Staywell Research Medicus Research I completed their TERS1000 main study and have not received the promised compensation Northridge California

I was referred to Staywell Research by a friend. He was going to participate in a joint pain research study and asked me if I would like to participate as well. I agreed to participate and he would receive $25.00 for referring me. We signed up together, scheduled our appointments together and we both completed the study. We were told that we would receive our compensation by mail within 60 days. My Stipend Payment Log / Request for compensation was approved, dated, signed and submitted on 10/10/2014. As of today's date, I have not received my compensation, nor have I received any returned calls from the emails or messages I have sent requesting the compensation I had earned. This is absolutely ridiculous, unfair and very frustrating. I now see that I am not alone in this unfortunate situation after reading the horror stories that numerous people have published. I just hope Staywell Research / Medicus Research will realize their wrong doing is hurting their participants and finally make good on their promises. The participation in their study was enjoyable, however the resentments their shady compensation department causes quickly over-shadows everything!
