Rich,

Get a gun.

A Browning 9mm is a fairly decent weapon.  It holds 12 rounds and can fire them as quickly as you can pull the trigger.

Aim low though, it has a tendancy to jump.

Ok so you got the money but I think the prce was too high (and I don't mean the price you were charging).
I'm owed £70 by an ex customer at the moment.  I still have his letter where he gives me the cheque number that he paid with.  I photocopy all cheques before banking and I've never received it so have some sort of evidence that it wasn't paid.  It is quite possible that Royal Mail have lost/misdelivered it as they have done this before. He has still not responded to my letter of early December so it's time to post another reminder asking to be paid within 28 days.  The one after that will be the threat of small claims court.  I've never done this before but I will make an exception if this guy doesn't cough up.

Shiner,

Why?  If the 'softly softly' approach doesn't work, what's wrong with threatening them with a 'metaphorical' big stick?

I'm not advocating violence, as that would be wrong; unless it was in self-defence; usually.  But what's wrong with pointing out that the customer WILL ACTUALLY PAY, one way or the other?

From a philisophical point of view, why do you think this is morally wrong?

It could develop into the start of a very slippery slope IMO Tosh.  I am prepared to use the small claims court on this one though.  Making threats or dropping hints that I would be prepared to do dodgy stuff is not the way I want to go about things Tosh.  It doesn't feel right for me.

Ok, OK.  I'll be a bit more honest about this.  I did some pretty bad things as a young man (don't press for details as there's no way I'm going to put such stuff on a public forum). and I got to a point - around 30 years of age - when I stepped back, took a long hard look, and was horrified at what I'd become.  So I made some big changes.  So, in answer to your question, I know what I was once capable of and I've no wish to engage in anything that could start me back on the slippery slope.  I just want peace in my life these days.  It's a much better way.

Roger,

It's got nothing to do with that, just with what's right and what goes around comes around.

Wor Lass often orders stuff out of 'Betterware' and invariably it naff.

But she always coughs up; no argument. 

Gutter cleaning isn't the most glamorous of jobs.  We don't do it for fun. 

I don't think threatening customers with vandalism is professional behaviour, but I can understand why it's done.

I've felt ripped off (and have been ripped off) on a few occassions, and although I've made a big song and dance about it, I haven't yet took revenge.

Not yet.

Shiner,

If you give the customer the benift of the doubt. Fine the £70 cheque as been lost by the Royal Mail. You know you have not recevied it.

Ask the customer to show you his bank statement when it arrives, to see what as happened to the cheque.

He will realize the missunderstanding, and it will be egg on his face not yours.

Regards Nel.
