AmCheck has been processing our payroll needs for a year now, and they are very responsive to our needs. We find the service to be complete and accurate, and since we are a small company it really helps to have one less thing to worry about! We have our own "go to" person for any questions or needs, and our person, My rep. responds immediately to any questions and keeps us up to date. Using the service is easy and no hassles! Thank You! - Linda S |
