Yet another Person claiming Reynolds Metering Owes them Money

Another poor soul has posted a RipOff Report saying that too have no been paid for services rendered

I was hired via internet to read meters at commercial properties out of Fort Smith Arkansas.the agreement was 30 days net,witch meant I would get paid monthly about the same time I was to take reading again.I have taken the readings since September and have only been paid via paypal one time for Septembers readings.I have sent emails and left messages and they refuse to respond.I will no longer take the readings.They still owe me 3 months pay though.This is a sixty mile round trip for me and I have expenses for fuel,maintenance,and time.I do not understand why they would do this to people.It is so wrong in so many ways

Read the Report

It also appears Reynolds is not shutting down as was rumored as new Ads seeking more readers have appeared on Ebay Classifieds………

Reynolds Metering Selling Assets

We have had people reporting to us that Reynolds Metering Services is Closing, while I can not confirm this for sure,  Several of the Pending Court Cases have been resolved out of court, and Brian / Melissa appear to be in the process of selling off Assets,  this could be a restructuring, but I would rather hope the they have been forced out of business from not paying the 1000’s of contractors and employees that they refuse even respond to.

Selling the Family Home for $260K

Selling some Equipment

For all the innocent victims out there I hope they get a piece of that 260K and that we never hear from those 2 again,  if this is the end of Reynolds Metering I say Good Riddance they have plagued this earth long enough

Reynolds Metering: More Ripoff Reports

Reynolds Metering Services has Accumulated some more Negative press since our last round up on  7/11/2012

RipOff Reports:

Reynolds Metering Services RMS “WARNING” “Beware”

I was paid twice for reads but was left holding the bag for 6 reads totaling over $1,000.00. It was a real hassle getting paid the first two times. I spent numerous hours on the phone with Brian just having to listen to business matters that were not necessary for me to know. Then waiting, waiting and waiting for a check to arrive. I was promised a check for the last 6 reads but never received anything, then was unable to reach anyone by phone or e-mail.

employees beware! never work for this company

I worked for this company and I will never recommend this employer to anyone! I stopped work for them more than 3 month ago and they still didn’t pay me my salary for last three months. This is really bad, they just giving me promises which they never complete and now I have no idea will I get my money or no. These people have to be in a jail!

non pay

You have to call them and bother them, they think that if they ignore you, they don’t have to pay you for work completed. You can’t play with peoples money like that, call Brian at 3173410448 and Melissa at 3177972414, they need to be put on front street for what they are doing to people.
MP Technology Group
To to summarize,  Reynolds Metering Services currently owes me over $22,000 in unpaid compensation,  plus any additional damages or late fees I am owed by law.
…….
Well that is my story,  I hope it helps someone….  It is best to always get your payment upfront, and if you are going to work on deferment ensure it is for a very small amount.

Reynolds Metering Being Sued….. AGAIN

Looks like Reynolds Metering, aside from the many many RipOff Reports, and things he has done to independent contractors it looks like this time Reynolds Metering Services has actually caused one of their Clients to sue them

 

From what little information we can gather Autumn Lake Mobile Home Park signed up to have Reynolds Metering Install Water meters on their Property, paid a sizable deposit and then Reynolds Metering Services did not complete the job. Now of course these are just accusation at this point a Jury will have to decided if what ever reason Reynolds has is valid.

Reynolds Metering Lands a $120,000 Project

Well Reynolds Metering Services, LLC has managed to convince another small town to let them read their meters.  I hope it works out better for the Town of Southaven then it has the others.

Reynolds Metering has been posting Ebay Classified ads looking for reader from end of July to as recent as Early Oct,  but even then they somehow managed to get a “reading” done and bill the city $3,588.


I wonder if they will use any of that money to pay the 100’s of readers and ex-employees that they still owe money to?  Anyone want to bet me?  I am giving odds at 100:1 favoring   NO PAYMENTS

I have complied with the request to remove the “Know Clients” Page,  if you would like this inform leave a comment and I will still supply it.  It is public information.

I also find it comical that Reynolds believes they know who I am,  they do not.  While I have been in contact with many of their former employees and contractors, and have been able to compile a HUGE amount of info,  I am not nor was I in the past an Employee of Reynolds Metering.

Try Again Sweetheart……….

Reynolds Metering is at it again….

Another person, user “Rodney”, has complained of non-payment for services rendered. Reporting at Ripoff Report.com he says

He had the nerve to call me a jackass and tell me that he is doing me a favor by talking to me over the phone claiming he found me,  when in return I just want my check for completed work. He talks tough over the phone only because I will never see him in person.

Brian will never admit that he is the problem,  it is always someone elses fault, or it is your fault,  he is perfect in is own mind……

Its been since January since i got paid anything, I got one check for 60.00, after that nothing, and I only got it because I told them I didn’t have no gas to get to the property, so they sent a check over night.

This is a Good tip,  Often the only time I have heard people actually getting money is to have a sob story,  so make one up,  but I would advise taking any money you do get and running.  If you have to beg to get paid for work you do for a business then in my opinion that business is not worth working for,  but as always your an adult and make your own choices

It was suppose to be a 30 day pay period with them, but every month it was an excuse. They lost personnel, there behind on checks, blame it on Cindy, talk to Misty, now its Sarah at the front desk. I just called her and asked can I speak to someone in H.R. and she said its no one there.

They do have a very very high turn over rate for personnel,  There is no “HR” to talk to,  nor was “Rodney” and employee, he was a contractor.  Brian and Melissa own the business,  Sarah is their “assistant” or “unfortunate soul that accepted a job there”.   There is no other employees,  they have all quit, many of them(atleast 50% as of the time of this posting) because they were not paid either.

So I asked her was she the only one in the building and she kept referring back to Brian, contact Brian he’s over the payments of checks, but according to Brian, he is telling me that he has to get in contact with the company to see if they issued the check via email.

Probably “the check” is it talking about is getting a payment from a client, they are always cash strapped and operating expenses are paid from incoming revenue in real time with no reserves,  and that incoming revenue stream is often less than the expenses due thus why your payments are late, they are waiting for more invoices to be paid….  It is a never ending game of “rob peter to pay paul”.  Keep in mind that their vendors pay them on time, it is not a matter of Reynolds waiting for months to be paid for work completed,  no no their largest vendor pays them on average 14 days after Reynolds Submits the invoice.  They just do not have enough overall work to cover their fixed expenses AND pay the readers what they were promised.

Many small business have these cash flow problems, but with Reynolds Metering they seemed to have taken it to a whole new level.  Including refusal to pay contractors and vendors for services rendered,  and if they have no further use for your services good luck getting any money out of them.

I’ve not only read meters, I done service work with this guy over the phone, and his excuse is he has so many employees, i got lost in the shuffle. I am trying to be nice about this situation but this is not even my character.

Reynolds Metering currently has less than 50 Contract employees nationwide,  they have 3-4x that many that have quit. You did not get lost in the shuffle…..

They need to be stopped. I will post more about this company also.

They need Start operating in a open and honest manner, paying their contractors and vendors on time, every time.  Thousands of business’ do it every day,  the only reason I can see that Reynolds cant is a poor management team.
