Very quick update

Quick update on my last post - payment will arrive in my bank account tonight (3 weeks late) which will include the interest but not the compensation fee. (I've amended my invoices to actually state an amount in the text I put at the bottom - for an invoice of under £1,000 this will be £40, more for over £1,000.)

I haven't lost business as a result as they've been in touch twice this week about upcoming projects - one I can't do as I'm too busy to even blog at the moment.

Right, back to the grindstone (laptop) ...

Yea! I love good news!! I've only had worries about one client (KNOCK ON WOOD), and I finally got paid right before I started in with warnings and letters and such. I do work for larger companies, though, so I think that's why I don't worry too much. Anyway, glad to hear it!

Hi there, I found your previous post very interesting to read. I work as my husband's "accountant" (SAHM), and am having particular trouble with a client that never pays their invoices on time. I have contacted them with outstanding invoices with a late fee (2%, stipulated on the invoice), but they are now claiming that nobody ever pays late fees. I am now rather cross as they are obviously taking the piss. I'm glad to hear your payment came through in the end :)
