I called 12/4/2023 to update my email and address the Representative told me they'll be no issues with me accessing my account with the update come to find out it was blocked for seven days I couldn't transfer my money so after that I go back into my account and see I have to add a account info for direct deposit so I call customer services and ask if it will be a hold with updating any more she said no and it's now a 2 day hold just to update my banking information so a total of 10 days for one direct deposit they hire anybody at that place I'm glad it's almost over switch your health savings account from them they run it like a overseas sweat shop
Merck uses this company and the customer service wait times at Alight are terrible. TERRIBLE. Called and their automated system did not work well at all. They give you the option to press 1 to have them call you back when your time in queue comes around but the automated system did not accept it. I had hoped their service would improve with the recent name change but that clearly has not been the case.
My former employer, Raytheon, has chosen this incompetent company to handle their benefits center. This month, March 2022, I was charged more from my pension for my health insurance. After making 3 calls, someone finally was able to tell me what happened. Without telling me, they deducted payments for vision insurance for my spouse. The problem is I don't have a spouse. How can this company make these changes without my knowledge? Who is this benefits center benefiting? I have made seven calls to them in the last two weeks concerning this issue. I just got off the phone with them and I am not confident that this will be resolved.
The worst employees. Lies and more lies from each new person you get from customer service department when you are trying to get your health insurance information. They take forever to process anything as well. The employees do not even care to resolve any issues and would just hang up that phone. A week trying to get them to enroll me in the health plan i chose. Employers DO NOT use this company. Low class employees.
Had to deal with alight rather than my company for my baby's health insurance which was dropped 2 weeks after he was born. The waiting and endless calls and reps took a huge mental and physical toll on me during my early postpartum months. After 6 weeks I eventually got the coverage restored, but it was one of the biggest hassles I've ever had to deal with.
I have tried 3 different times in the last 3 weeks to get a customer rep since i was unable to set a phone PIN or log in on line to access my frozen pension account. The first 2 times no one returned my call (as promised). The third time i sat on hold for 2 hours and no one ever did pick up. They did thank me for my patience every 10 seconds! Hopefully by the time i retire (11 months) they will answer the phone.
Alight has taken over $1,100 more than the legal limit out of my paycheck and refuses to talk to me about it. Now I have to get a lawyer to sue both Alight and John Deere. They know nothing about any CARES Act law requirements and try to deny you benefits that the law clearly states you're entitled to. My missing $1,100 has mysteriously come out of my bank account, but they don't know what I'm talking about and told me that my money is just going into hyperspace when it gets there. If this was a customer service oriented company, they'd be bankrupt by now. I intend to also turn them into the IRS for tax fraud given that they've taken more than the legal limit out of my paycheck.
Allstate uses this company for benefits management and I personally submit my FSA receipts for reimbursement. Their communication through email is terrible and confusing. Their instructions don't match what their website shows, which forces you to call in for clarification. Their support staff is not helpful and can only redirect you to emails and instructions that I've already read. They proceeded to tell me that there are required fields for receipt submission (6) and if the reviewer find one field missing/insufficient then they will stop and hold the claim. Does this really seem like it's efficient and helpful? Then they go on to tell me that some fields can go into the comments section (where is this documented?). This company doesn't seem to care about the horrible experience that they provide.
Alight is by far the worst company I have ever dealt with throughout my career. There is no communication, coordination, and /or business sense. We have been trying for over a year to settle some medical claims. There was obviously an error at their end, and we have been told numerous times the monies will be transferred, and nothing ever happens. We have been told a manager will call us numerous times and nobody calls back. I can't believe Merck, a major pharmaceutical company, uses this company. We have tried to call Merck and they give us other numbers that end up back at Alight and begin the same process again.
My employer recently switched to Alight for management of our HSA accounts and health insurance. I've called multiple times and customer service doesn't know anything about their websites, is not able to answer extremely basic questions, and not able to assist with signing up for benefits or changing benefits, etc. Extremely clueless and not able to help whatsoever. Everything they do requires opening up a ticket.
Answer: It's a legimate scam company. It has offices and many employees, but fails on adminsitering benefits, wrongdfully denies claims,. And has no effective customer service. Whatever little they are paid by the company that hires them is a ripoff.
Answer: They are often imposible to reach in a sense because the computer system has limited topics, none related to Alight screw-ups, and if you pick the least immaterial choice, the rep you reaches is not emplowred to solve problems, only to report them to the indifferent Alight higher-ups in the U.S.
Answer: They weer picked by the company from which I retired - has to be bacasue they work cheap - but are not worth what they charge. Who hires a BBB D- rated company?
