Same thing happened with us...Priority Pay owes my company well over $700 that they collected from my payroll account but never paid the EDD or the IRS on our behalf. Instead, they KEPT it! I had to pay this amount on my own to the state and IRS...AGAIN...and have been 100% ignored by Priority Pay. You can never speak to a "human". They just connect you to voicemail and you never get a call back, even after repeated calls.
After a little more research online today, I found that two of their employees were just charged with embezzling $585, 000, and the president of the company (Jerry Carter - the one who never calls you back) was just arrested, as well. Here is a link on that: http://www.nj.com/mobile/articles/paper1.ssf?/base/news-2/126414516374640.xml&coll=3
Anyone else thought about getting together on a class-action on these guys or anything? Otherwise, I see no way of ever getting back the money they stole from us.
There is a Google Groups victims board you can join where everyone is getting together at: http://groups.google.com/group/first-priority-pay-scam-victims?hl=en
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
My company has been scammed out of $24, 000 to the IRS. Although FPP filed BK, the owner and / or the person in charge of making sure the taxes were paid cannot get out from under the claim personally as they have trustee liability. Are there any attorneys out there taking these cases?
May this CSucker rot in hell. His company took over $40, 000 in pay roll taxes from my small business and stole it.
I also was a victim and had over 20, 000 taken from me, not paid to the IRS, and kept by Priority Payroll. My email is personaltouchbodyjewelry@yahoo.com if anyone recovers funds from Priority Payroll and knows how to go about getting my money back, please email me.
Sad thing is priority pay's owner filed bankrupcy. He even didnt file his own taxes and is in trouble with IRS. I went to court for how he treated me as an employee and he never showed am waiting more than 2 years for justice. the man is a monster and those who stole are not too far behind him .. I am sorry how you or anyone has suffered. I am waiting for justice to happen for me.! joy
I had no idea First Priority Payroll was a scam company. I seriously thought the Georgia Department of Revenue and IRS had accounting issues, but I see that this Company withdrew the withholdings from my Company's account and didn't forward it to them. This is unreal, but so helpful. I have filed an Appeal with the State and t his information should help my case. I just saw that they filed Bankruptcy and anyone with a Claim can contact them. I will be doing that now. This is truly unbelievable. Now I know why their processing rates were so cheap, they was making money from stealing from everyone each pay period.
