MyTreo – the (non-payment) beat goes on

A few weeks ago, massive media exposure made the MyTreo folks understand that paying royalties is a good thing. Back then, Tadd Rosenfeld promised to pay all outstanding debts ASAP and switched his ESD to Mobihand: unfortunately, the promise still hasn’t been fulfilled.

Mobile-Stream has just informed us that they still didn’t get their money:

Here is a new mytreo.net thread.
It mentions that even mytreo.net Associated Developers (VoiceIt Technologies, for example) are not get paid.

It is very sad that I believed them and deleted my previous complaints on the forums.

We have held back on publishing this while trying to get hold of Tadd – to no avail. As Tadd seems to try the ostrich method here, I can recommend developers to start legal/execution proceedings ASAP. In Austria, this kind of behavior is typical for companies close to going belly-up…in such cases, the one who sues first usually gets his money.

I hereas urge everybody who still has significant debts at MyTreo’s to get in touch with an attorney immediately, and ignore any and all statements(except a wire transfer) coming out of the company. I am very sad to write this about a colleague I respect very much: but the employees of MT probably will try to keep you waiting for as long as possible.

The reason for this is simple: if they loose the suit, they have to pay all your court proceedings. You, on the other hand, have nothing to loose: they gain interest on your money every day they don’t pay you…

TamsPalm will keep a careful eye on MyTreo. Developers, please keep us posted about whatever happens next.
