Be careful with this company....

I have been in business for over 20 years. I have excellent credit and great partnerships with other financial companies. Go Cardless tied up a huge almost $30,000 payment for over 2 weeks and ultimately cancelled my account with no explanation. I am warning you to be wary of this company. I have never experienced anything like this in my carrier. There are other companies out there, save yourself a potential headache and go with a different provider.

Response from GoCardless

Thank you for your review, sorry to hear about your experience. We are required to complete a number of different verification checks on merchant accounts as a condition of being an FCA regulated Authorised Payment Institution. As a result, ultimately, a merchant's ability to use GoCardless as a payment processor depends on the successful completion of these checks. We'll reach out to you on your request.

Limited to no support

Dear Go Cardless - and I presume this is an automated AI response To give context _ I had a problem with my stripe payments I jumped on to the Stripe site, logged in and asked for help within 3 minutes!!!! I had received a call back phone call, had an amazing person who helped me through the issues - RESOLVED! And now I am back in business Gocardless by comparison is just a bunch of idiotic emails which look like an AI bot GoCardless is a waste of time I am not proceeding with setting up Go cardless

Works well with Xero Invoicing

Gocardless has made collecting payments from very straightforward when done in conjunction with Xero invoices.

They charge processing fees for failed transactions

It has been ok on the most part. The biggest problem is that they charge processing fees for failed transactions. I believe when a client has not entered there details correctly or it doesnt go through for whatever reason, then the business should not be punished for this.

Thank you for the review, your feedback is so important to us! We are sorry to hear that you are not happy about the submission fee. I would like to give a little bit more information about why we have changed to a submission model. We work with various banks as part of our payment processing system. Every payment request is sent through these banks, and GoCardless incurs a certain fee for each transaction, even if it fails. Initially, we did not charge for such failed payments as our focus was on collecting fees only after a successful transaction. We have now decided to take a different approach. Please reach out to help@gocardless.com for more information. Apologies for the inconvenience this situation has caused.
