I worked for Encore doing one Nike event in Honolulu. I was a college student and it was my last semester, and so I had to have my paycheck sent to my parents' address in my hometown in Pennsylvania. I did put my current (at the time) Honolulu mailing address into my profile when I first signed up. However, when I sent my W9 forms I requested that my paycheck be sent to the mailing address I specified in my W9 forms.
So after I got back home after graduating, I sent an email to Encore inquiring about my paycheck, as it had been over a month. I was told only then that it had already been sent to the address in my profile. The address I had moved out and had no communication with at all, in a neighborhood with a high number of thefts. I told them to immediately stop payment on the check because I was worried that it would be stolen.
They did not give me any notice on whether they had or not, just gave me runaround emails, like this example:
"If you had a specific request regarding your paycheck, you should have told the Booker. The records dept. Is at another location, and there is no way of knowing whether or not they received your note. And they gave me no contact info of these bookers or records dept.
They left me a voicemail to call them, I called and got a runaround on the automated voice system.
I am really fed up with them. They owe me over $300 for the work I did for them.
