How Declined or Insufficient Funds EFT/ACH payments are handled in CenPoint.
When an ACH/EFT payment is declined there will be an alert on the desktop site, notifying you the payment has failed.
The Alert for a failed payment goes to the following:
a. The person who entered the payment on the payment screen, if applicable.
b. The person who created the invoice and or link
c. The A/R Rep for the Customer if there is one selected.
* A declined EFT/ACH payment may take 3-4 days to come through.
A declined payment can be viewed from the Payment History screen on the desktop and portal.
