My wife tried to cash a $22.00 check at Albertsons Grocery store and the check was declined. Upon talking to a manager in the store I determined that they are using a check verification service called Certegy. I located a phone number and called them with a response that there was no derogatory...

This is a horrible company. They refuse or red flag checks for no reason. They refuse to explain what is going on. Marshall's, T.J. Maxx, Target, Walgreens, Restoration Hardware all use this company.

What an embarrassment....

I pay by check just for almost anything I purchase on the outside. Last month I went to my local Best Buy Electronics store as I was in the market for a new Laptop computer. The purchase price was well over $2000.00 and when I went to pay for it I asked if I could pay by personal check and I...

I too tried to cash my check at Wal-Mart and was declined. When I called Certegy to find out what the problem was, I was informed the decline did not have anything to do with my information, but it had to do with the company that wrote the check. She stated that they just needed to update some...

As I was reading through all the other complaints I kept wandering......why can't we do something about this company? I have been fighting with them since August 07 when my check was denied to Eyemasters. They told me to send in a Certegy Gold Application, and I wouldn't have anymore...

I visited Wal-Mart today, as usual, and tried to cash my P/R check for just under $600.00 and was declined by Certegy Check Services because of "possible fraudulent practices" and "idenity theft" and could not be over-ridden. They would not explain why but they did encourage...

On 18 Mar 08, I attempted to write a check for grocery purchase at a local grocery store chain in North Hampton, NH. The check was not authorized for the purchase. I have written checks for purchases at this and other of their stores over the years. There has never been a problem until this....

We received a phone call that a check written to Albertson's Grocery Store was returned marked "Unable to locate account." Through conversation with them, it was determined that the check was misrouted to a Credit Union in Memphis, Tennessee (my bank is in Florida). I spoke...

On 6/23/2009 I checked out of a store that I frequent (Target), averaging 3-4 transactions per month, wrote a check, on an account opened for five plus years, with my drivers license verified, which was declined. While the sales clerk was very friendly, all that she could offer was a slip of...

During processing of my check to Cracker Barrel, Cracker Barrel's local bank processed the first two digits of routing number as a 2-8 instead of 2-9, so my check was never submitted to my bank for proper withdrawl of funds. Instead of checking into the matter, Cracker Barrel sent the check...

My check was declined. I had more than enough funds available to cover the check. No one at the store could tell me why my check was declined.

The first time I heard about Certegy was when they were calling me about a bounced check to a company called Wild West--apparently a web hosting company. I'd never heard of either of them. I told them, it's not my debt, I've never heard of you or them. Also the check was trying...

My husband travels. He occasionally writes a check from his check book. He obviously has a different check book than I do. We can't share the same set of checks when we are not in the same town. We happened to be together today shopping at Walgreens. I wrote a check to pay for our purchase...
