What do you dislike about GoCardless?
So far, its been over 9 days and the company still has my money.
My account was approved in a flurry of emails with their verification dept. The next day, I received an email which i missed that said, 'we need additional information before we can approve your account.' This was after the company had charged my client's bank account.
Even though I missed that email, I did log in to their system several times over several days to check status. No notices that my account was on hold showed up anywhere.
Now, even though my request was put on 'rush' status, there has been no response from the verification team.
Customer service has no power, and they refuse to escalate to someone in the company that does.
Beyond this, the implementation and integration process with Xero is awful. Multiple calls and emails to GoCardless customer service were required to get things to work.
The system is also not easy to use if you have problems. It looks straightforward from a design perspective, but if there are issues, its baffling. What does "Payout" vs "Collected" mean? Shouldn't an ACH transfer go straight from my client's bank to mine? Instead, this seems to indicate that it sits in GoCardless' bank for a period of time. This isn't explained anywhere.
