Italk wireless
Pyramid scheme

Italk Wireless, a verizon wireless franchise, is a terrible place to shop, and an even more terrible place to work. I am one of the victims who worked for this poor exuse of a company.

First thing that caught my attention was on my first paycheck, I had had $125 deducted from it, I called owner, Amir, and asked why, well it turns out that in the 15 page new hire paperwork, in very very fine print, it stated that each new hire would have $125 taken out for keys... Keys are $2.00there screams out pyramid scheme...

Second thing I noticed was that they never had any inventory of phones, how can you run a sucessful business and expect your staff to get results when you aren't even giving them the necessary tools to be sucessful? Aside from the inventory issue, the upper management treats the employees like crap, they make you work 12 hour shifts, with no break, and tell you if you get caught sitting down at any point they will deduct $50.00 from each paycheck!

Myself and about 10 other people that I worked with have been shorted hours, and money on every single paycheck, and have never recieved a paycheck on time. Who wants to work for a company where you have to worry about getting paid? Seems like the owners of Italk spend too much time shopping for new company vehicles, going out to lunch, and changing sales quotas every day, and not enough time running their "business".

Consumers beware. Do not purchase a cell phone from these crooks, they will overcharge you, and charge you a $75 restocking fee if you want to return your device. If you are planning on getting a family plan with iphones you can forget about it, Italk gives a 2 iphone maximum per customer, and the employees have to call their dms (who never answer) to get approval, crazy right? Go to a corporate location where you will not get ripped off, plus, this company will not be around much longer i can garantee you.

Now when I say the company will not be around much longer, I mean it. My dm actually told me something interesting about these crooks when I questioned all of the company vehicles, turns out they are all leased vehicles and owner Amir knows someone who sets the miles back when they turn them in so they don't get fined! That is mileage fraud and is a felony charge!
