Vivint mandatory training class action lawsuit lawyers have launched an investigation into whether or not the company adequately compensated employees who underwent seminars, lectures or other meetings in order to continue on their jobs.
The Department of Labor has established a four-step procedure for determining whether or not such activities must be considered as part of a worker’s hourly pay. In order for it to be uncompensated, “it is outside normal, it is voluntary, not job related, and no other work is concurrently performed,” according to a fact sheet discussing hours worked under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Just as companies cannot ask employees to clock out for breaks or before their shift is done, any mandatory training that does not meet all of those four standards must also be included in a worker’s pay. It is believed that Vivint may have possibly not done so in certain instances regarding its training. It is also possible that travel costs may have been incurred above and beyond those accounted for by the FLSA and Department of Labor regulations.
Vivint is a company with international operations that began as a home security company in 1997. It has expanded to provide home automation related to home security as well as solar panel installation in California and other states.
However, the company has also been linked to unpaid training class action lawsuits before. It was accused of robocalling cellular phones in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act in two separate Vivint class action lawsuits, and the company has also either been charged or settled lawsuits regarding deceptive marketing practices or fined for code violations by 14 states.
The potential Vivint lawsuits would be similar to unpaid wage class action lawsuits regarding misclassification of workers as either exempt or subject to a tipped wage when they are not performing those kinds of duties. However, many people are only becoming aware more recently of the full scope of their rights as workers, including pay for mandatory training.

I purchased Samsung Black Stainless appliances in 2018. Refrigerator, Stove, Microwave hood, and dishwasher, with 5 years coverage. Hence, the finish is peeling off. its as if its a thin plastic coat over the stainless. Im very disappointed. Three years later and they start looking aweful Should these appliances not look better than this after 3 years. Appliances have been known to last alot longer, but the appearance should last as well. Samsung, and home depot have told me that its cosmetic and its not covered by my coverage. What can be done . Now i need new appliances. I cant afford new appliances every 3 years. :(

Can I start a class action lawsuit against a private postal company for making me pay them for extra months and refusing to allow me to transfer my mail traditionally once I had a new address to receive my mail
I see a misleading trend starting among our elderly in Texas, and other states around the country with regard to Reverse Mortgage companies. My father who was 87, passed recently and he signed a loan with Finance of America, a reverse mortgage company at the age of 86 in 2021. My father was not of sound mind at the time, and should not have been taken advantage of by such company. Me and my family had plans to keep my father’s property, and my father only had about $65,000 more to pay the house off. However, because Finance of America has such high interest rates, the total amount due to purchase the property has ballooned to a ridiculous amount of $95,000 and counting, in less than 8 months. According to information that I received, the family is supposed to get at least a year before coming up with funds to purchase the property after my father passed. However, I continue to receive notices from the reverse mortgage company regarding foreclosure and requesting doing a short sale. My father has barely been gone 2 months, and we’re receiving such notices. Although I sent them a death certificate, and signed copy of a Durable Power of Attorney, I can’t get anyone at the company to talk to me about the matter because I wasn’t listed on the loan. Can someone please help!!
PayPal froze my account and took all my money
when my account was first limited I called immediately to find out why, I was told it was for violating the terms of use policy, I asked what part of the policy specifically did I violate and was told i would have to get a subpoena to find that out, the customer service lady told me at the end of 180 days I would be contacted on how to go about withdrawing the funds from my account.
On or around day 144 i checked on my balance and discovered that PayPal had transferred without my permission my entire balance to themselves, at the 180 day mark I contacted Paypal and was told my funds had been taken for damages they incurred by my violating the terms of their acceptable use policy
I have all of this documented with a timeline, screenshots and even have the phone call to customer service recorded (I record all calls ) where I was told I needed a subpoena just to find out why the closed my account,, I still to this day do not know why,, I do have an idea now, I had access to my sons account to do his shipping from his paypal account on the days he had college classes and also I helped my daughter and ex wife set up their accounts and start selling on ebay, these were all legitimate accounts and separate from mine and they closed all four of our accounts, but still it doesn’t seem like PayPal can just seize my money with no explanation.
I have all my contact with PayPal documented, the messages I sent through the contact us/help on site, screenshots of my account and all the messages sent to me by them, I have just had a terrible time trying to find anyone that would go up against PayPal, I will attach the screenshot of them withdrawing my funds to them.
I really appreciate your time to read this and hope you can help me,
Thank you very much
Not sure if this would qualify as a class action, however, the actions as well as non actions of this party has caused great physical, mental, emotional, financial hardship to millions of people, world wide and should be held responsible!
