No collecting for me
Its SAE or paypal

i've been out collecting, trouble is getting people to answer the door, they think it's bloody trick or treaters >:(,
ido the cheque thing as well but dont leave sae, they post at there cost.
i have gone back to collecting on quite a few though, quicker turn around,and with these difficult times is is wise to keep ontop of things instead of waiting for cheque for multiple cleans to arrive.

I forgot it was Halloween today ::) A lot of people did not come to the door >:( One said to me that I can take off the mask, and I was not wearing one.
Oh well collecting tomorrow ::) ;D

I dont mind collecting but i dont go very often as i have trained my custys so that they either send me a cheque or let it build up until they see me. I wouldnt have bothered tonight as it is halloween. I went monday and in just over an hour collected £280 in cash and there is supposed to be a credit crunch.

never had any problems with none payment, the odd customer has left it to 3rd clean, but most are fine.

We never have any trouble with trick or treaters knocking on our door. I've got an old pair of wellies that I painted silver and every year I leave them by the front door.
The little bu66ers won't knock if they think Gary Glitter lives there.

i do not normally have to collect but was just imagining what might happen

With my outfit they'd think it was "penny for the guy!" ;D

Don't do collecting,seems a bit desperate to me,just leave a slip with online bank details/home address for cheques etc.
Far better things to be doing in the evening than driving about looking for money ;D.........SOD THAT!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Why is going to collect money that is owed for the service you provide desperate.
-
Me personally is because of the time and petrol wasted driving about and loss of time with your family,I personally don't like to be disturbed when eating my dinner etc.I never have to wait more than two days for my payment unless they are on holidays and even then they say that they are very sorry for late payment but can understand that,mickey takers I have no time for,my customers always pay like I say within a few days,surely you can wait that long! ;D.....each and everyone to their own but I would rather be with my family in the evening than wait a few days for payment :P

it is not desperate at all, I used to do it long time ago, I found it was wasting my time, I worked to many hours as it was , thewn had to drive over 20 miles to collect, and a lot would not be in, all now ost payment or pay online, less hassle, less time wasted.
I know loads of guys round my way that still collect I think they are mad but we all work different, so I say each to there own.
I work in a way that does not cost me time and money, others will work because they need the money in quick (its not wrong , just costs them more)
