FirstChoicePay: are payment channels also extinct?
 

I had a payment sent from a program a couple of days ago, wondering if it's going to arrive...

(Payment channels are basically like a managed wire service, where the program sends to an FCP account and FCP immediately wires the funds to a bank account)

Anyone know for sure?

Adult typically changes around out of nowhere, but companies exclusive to this industry tend to grow out of each pack. In case of worry about funds just use them until it runs out and replace how you get paid thereafter.

I don't load my card, but do have one activated. FCP didn't really collect my interest.

The payment processor wasn't bad at start, but danger exists regardless of what's offered.

Always ensure enough collateral is verified by network policy before claiming violation should nothing come.

If it was sent the same time FCP ceased operations, it will arrive for sure.
FCP finished and paid all processing or pending payments.

And they still have a time frame for all transactions like deposit and withdrawal before they really kill the switch.

Same situation here
it did not arrive.

NO it will not, and stop pretending like you know it. All funds sent on Monday are on their way back to sender! FCP confirmed this on Monday with me. If you do not know for sure, then keep your mouth shut.

hope you can get it resolved bro

I just hope, in time, everyone has a chance to withdraw the funds, they have in motion :helpme

Still no funds. I guess they're in motion.

Pretty dirty, since they sent the email saying the transfer had been initiated to my bank account. There's been no subsequent notification that the transfer was voided.

Following this up, FCP told the sponsors they'd be returning channel payments, but didn't bother to inform the customers!

They told me funds were on the way to my bank account...and I haven't heard anything of it since. :mad:

Further info. Program now says that Payoneer is willing to take over sending channel payments (including the funds FCP lied about sending 2 weeks ago)... but only for a few months.

FYI, I received the first channel payment via Payoneer today.

The previous funds which FCP claimed were sent are still in motion.

We had to hear from the sponsors what was going on with Firstchoicepay. Payoneer/FCP didn't even bother to inform us. On top of that it looks like FCP/Payoneer did bother to move their payoneer customers out of Choice Bank but did nothing about their FCP accounts:

I've just gotten a bunch of payouts we had sent out when the freeze was happening get returned to our account. So if you're paying affiliates via FCP, take a look at your account and you probably will see some returned payments.

I'm an affiliate myself. The sponsor did ask me a couple of days ago whether I'd received payment. Seems like they're looking after it for me. No thanks to FCP!

I had 1K bounced by Firstchoicepay at the time they ceased - in my FCP statement it said oddly enough: "Rejected by Payoneer", not FCP. Well, Payoneer fully owns Firstchoicepay.
So I contacted the sponsor about this and it took them time but in the end I recovered the 1K that was in a limbo.
All the rest is still stuck with Payoneer/Firstchoicepay and their unhelpful support now invents a different story each time I contact them about this...

Hi, despite the intensity and constraints of my position, I will do my best to help.
Feel free to contact me anytime.

wonder what is available as alternative
