Becker & Associates work at home rip-off, liars Carmichael California
After completing what appeared to be legitimate training for real work I signed on with Becker & Associates. I was assigned to Lori French who lives in Ohio. Lori told me that she was my manager and she would train and assist me. She told me that if I wanted to I could be working in just a few days and Lori did contact me regarding work.
Lori sent me a contract from Equasystems in Texas. I was to perform computer/telephone marketing for this company. I had a contract stating that I would be paid $12.00 an hour for all work completed and emailed to Lori. Lori told me to plan on spending $1.00 an hour for long distance telephone calls. Once I began to do the work I was then told that the time I spent on the phone with Lori, which was sometimes hours, was not paid time. Additionally I was paying the long distanced charges to call Lori to get answers, training, support and to troubleshoot program problems. After performing about 11 hours of work I was offerred something else much more lucrative and I did not have to spend hours on the phone for unpaid work.
I called and told Lori and she basically said it was okay and they would send my check. After not receiving the money I was owed and receiving a long distance telephone bill of more than $125.00 I started writing and emailing Becker & Associates, Lori French and Wes from Equasystems.
Finally Lori called and said I was not going to get paid as I had to complete the contract in full to be paid. As an independent contractor I should be paid for the hours I worked and as a contractor I can stop working anytime I want. Of course the BBB's don't want anything to do with this. Becker & Associates looks legitimate but they did nothing for me when Wes at Equasystems would not pay me.
Lori French lied about me getting paid and now avoids me. If anyone is thinking about working for this ocmpany make sure you understand that you have to complete the ENTIRE contract to get paid and check out how much your phone bill will be BEFORE you start.
