Callers concerned about StormPay.com
By HEATHER DONAHOE
The Leaf-Chronicle

Numerous customers of local online money transfer service, StormPay.com, expressed concerns to The Leaf-Chronicle about being unable to process transactions through the company’s Web site during the last four days.

The company’s Web site could not be accessed and returned an error message Saturday night. Three calls to StormPay.com CEO Steve Girsky were not returned Saturday night.

Customers contacted The Leaf-Chronicle because of a story available on the Internet announcing the StormPay.com’s sponsorship at Clarksville Speedway.

The business, which is at 1690 Golf Club Lane, appears to be undergoing a massive renovation project. The building, where lights were on Saturday night, remained set up with various office machines and equipment. No one responded to knocks on the business’ door.

An employee with the construction company performing the renovations said Saturday night he spoke with a StormPay.com employee Friday but could not offer any information about the company’s status.

An employee with the construction company performing the renovations said Saturday night he spoke with a StormPay.com employee Friday but could not offer any information about the company's status.

StormPay.com, which was launched in 2002 and does business in 200 countries, serves as a payment intermediary for online auction sites and other Internet businesses, allowing customers and businesses to send and receive money.

Clarksville Police Sgt. David Jones said an officer was requested to perform a welfare check Friday night by a caller who complained he was unable to complete a transaction at StormPay.com.

The Friday check turned up no employees at the building, where all the doors were locked, Jones said.

"So far we haven't had any reports filed that I'm aware of," Jones said Saturday night.
