    Hello!
    
    Similarly, my team and I have tried to make the payment and they reject it, one of their executives advised me, and I also contacted our bank issuer, who told me that the error came from the Zendesk platform.
    
    Can you support me please?

    Hi Amin, 

    We are unable to assist with billing issues in the Help Center, as it would require you sharing account-specific information in a publicly visible forum. 

    For assistance with any and all billing issues, please Contact Zendesk Support.

    Unfortunately contacting zendesk support is not taken seriously and any issues you have regarding invoicing and billing is only allocated to your account manager who ignores you if you have any complaints regarding service received.

    Hi Bernadine,

    I'm sorry you're having a frustrating experience – I can assure you that your open ticket with our support team and your billing-related ticket are being worked on by our teams. I'll keep an eye on them and make sure you get a response on both tickets.

    We notice that our payment has been declined due to some restriction to our card payment.

    Hence, we would like to initiate the payment through ACH, could you please share the Bank details to initiate the payment

    I need an option for Net Banking so I can pay the annual fee manually as my previous card has expired and there are some issues about issuing a new card with that particular bank.

    Hi i 

    I would like to know more, if I proceed with adding a credit card then will the system process payment to my entire Invoice?

    (i mean new invoice and old invoice)

    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Jeddirok, 

    Once you update your card, the system will only charge you for what is due. More information about billing can be found here: Billing FAQ and resources

    Hey John,
     
    Once you update your payment information the credit card will automatically be charged for the full invoice. This can typically take up to a day or two for the payment to go through.
     
    Hope this clears up any confusion!

    Ironically, Zendesk customer support is absolutely horrible. How do I not click through thousands of articles attempting to find what I'm searching for?

    Our multibrand Zendesk account was just suddenly closed due to a billing issue from a YEAR AGO. We were unaware that there had been an issue all this time, we just woke up one day to find that our entire account had been closed down without a warning. 

     

    We've been trying to reach out to get Zendesk to get the invoice reissued so we can just pay it, but the most we've gotten was a chat agent telling us their colleague is working on it, then they closed the chat and merged the ticket.

     

    This was yesterday. Our entire support system for multiple brands has been down for over 24 hours, because it seems Zendesk does not take us seriously. 

     

    We've been customers for over 5 years and this is the treatment we get?

    Thanks, Brett. Zendesk had been great to work with in the early years, we really felt valued as clients, but things seem to have taken a nosedive recently (and not just with this one incident).

     

    And today we learned from our bank that the issue Zendesk is closing our account for was already solved. The payment did go through. So Zendesk has just caused us a lot of damage to our business and cost us what is now three days of service because someone spotted an anomaly a year after it happened and did not bother to check documentation properly, or to even check with us.

     

    Whenever we request changes to our account, whether it be billing or otherwise, Zendesk is so agonizingly slow to respond (took us a month to get our billing changed, because the first time we reached out we were just ignored and the ticket was closed). But for cases like this we get a lightning fast knee-jerk reaction. It's not a good look for a company and brand who is supposed to be all about customer service.

    Hi, can someone assist me as a matter or priority.

    February 2023 my card expired, so as before went to update the details. no joy as the page just hung ( safari ). tried other browsers, Chrome and Edge, same results.

    early March Zendesk extended my licence without resolving the issue, which was helpful.

    further conversations took place and eventually I was asked to send the HAR files from Google. this was then confirmed there was an issue with the Zendesk payment systems.

    I have been in constant contact with support, offering to pay over the phone knowing that one day they will probably deny access. well yesterday was that day and at present we do not have access to the platform. there are still no actual failure messages in the safari or chrome browsers, but I noticed yesterday there is now a message in Edge.

    well clearly your account won't remain active. this could not happen at a worse time so close to end of month billing with our clients.

    I have asked that our service is switched back on while they resolve this, but it is falling on deaf ears. my last update from Support;

    at present we still do not have access to support or any method of escalating this. 

    if someone picks this up I need access to the systems ASAP.

    We have been disconnected from Zendesk  because of one unprocessed payment of $1.20.

    We do not know why the payment didn't process. The card is not expired, neither is there any holds or blocks on it. Credit card company says problem is with Zendesk. But Zendesk does not seem to care as emails go unanswered and I cannot find a number to actually talk to anyone that can help me.  If anyone can direct us as to how we can get this resolved we would be very grateful.

    Hi Bret,

    I don't have any payment information to update. Nothing has changed on my payment information. Have you been able to process the payment?

    Hey Leon,

    Unfortunately I'm unable to tell on my end. I see you replied back in the ticket you have open with our Finance team so they will follow up with more information. I know that we process payments overnight so if you did update any information we should know for sure by tomorrow.
     
    I hope this helps!
