Thread by @TheLongeXlan

Monday, 21 October 2019, I wrote an email to @PayPorte requesting that they pay me salary owed within the period of February - June 2018. This is a follow up from countless emails I've written to the company requesting same.

@PayPorte @eyobassey and @PayPorte are yet to respond to my emails and yet to pay me what is owed. I will be publicizing the pain this company has put me through if, by close of business today, my emails are still being ignored.

@PayPorte @eyobassey I gave your organisation one-month advance notice before resignation and did not get a response until September of 2018.

@PayPorte @eyobassey It was surprising that
@PayPorte
whilst sponsoring the 2018 edition of
@BBNaija
, were owing us so much but we believed that the system would reward us for our hard work. We bought into the company philosophy.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija On receipt of the above-attached letter, I requested that the breakdown of the total sum be made available to me as this amount had been drastically reduced.

I received the email below acknowledging the error.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @PayPorte as initially stated, if I am yet to receive an official response to my email by close of business today, I would proceed with publicizing the full details of my ordeal with your organization.

Thank you.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh My email dated (October 5th, 2018) responding to the acknowledgement of the totalling error and requesting that this be rectified officially via a formal letter.

I got no response

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh My email dated (December 27, 2018) over 90 days later. No communication, No response from @PayPorte

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh My email dated (October 21, 2019) notifying @PayPorte of planned action if I am still being ignored.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh Close of business is almost here and I am yet to receive a response from @Payporte & @eyobassey

Due to this, I will be forced to speak louder and publicize further, the gross unprofessionalism and utter disregard by @eyobassey and @PayPorte as well as owed salaries to me.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh The issue of owed salaries had started long before I resigned. It started August 2017 when our salaries were delayed by one month, this continued towards the end of the year
with increasing progression.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh As at December 2017. I was owed at least 2 months salary. A couple of staff resigned, many more voiced concerns but all this fell on deaf ears.

It was to our greatest shock when we were informed that Payporte would be sponsoring the 2018 edition of the Big Brother show.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh We said to ourselves, how can this be given
that we were yet to be paid for so long.
More people left the company but I had hoped that things would turn around and that post-Big Brother 2018 all our arrears would be paid in full. Little did I know

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh Big Brother ended on April 2018 and that same April 2018 we received January Salary alone.
See details of sequence of salaries paid:

Nov 2018 Salary: (paid 14th February 2018)
Dec 2018 Salary: (paid 14th March 2018)
January 2018 Salary; (paid 19th April 2018)

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh Dear @eyobassey,
It is important for you to note that no one is blackmailing you. I have kept quiet for close to a year and have decided to keep quiet no more.

All I ask is that your organisation pays me what is owes me

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh After I resigned and sent countless emails to @PayPorte, I finally received a letter of response in September 2018 stating that I will be paid 90 days on receipt of that letter.

90 days expired in December 2018, and I sent another email to @PayPorte. My email was ignored.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh @PayPorte @eyobassey

As stated in my email,

Kindly pay me my wages totalling [NGN 348,960.11 ] owed to me by your organisation.

I worked for it and I have been patient enough.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh As also stated in my email,

I will not hesitate to write a report of complaint to the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment @LabourMinNG as well as take full legal action if payment of my entitlements is not made.

Regards,
ALONGE, Olanrewaju.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh If you check Nairaland, you'd see that this is not an isolated case.

There is also an article by @Techpointdotng referencing the complaints that have been raised on this platform by another aggrieved victim of @PayPorte

techpoint.africa/2018/03/27/pay…

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh @Techpointdotng All of this was in March 2018 before I even resigned from the company.

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh Correction pls:

Nov 2017 Salary: (paid 14th February 2018)
Dec 2017 Salary: (paid 14th March 2018)
January 2017 Salary; (paid 19th April 2018)

@PayPorte @eyobassey @BBNaija @SubDeliveryZone @segalink @lazywritaNG @IsimaOdeh Sir? Blackmail? Is it blackmail to request that I am paid what I am owed within the period of February-June of 2018?

Kindly pay me salaries owed as I worked very hard for your organisation and followed due procedure when resigning. @PayPorte @eyobassey

Thank you.
