I agree with you Cannr. I believe our HR person just wants to make sure that all their T's are crossed and I's dotted. Yes, I am confused. The wage assignment she signed in 2004 was for Coastline Credit Corp, which was the parent of Sonic Payday but in the last year, from what I can see and to my recollection, Northway Corp. was the name that the payments came out of. As I find out more information, I will advise you. Thanks to all for your advice.

ctr, please let us know how this turns out. I'm so curious. This is the weirdest wage assignment situation I've come across so far. Just goes to show you - we'll never know everything these companies try to pull!

I was told by my co-worker, the one with the Sonic Payday issue that the HR Department is going to hold that money, $551.00 until the dispute is resolved. They are going to contact the company and advise the same. She tried to give our HR department the wage assignment recision for any future amounts that come in but the HR Administrator said she did not need to do that. I am so Confused

kash...long story on this one. Employer not being cooperative and I think its a lack of knowledge on behalf of the empployer. Withholding the wages to cover thier A$$.
But I agree 100%...no dispute. The PDL will battle this until the cows come home!

I agree. So I explained to my co-worker to speak with my attorney at the office who is a consumer affairs and wage and hour attorney and give her the story on this matter. You are right, the wage assignment is voluntary and the company can either say yes or no to the wage assignment. I am very confused and I feel for my friend because now the HR head wants to know who she is speaking to at the AG's office, name and number which I believe is very intrusive and not anyones business. I am so surprised by the decision of our HR head. The company is illegal, it is not licensed in any state. They are based out of the Republic of Malta. If they were to try to validate the debt they could not. I don't see the issue?

It really is not up to the company to say yes or no to a wage assignment. It is the employees right to revoke it, and the employer needs to understand that. Once a wage assignment is revoked it should end there

I feel for your friend too....this is frustrating especially when the evidence is stacked in her favor.

I have to jump in here and agree that a telephone call needs to be made to the state labor board. What the hell "they're holding the money"??? You've GOT to be kidding me. Your friend has more in her favor than she even needs and your company is still doing this? Labor board.

I agree Cannr. Also, I am confused why our HR department head wants a contact at the AG's office regarding her complaint. That seems so odd and in any event the AGs office will not release any information to them. Go figure.

Your HR manager is a nut job! It's not the HR managers "job" to delve into the personal business with the AG. Like you stated, the AG isn't going to tell your HR manager squat. If I was your friend, I do believe steam would be coming out of my ears right about now. I find this amazing. Especially since this is a LAW FIRM you work at! Hello! How can they not realize all this?

You and I both. I find it extremely troubling. I have a call into my attorney at the office to discuss. I am surprised by this but then again, at this point, nothing would surprise me anymore. I just don't get it.
