In early December of 2010 I was contracted by Marcher Media Corporation of Central Falls, RI (also operating in New York, NY) to perform a service and promised compensation at an agreed upon rate. After completing this service in a timely manner I requested payment but was not paid. I then followed up with repeated emails and phone calls. In mid February of 2011, at an in person meeting I was given a check to cover the cost of my services. I tried to cash the check several times without success and then began emailing and calling the business owner. It is now late March of 2011 and I still have not been paid by Marcher Media for work I did in December 2010.

My suggestion to anyone considering doing work for this company is to get paid up front if possible. In my experience they are unreliable. I got the complete run around. I was asked to wait a day to cash the check. I did. Then I was told money would be there by a certain date. I fell for this twice. It never was. Then I was told to forget about the check and promised cash. I went to the place the owner and I were supposed to meet so he could pay me. He never showed up. I have called and emailed him again, and again. He promised to send me a money order in the mail but never did. Since then he has ignored my email and phone calls. The only thing that has come of this is frustration and more of my time wasted showing up for meetings and making fruitless trips to the bank. In my experience you can not trust Marcher Media.
