David Morillo of Alkyha Defense Logistics basically BEGGED our company to do snow removal for them this past March at The Teleport, a Port Authority of NY and NJ facility on Staten Island NY.

His premise for requiring a new contractor late in the season was that his last subcontractor "had an altercation with the senior management of the site" and had "gotten himself thrown off the job." This was literally less than a day before a forecast significant snow event.

Being a locally based, well established, customer oriented business, we agreed, on short notice, on rates to provide specific services on short notice. We also agreed that Mr Morillo would tell us what time to START WORK, and also what time to STOP WORK on the site. We would bill at an agreed upon rate per hour worked. 

We sent our bill for services on March 9 2015 for services provided March 1st through 6th. We recieved a partial payment about a month later with a letter stating we left too early, we left lot incomplete. WE left when David told us to...

When pressured for details, we were put off and given stories about Port Authority guys being on vacation, blah, blah, blah. 

What i find amazing is we specifically asked for confirmation that ADL will PAY US regardless of their getting paid, and I have an email where David confirms this fact. 

Also, in one of my texts to David himself, i stated "Dont make me look like an a*s for telling the owner it was cool to extend credit to your firm" To which David himself responded "lol never man I'm a legit guy so would never embarrass myself like that" Nothing could be farther from the truth. All of my text and email communication with David Morillo has been backed up for future reference and legal recourse. We will be contacting contract administration at The Port Authority of NY and NJ for further pursuit of monies owed to us.

Additionally, our office manager called him to inquire about his promise to pay regardless of his payment status. He felt it necessary to curse at her, berate her, make personal comments about our company, and act like a spoiled entitled brat.

The dog and pony show that is Alkyha Defense Logistics is a joke. They will lie to get you to work. They will lie about payments. This is the most umprofessional organization I have ever dealt with in 20 plus years in the snow removal business. ALL contractors are encouraged to do their own thorough research prior to entering into ANY AGREEMENT with Alkyha.

LIARS, AND NOW THEY WILL NEED TO PROVE IT

AUTHOR: E. SMITH - (USA)

POSTED: Tuesday, August 18, 2015

To begin with, I can only say its crazy that I company clearly in the wrong would be so quick to post adverse information online not realizing that "THE TRUTH" will come back to bite them in the you know what?

 

So here we go,.

 

We hired this firm out of necessaty given the fact we were awarded a contract late in the season, and the previous vendor as well as our client did not seem to be a good fit for each other (we liked the previous vendor and had a good working relationship with im however our client felt otherwise so we were forced to replace them) as such we went with Margarella Industrial Construction AKA 980-PLow Corp AKA Alex Albrecht AKA TANIA VELOSO. 

We explained to them that we were happy to pay them so long as the client was happy and we received no complaints, we also told them the client (not us) was highly demanding and would be sure to inspect there work as well as monitor there activities. As such they had to show up when they said they would, and do the things they promised or else the client would call us out on it, and we would have problems.

They reassured us that this was in fact the case, well fast forward to March 6, and we start to have not 1 not 2 but MULTIPLE service failures, and countless complaints.

We convey that to this contractor and they assured us they would handle it, well after several hrs of back and forth they tell us the work is "completed" and that they are now requesting permission to leave? We (being the trusting ones) believed that they in fact did the work and allowe them to leave (HUGE MISTAKE!!!!)

 

It turns out later that morning a VIP from the Port Authority of NY/NJ pulls into the area and completely looses it!!!!!! I mean the guy started cursing up a storm! (I got the emails directly from the client that shows we are not lying or exagerating) the emails and phone calls start to come in, so much so that a previous vendor we worked with called us and told us to forget what Margarella Construciton is telling us, the site "looks like ****" there words not ours. We proceed to ask that independend contractor to put that in writing (he does) and then we contact our client. We tell our client we will of course do what is necessary to correct this problem immediately, and our client tells us we are putting employees at risk of injury and that the safety conditions must be addressed asap (this is a site whereby local police are stationed as well as emergency vehicles and VIP's for the Port Authority Bridges and Tunnels so god foribd there should be an emergency on a bridge or tunnel and some of these emergency service workerks would need to run to in a hurry? we would literally be given the death penalty for putting them in harms way)

 

We call ALEX and he tells us everything was fine when he left and he will send his guy back, he sends his guy back but then his guy has to leave because now his equipment broke (this is hardly the first time) so our client is now going crazy and essentially blowing up our phones

 

After all is said and done and to make a long story short, our client says they WILL NOT PAY FOR THE RETURN SERVICE GIVEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE RIGHT FROM THE FIRST TIME (we agreed) and he will also impose a fine upon us for creating hazardous conditions.

We knowing that Margarella left us with NO ARGUMENT have to accept such and proceed to pay Margarella Construction for there time and WE DO NOT DEBIT THEM THE AMOUNT WE WERE DEBITED, we simply debit them the amount we were fined and pay them the rest (so essentially we lost to the client and by paying Margarella the amont fined we lost that as well, which amounts to paying for there mistake twice) and to make matters more clear to Margarella we submit a payment to them for the full balance (minus the fine) as well as the long letter from the client about the issues they had and how much money they debited us for.

They then seem to go quite for a few months and we then get a call from Tania Veloso who proceeds to ask us for the rest of there so called "money" we tell her that we are suprised to get that call given that we sent them copies of all the documentation the client sent us as well as the fees the client debited us for and the concerns the client had, we also make it clear that given such and in the interest of being professional we STILL PAID THEM MORE THAN THEY WERE DUE and they are able to verify such through the correspondence which we included in there payment.

She immediately turns into the NASTIEST, MOST BELIGIRENT, person we have ever enountered (little did she know we had the entire conversation on tape) and curses and swears and calls us thieves and scam artists. In the end she hangs up without so much as letting us talk to her calmly! 

 

So to conclude we now find this story about how they were ripped off online, (hardly any truth to it whatsoever) and to prove our point, we are happy to provide, letters, copies of checks showing that we overpaid them, invoices from them ovewrbilling us, emails and taped conversations. 

Because unlike them we dont need to complain about things publicly we simply need to make sure everything is well documented.

 

So with that said, if they can prove that they did the work in a satisfactory manor I WILL SAY HERE ON THIS WEBSITE WE WILL DOUBLE WHAT THEY ARE OWED! BUT IF THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE THEN I WOULD ASK THEM TO REIMBURSE OUR FIRM 100% OF WHAT WE PAID THEM!

 

Lets see now if they are willing to put up or shut up?......
