Payment inquiries
You can submit a Payment inquiry, which allows you to request additional information or report a problem with a particular payment. Fidelity customer service will contact the payee on your behalf in an attempt to resolve the problem.
Overview
If you're experiencing a problem with a processed payment, you should contact your payee. If you can't resolve the problem directly with the payee, you can submit a Payment inquiry.
What to do if you're charged a late fee for a payment
Check the payment information to make sure you scheduled the payment before the bill's due date. If you made the payment on time, contact the payee and ask to have the late fee or finance charge waived. If the payee did not credit your payment properly, any charges or fees may be waived once the problem is resolved. If the problem still cannot be resolved in this way, submit a Payment inquiry.
What to do if you have an issue or question with a payment
You can submit a Payment inquiry, which allows you to request additional information or report a problem with a particular payment. To submit a Payment inquiry, go to the Payment activity page, locate the payment in question, and select the Make an inquiry icon. You'll then be able to enter the information Fidelity needs to handle your request.
What to expect when you send a Payment inquiry
Fidelity will contact the payee on your behalf in an attempt to resolve the problem. Your inquiry may take up to 10 business days to resolve and Fidelity will reply to you in writing once the issue has been resolved.
