ACH Payment Block

A returned ACH payment happened in June and now when processing the ACH payment for the July bill shown "EFT Processor Decline. Customer not authorized bank to accept these transactions". However, after confirming with the bank, on the bank's end, they confirmed there are not block or holds placed on xfinity. So the current issue is that the xfinity portal cannot process the payment and indicate "issues" is with bank, but the bank confirmed back showing there are no issues on their end blocking the ACH transaction. What could exactly happen here?

@user_hsxch8 Thank you for doing everything you can to make sure you stay on top of your bill. I also appreciate you making us aware of this error you're getting when trying to make a payment via Forums. Have you by any chance tried using a different bank account and/or debit/credit card to process the payment?

Unfortunately, this is the only business bank account that is link to the xfinity and Comcast Business. Other payment options, such as credit card and mailing checks, were considered but not viable for the long term.

On the online portal. Not sure about the app though, as we always made ACH payment online.

@user_hsxch8 Have you tried clearing out your cache and cookies, closing out your browser, then opening up a new page before trying again? How about using a different browser, have you tried that?

Haven't tried clearing out cache and using a different browser. Been using Chrome, do you suggest try using Explorer? But definitely have tried closing the website and reopening it. Will these troubleshooting help with the issue?

user_jhawn3 Thanks for reaching out! The error you are getting may indicate that the payment processor is unable to verify the card information being submitted. You may want to try clearing your cache, and cookies or use a private browswer, or Incognito window.

I'm dealing with this same issue and it mostly arises on the Xfinity Portal when trying to authorize via Plaid. When I spoke with Xfinity they told me to reach out to my bank. I called my bank and they said there's nothing that would prevent the connection so now the ball is in Xfinity's court. My bank also advised that Xfinity could also bypass the use of Plaid and just accept banking information.

Thank you for reaching out. Sorry you are running into issues. Are you just unable to update your banking or do you have a block on your account @user_jpaa21

@XfinityDena​ Now when I'm in the Xfinity portal, my banking/payment options are filled in. I don't know if there's a block on my account or not. Is there any way for you to check?
