I worked for Brandon for two weeks as a W-2 employee. He flatly refused to file my wages with the IRS and DOR as promised, and insisted that I was to be paid under a 1099 as a subcontractor. However still no check 9 days later.

We traveled to work together,I worked under his supervision ( I had to drive... some story about his truck being in the shop.) and he specified starting and finishing times. Therefore nder state law this is a W-2 job. Now I have to file a mountain of paperwork, and no paycheck.

Brandon then had the nerve to tell me to ask for money from a client. (Rediculous because I worked on 3 client's job sites).

I tried that... The client said they he still owed them a bunch of work he had pre-billed them for and they were firing him!

Only been in business for less than a year according to the MA secretary of state's website.

Won't answer his phone for employees or clients. Unless I call from a phone number he never saw before on his caller ID.

Hoax !

AUTHOR: Brndnh721 - lawrence (USA)

This is a hoax! First off the first thing any employee would  fill out their paperwork before starting! Second I would need a signed W9 from any one I used as a sub contactor to work for me to even report that to the IRS if I dont have one then I cant report it to the IRS. I Have always had my truck and wouldn't be able to do any work with out it since everything is stocked in it! I dont collect any money from any clients because all my work is done for corprate chains and you dont get paid till 30 days after finishing any job , never mind pre billing for any thing. And of course I would have some guy I dont know go collect money for me?  And why would some one fire me on a job I pre billed? So they paid and they dont want me finishing the job? and ya I incorporated this year been in business since 07. The phone is always answered eithier by me or my answering service and if this actually happened the first thing I would do is go to the state and file a complaint and lets see almost December and I haven't heard anything? This is the problem with sites like these that people can come on here and bad mouth companies and the companies dont even know. I have ref's from dozens and dozens of General Managers and Area managers for chain companies . And I have a really good idea who posted this here

RIP OFF!

AUTHOR: Norm - Boston (USA)

Brandon's rebuttal is basically a half-incoherent word salad.  None of his points even make sense, given what happened.

So I don't know where to begin. But it's now been many weeks without pay, the court is now involved, and  he has an adversarial relationship with more than one of the clients who's job sites I worked on.

As for the rest, his rebuttal is false.



AVOID THIS SCAMMER.

Person posting fake complaints has been found!

AUTHOR: Brndnh721 - lawrence (USA)

We have located the person making these false statements and action is in progress !

Please let me know the job locations which we worked on together ? Since we service only select companies.

Hours we worked ? again since we work select times

Do I have kids? If so how many ? Wife ? no wife? any one working with some one for two weeks would know this.

Making false statements against some one or a company will get you sued . And yes with a court order we can get the info from Rip Off Report of who made the statements. AD!

Rip Off

AUTHOR: Norm - Boston (USA)

This is a ripoff report, not a debate.

Brandon seems pretty angry and agitated. And same as his last rebuttal, he makes no sense. 

I have no idea whether he's married or not, I have no interest in his personal life. I'm only interested in my money. I haven't even read the rest of his ranting. It's pointless.

I've heard him take the same tone with a customer, and it's very unprofessional.

So it's time to wrap this up. If this crook wants to have an angry temper tantrum and have the last word, it's not worth my time.  If he paid me my money he wouldnt have anything to get angry about.
