Finally..... In September 2012, the scheduler told me that BARE would publish an updated pay statement.... It has taken 15 months for BARE to be somewhat forthright in their payment schedule. If you have gone out on a limb for BARE and put money out up front over $500 in one month.... they do NOT pay you in a timely manner.
The issue still at hand.... that they justify that they cannot sent an electronic payment over $500... no, but they could still keep the payments timely by sending two electronic payments to those who have gone out on a limb for them.
I was told....
"As you have conducted many shops, we want to ensure that we are providing you with the correct payment, therefore we conduct numerous quality checks in house regarding the payment before it’s sent to you. If we were to provide payment via direct deposit, we would lose out on the “extra eyes” for each payment and could potentially result in you receiving an incorrect payment. We pride ourselves on timely and correct payment therefore we take the extra time and energy to ensure your payment is correct via check. "
The lie is that they are doing the checks to protect me. They are doing the additional checks and delaying good shoppers payments because no matter what... they still don't trust shoppers in their data base.
Now... if you read the reason why my payment was held it is for the "extra eyes" with no mention of top limits on electronic transfers.... So... I put it out there for you.... both statements are written from the desk of Bare International.
