Check Your Easy Pays

Grade1Teach — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 20:21:57 GMT

I'm sorry if this has been posted already.

I know not everyone uses Easy Pay, so this post might not be for you. However, many of us do (myself included) and it is worth taking a look at your Order Status page as soon as you can.

I was on the QVC facebook group a few minutes ago and there are a few posts about a glitch in their system for easy pays. Apparently easy pays that were supposed to be taken out in June/July were not taken out and QVC has decided to take them out now. Unbeknownst to them, many people have easy pays that are past due on their accounts (in big red letters on their order status page). Some easy pays were taken out and now they are being taken out again (per several people on the fb page). QVC said they are aware of this error and they are trying to correct it, but customers are understandably upset.

I just went onto my own Order Status page and saw that I also have a Past Due notice on my account. The money comes out AUTOMATICALLY on easy pays, so I'm really not sure what is going on. I have decided to give it a few days before calling. I'm hoping they figure this out and correct it.

Please check your accounts when you have time. It sounds like it is a mess for many people. They are being locked out of their accounts right now.

I have been paying off my easy pays over the last several weeks and I do not intend to use it anymore. It's very upsetting that a huge corporation such as QVC should make this kind of mistake. Lesson learned.

Yup. My husband was notified and he is NOT happy. They should be held responsible for any overdrawn charges.

@rms1954

I'm sorry that it is happening to you as well. It seems that some people are being double-charged or their account has been frozen "in billing," for several weeks (that's part of their glitch), which makes the payment late. That seems to be what happened to me on one item (for now).

I actually called QVC a week or two ago because I noticed an extra charge on my bank account. It was a very strange phone call. Customer service had no explanation other than to tell me that they "forgot" to bill me in June and they are billing me now instead. Again, QVC is such a huge corporation. How can mistakes like this be happening? My husband couldn't get over their response either.

I didn't make a big deal out of it and went on my merry way... until now. This is over the top and completely unacceptable.

This just happened to me. In fact, I couldn't get on to post or purchase. They are automatically put on my AmEx card. For some reason, two of them didn't go through.

It took at least 5 phone calls and even more emails to straighten it out. Initially, I was told it was a glitch in their system. Their fault and not mine. . .which makes sense since other easy pays were going through on the same card. However, I was told that I couldn't order until they got it straightened out. I gave it two week and called again. This time I was told "it happens all the time." But again, no ordering until they fixed it.

This is one of the reasons, I'm no longer using easy pay.

@Grade1Teach , thank you for sharing this information. I have one item on 4 ez pays. The date the 1st ez pay was charged on my CC was on 6/3.

After checking today, nothing was taken out in July with the exception of it being taken out today.

It shows the 3rd and 4th to be taken on 8/3 and 9/3. I will be watching for it.

No one should be seeing a late charge or charged a late charge because of their lack of billing.

This is one of the main reasons I haven't ordered anything else, though reading how many are waiting for orders hanging "in the process" is another reason. I don't have that problem with their sister company, at least not yet.

@Jannygaz

That's unbelievable!

It's scary to hear that this "happens all the time." How can that be?!? I have been using the easy pay feature for a couple of years now on certain items (not everything) and I have NEVER had a problem. If any of us would have known that this is a common occurrence, we wouldn't be using easy pay.

I just paid off another item a few minutes ago. I'll wait until that posts with my bank and then pay something else off. I only have a few things left, but I need to make sure everything goes through as it should before moving onto the next thing. I'm afraid of being double-charged, which is happening to people.

@HisElk1

I'm happy to share this information with others. I know not everyone is on fb, so I thought I should spread the word. I am hoping that more people keep calling to complain so that QVC does everything in their power to fix this. Some people have said this has been going on for weeks. That is completely unacceptable.

It's funny you should mention 6/3. That's the date of the easy pay I'm having trouble with. The last payment on record for the item was on 6/3 and the next one was supposed to be 7/3. Apparently it never went through and it's "in billing" today. They have a red flag on my account as if I am the one who didn't pay, which obviously isn't true. My last easy pay for that is 8/3. I can't wait to pay it off once they clear this up.

FranandZoe — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 21:16:11 GMT

Thanks so much for the heads up!

I have two that are past due both from 6/28. I called CS and it was like someone who had no idea what they were doing altho he said they had a lot of calls on this and that it was a tech issue.

I have another one due today - I'll have to check tomorrow and see if it's paid.

