changed all my cards, i had a nice fancy picture on there, nice writing

now just have a plain ticket

Windows Cleaned
my name, website telephone number

Date:        Price:

Cheques made payable to XXXX

Payment MUST be sent within 14 days

then my details at bottom
....

that was the front

then on the back clearly stating

...

PAYMENT DETAILS

It couldnt be simplar to send payment, just pop a cheque in SAE and send.

Cheques made payable to XXXX

Payment MUST be sent within 14 days.

If payment is not received within 30 days of clean then a late fee of £2.50 will be added to the bill

....

something similar to that

i was sick of getting messed around, but this really seems to be working

i dont think its offensive either, it clearly staing all youve gotta do is put cheque in envelope and send within 14 days...harldy un fair is it. if you dont your gonna be paying extra. quite simple. no other companies settle for, "oh ill give it to him next time" so why should i

LWC I like it, Im thinking about doing this myself too. Did you do this to every customer or just the late payers.

p.s. Keep us posted if there is any fallout.

I was the one that said about it in the first place m8, and yes there always has to be one (she cancelled on price increase on 50p after three years so no loss there really.

every customer, even the good ones, im stepping up a level in my business, i started over a year ago, went from a crappy old car to van, then pole system, then sign writting, then uniforms, employee so on so forth...onwards and up wards  ;)

i dont see why anyone can get funny, its not offensive, basically, youve got 30 days, pay t or your gonna be charged, simple

things are going this way (very bad language) i might try it  ;D

by the way, it was window washers idea that gave me this idea, genius in my opinion, cheers buddy

cheques are literally flying through the door, before id come home from work "oh no cheques" now, come home from work and heres £50 odd sitting there every day. so for that thank you windowwashers

as said, imagine ringing up the credit card company, what would they say, well late fee, and if your on a promtional rate i.e. 0% you loose it. £2.50 is a light telling off in my opinion, and if they do it and i charge them, i doubt very much they'll do it again

yours a business, RUN it like a business
