      No longer need service and want to cancel/ delete the tax liability and future payments. They keep taking the payment ( the irs is getting it). and I cant get into the website and they dont answer the phone. The temp passwords they keep sending me do not work. Ive been trying to contact them for over a month now, everyday. Sent them messages using their contact form and called several times everyday. They are a bad company and I need this rectified right now.

      On April 14, 2024, I used the services of Pay1040.com to pay my mother-in-law's 2023 taxes. I received a receipt and confirmation of payment. I was also charged a service fee. On June 3, I received a CP14 letter from the *** stating that my mother-in-law's taxes had not been paid, and she was being charged penalties and interest for the late payment. I have been attempting to contact Pay1040.com by email and phone since that day. I have spent more than eight hours on hold with the company phone tree. I have been hung up on 4 times and cut off without reaching an agent 3 times. I still have not received a response to my email contacts. My mother-in-law and I have never been late in making a payment to the ***. The *** was gracious enough to halt the penalties and interest until July 9, 2024, but since I have not resolved the issue with Pay1040.com, I am being forced to pay the taxes again with the penalty and interest added. I paid $3,533.00 for taxes with an $87.97 service fee. In addition, I have had to pay $73.37 for penalty and interest to the ***. I would like a refund and repayment for the service fee and the penalty interest for a total of $161.34.

      On 4/15/2024, my husband and I submitted our *** tax payment via the pay1040.com website. On 6/3/2024 we received an *** notice stating that our payment has not been received and we owe the original tax amount plus interest and fees. We contacted the *** and provided our payment confirmation # and EFT #. The *** stated that we needed to call pay1040.com to see whats going on. We have called daily and have been on hold in excess of three hours without reaching anyone at pay1040.com. We have also submitted several contact requests via their website, which states that they will respond within 24 hours. Its been weeks and we havent heard from anyone and are still unable to reach a representative. Meanwhile, our payment has still not been processed by pay1040.com. We contacted our credit company and because we paid more than 30 days ago they cannot reverse the charge and they have confirmed that the payment has already been processed. We are beyond angry and frustrated at the complete lack of communication and inability to reach anyone at pay1040.com to resolve this. We do not recommend processing payments via this site. And we are considering hiring an attorney to pursue the matter further.

      On 13 April 2024, my wife and I filed our 2023 taxes and submitted them through a third party tax preparer (H&R Block). When filing, we chose to pay through credit card, and were directed to pay1040.com as an agency that is able to take credit payment for the **** Even the *** website (****GOV) advises pay1040.com. We paid pay1040.com immediately with our credit card on 13 April, the full amount owed to our Federal taxes, which was $3805.00, and the credit card has proof of this transaction going through/approved as well. The confirmation number for the pay1040.com transaction is *******. Fast forward to present-day - I received an *** non-payment notice on 03 June 2024, stating that not only had the *** not received payment for my Federal taxes, but now there are incurred penalties and interest. Presently, the *** wants $3884.02 with the added fees. When I received the notice from the ***, I immediately called pay1040.com number on their website (Phone: ************** (TTY: 711) Hours: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week). I have literally sat on hold to speak with a representative that can help me 4 times, for over 3 hours each time, waiting for a supposed customer service representative from their company to take my call and rectify the issue. I have called during the day, late in the evening, doesn't matter - never had any success reaching this company. Each time, without fail, the call suddenly drops near the 3rd hour. Sometimes the hold music stops, and is silent, for an hour or so, and then comes back on later. There is never anyone that answers. I have also submitted my information/concern via their webform (***********************************************) - no response to that either. Upon further online reading and investigating, I see that I am one of MANY, MANY dissatisfied customers, with the exact same issue. *** never receives the payment, and no way to contact this company. That is the very definition of fraudulent behavior.

      The *** accepted the payment but may not have yet processed the payment to the point that it reflects as pending in your *** account. Please call the *** and provide them with your payment's EFT Reference Number for further assistance.

      Hard to understand why not getting a reply from Link2Gov or Pay1040?  I added additional detail to this complaint per IRS.  Radio Silence.  Sending an email via their support pages results in "delivery failures". tired six times.   And their support phone number kicks you off after holding a half hour.  Nearly a dozen phone call attempts resulted in reaching ZERO reps.  

       

      Basically Pay1040 needs to call me so they can enter the correct SSN in my payment to IRS.  The number they entered I have never seen before.   My SSN number ends with 706 (not 251)

      We've been in contact with the *** concerning unapplied payments, they responded to us stating:

      "Currently, we are encouraging taxpayers to use their Online Account to see pending electronic payments. Taxpayers with an *** account can login to their accounts at www.irs.gov and research to determine if we have received their payment and are working to correct the error. Taxpayers will see a pending payment note in the Payment Activity Section of their online account. Taxpayers who do not have an *** online account, can visit www.irs.gov and follow the steps to create an account."  

      The *** has also provided us with the confirmation # (*** reference number) that they have assigned to your payment.  Your *** reference number is 268450731203385.

      The *** payment date will be equal to the date your transaction was authorized and completed. Payments are posted to your account by the *** using the information you provided on Pay1040.com.

      I just logged onto IRS.  NOTHING changed.  Still owe $1,8xx  And NO payments are pending.     Someone at linktogov needs to tell that They  somehow plugged in someone elses ssn with my payment.  I have no idea whose number that is.  HELP please!!!   I did nothing wrong and ********* has done nothing to fix this beyond sending dum dum blanket emails.  

      linktogov or pay1040 have ZERO phone support.  I was on phone with IRS for 1 1/2 hours.  They could not fix it due to system limitations.    
      BAD BAD BUSINESS.  HR ***** has said they will stop recommending them to their tax clients.

      Thank you for using Pay1040s ********************** at www.pay1040.com for your federal tax payment this season.

       The taxpayer ID that was submitted with the payment was the taxpayer ID that was entered by the taxpayer. Per our contract with the **** we cannot modify any of the data.

       

      You can call our call center and request that we submit a missing payment form to the **** on your behalf. Please note that it can ***********,8+ months for the *** to respond to the request. In *** of this, the *** has provided us with the payment confirmation number (*** Reference #) that they assigned to your payment (***************), so that you can call and work with them directly to correct the payment, which would be considerably faster than submitting a missing payment form.
