I worked for this company for over 2 months without seeing a dime.  I sold a very big deal and they owed me $3,800!! I was told pay periods are the 2nd and 17th. I should have been paid on the 17th of the previous month. Never came.  I was told that some documents were missing (when they weren't)....then, on the 2nd, I was told that the wire never came through.


I have proof that the company was switched over and the deal went through just fine! After questioning it, and threatening to contact the FBI and local newspapers, I was told that the owner NICK ALBERINO's account was frozen and could not receive any funds.  When speaking with him on the phone, he stated he would pay me himself if he had to, by 4 p.m. 4 p.m. came and went, with NO pay! When I emailed to see the status, I was given an email response stating that the company was forced to file bankruptcy "today."  How convenient, it was the day I was to be paid!!


In researching, I have spoken with 5 other recent employees who were not paid either for their commissions.  THIS COMPANY IS FRAUD! DO NOT WORK FOR THEM AND DO NOTTTT GIVE THEM YOUR BUSINESS!! VERY Unethical!!! 


LOOK OUT FOR LYNN ALBERINO (listed as owner and she is Nick's wife), NICK ALBERINO (also goes by other alias's on the phone, such as Fred Gordon) and LOU FACCHINI.  


All 3 of these people are affiliated with American Power & Light.  Do NOT work for them and do NOT do business with them!  BEWARE! BEWARE! BEWARE! 


Also, these individuals run other phone sales businesses as well, one of which is called Alarm Marketing Group.  They sell ADT security system installs in other states.  They are not paying those employees either.  THIS COMPANY IS FRAUD!!!


They have offices in East Boca, West Boca and Deerfield.

#7 UPDATE EX-employee responds

I worked for Nick and he is a stand up guy!

AUTHOR: David Gliottone - ()

POSTED: Friday, June 21, 2013

I worked for Nick for a few months and he was one of the best people I have ever worked for. He never lied to me and always played me on time. I even saw on several occasions where some of his employees had a discrepancy about their weekly paycheck and Nick being a fair guy paid them what they wanted losing money in the process trying to keep everyone happy. When people are on a commission only pay structure and don’t sell anything for the week, then they shouldn’t have made anything for the week. I have witnessed Nick going above and beyond to compensate his employees at his own expense!

Nick is an honest employer and I find it hard to believe that he legitimately ripped off anyone that has worked for him.

Ripped off

AUTHOR: tomjames - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, September 13, 2010

I know its all lies.. they lie soooooo much.. they did the same thing for a company i worked for. They had an ad out looking for people to call on behalf of their other company (www.2gig.com) and also (Alarm Marketing Group 5301 N Federal Highway, Suite 260, Boca Raton FL)... we called thousands of leads did surveys asked questions to the people, and were told we will be paid 1.50 per completed survey.. he said the same thing pmt will be 2nd and 17th for work done the previous month. My boss spoke to his daughter she said he was going to pay he was waiting on a check to come in, apparently that check never came in.. and we never got paid. he stopped answering his phone.. his daughter stopped answering her phone.. they are crooks.. his wife is in it as well.. its sad that a woman would really go along with something like that... then we had a collection agency call him, and then he said the leads were "fraudulent"... HE PROVIDED THE LEADS TO US SO WE CAN CALL.. and just to back up our truthfullness we recorded every single survey, just incase something like that would actually happened, and it did.. funny thing is, my boss has had email and telephone conversation with nick, nick signed work orders and everything, but to him its not enforceable... we're all actually getting a lawyer together to go after him shortly. this guy is def a snake as mentioned before.. DO NOT WORK WITH/FOR HIM..

ONCE AGAIN, HERE IS THE TRUTH...

AUTHOR: TIRED OF NOT BEING PAID - (United States of America)

POSTED: Sunday, August 29, 2010

This is in response to the comment that the "obligation" was met.  I, as the employee, spoke DIRECTLY with Nick Alberino, he IS in fact with American Power & Light, as well as the other companies. and he DID in fact state he would pay me directly. I DID in fact report directly TO HIM on many, many occassions. Again, LIES, LIES, LIES. I stand by the fact that I was NEVER paid, nor was anyone else in the office! DO NOT WORK FOR THESE PEOPLE! DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE!!! Completely unethical and unprofessional!

Nothing but Lies, Lies, Lies...!

AUTHOR: TIRED OF NOT BEING PAID - (United States of America)

POSTED: Saturday, August 28, 2010

Once again I would like to affirm that this commission was NOT paid to me.  I never received a single dime, even though the owners were well aware of the fact that I am a single mother of 5 young children.  Numerous attempts were made to these heartless individuals, pleading for my commission which I had earned for deals that I had closed.  I further affirm and attest that it WAS in fact American Power & Light for whom I worked.  I stand by my statements and assure you that this company is run by unethical scam artists.  BEWARE!!!! DO NOT WORK FOR THEM or DO BUSINESS with THEM, TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE.  I will be more than happy to put this information in a sworn affidavit if need be.  Sincerely,  TIRED

This commission was paid

AUTHOR: Lynn Alberino - (United States of America)

POSTED: Thursday, July 08, 2010

This commission was PAID. The person who is claiming this report was not employed by American Power & Light. She worked for a broker that was hired by American Power & Light. We employed the broker only! The broker WAS PAID on this deal. This report should not be directed towards American Power & Light. Our financial obligation was met with this broker.