I am referring to the Chinese Government and it’s reckless disregard, deception and non disclosure of the Covid virus’s existence, neither to the World Health Organization nor to travellers into China, then to those leaving China carrying and transmitting the virus globally.
The effects of this will be felt for years, decades, possibly many generations to come, having cost, every nations government, globally, in billions of dollars toward responsive and protective measures, as well as the citizens in finacial, mental, emotional, physical trauma, pain, disability and death! As far as I am concerned, I believe China’s careless negligence and disregard for humanity added to the severity and spread of the Covid virus and it’s variants, by a million fold, and they should be held accountable to every person on the planet!!!!
Altice charges a month ahead, when disconnected my services my current bill was paid off during August of 2019. However, I recently opened and account with the company Optimum AKA “Altice” January 03, 2022 I have been trying to pay my bill and they’re telling me that I have to pay the bill for 2019, I informed them that this bill was sold to three different collection agencies were at the time I provided that my bill was zero balance. Now the ending of February and they are placing a charge of 810.00 as my bill. Refusing to accept the proper payment and providing the previous bill in dispute. My bill is supposed to be 202.00 month and they’re charging 285.00 a month. Can you please assist me, I’m sure that there’s more of us out here who are being charged for services that where not rendered by the company.
I was parking my car when all of a sudden with my foot on the brake the car went out on control with my foot on the brake and flew fast and crashed into a building. The car was a 2017 volkswagen golf. I could have been killed if I didn’t have my seat built on and the air bags deployed. It was a horrible experience and my license was suspended. I have done a lot of research and found that quite a number of others have had the same experience. There is a name for it —- sudden unintended acceleration. Meanwhile I couldn’t get anything out of volkswagen and the RMV is slow as molasses. They think I am a danger on the road, but my foot was on the brake when this was happening. I have had to spend thousands of dollars getting around by uber and of course I had to hire a lawyer. It has been truly horrible. I wonder if any of you out there have had a similar problem.
Simplepractice in an electronic record and telehealth portal used my psychotherapist and other clinical providers. The service prior to 2020 was $49 dollars and $10 additional for the video platform. during the course of 2020, the company sought improvement feedback from customers through an online Facebook group. the company has since raised all plans by ten dollars with a few week’s notice which felt fair.
Then a few months later announced a tiered system. This issue is that the professional plan that was once $59, then $69 is now $99. That seems unfair to the people who support and pay for the service. The reason it’s class-action worthy is that there are now 3 tiers; basic features like calendar syncing and text reminders are not included in any but the highest level plan. The company illegally sought what basic features clinicians liked best and essential made all the offered plans obsolete with the exception of the highest-priced plan. The other two are essentially subpar and not tech-appropriate for 2022.
Not only was their position in their self-led Facebook group misguided it was financially abusive and manipulative, particularly that for the past three years the platform has been riddled with tech, audio, video, and sound issues. several reports of clients entering the wrong room and seeing clinicians and another patient they didn’t know and the company then blaming the users. Informing client claims were received by insurance companies but in fact weren’t there are so many consumer and HIPPA violations is ridiculous.
I have a 2010 Ford Edge Limited.
It has 111,000 miles on it. I purchased a car shield warranty on December 7th, 2021.
I had a recall on my air bags that I scheduled to have replaced by a Ford Dealership Service Dept . I called to make an appointment to have them replaced on December 27th but scheduled for January 10th 2022, I got covid and rescheduled for January 19th.
I took the car in, and asked them to look the car over for any other problems, because of the age and miles, while they had it there, as I hate being without a car. They replaced my windshield washer nozzle and fixed my remote starter. They also found the 4×4 differential transfer unit had a leak, but it is not serviceable, the whole unit needed to be replaced, as Ford quit making the Edge like this in either 2013 or 2016, I can’t remember which, but they never recalled these cars for replacements.
Car shield said it was a pre existing condition and they don’t cover leaky valves or hoses. They also argued about the dates I had it to the shop, they said they had proof that my car put out a code on December 23rd which was before my warranty was in effect. I told them I was going to seek a lawyer and I wanted a denial letter and proof of my cars code on the 23rd. I still have not received that letter as per my phone calls after the 26th of January. It is now February 17th. Still nothing! I have cancelled their contract, but I know that I am in the right, and they are in the wrong
Plus I think Ford should’ve recalled this unserviceable problem after they knew about the problem and started making them serviceable after either 2013 or 2016, I can’t remember the year, but we You Tubed and watched the video on how to fix this problem, and it tells you all this that I just told you.
Please check this out and advise on this matter. Thank you
