Wed. mail - Still no check - Sigh......

Posted: Mar 28, 2012

Struck out here. Hopefully one of the others still waiting has better luck.

you will get it. Not a fan of this company, but they - always pay!

getting paid - sprinkle

This is not the first time this has happened to me with this company. But yes, you always get paid. My mail has not come yet today, but I guess I can presume there will not be a check there.

Well that answers the question I was about to ask - crud

Honestly I have never had this problem before..when I was first hired it was in the mailbox the Friday it was due..Wonder what is up..I just changed my direct deposit this time..they said it would be paper check, bad timing really need the money too.

Sounds like somebody messed up somewhere - because MModal does not have

a reputation for not paying their employees. Of all the things I have ever heard, not getting paid has never been one of them.

Sounds like somebody somewhere made some serious mistakes. You guys will get your checks, its unfortunate its taking so long, but you will get them.

I'm sure we'll get them.....eventually - Trampled underfoot

There was a definite foul up somewhere. Conveniently, the head of payroll is off this week so whatever "fix" they come up with will probably take longer than it should.

yea thought the head of payroll being out was - pretty convenient too

Its called oops I screwed up I feel sick and Im taking a week off...

Never paid. Those who did not receive money, checks were never printed - MTsickofit

Because of a "power outage." at the vendor.

Yeh. Right.

Crystal clear to my non MT friends who are out in the world. My friend said, oh, the old "paycheck in the mail gag, huh..."

I agree.

I hope he isn't working there. After a year of marriage I couldn't understand why my relatives kept saying I was rude for not sending thank yous. I did them, addressed them, stamped them and gave them to him to mail (we lived in the country and he had the only car).

WELL BECAUSE HE TOOK THEM TO WORK AND PUT THEM IN A SUPPLY CLOSET!

I only found out because his boss asked if I wanted them when he quit there without notice.

Me neither - lisamar

I did not get my check today either. I emailed payroll about it this afternoon. What the heck is this about?

If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't be emailing - I would be

[ In Reply To ..]
Calling everybody and their momma about my check. They would not get me off the phone until the it was straightened out.

I mean, put a stop payment, reissue it overnight so that I see it the next morning, and I wouldn't get off the phone until I got a tracking number or some form of reassurance and proof that it has been taking care of.

To heck with emailing, it's almost time for the next payday. You can best belief, they would all know me on first name basis. I would even email Vern!!
Its just that serious, I work for my money and I want it on time.

I'm glad I get direct deposit. I seriously advise you all to go out and get bank accounts, get your routing number, and have direct deposit set up immediately.

Well here's an update - lisamar

Got a reply saying they are checking with their vendor and will be back in touch later. What????

I did call first, but... - lisamar

[ In Reply To ..]
I called first, which was on Monday, and was told rather hurriedly to email them. They don't want any part of speaking with you on the phone apparently.

Well if it were my check, they wouldn't have - any other choice but

[ In Reply To ..]
to talk to me on the phone. I'm sorry, but somethings call for "personal/verbal" communications and my pay happens to fall under that category.

No way would they brush me off with an email, but thats just me.

direct deposit - caspar

[ In Reply To ..]
Don't really want companies having access to bank accounts...don't need another potential source of error in finances...

You can open a "seperate account" just for - pay check deposit only.

[ In Reply To ..]
either that or continue to wait on the mail and face the chance of going through this again.

The only thing a company has access to is your - routing number..sm

[ In Reply To ..]
they have no authority to do anything with your bank accounts. They send payment to your bank using the routing number provided and the bank deposits their payment into your account.

A company has no access to your bank account whatsoever. I dont get what you mean by potential errors in finance?

I've used direct deposit since at least 1995 - AnonToo

[ In Reply To ..]
And they only have the ability to DEPOSIT in your account; not withdraw. I think EVERYONE I know uses direct deposit for pay and never had a problem.

Now I HAVE heard nightmare stories about people on automatic bill pay where they have had the money taken out early or double debited.

Yes and even with that, it was because they - gave the "bill collector"

[ In Reply To ..]
permission to take money out of their account for a particular bill or on a particular day.

I dont mess with the auto bill pay thing. I dont give anyone any permission to take money from my account. I call my bills in with a pre-paid credit card.

But yes, direct deposit does NOT give people the ability to withdraw money from your account, only deposit.

No one can withdraw money from your account without you giving the bank permission to allow it to happen.

direct deposit nightmares - TT-MT

Not exactly true. Someone was withdrawing money from my account and I was not on automatic/direct bill pay. I didn't give ANYONE permission to take ANYTHING out of my account nor did I give ANYONE my routing number (which by the way can be obtained just by calling the bank) or my checking account number but yet this was going on and went on even after I filed a dispute with the bank. 45 days and 1000.00 dollars later, after filing disputes with bank and requesting my account be frozen this was stopped, and bank claimed they didn't know who it was, I was refunded my money and I closed my account. At this time I did have direct deposit and because my money was being deposited by my employer, there was money there to be taken. Had I not had my check directly deposited they could not have gotten that money. So sometimes its not always that we have a problem with our employer but with other issues that effects the money that is being deposited which makes us hesitant about direct deposit. Just something to think about for all out there who are so quick to ask and/or say "why don't you have direct deposit."

Did you say "checking account"? - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
Checkings accounts a lot of times can be vulnarable, but still not to direct deposit. What you are describing sounds like a classic case of identity theft. Like maybe you have a debit card/check card and someone got a hold to your card number and started ripping you off or maybe your check book.

I mean if that is your thought on bank accounts, then why have a bank account at all?

Any transactions made with my bank account require a *Pin number* and my password and the only person who knows that is me, if I ever lost that info even the bank could not give it back to me. I would have to go in, take proof of who I am, ID etc. and know my account number before I am able to reset my password and pin number.

With that being said, it is impossible for anyone to take any money out of my account without knowing that pin number or password.

Having someone steal money from you account, is in no way shape or form related to direct deposit and the routing number does not give people authority to take money out of your bank account either.

If thats the case, why would anyone have a bank account.

That's weird - AnonToo

[ In Reply To ..]
because the numbers for DEPOSITING a check (except for the BANK'S routing number) are different than your ACCOUNT number and your DEBIT CARD number. On any account I've had my routing number is the same, but the deposit slip is different from the checking and from the debit. I think you had identity theft and/or the bank screwed up and was covering its butt.

Again, not exactly true - TT-MT

[ In Reply To ..]
This is what the bank tells you because this is what they want you to believe. It was my checking account, no one else had my PIN, no one stole or got ahold of any checks because I don't write checks so I never even ordered any checks. What I was told that as long as you have a "debit card" that you use there is no way to set up an account to not have electronic deposits, transfers or withdrawals that will ensure that this doesn't happen. I have in the past had my identity stolen which is the main reason for me personally not setting up any automatic or direct bill pay, and I also use a prepaid credit card through ACE when ordering online or paying bills and I am very, very cautious about protecting any and all of my identifying information and I shred anything I receive with ANYTHING about me. Of note a debit card does not contain your account number or the bank's routing number on it, so even if it was the case of someone somehow getting ahold of my debit card it would not give them direct access to my account to be able to have that information and have money taken out of my account electronically. And, as I mentioned, it doesn't have anything to do with direct deposit except that because my checks were automatically deposited that money was there to be taken. It could have still happened without me having direct deposit, they would have just taken what I had, but I am hesitant about direct deposit because of this as I can't afford to wait on bank 30 to 45 days to settle this, as I had to in this case.
