whole team go out of their way to help their clients. Trying to trash them in a public forum by calling them a scam makes you look bad, not them.

Besides that, you should not cancel your Mastercard service. Even if your Mastercard sales are low, you need to make it as easy as possible for your customers to spend money, not harder. You already have at least 2 billing processors in a cascade for this very reason.

If I were you I'd offer up an apology to Segpay and get back to work increasing your sales.

Best,

They probably won't, and shouldn't, respond to you in this thread. Call or email your sales rep and wait patiently for them to get back to you.

Segpay seems to have a Coral Springs, FL address in the U.S. Sometimes bringing things to the attention of local authorities can bring surprising results when there is a porn connection. Especially in Florida.

For the .htpasswd I think you can change that yourself. They might not want to touch it after they terminated your account since they presumably don't own the server and they severed business relationships/contracts.

Anyway you would think it would be smarter for them to reasonably work with you even though you aren't a "bro". It's never smart to piss someone off no matter how big they are.

Your account came up for renewal in May of 2013. We announced the renewal fee on April 25, 2013 and that the $500 renewal fee would be deducted from the May 7, 2013 payout. This email notification was sent to the contact information we have on file in our system. Your Sales Director will be in touch with you to discuss how we can close out your account.

So it looks like you didn't give him any chance at all to opt out for the charge May 7,2013 (there was no way to opt out per the screenshot above - it was not just a matter of opting out too late) however you would have gladly opted him out for next year. That is the main reason why he is upset. It also looks like you failed to communicate to him that he could not opt out when he initially said he wanted to opt out.

In addition to that less than a week after taking the $500 fee which he could not opt out of you have now unilaterally closed his account because he said some things on the forum about you. So he paid $500 for one week.

Carry on... I do think you got taken advantage of for another $500 then to boot, like most do, they canned your account for bitching.

This was my reply in this thread... I was actually backing OP.

After I made the above post... OP sent me a nasty email. It does seem like he got hood winked and forced into $500... but OP is also an illiterate and a racist. So I say fuck em anyway.

Gold Bars...I hope what Beaner is saying was some sort of miscommunication or something because you generally don't want to piss of the few that are sympathetic and could possibly offer you real help around here!

Also If you are a racist which I cannot confirm but I certainly have no reason to doubt Beaner if he insists that you are....that in my opinion makes you no better than the cheesy rats who fucked your rebills and closed your account.

Please clarify your position...why would you send Beaner a nasty email he certainly was backing you in the thread and so was I until this revelation?

I don't know why you or anyone would think its wrong to call people out when they feel they are being wronged. Ass-kissing is not the only way to get results.

This new Mastercard fee is pure bullshit and I for one think its wonderful that people are opting out. I started using my own merchant accounts through Netbilling a few years back and at $500 a year is was worth it to keep my 2 CCBill accounts and my Epoch account open. At $1000 a year it isn't. I let my Epoch account lapse yesterday and one of my CCbill accounts is due for renewal next week, I think I will take the opportunity to let MC know where they can stick it.

Great post and good for you! We did exactly the same opted out of mastercard thru ccbill after 8 years said fuck them simple as that.

I know 100% and can prove 100% which I won't do on gfy but 3rd party billing is and was a barrier to me making transactions and sales...period

It should be obvious the cheesy rats need to be cleaned out of this biz..for the overall better efficiency of everyone.

There has to be another way and a better way where they do not have all of the control and access to data, and transactions.

Everyone should remember despite what mark prince would have you believe we are the ones who are the engine of the industry the middle men simply transfer funds...no innovation or skill required...that is how you keep them in check remind them of whatthey really are and never refer to them as anything other than middle men.

example...good evening mr middle man I have an issue with my account.

How are you today mrs.middle man why are my transactions showing yo yo's

just keep reminding them in a subtle manner that you are the shot caller..and they are not.

It is a point that we may have to go to war over but we run this mother and they should conduct themselves in a manner that proves this fact.

They should not act like they can play fast and loose with accounts and individuals. Its an arrogance embedded in their genes and its disgusting

okay good luck I'm out

Watch this... he posts in this thread again I will screenshot the email and post it. I have a feeling he ain't gonna post again. Little fuck nugget could have had some gfy support and likely made some more money back, instead, he fucks it up.

Thank you VERY much for this information. As I've already stated I had already let go of the MC fee. But I need those re-bills back. That's 150-200$ a month and very old customers.

Thanks for the clarity, we all tend to overreact at times...you don't have to be white to be a racist LOL but glad to hear you are not a racist anyway.

We can all have different opinions on different things but where we should be united is against shady middle men and cheesy rats...we should form alliances and when the cheesy rats try funny business with one of us...we should pile up on them and make them think long and hard before they do it again.

We all know the sting of cheesy rat middle men just doing what the fuck they want to do with impunity taking monies that are not theirs and closing accounts and then coming to GFY and posting wanton lies thru their keyboards completely lying to the public trying to salvage and save their companies image!

I can assure you the power of the gfy support ticket...I used it recently to close out a past misunderstanding that most likely would not have been settled if not for the power of the gfy support ticket.

GoldBarsXXX 09-30-2013 08:56 AM

I contacted them to have my rebills moved to ccbill. Now they tell me they are gone.
Those were very old rebills amounting to about 250$ a month.

I also just realized that these people are ex-ibill people and you must know they like to solicit business and that's how they got me a few years ago.

Quoted for truth. Cathy and all of Segpay are excellent, honest, efficient, flexible and maybe most importantly, very helpful to both new and existing businesses. Goldbarsxxx I'm sorry dude but you handled this issue in the worst possible way. What you should have done is get someone on the phone, explain the issue, work it out and get a simple agreement by email. Bringing it to a public forum made you look bad, and made Segpay shine.

Please read the entire thread and you'll see how many shady things they've done. You're are on your own. They got me on board by soliciting and I know for a fact nothing good comes out of people soliciting.

Don't you have some sort of privacy policy? You really shouldn't be posting information such as how many rebilling members a client had on a public forum...

It is mark prince we are talking about...he is clueless

he does not realize his blind 100% public sac cleansing and allegiance of any middle man/3rd party biller is enough to make you vomit on your keyboard

just pretend you can not read his posts they are disconnected from reality and completely biased with an affinity towards defending shady billers while attacking the victims of shady billing

Kenny B! 01-05-2014 11:54 AM

I have accounts with just about every 3rd party billing company and have my own merchant accounts. I don't play favorites, so I can say that SegPay one of, if not the best of the 3rd party options out there.

From their support, to sales to scrub they are fantastic. Wires are never late, EVER!

Before you go calling them shady, might want to check facts... SegPay clients get paid directly by the bank, we get paid before they do.
