    Lets just hope Helion did not get the flight contract then if they are so on paying!

    They didn't... ;)
  • I also did 5 jobs in March, which i was promised on Monday, would be paid "this week".
    Please keep us all informed. I, myself am very interested in when you will finally get paid, if at all. I think a lot of us did assignments for them in April (I did 11). I hope it wasn't all in vain. At least the only outlay was petrol and time. Luckily no reimbursements due!

    I think you should all give Max a little leeway here. ;)

    It's a new company and IIRC the jobs didn't incur any outlay on your behalf.

    He does come on here often to try to explain things which is 100% more than other MS companies do :cool:

    And Yes, they did not get the Flights :)

    I don't think that's strictly true really if you take into consideration travelling expenses and time. Whilst doing those jobs I could have been doing others for a different company, so if there's problems with payment then those of us that did these jobs will be out of pocket purely because we could have been out earning elsewhere.

    I know Max comes on here, but he hasn't actually been on here since the beginning of the week IIRC, and obviously we are all still a little concerned.

    I agree with BMan about giving some leeway. Also, I concur that we have had more transparency so far from Helion than we are ever likely to see from most other companies.

    As we all know, payments get delayed, even with the long-established companies. Quite often, the policy is that assessors do not get paid until the client has accepted the work, or even (in some cases) paid the agency. As has already been said, at least none of us is waiting for reimbursements as well as fees.

    Too short, too old, wrong kind of leaves on the track ........ there seem to be a lot of exclusions for me at the moment.:rotfl:
