Posted a few threads about the troubles I have been having with getting paid by parents that I have taken on, I have been registered for 2 weeks and after yesterday I just want to quit...
The college paying for one parents fees has told the parent to move her youngest into a nursery as apparently they have deals with them where they don't have to hurry payments through, the college also told the parent they are going to ring ncma as they feel childminders should not be able to ask to be paid upfront.. What the actual fck??
This same parent owes me £118, I agreed she could pay me half on the 10th (yesterday) and half next monday... Shock horror she came yesterday to pick her children up and said oh I don't have the money to give you!
Then another parent (who is very well off) each week has fussed over payment, they were supposed to give me £48.75 on friday. The dad turned up and gave me £30 then yesterday the mum turns up and gives me £10 then tells me to add the rest onto the next bill!!!!
So I am left with no money yet shattered from being very accommodating (3 school runs to the same school every day) to help out 1 parent.
Aibu just to quit this???
