Since 2009, wageworks as steadily been increasing the verification of charges made to my account. All of the charges I have made have been for out of pocket expenses for medical and or dental charges not paid by my insurance company. On 5/27/2011 I spent over an hour trying to get assistance, because they said via email: YOUR CARD PRIVILEGES HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED
Your Health Care Card privileges have been suspended because you have not submitted appropriate receipts or repayments for any card transactions with Receipt or Repayment Needed. You were notified of your need to submit receipts or repayment for card transactions either via email or postal mail. I have sent numerous faxes, as did the medical provider for these same expenses they said they never received. I have recently just spent the last 4 hours sending them via the internet ALL of the EOB's or forms from my insurance coverages showing all the information that wageworks required. Now its the beginning of Memorial weekend, and they froze my card. I have a prescription I need for pain for an illness I have, and I am out of pain medicine for this illness. When I tried to explain that to wageworks customer service, the supervisor felt it was more important for them to explain that the money on the account is really, "a loan from the company my husband works", stating it was, "a benefit of a loan". After explaining to him I needed to get prescriptions filled over the weekend, twice I was put on hold for over 15 minutes. The last time I was put on hold, the company actually closed the business and he left me on hold for over an hour...I only hung up to call back and it was too late, the company had closed for the weekend. I want to send a formal complaint to someone about the company, but there is noone available to take the complaint because their customer service does not have an outlet/form/protocal for complaints. They just say, "we never got the paperwork". I also wanted to complain about the abuse of unverified charges. How many times can they ask for verification per year. Most times it is always from the same provider or dental charges, then wageworks, just threatens you by saying, "if they don't the paperwork, then the IRS can come after the account holder (me)". I am sick of their abuse and threats and ignorance. They get people on the phone that laugh at you, they don't take you serious, they don't care about the people (account holders), they are irresponsible with legal medical documents. There is NO place to talk to anyone about the problems, because they simply do NOT CARE!!!

If the charge is coming from a medical or dental office what more verification does Wage Works need?? Call the Dentist if that is not enough. There really isn't any more verification that should be needed.

I am experiencing the very same problems with Wageworks. They convey to me that they simply don't care. They are quick to deny claims without checking them in more detail. In my last call to them, they immediately responded by stating that I was too late to file. I replied that it was November and I had until December 31st. I was right, they were wrong. Bottom line - they will try anything to avoid payment.

Sorry to hear that. Can't imagine this is legal. I have submitted so much paperwork and they're still denying it. I guess Small Claims Court is the only other option.

Not sure how to advise the public, all of the disgruntle wageworks customers, but we all should forward our complaints to the ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE http://www.atg.wa.gov/FileAComplaint.aspx, with all of our complaints, only then can we stop WageWorks

We have had the same issues with WageWorks for multiple years in a row. We are now seeing a pattern that makes it clear that WageWorks systematically 'loses' forms & paperwork ie. HIIPA authorizations, reciepts, requests for payment, 'notes on the account' made during calls with customer service etc.

It is high time that a governement agency conducted an investigatory audit of WageWorks to see why these problems occur, and if they are (seemingly) intentional.

We will not stop until we get satisfactory information from a regulatory agency as to the constant foul-ups and hi-jinx that go on at WageWorks.

Remember...these are OUR dollars. This is NOT an insurance company. The money held by WageWorks is deducted from YOUR paycheck to be held FOR YOU so you can access it for healthcare, Rx meds, or childcare - depending on the types of accounts you take part in thru your employer. ALWAYS remind the WageWorks customer service team that the money is YOURS. YOU EARNED IT and it was deducted from YOUR PAYCHECK. IT IS NOT A BENEFIT OR A LOAN! Don't let them demean you, distract you, or put you thru an endless paper chase! FIGHT BACK!
