Stough
Enterprises of Ohio offered me a job in Milwaukee, WI.
I accepted the position with the agreement that they provide
moving expenses and corporate housing for myself and my fiancee and her
children. The company
insisted that the moving expenses be billed directly to them.
While
in Milwaukee Chris of People's Mayflower met with my fiancee at my
residence and then drove to her residence to provide estimates.
Peoples demanded a creidt check from Stough and all payment
arrangements were made directly between Stough and People's Mayflower.
The
estimates were provided to Stough as both sets of furniture were put
into a storage facility while we resided in corporate housing until we
found a home.
After
finding a home we had our furniture delivered to Wisconsin.
The furniture was damaged and we filed a claim against the full
replacement value insurance we had
elected for almost $10,000.
It
seems People's Mayflower lost or never had an agreement
signed with Stough. The
$3,000 estimate became $6,000. upon
billing. Stough refused to
pay.
Meanwhile
the company fires me. I
forwarded my employment contract from the company to People's Mayflower
in hopes of settling my insurance claim.
They then refuses to pay my fiancee's portion of the moving
expenses stating that People's Mayflower could not prove they were
obligated to pay because they only had a verbal agreement.
Therefore,
People's is now suing me for $2,700 and refuses to pay my damages of
almost $10,000.
Additionally, some of my belongings were stolen.
Now,
I am in a strange state with a woman and 3 children left out in the cold
as soon as I put up all my money for a home.
I have $10,000 of furniture intentionally destroyed and People's
Mayflower is suing me for $2,700.
I
feel like putting a gun to my head. I will most likely file a chapter 7
because of this and we may end up homeless.
