  Our daycare business did not authorize 2 separate $99 charges onto our business account. No business was done with this company and it is an absolute scam. This compony is to be immediately reported and/or investigated.

  We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and understand your concern. The charges you referenced are related to HIRECLICK'S services, as Asure recently acquired *********. As a result, billing now reflects the Asure name. Our ********* team has attempted to reach out to you to clarify this matter and assist with any necessary adjustments, but we have not yet received a response. Please let us know a convenient time to connect so we can resolve this issue as soon as possible.

  Business refuses to cancel renewal services. They did not offer renewal notices, and the sales people did not disclaimer the strict cancellation process. The issue is not that they need time to process a cancel of their services, the problem is that if you miss a very brief window precisely 60 days before the renewal they will not honor your request, and bill you for another year of services. They also refuse to remove my account form automatic payments, which will cause me to close my bank account to stop the recurring transaction. Look, I abided by the contract for 12 months per agreement, they never fulfilled their end by filing amended returns. I am simply looking to discontinue their services moving forward and do not wish to pay another year, or be penalized for not receiving a renewal reminder. They also provide very poor service, which is dissatisfactory when reaching out to them, another reason I do not wish to continue paying them . My resolution is simple, please discontinue my renewal, 5/31/24 and stop billing me for a renewal term. i do not wish to use your services any longer.

  We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction. At Asure, we strive for clarity and transparency in all our communications and agreements. According to our records, the terms and conditions of our contract, including the cancellation policy, were communicated clearly at the outset. While we understand your concerns, our team has responded to your queries through correspondence from multiple representatives, ensuring you were not ignored. Please reach out to us directly if you have any questions.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  I am requesting cancellation of your services in advance of the renewal. Your response neither acknowledged this nor provided anything specific regarding the account. It is a vague statement you use across the board.

  The terms were not outlined and highlighted as the 12 month term was presented as necessary in order to have 941x filings processed, which was an additional fee. 

  The representatives did not reach out in a fashion to seek resolution, but in the same manner you have simply telling me I am wrong, using vague statements and wording to present yourselves as passive and calm, attempting to portray anyone complaining as the opposite. 

  I do not wish to continue your services and want my renewal terminated. Additionally, I have not received response back regarding removal of automatic payments, which I have requested more than once and have had no answer or confirmation. 

  Please cancel your services effective 5/31/24, and remove my account from auto pay immediately. 

  Please also provide 3 items:

  1) the contract with automatic renewal status

  2) the renewal notice!

  3) the direct debit authorization

  I do not know why you would want to FORCE a client to be a client, when they clearly want to terminate services. This is a termination request in advance of you providing any services, so you are not out time or money. 

  Lastly, I have tried reaching out direct, with no success. This is such a typical problem, no one even escalates to management. On CSR level employees have replied. The salesperson still yet to reply.

  My name is *********************** from **********. I did business with ******************* at Asure Software. As my contract with Asure Software, **** would help me apply for Employee Retention Tax Credit. He would do all the paperwork and in return I have to pay 10% of the amount received from the **** And I wont be charged with any additional services or charges. I clearly indicated to **** that I do not need any additional services from Asure Software.I only received 50% of what was promised from **** through *** but was charged 100% fee (10% of calculated amount) from Asure Software.I did contact **** multiple times about this, and he assured me that he would take care of it. He told me that I do not need to contact anyone else, or I do not need to take any further steps. At this point, they withdrew the full amount from my account by monthly ACH. Even after withdrawing the full amount from my account, they will keep withdrawing money every month from my account until I give them verbal notice to stop charging me after I pay my 10%. So as of now, instead of 10% I was charged almost 20% since I only received 50% from the **** I have given them verbal notice and email notice so many times that I have received only 50% from *** and do not withdraw any more from my account.It should be ***** responsibility to inform his superiors about my intentions and conversations with him. I should not be charged extra for his lack of communication within the organization.At this point, I demand my money back from Asure Software. I learned from some other business colleagues that, Asure estimates higher refund amount from the *** only to get client and once they get client, they charge them as per that higher estimated refund amount even though the actual amount received from the *** is very low.

  Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We take all feedback seriously and have reviewed the specifics of your account in detail, in collaboration with our team. Based on our findings, all services and billing align with the agreements outlined in the contracts you signed with Asure Software. The variance in the expected credit amount was due to existing tax balances, which have been appropriately addressed. If you have further questions or require clarification on any points, we are available for a discussion.

  I am rejecting this response because:
  They still doing ACH monthly payment which  need to be stopped 

  As mentioned earlier I paid 100% of fees and received only half credit.

  They want me to give another 60days of time for stop payment of ACH which does not make any sense It looks like FRAUD to me. I spoke with my sales rep **** number of time about cancellation and it looks to me he didnt forward message to cancellation team so its not my problem or fault.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  Asure is refusing to even consider what I am trying to communicate here. I did not receive full 100% credit as promised but was charged by Asure as if I received the full credit. I need my fees back for the credit amount that I haven't received but have been charged by Asure.

  I was in constant contact with Asure sales rep **** who was keep assuring me that he has closed my contract and everything and I won't be charged. It is not my problem that he might have missed to communicate my intentions to higher level managers at Asure. **** is only contact person for me to communicate.

  October of 2022,*************************,a from Asure contacted me asking to file our ERC claiming that he could help us maximize our returns at the lowest cost to us.He was willing to reduce the fee charged from 15% to 7.5% due to the volume of our refund. He assured me that we would only pay once we got paid from the ***.I received an email with an invoice with a due date on it.So, I e-mailed him saying that I received an invoice with a due date.He told me not to worry about it and e-mailed me saying,we do not take anything until after the funds have been issuedWhile we waited, his collection department kept calling me weekly asking me to pay the full fee amount. His name was ***************************He said that if it was his business, he would pay the full $100,000 fee before he got paid by the ***.He said thats the way he operated.He liked things clean, indicating that the way I was doing things was not. I told him only a fool would pay $100,000 fee without receiving the *** money.He said OK, but continued to call me every other day for months to ask for the fee before I received the money and I continued to deny him. Eventually, I received some checks, about 30% of what we were to receive, and I paid 7.5% of the amount received.********* Holiday continued to call me for the rest of the fee stating that I should do things cleanly and pay the fee before I received the rest of the *** money.I continued to deny him.After many calls, on September 28th,I checked my account, and they took the rest of the fee from my account without telling me. The collection department said that I had to pay the full amount regardless of what the sales rep had told me.I **** them the snip of the email where I confirmed with the sales rep that we would not have to pay until the *** funds were issued to us, but they said that it didnt matter.Now *****, his manager and ********* are all avoiding my calls.I set a calendar meeting with *****'s link and he didn't show up for the meeting.

  I am rejecting this response because:  I need this money to run my business.  I appreciate that you guys are working to get this resolved for me, but you guys took $55,000 from my account without telling me and I can't even pay my employees.  This is the worst thing to happen to me in my 13 years of business.  ************************* told me that if I worked with you guys, I would only have to pay once I was paid by the IRS.  I'm still waiting for the money and you guys took all the fee before I got paid.  The worst part of all is that you guys kept calling me and pressing me to pay the full fee before I was fully paid and I said, "NO, I'll only pay once I get paid as ***** had explained to me."  Your collector ************************** kept saying, "if it was my business, I would pay the full fee upfront before I got paid because I like to do things cleanly."  I let him know that I didn't care how he liked to do things and that I wouldn't pay until I got paid as agreed upon.  Regardless of my response, he continued to call my weekly asking me to pay the full fee.  Eventually, he stopped calling and just TOOK IT FROM ME by ACH.

  Upon thorough review of our records and the terms of our agreement with you, we affirm that the fees assessed are in strict adherence to the contractual agreement you signed. We have taken multiple steps to ensure clarity and transparency in our communications regarding our fee structure and the invoicing process.
  

  In October 2022, you were invoiced as per the agreement's stipulations, which, as we have previously discussed, do not state that fees will be drafted only upon the receipt of funds from the **** Instead, the agreed-upon percentage applies to the amounts as they are processed in accordance with the services provided by Asure. For your reference and clarity, attached is the pertinent section of the contract you signed.

  This section clearly delineates the terms under which the fees were to be calculated and charged. Based on the *** transcripts, it has been confirmed the *** has issued refunds related to our ERTC filing on your behalf. Thus, our fees were correctly applied in accordance with the contractual terms.

  Asure was handing our ********************** LP) payroll. After numerous mistakes, we decided to switch to a different company. One of the mistakes, which we found out about later, was they failed to file the School District Withholding return with the **** **** of ******** in 2021. We notified them of this error and provided them with the documentation from ****. After numerous followup on our part, and the passage of almost a year, we finally received an email from a ************************************* email address, dated 2/7/23, that contained a computer generated spreadsheet. On the spreadsheet with Client ID listed as *****, it says they had "completed request". I assumed that meant they had paid the tax and penalty. However, on 2/24/23 I got an email from **** **** of ******** showing the tax had been paid, but not the $500 penalty. I emailed this on to Asure on March 7th and have heard no response. The penalty goes up if not paid in 60 days, which is 4/24/23. As of today, 4/11/23, I still have heard nothing back from Asure. The only name we have is *****************************, which was copied on an email. I sent out another email this morning, but have heard nothing.