I'm paying off all my easy pays - no more for me.

What a mess this company has become - in so many different areas.

Jannygaz — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 21:15:20 GMT

Grade1Teach That was my reaction when they said "it happens all the time and chuckled saying "don't worry about it." I'm not used to seeing big red banners that say "you have past due payments" when I look at my account.

@Grade1Teach Thanks for posting. I only had two orders on easy pay (I sometimes forget to edit it to one payment). Looks like my June payments went through, and my July easy pays were later this month. Only had two on one item left, and 3 on another, so just pushed them to pay the balances off. I didn’t have any from July 3 though. Always good to check. Thanks for sharing.

Roscoe the Rascal — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 21:31:38 GMT

I have two that show late. Can't be because I use Q card and pay off each month when I get the notice due. Happened once before. I will have to check more often.

Thanks for the shout out.

@Grade1Teach I put several things on Easy Pay when I stopped getting my items. Well, now I have lost track of what I have paid and have no hope of ever finding it out.

Since the Denim and Co. pants are no more, and this whole year has been a mess beginning with the fire and jewelry items never shipped then wrong items shipped, I'm done I think. I feel like the fork has been stuck in one too many times.

They have been aware of this for a couple weeks or more and never notified anyone until now, and that's if you call to ask "what is going on."

Re: Check Your Easy Pays

It happened to me too. Two EZ pays that were supposed to be taken out on July 1 & 2nd was not, but I was never notified until a few days ago I saw past due in bold RED. I quickly paid them, but I was afraid that maybe I was double billed. I tried reading my credit card statements, but some are not ready yet because they are for the month of July. We should have been notified either in writing or by email.

@Grade1Teach

Thank you I just checked my account and found I too have past due. There is no reason these didn't go thru and if they want to be paid then QVC can correct it🤬🤬

I'm not paying it as it states because getting my double billing amount would be a bigger nightmare I'm sure!!!

I just noticed for a exchange that QVC refunded vs exchanged (although item available) I was charged $6.95. I plan to go thru my statements because I'm sure they're are other errors. Then I'll contact QVC.

ruthbe — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 23:43:08 GMT

when I got paid...I went and paid several easy pays...well they stayed in billing for far too long . I called my bank and was told the problem was not on thir end. The charges were approved. It was on QVC end. I contacted customer service...they didn't know anything. I contacted customer care...I was told an update was being done to the finance/IT department. I paid my easy pays the end of June and early July. I posted this

mid July. I was not the only one who had these issues.

If I was the head of that department and was holding up all of these charges....I would be worried. That has to be a lot of money. QVC doesn't care about us...they care about

money...So I cannot figue out why this hasn't been fixed sooner....It is holding up a lot of money. Not all of my easy pays have cleared yet.

Re: Check Your Easy Pays

No issues with mine, up to date through July. Last and final in August.

Re: Check Your Easy Pays

homedecor1 — Thu, 21 Jul 2022 01:54:09 GMT

Guess QVC fixed the ez pay mess because I just got notified from my cc they deducted the ez pays tonight.

Glad I didn't pay them ...

Re: Check Your Easy Pays

Grade1Teach — Thu, 21 Jul 2022 09:00:47 GMT

@homedecor1

They fixed mine too!

I checked late last night and noticed that those big red letters had disappeared and the easy pay amount posted to my account. All seems well... for now.

Yes, I am glad I didn't pay it off either. I think that would have caused even more confusion. Since QVC was aware of the issue, I was hopeful that they would correct it. However, I honestly don't think I'll ever know if I was double-billed or not at this point. I had a few things on easy pay with similar dollar amounts and it would be a painstaking process to go through each and every one. I do check on my account daily, so I will have to continue to keep a close eye on it that way.

I will continue to pay off what I owe and be done with easy pay. It's really not cool when a company makes a mistake where your hard-earned money is concerned. It's not acceptable for them to take money out of your account whenever they please. Yes, the money was supposedly owed to them, but to remove money from an account weeks later than the scheduled payment date is just plain WRONG. Some people plan their finances out to the exact amount and could have run low on funds or been over their credit limit.

Something needs to change big time over there.

I use full EZ on every single thing I order...ever since it was invented.

This is NOT a common occurance...has never happened to me b4.

I showed 4 late payments yesty.

Today they are all cleared up.

There are NO late fees associated with Q billing the EZ payments late.

always good to watch, but no big deal IMHO.
