only do one clean in future, they wouldn't leave it a month or 2 to pay any other bills

dont clean them anymore
but the best way to deal with them is to tell all the neighbours about them......nothing works like humility

eggs  ( well beaten )  flour  milk, fairy liquid bottle    shake well   squirt directly onto glass


you may not get your money but you get the satisfaction of knowing no other w/c will touch those windows


revenge is definately a dish best served cold

dont do it!!!!  can you imagine how that will look in the local paper?  WINDOW CLEANER STEALS YOUNG MUMS PRAM!!!

I know they say all pulicity is good publicity but there are limits.

and if it was was my wife/daughters pram you knicked I would tear your head off  ;) so think of the backlash.

I have answered this question before, but for those that missed it this is what I have done to good effect in the past.I tell a neighbouring customer that I keep missing Mrs Jones next door. Would they mind if she left an envelope with the payment with them,"no problem". I then write a note to the offending customer saying "sorry I keep missing you. I have spoken to Mrs Brown next door. and she says she will be happy for you to leave the payment with her.
Now if the offending customer doesn't pay, she will know that her neighbour knows she hasn't .
