In an era where clicking a button can resolve almost any issue, paying for services online has become second nature. However, not all platforms are created equal, and when it comes to sensitive transactions like paying for your pest control services, you want to be sure you’re doing it right. Let’s dive into why paying your Lloyd Pest Control bills through Doxo is a mix-up you’ll want to avoid, and guide you towards the right way to pay Lloyd Pest Control online.

The Mix-Up: Why You Shouldn’t Pay Through Doxo

Doxo is a bill payment platform that consolidates various bills for convenience. However, Lloyd Pest Control is not affiliated with Doxo, which means paying through Doxo is not the safest route for your pest control bills.

Paying your Lloyd Pest Control bill through Doxo can be akin to sending a letter without a stamp; it might get where it needs to go, but there’s no guarantee, and the journey could be much longer and more complicated than necessary.

To ensure your payment is received promptly and securely, it’s crucial to use the Lloyd Pest Control payment portal. This direct approach minimizes risks and ensures your account is credited without delay. Paying directly not only secures your transaction but also provides peace of mind. It’s like locking your front door at night; it’s a simple step that offers significant security.

Tips for Avoiding Payment Scams

The digital world is rife with impostors. Here are some tips to help you spot these digital wolves in sheep’s clothing and protect your hard-earned money:

1. If you receive a bill from a company or vendor, try to use their recommended payment methods. If you receive a paper bill, there will typically be guidelines for how to pay the bill via mail or a web address to a bill payment portal that the company uses. Bills that are emailed typically contain a payment link.
2. Do not use search engines to search for the company’s name + “bill payment”, “pay bill” or similar keywords. Odds are you will be presented with several scam bill payment portals trying to trick you into paying them rather than the company directly.
3. Try and create an account with the company or vendor directly, if they have account management options. This way you can sign up for bill payment reminders and can always be sure you are paying the company directly.
4. If you’re still unsure about where or how to pay your bill, contact the company directly!

What to Do If You’ve Paid Your Lloyd Pest Bill Through Doxo

If you have accidentally paid your bill via Doxo or another unintended platform, there is still a chance that your payment is not lost forever.

We have actually received a number of Doxo payments (but not all of the ones that were reported to us by customers). The payments that did arrive have been received by us four to six weeks after the bills were due. In the absence of information from the customers (and from the third-party bill pay platforms), we have sent out notifications to our customers to state that payment has not been received. This has prompted the customer to make us aware of the error.

We get a lot of, “I paid online.” And “I Googled your online payment info and found your third-party bill pay service.” And “Why does Lloyd Pest Control allow Doxo to accept payments?”

The answer now is, of course: We don’t!

We started litigation. We forced them to remove our logo from their website. The laws, however, do not stop seedy companies from being opportunistic with search engine results. Predatory companies, like Doxo, provide their fraudulent bill pay services for every service company you can imagine – from your monthly gas and electric bill to your internet service to landscaping and trash collection.

If you have paid one of these companies, and you have received a notice from us that your payment is Past Due, please call us at 1-800-223-2847 or email us at [email protected] so that we are aware of being on the lookout. Some of these payments have arrived with no Lloyd Pest Control account info, leaving us guessing as to where the credit should be applied.

If you wish to pay us upon receipt of the Past Due notice, and your 3rd party payment still arrives subsequently, we will gladly apply both credits to your account.

Make sure that for all future online payments that you visit us directly at www.lloydpest.com, and select the Your Account link at the top of the home page. From there you will be directed to our secure online portal.
