Google "late payment law" definitely worth putting that clause on all invoices from now on. Compensation depending on amount owed and a percentage above Bank of England base rate, calculated daily.

great website, used it a couple of times in the past

Company i work for say`s
Any amount not settled at this time will be subject to interest at a rate of 10% over the xxxx bank rate accured on a daily basis plus any expenses incurred.
Don`t know if it`s legal or not but it`s there in Black n White.

I nearly had a seizure today, bloody woman didn't have any money to pay for the boiler service. It's an on going repair, but it's just not good enough. I even offered to take her to the bank and I even said I had enough room for her wheelchair in the van. Some people pffft.

Been their before invoices build up and up before you know it your outstanding 20 k, Knocked all that aggro on the head way to risky and waiting weeks on end for payment only to be told when it's due payroll have forgot to put them through.

Now doing site work(which is coming to end) so paid end of week and do lots of little bits which rapidly mounts up.

Seems to be a good way to play this game

I've got a builder only owes me £140.00 it's coming up to a month now, when I went out to the job it had to be put at the highest priority because it was holding the job up (not sure why he didn't notice the 2 pipes in the back of the cupboard when he priced the job) I spoke to him after I had finished the job and he said he would pay as soon as I got the invoice to him.

My dad is the accountant for a few local businesses so I asked about him only after the job did he remember he is a pain to get the money out of!

 

[Millsy 82]

The ones that annoy me the most though are the ones that decide they have to nip off before you have finished thinking they will get out of paying.

If you walked out if tescos saying get the bill to me and I will pay it you'd get arrested.

For fear of generalising, landlords and letting agents are ****bags.
Not many are honourable or trust worthy.
Jobs I've done such as bathrooms it's absolutely made clear that full payment Is due immediately, and I double check bluntly they can afford to do that.

had a cheque bounce once, straight in the van to the customer, who informed me she was off on holiday and would sort it when she got back. I informed her my van was in her drive until she found the cash, so she wouldn't be going off anywhere in her car! She immediately agreed to hop in the van to go to the bank to withdraw the cash, which we did. She got quite arsey when I drove home and parked up leaving her to walk the mile or so home

Would pretty much agree with this. The only one we've managed to build a long term relationship with is Your Move as they pre-authorise us to charge up to a certain amount for each job. Saves wasting lots of time going out to quote for toilet repairs that the landlord then says are too expensive!!

I've been lucky with landlords.

I put on the invoice payment 7 days unless otherwise agreed. Late payments incur a fee.

Usually get paid ok. I won't work for anyone I don't like or trust (landlords/custards that is). I've been in properties with terrible tenants but as they're not paying I don't really care.

I don't really agree. Some good some bad. I avoid bad, don't need the hassle.
