i use SAE for some of my out of the way single accounts and some of my other custys pay 3 or 4 months in advance!but overall a lot pay when i clean and i find 2 hours a week collecting is all i need to do now.a lot of my work compact so when i finish work i usually spend 10 mins knocking for money for that days work.2 cleans then no more till i get paid!!simple!

I'm just a bit worried that we're all missing a trick here by focussing on how collecting is made simplier for US by using SAE.

Despite it being a pain, I've picked up loads of work by having those face-to-face 2 minute conversations at the door step, such as I was going to ask you to clean my guttering, my friend wants a window cleaner and two doors down have moved and even so-and-so says she's not seen her window cleaner for a few months.

Surely, thats what building a round is all about ?

i use the post office freepost system then it only costs me 22p when an envelope is used
i also have s/o paypal and online banking available

even with that over half my custys prefer to send chqs


you pay a £75 fee then just keep your reducing account balance topped up everynow and then.

providing paid envelopes was the best thing i did to get payments coming in quicker

how much does the post office charge you? is it just that £75? how long does that last for?

[ccmids]

pay within 14 days that sounds bad 

[d.ward]

3 days is more urgent
does anyone know what the post office charges for the stamps?
Would i get a discount for 1000 of em/
