This company is a complete scam
We will be cancelling Crescent Processing Services for our credit card processing as soon as the contract is up in Sept. This company is a complete scam. We were bound by a contract. We lived up to our agreement, but they have not lived up to theirs. They hold onto funds for no reason. This is so they can draw interest on the money, while you are waiting and waiting for deposits to appear in your bank account...

Fraudulent Business Practices
account (thanks to Crescent Processing). I suggest that if you have had dealings with this company that you file a complaint with the FTC as well. They do not handle individual complaints, instead put the company in a database and investigate if there are numerous complaints about them...

Do not deal with this company unless you like to be cheated
I signed a 2 year contract with Crescent processing in April of 08 and at the time it seamed like a good deal. I have kept my end of the contract but it appears Crescent Processing dosn"t feal they need to keep there end of the contract. They have failed to keep there end of the contract from the start...

These people are scams
On 9/25/09 Crescent Processing called to inform me THEY would not approve the transaction and I was required to reverse the charges. Now my customer has my hardwood nailed to her floor and I don't have my money for my goods. Customer is very upset because she has already paid her credit card for the $6, 000 purchase...

Take money & add new fees without my knowledge
Crescent processing not make up fees and take money out of my companies account and don't think I will not noticed. I would never recommend a company that continues to take money & add new fees without my knowledge or said they gave me a 30 day notice on small print on the back of my statement in which will take money out of my account...

Be very careful
how Columbus band and Crescent processing will screw me if I decide I don't wish to business with them or if they feel at any time they wish they can remove copius amounts of money from my account at any time they think I might think about canceling their services. READ VERY CAREFULLY!!!...

Robbery
using the services of Crescent processing co. because I was not getting enough calls for credit cards. during the conversation with the representative nothing was said to me about a cancellation fee. The verbage in the contract is de-conversion fee. I never heard of a de conversion fee and I doubt anyone else would know what that is...

Scam
the equipment from Crescent Processing. We refused the package and told them to return it to the sender. Then I called the sales rep and told him that his company sent us the equipment and wanted to know what was was going on. He assured me that our application was never processed and that it was just a mistake that we received the equipment...

Failure to return funds
When I started using Crescent Processing, I was told that all Credit Card transactions would be completed and the moneys in my account in 24 hours. In truth it takes 6 days. I fired them, got out of the contract and started using my personal bank for the same service. When I broke the contract with Crescent Processing They never told me where to send the credit card machine to...

Lies and more lies
I was pressured to hear a sales pitch to take credit cards. The sales person was sent on the wrong date when we were not open and then came back again when
we were. He gave me his pitch and I told him I was not ready to accept cards, though I would eventually like to. He pleaded wit...

Don't make the same mistake I did, stay away from these guys
What looked/ sounded like a good deal on credit card processing has turned into a nightmare. The 1.64% base processing for credit cards has turned into monthly rates ranging from 4.05% to 6.22% after they add in all the fees and flim flam that were poorly explained by their rep. And to thi...

Crescent has been stealing from my bank account for a year
A sales person signed my company up with Crescent. Sales person had a fake contract, Crescent has been stealing for my bank account for a year. I'm going to Arkansas Attorney General, but It take time. Please Beware, tell the honest people. Surely there are good people in Texas.

This company is nothing but a joke
This company is nothing but a joke. They promise you everthing.. for example.. they say as soon as you make your sale they will pay that same day, and that is nothing but BS.. it took me 2 weeks to get paid on my sales... also they expect for us to go hook up the machine for the merchant a...

I cannot even see when they are screwing me
Nothing but increasing fees- fees never disclosed like Yearly Corp Fee. Rep never disclosed. Also never disclosed the Mid/Non qualified fees being almost 2% on top of the 1.6% they already charge. Called to complain- they said they could get me to a 1.59% non qual swipe. 3 months later cam...

The company is horrible and I will never do business with them again
I am a small business owner and I accept credit cards through Crescent. I cannot say I am happy with them. I told the sales rep most of my business is cash and checks and that I rarely have the need to accept credit cards. She told me no problem, we would not put a monthly minimum for you....

Scam and mis-presentation
Scott, a Cresent salesman, contacted me and stated he could save me money and buy out my current contracts by signing on with his company. He showed up at my business not once but twice to go over all the information and any questions I had. My major complaint was being told not only by Sc...

This is by far the most horrible company I have ever had the unfortunate experience of dealing with
This is by far the most horrible company I have ever had the unfortunate experience of dealing with. I read a review tonight, and verified that I was also lied to .I was told my contract was for two years, and now found that all contracts are for four years. My business burned down on Nove...

I will never work with this company simply because they continually hound us
I will never work with this company simply because they continually hound us. We get calls from this company all the time asking us to try them out. No matter how nicely we ask them to stop calling, they continue. It has gotten to the point where I personally keep track of their calls, so ...

I will not recommend this company to anyone else
The sales person came in and was very up front (he was brand new) even called his boss about ALL the questions that we had. Now the company is acting underhanded and will not pay for any referral fees and tacking on additional fees that both the salesperson and ourselves were unaware of. T...

Dont use them, don't work for them
I spent 3 weeks working for Crescent and I worked hard and made quite a few sales, now I wish I would have never set foot in any of those business because I have to live with the guilt of unknowingly lying to them. I walked out after I found out that my sales manager was not only lying to ...

We are going to lose our business because of them
This is just horrible. First of all, the rep wouldnt leave us alone at first, now that we need her, we can't find her. My husband misplaced her business card. I have called crescent many times. Every time I am told the same thing...we are in Texas and don't have her information.<...

Illegal and predatory business practices
Companies such as Crescent make the vast majority of their money by selling (actually leasing through a separate leasing company) the actual processing terminals/printers. These terminals/printers cost a company such as Crescent about $200 and they have the uneducated small business owner ...

Horrible company, stay far away
Horrible company, stay far away. Sales rep assured us that there was no early cancellation fee, no set term of service etc. Now that we found out that we were being over charged we want to cancel and go to our local bank which has a very good processing center. So we called Crescent to can...

This company held up funds because of a transaction that "flagged thier system"
This company held up funds (still not in our account after 6 days) because of a transaction that "flagged thier system". We occasionally use our Paypal debit card to transfer funds from Paypal to our business account. They told us that was a cash advance and illegal, that I had t...
