XLN Telecom - SP Marketing XLN Telecom 'Academy' Scam Vauxhall London United Kingdom

Hi,
I was going through the blog site http://www.ripoffreport.com/Sales-People/Xln-Telecom/xln-telecom-fraud-using-scentu-62m36.htm

as i have been an Ex Employee of XLN Telecom in india under Xploretech and i was made a scape goat by the management from XLN and currently your supervisors in india .
I would like to bring under your kind attention that the CSR in india arent treated well though they work independantly now without any ties from any BPO.
People who are unwell get a deduction from their salary for the entire day however in UK which i know that if an employee is physically unwell they are paid till they return to work and without any deduction and in india according to the labour law you cannot deduct a salary of an employee who is unwell if they have leave balance and they are entitled for Provident fund and gratuity and other entitlement like medical allowance...

However the company according to Christian is running on profit however in INDIA they do all possible things to stop an increament in their employee salary talking about recession and on the other hand they confess that XLN is Growing ...
A company which is not loyal to their employee who have been working in INDIA for peanuts how can they show any mercy for their fellow countrymen in UK.

We must all bring a complaint to OFFCOM in UK regarding this SCAM togeather and get the management straightened because even if you work for a single day they should pay you .

These jerks should be thought a lesson before its too late playing with others.

I will find an email address to report regarding this so please all of the member who has been cheated by XLN i would request to join hands in teaching them a lesson....

It has been brought to my attention that some people may have been unfairly treated by some of our field sales franchisees.

If this is true then this is completely unacceptable to me and to XLN.

I want to make it clear that inappropriate people management has never been tolerated within XLN and never will be tolerated. I also want you to know that we have reviewed our field sales operation and have completely restructured it, so that we are now only using experienced people orientated trainers and managers, recruiting

We appreciate very much the feedback we have received from people who feel they have not been properly treated by the old training process.

As a responsible company we treasure our staffs that are the backbone of our organisation. We would never do anything to disadvantage them.

I would like to make it clear that my door is always open to anyone who has any concerns about XLN and if anyone has any specific complaints about how they have been treated then please feel free to contact me in writing at XLN Telecom Ltd, The Brewery Building, 69, Bondway, London SW8 1SQ or by email christian.ceo@xlntelecom.co.uk

I especially want to hear if someone feels they have not been properly paid for the work they have carried out. If this is the case then I will personally make sure this situation is rectified.

XLN is a very successful company which has grown hugely over recent years because of the efforts of its staff who are properly and promptly rewarded.

XLN has an excellent reputation in the telecoms business, a reputation which has been hard earned and a reputation that XLN is determined to keep.

Very truly yours,

Christian Nellemann

Founder and Group CEO

I was the unfortunate victim of XLN's academy training' too. Are they allowed to do this by law? - They'd make you go out and get contracts - at least 2 a day (although the minimum requirement goes up to 3 in your third week of the academy training') and if you fail to do this you are fired instantly on the spot! XLN's director Christian has a right hand man named Steven Punn who runs the academy which is based in Vauxhall, London. He makes you feel like you are worthless and does not even acknowledge or look at you if you fail to get his contracts.

None of us were paid for the training or the contracts; in fact they only pay you 100 pounds in your third week to cover the cost of travel and food - this works out as 10 pounds per day for travel and 10 for food! This amount never goes up in terms of pay and you are promised to become a concessions after 8 weeks of training. The reality is that, as with all pyramid scams, you are left having to go out on the field for this sales operation even after your full 8 weeks of training and even then do not get any pay till you build your team' and trust me, building your team is impossible. I mean, would you really stick around for 8 weeks only to have the people above you benefit from all the money and you getting stuck on 100 pounds per week if your lucky?!

Steven Punn may claim to have made his millions through this scam but the truth is it's easy to make millions when you're sat at the top of the pyramid and lack any morals or values when it comes to being a hard, cold-hearted sales mob! I'm glad I left this so called job, many of the people I met in my situation have all left, and now have greater successful jobs, with paid training (what a shocker!)

