Custmer Paid Me, Been Waiting Long Time,


I joined that BCR and filed a report and they sent a letter to them and few days later the customer ask me if they paid if i would change there rateing. I said sure pay me the amount you owe me. And they paid the amount they owed cannot beleave they paid this custmer i have been dealing with just would not pay the rest of the money they owed me, but i will tell you when you give a rateing of one star and all othere contractors can see it it works. got my balance of $2300.00 thanks to thebetterreport.com.

Re: Custmer Paid Me, Been Waiting Long Time,


I have a couple of good cudtomers give all their work , Both are Realtors , They call me and i'm right out there , So i send them the bill via the mail and wait for payment 1 week 2 weeks so i give them a call to see if they got my invoice yop its right here ,another few days go by keep checking the mail box no check , so i go by their office to see if my check is their and sure enough its there, they said we make out the checks the day we get the invoice and sure enough i look at the date on the check its dated 2 weeks ago ,this has happen to me 3 times, now i drive into town with invoice in hand and they right me check on the spot and hand it to me who knows why ? A stamp to me is still cheaper than a gallon of gas , I guess i'll just have to add into the bill
