Delayed Payments

Possible Causes:

  • Incorrect recipient details, such as account numbers or names.

  • Banking holidays or technical processing delays.

  • Insufficient funds in the sender’s account.

  • Delays from the recipient’s bank.

How to Solve It:

  1. Verify Recipient Details: Double-check the account number, name, and other payment details before confirming the transaction.

  2. Check Account Balance: Ensure your account has sufficient funds to complete the payment.

  3. Contact the Bank: Reach out to your bank to confirm there are no technical issues or holds causing the delay.

  4. Communicate with the Recipient: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, confirm with the recipient whether they’ve received the payment or are facing delays on their end.

  5. Reach Out to Support: If the payment remains unresolved, contact Remoly Invoicing support team with the transaction details for further assistance.

Overdue Payment Requests

Possible Causes:

  • Forgetting to make a payment by the due date.

  • Miscommunication about payment deadlines.

  • Errors in payment processing.

How to Solve It:

  1. Understand the Request: Carefully review the overdue request to confirm the amount, due date, and payment details.

  2. Review Payment Records: Check your transaction history to confirm whether the payment was already made but not processed.

  3. Communicate with the Sender: Reach out to the individual or company requesting the payment to clarify any discrepancies.

  4. Make the Payment Promptly: If the payment is indeed overdue, settle it as soon as possible to avoid further delays or penalties.

  5. Discuss Payment Plans: If unable to pay in full, request a payment plan or alternative arrangement with the sender.

  6. Follow Up: After resolving the overdue request, confirm with the sender that the payment has been received and recorded.

Failed or Declined Payments

Possible Causes:

  • Incorrect payment details, such as an invalid card number or CVV.

  • Insufficient funds or credit limit issues.

  • Security blocks or fraud prevention measures from the payment processor.

  • Expired or inactive payment methods.

How to Solve It:

  1. Check Payment Information: Verify that all entered details—including card number, expiration date, and CVV—are accurate.

  2. Ensure Sufficient Funds: Confirm that your account or card has enough balance or available credit to cover the payment.

  3. Contact the Payment Processor: Reach out to your bank or card issuer to check if there are any holds or restrictions on your account.

  4. Update Payment Method: If the current payment method is inactive or expired, use an alternative payment method.

  5. Retry the Payment: Once corrections are made, attempt the transaction again.

  6. Reach Out to Support: For persistent issues, contact Remoly Invoicing support team for assistance and troubleshooting.

Tips to Prevent Payment Issues

  1. Double-Check Payment Details: Avoid typos and ensure all recipient details are correct before confirming transactions.

  2. Monitor Account Activity: Regularly check your payment history for unusual activity or unresolved transactions.

  3. Enable Notifications: Turn on alerts to stay updated on transaction statuses and due dates.

  4. Update Payment Methods: Keep your cards and linked accounts current to prevent declined payments.

  5. Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Add an extra layer of security to your account to avoid unauthorized access.
