My experience with Ameristar (check the search messages) was exhausting. I quit working for them after working with them for a very long time (10+ years.) I finally got paid by posting on this site. I think that is the answer. Prior to my posting, they would not answer my calls or emails for weeks. I just refuse to work for a company that I have to chase to get paid.  I have got several calls since I quite working even though was paid in full finally. David Poole would ask if I have gotten paid because they noticed I had posted negative info on SOT. Of course that was months ago that I posted it. They should respond if enough people leave messages about non-payment here.

Good Luck to you guys I hope all works out.
