BEWARE. If you process keyed-in or CNP (card not present) transactions, such as phone or internet orders, do NOT use Crescent Processing Company. After telling the sales representative that almost half my credit business is done over the phone, and then being assured that this is not a problem, after the first week Crescent Processing decided to call this suspicious activity and is now holding over $6000.00 (six thousand dollars) of my money for 180 days. At which time I am required to call them back and ask for it. By the way, there will be no interest paid on the money they hold. So if your company has a load of extra cash laying around that you won t be needing for the next six months, then by all means, use Crescent Processing Company. Otherwise I would recommend you find someone else. I have been in business for over 40 years now and have never had the misfortune of dealing with a company that was so misleading. I switched back to First Data Card Services where I should have stayed in the first place. Their rates are a bit higher, but at least I get my money!
