..........Why did no one ever tell me...................do not touch with a barge pole. They like to keep hold of their cash.....Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

I put up some details about a job on here a while ago asking if anyone had any experience with this facility management company. John the owner of Approved contacted the facility magaement company and tried to get the work.
I couldn't believe it, I tried contacting him through Gav cam but John never got back to me.

I will. I'll invoice the clients, they'll decline me. Then i'll bug them about their corporate responability so much that i'll be a royal pain in the arse and Approved WindowCleaning will be right on their radar. You could of course just pay me John, you'll have read this by now................

Mike the reason you didn't get paid is you can't get the sheets over on time why couldn't you scan the sheets back ??? If you need this clarifying feel free to give me a call .
The majority of john's clients have a 3 month cut off that means any invoice over 3 months old automatically gets put in the bin and results in him having to give the client a credit of the cost of the job
So not only have you cost your self money , you'll also cost Approved money but hey what you care with the attitude of il send my sheets over when I'm ready then moan when you haven't received any money !!

O dear o dear

As you have decided to respond in public would you please explain this bit in red for the benefit of the forum? It doesn't make sense to me. When I was in charge of the finances of a company (both bought and sales ledgers) I had never heard of such a procedure.

Exactly. Thats ridiculous.

I would go further and question the legality of this procedure. If you've raised a VAT invoice I'm not sure you can just scrap it, surely this is now on debtors (or creditors, I always mix those up) list and therefore form part of your balance sheet.
-
I think you can still invoice up to 6 years after the event
-
Have you spoken to John in person about this?
I have to say I'm surprised - I've done 5 or 6 websites for John over the years & never had any issues getting paid... he was always a real gent...

Ah !!! Please accept my apologies. I didn't realise it was my fault because i was late sending stuff over. I feel silly now costing myself and others money with my slap dash attitude.

I also feel really daft now trying to give other people a heads up on what they are like to deal with, when the reality is thats its me all along. I take it all back, there's nothing wrong with Approved Window Cleaning. Its me.

Glad you got it sorted! ;D

Check the date Nat. Still no payment, and still no reply. Nothing is sorted, i havn't been paid.

My mistake. Did you talk to John on the phone? Phone usually gets much faster results than e-mail,....

Nat, i emailed every satisfaction sheet over bang on time. I've done everything i was asked to do. I ain't wasting my breath speaking to him. To say what ? ....Pay me please? Like he doesn't know ?
I'm just giving a heads up on what they're like to deal with.
-
yes just throw them in the bin & forget all about them. ::)roll ::)roll
-
I assume you didn't get anyone to cover you for the 2 jobs on the friday?
-
dump and move on once you get paid.not worth the hassle.its like you have to beg them for the money. >:(
-
Not the first time this happened with these guys by all accounts. Ask Mr Taberner.
Sounds ridiculous to throw a companies invoices in the bin regardless of the way you run your business. Surely if they're too late for one months payment run they go into the following months run? Or the bin ???
-
Ask Mr Taberner what exactly I think Mr Taberner is more than happy working for approved so seems someone as been leading you down a merry path as for mike cam's dispute re payment mike did we not revive your invoice dated 11 th may ??? Mike so how's that on time ?? We are on 60 days terms with most clients we invoice monthly your invoicing jam feb March and April in may not very professional nor acceptable really I've tried to ring you several times in respect of this as has john why don't you ring him ?? Instead of publicly slandering a very reputable guy and business??
-
I'm more than happy with Approved,
At the moment they are one of our main clients. We are doing literally £1000s a month for them. I don't normally discuss clients on here but in this case I will. Some weeks we have been doing almost 2k a week for them and it's a pleasure dealing with them, as it is with all of our clients.
I did mention on the dreaded Facebook about an issue I'm having at the moment with an ex client but this isn't Approved.
Dean.

Im only winding you up Mr T ;)

I'm slandering no one. FACT is i sent every satisfaction sheet over on time, not late at all. FACT is i asked about payment. FACT is i was ignored. FACT is i told him i wouldn't clean anymore till i was paid. FACT is i'm not paid. FACT is i was told i would be paid if i sent invoices. FACT is i sent them. . We'll see who can explain it better to a small claims hearing, as thats right where its headed. I'm not interested in chatting to anyone on a phone about anything, i'm past it, i just want paying. But i can sort that myself.
If i'm publicly slandering a reputable guy and business tell him to take me to task for it.
I'll unlock this and add to it when/if i get paid.............or when i get a judgement or pay court costs.