I thought I'd mention here also - Steven Punn insists that in this economic climate (the recession) we are very unlikely to get a job or even make as much money as XLN supposedly promises, which is ironic seeing that he CLAIMS we are self employed when working for XLN. If that is the case, then how come NONE of us were given ANY of the commissions earned for each of our contracts? I alone got XLN around 15 contracts and only got paid 100 pounds each week (for the 4 weeks I was there) and this, as I've mentioned above, was for food and travel only!!

Everything they tell you is a lie! You NEVER make it to the concessions let alone franchisee stage and the person named Amanda who has put up a post stating she is a concessions could just be a mole I say this because when I was in my 2nd week of the academy, also known as the firewalker week, Steven Punn himself printed out one of the reports and handed out copies to us asking us what we thought of the negative things others were writing. Clearly is he was telling us the truth about becoming concessions then he wouldn't have bothered printing or asking our opinion.

He wanted us to suck up to him and make him feel better, when someone pointed out something about a pyramid scam he said, what is that, I've never heard of it! How ironic! I hope he sleeps well at night knowing he has manipulated people into believing all the rubbish and the lies he told us about himself, as well as the academy and how he's the only person in the world we should feel sorry for because he's had it soo hard, oh, boo h*o!!

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

THIS SHOULD EXPLAIN TO YOU

Your Relationship with XLN

* XLN does not employ Field Based Sales Agents directly, or indirectly
*
We work with a number of independent marketing companies that engage sales agents.
*
These agents are typically self-employed agents working full or part time selling XLN Telecom products either exclusively or as well as products from different companies
*
Agents are paid commission for the contracts or customers that they supply to the marketing company they work with.
*
Some of these independent marketing companies are part of a franchised network of companies that work closely with XLN Telecom.
*
The purpose is to expand this channel through the development of new independently owned and operated franchisees.
*
To ensure that the individuals that decide to become franchisees have the highest possible chance for success, the Academy has been created.

BASICALLY YOU DON'T WORK FOR XLN YOU ARE SELF EMPLOYED WORKING ON COMMISSION. THIS IS A PYRAMID SCHEME WHERE BY YOU SELL PRODUCTS ON BEHALF OF XLN AND RECRUIT MORE AND MORE PEOPLE TO TRAIN AND SELL THE PRODUCT.

XLN IS A GENUINE COMPANY SELLING BROADBAND AIMED AT SMALL AND MEDIUM BUSINESSES.

STEVEN PUNN WAS SIGNED TO EMI RECORDS IN 2001 AFTER TAKING ACTING AND SINGING CLASSES WAS DROPPED FROM THE LABEL (http://www.angelfire.com/pop2/stevenpun/abouthim.html).HE IS MERELY AN ACTOR, THE MERCEDES HE DRIVES IS A RENTAL, HE DOES NOT OWN 6 HOUSES.

SP MARKETING STANDS FOR STEVEN PUNN MARKETING (HE IS THE FRANCHISE) AND ONLY A MARKETING SCHEME AIMED AT AND FOR THE PURPOSE OF EMPLOYING FIELD WORKERS WORKING ON BEHALF AND SELLING XLN PRODUCTS ON A PERFORMANCE BASED I.E COMMISSION ONLY STRUCTURE, THEY RECRUIT SO CALLED "MANAGERS" EVERY WEEK.

THEY DON'T REALLY LIE ITS IN THE SMALL PRINT I RECOMMEND YOU DO READ IT (http://www.xlnacademy.co.uk/home/Relationship.aspx) AND IN THE WORD PLAY I JUST WISH THEY STOPPED WASTING PEOPLES TIME AND BE STRAIGHT FORWARD FROM THE BEGINNING THIS IS A PYRAMID SCHEME FULL STOP.

XLN is a prestigious award winning company, and amongst the fastest growing telecommunication providers in the industry.
50% of all current employees started their career within the XLN ACADEMY.
Our Academy is made up of A Players and it's the foundation upon which the leading telecom service provider was built. There are no shortcuts; each employee must go through the same rigorous training programme.

It's indeed a life time opportunity learning from as well as working with highly motivated and ambitious people.
