WHYD IT TAKE SO LONG 2 RECEIVED MY MONEY??


Question Posted Monday April 22 2019, 6:36 pm


I was discharged from work 3.5 weeks ago and I get paid weekly...for some reason I hadn't received my final paycheck as law states, I should've received it the following week after my discharge....welp, I called my office three times and left vms concerning this issue.. and no one called me back....so today I called corporate and filed a lost check/never received form and informed the office that the site I worked at is very unprofessional as to not returning my phone calls concerning my paycheck/money that I earned....lo and behold after nearly a month goes by my check is in the mail today...was I wrong for informing corporate of the issue or should I have waited even longer??

You did the right thing. Corporate isn't always aware of what is happening off site from them. For what ever reasons the site you worked at had they were wrong for not sending your final check.

You had two choices the first being to inform corporate. The second was to file a complaint with your states wages and hours board. Had you gone the second route the company could have bee fines for not paying you promptly.

FYI: You are entitled to interest on the lay payment. It probably doesn't amount to much though it is required by law in most states.
