D'Avanzo - Keith D'Avanzo Failure to pay

I worked for D'Avanzo Inc.in January for a Superbowl promotion for Bellatoria Pizza in Clearwater FL. I received the same run around about payment, and was finally promised the checks would be mailed out April 6. I have yet to receive payment, along with anyone that worked at the Clearwater location.

Yes it was made clear that payment would take 45 business days by Keith D'Avanzo. We were even sent an excel spreadsheet highlighting those 45 business days, which showed that payment would be sent out April 6. Phone calls and email still haven't been returned regarding payment. The "office" phone number for D'Avanzo Inc. Is actually a fax number.

On April 10, we all received an email from Keith that stated:

"Dear Brand Ambassadors,

All paychecks will be put in to the mail tomorrow first thing. Please allow a few days for the US Postal service to deliver your checks.
—
Thank You"

After weeks going by with no paycheck and multiple emails about payment, we all finally received this exact same copy and pasted reply to our questions from Keith D'Avanzo on April 21:

"When the email was sent out that checks have arrived that ment bellatoria paid us because it was a large sum the bank tends to hold it longer than usual. Some checks have begun to go out cause the bank has released only part of the sum. Once the bank clears the rest the other half of the checks will be going out. We are sorry for the deley, you should receive your check with our next check payrole

We are sorry it took so long to get back to you.."

THEN after repeated phone calls and emails that weren't returned I received an email on April 30 from Keith D'Avanzo that said:

"Im out of town and my mobile signal is horrible West Bumble land VA. When that email went out it only meant we received the check from the client. First batch of checks went out 2 weeks ago. Then the bank released the second half of the check so now the second batch go's out at the end of next week that's when our cycle posts for payrole.."

It is now June 3, and we have yet to hear anything else about payment. Spread the word not to work for, or hire D'Avanzo Inc. Or Keith D'Avanzo. If you have not been paid by this client, please post your experience on here so that we can get together for a class action lawsuit if necessary.
