Unfriended by Cirrus for holding them to their own MSP

Yesterday I Emailed Cirrus about them being late on two payments per their own MSP being 45 days after visit pending acceptance. I also filed a BBB complaint and let ISS know that Cirrus was in breach of contract as an FYI because ISS controls which companies can post jobs here.


Two hours later payment for all four shops were paid in full! I went back on ISS yesterday evening to see if anything new had popped up on the available jobs and learned that Cirrus blocked me for taking action once they weren't following their own contract.


On the BBB complaint, I did state that if they were going to hold payment for 60-70 days, just simply update their TOS but as long as it states 45 days people are expecting those terms to be followed just like the schedulers are expecting contractors to follow their terms.


Not really upset at all, just an oddity for that one company. The others have all been exceptional though so I'd much rather not need to chase payments and need to send Email requests to even get things accepted after I had gone out of my way and took pretty much everything they had on the board so they could clear their queue.

If you refer to their pending payments, it indicates that Cirrus Marketing typically pays within 69 days. I would just wait patiently for that time to elapse.

Per their policy and from Debbie Depew, payment is 45 days after onsite visit. Where do the extra 24 days come from when the signed contract clearly states 45 but they're allowed to hold payment almost an entire month after that agreed on time passes? If they need more time to pay why not change the written contract to be more accurate instead of just lying to people?

AZ good job. Consider yourself lucky that you got paid and it shouldn't be this way of course. I've come across dozens of people, not counting this forum, that never got paid. I would avoid these people. Also consider yourself lucky that they don't want you working their stuff. Chasing them down for payment on work performed months ago is not part of the deal.


Not knowing Myron, my guess is they probably haven't done work for Cirrus.

I am going to contact the BBB because apparently that is the only way to get paid. When you wait 90 days for a $35 apartment shop, by the time you get the money, it's like you did the shop for free. There are plenty of higher paying, less time consuming jobs, with better MSPs who pay 45 days maximum. iSS really should not allow them to advertise their jobs here. Cirrus was my 3rd job ever and I am so glad that they did something really weird with another job I was supposed to do and I had already decided not to do any more work for them. They are completely unorganized and apparently unethical as well.

You'll more than likely get paid out, but then when you log back in you just won't see any more of their posts which is sort of nice because it just removes the clutter from jobs you didn't really want anyway. I'd also let ISS know they they're breaking their own contract just to to let them know. If enough people complain, hopefully Cirrus will get the idea and either fix the issues or stop posting their jobs here.