  I allowed Assure to begin processing my payroll after my previous cpa retired, beginning September of 2022, and there were taxes due for prior payroll. I told this to ******************************* and even texted it twice that these taxes would be due and I expected them to handle it. Nobody at this company has even acknowledged that I told them this even though I have repeatedly shared the texts with them. They just ignore these texts. They are blaming this situation on me and my prior payroll company. On November 26th I received a letter from the irs saying taxes have not been paid for September 15th or October 17th. Assure has not given me any explanation why taxes for October were not paid, but they blame the September taxes on my previous cpa despite my telling them they were due. Had Assure handled this professionally, admitted a mistake, and handled the situation promptly, then it would be fine. But this took multiple calls over two weeks, multiple emails, their not answering questions, not explaining, and in the end, they were still a day late processing my payment. It took great effort on my part to get this taken care of and they were shifting me around from one person to another and really made it difficult. I also had to pay $500 to a cpa to verify if the payment tax amount due was correct because Assure could not provide me with that information. I made the decision to hire another payroll company and quit Assure because of my dissatisfaction. The problem is, they are saying I owe them for a full year contract. I was confused the whole time I was filling out the paperwork. It was a complicated process and I was unaware I would owe them for a year even if I was unhappy with their service. Had they handled this situation properly, I would not have fired them. They still have not even admitted that I told them twice in text messages that these taxes were due before services commenced and they still have not explained to me why they ignored that.

  Summertime Heat and Air previously raised concerns about Incorrect Tax ********* **************** Requests, and *** Log In updates. Asure apologizes for any inconvenience that the Summertime Heat and Air may have felt. Once Asure was advised of any concerns, we made sure to address them quickly.  We thank you for bringing this to our attention so we can try to work through any outstanding issues.
  
  Asure inherited a tax issue from Summertime Heat and Airs previous payroll provider who was his ***. The business *** was retiring and would not be providing future tax services or payroll. According to the previous ***, the business owed back payroll taxes. The business owner stated he could not reach his previous ***, so the taxes did not get paid prior to setting up his account with Asure. We advised Summertime Heat and Air that Asure would make an exception and collect and pay the inheritance tax issues with Summertime Heat and Air. Asure assisted in helping fix the previous tax issues. The business owner also had a few concerns regarding communication between him and his CSR at Asure so as per his request we swiftly made the change. A few weeks later, the business owner asked for the *** login to be updated and Asure sent the paperwork needed to set up new *** access. Once the paperwork was received, we resolved the *** login as requested. It is our understanding all concerns have been resolved.
  
  If the business owner has any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Asure.

  I am rejecting this response because: My concerns were not addressed swiftly. In fact, it took ten days for me to have any response to the initial problem and the payment was still made a day late. It took over two months for this BBB complaint to be answered. Thats not very swift. This issue had nothing to do with an inheritance tax or any problems with my previous cpa. This resulted from an issue caused by Assure because I told them twice by text that I had taxes due at the time I hired Assure. Assure did not do what I asked of them, so I fired them. We did get a hold of the previous cpa who sent all the documents to Assure which showed that taxes were due. This response has not addressed the root of my complaint which is the payment for the remainder of the year they have demanded. Now that they mention the login issues my current cpa experienced, that is another example of the many problems I had with this payroll company. Also, I had to pay my current cpa $500 to research the problems caused by the failure of these tax payments because Assure was not providing answers.  In addition, I recently received an email that they had some kind of transmission issue resulting in more late payments to the **** which they promised to correct. . And although Assure blames me and my previous cpa for the payments not made in September (which I told them were due) they have not explained or accounted for the tax payments they failed to make for October. I have had none of these kinds of problems with my current payroll company. Everything has been smooth sailing since firing Assure. I feel that I had a right to fire them, and it was necessary to fire them, and it is not fair for me to continue paying for their service without using it, with all the problems I had with them.

  Asure takes great care to ensure that important matters such as this are properly managed. Due to the customers experience, we have clearly not succeeded in meeting your expectations. In light of this, we have decided to no longer enforce the contract, which we hope will be acceptable to you. Please contact Asure should you have any further causes for concern.

  *** Payroll / Asure Software was my payroll company. They failed to pay my *** Payroll Taxes for the 2nd Quarter 2022. ******************** billed me $128.72, which includes interest for the late payment of this tax bill. I've inquired with the company, but they have failed to provide me with any information why they didn't pay my taxes that they were responsible for. I'd like them to give me a reason and then refund me the taxes they collected from me and then did not pay to the State. I want them to stop ignoring me, which is their habit.
