Confucius say,
"Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves".

And that doesn't mean kill the husband, as well.

ive got a £40 debt(2 cleans)and i had a bad feeling a few months ago.2 invoices left,no payment.shes a really gorgeous looking woman,2 mercs on the drive.pain the a***!!

next door neighbour is a good solid customer so ill keep knocking when i clean this one until i get paid then dump.

i wrote off a £25 debt(1 clean) a few weeks ago as he s an arrogant idiot,never had any money,wouldnt pay online or send cheque if out etc.he even accused me of not cleaning some of the windows when i know full well i did.

i dont need customers like this.luckily they are very rare on my round.

dump and move on!!

i would never resort to slivers of bamboo in locks etc.its just unprofessional and could tarnish your good reputation(if you have one!).


best wishes to you all

If I were you I would take a step back, and concentrate on other things.  You live and learn, so move on.

i will say it AGAIN,one clean...one payment
why do people let it to 3/4 cleans is beyond me
keep it simple

i have on my calling card, ' Unpaid cleans can only be to a maximum of 2 cleans, unless prearanged'

(some people work away and still have windows cleaned but this incourages them to pay upfront.)

i also have on my card 'it is under managers discrestion if a debt is allowed to double up' 
(polite way to say 'no messing') 

some have just the one clean till payed some have the 2 cleans and miss a month.

i have a dense area of £4-£5 jobs and front only, some are fortnightly i can allow them to go to 3.

bad payers get demoted from 'regulars' to being an 'ask' being a recession some seem to appreciate it and keep having you now and again but must of been a little embarrist in the past to say not today i have no money.

i dont get it when a £25 job for example is allowed to go unpaid for so long, some like to show they are reliable.  but respet should be equal
