Actually today I managed to get £20 out of a customer who had been ducking me since last summer with no intention of paying.
Despite several invoices, several visits face to face and plenty of promises to pay I never received a bean.
Today I managed to catch her, again it was blah blah blah, after the third blah I chipped in and said I would now give her 7 days in which to pay the full amount otherwise it would be passed over to , lets say mickey mouse debt agency. And that once it was passed over to them then it was out of my hands.
With this she got in her car drove to the bank and was back in a flash with a score whilst I was still cleaning next door.
She never once apoligised but did mention she and her partner were finding it tough and were being chased left right and centre by other debt agencies , she has my sympathy there as I in the past have been there , but what I cant understand is why the heck did she ask me to clean her windows every two months back in the summer, knowing that they were up the creek without a paddle financially?
I too have gas elec, mortgage, insurance, income tax food etc etc etc to pay.
Rant over lol
