My work progress and diary

Payment 3

D Day tomorrow I am afraid. Sittingbourne you have had long enough now, and after numerous broken promises, I think your time is up.  We have done the work and we would like to get paid as promised. 
 
Hate doing this, no really, but you do not go into a sweet shop, or any shop for that matter, without the thought of paying for what you want.
 
A debt collection firm is the only option now, after three weeks of hell trying to get my money owed. Time has run out!!

Payment part two

Well another week has nearly passed and I am still waiting for the balance of the Sittingbourne job, I do know how much more time I can give.  There is suppose to be a cheque in the post to me, and I can hear myself saying "lets hope so" ....again.
 
Legal terms are not my way at all but needs must I think!

Payments

Payments are the life line of any business, whether its money coming in or paying the bills.  I have always liked to be on time.  Just recently I have done a garden in Sittingbourne for a client who was to say the least rather slow in paying.  The outcome has still to be resolved, I have been nothing but friendly as my terms and conditions state that weekly payments are required and the balance on the last of working. Well its been nearly two weeks since I finished the work and am still waiting for the balance.
 
I am not in the habit of treating people like this and have been very friendly and given quite a few chances for the payment to be sent.
 
Needs must I think.
 
Rest assured the last resort will be courts I suppose, I hate all this.  We do a "great job" their words not mine, and this is how we are treated.
 
Please do not take this to mind this is very unusual for MB Gardening Landscaping, extremely unusual.
 
We have always and will continue to be proud of our service and friendly approach to all customers, new and old.  
 
Its just sometimes you get this sort of thing, but as said it is extremely rare for us.
