To be a bit annoyed about not being reimbursed quickly?

I’ve paid upfront for a trip with friends. I paid on Thursday last week so only 4 days ago. Everyone but one has paid me. It’s not a huge amount, around £60. I’m on holiday now and would like to tick it off my to do list. I reminded her yesterday just so I could relax and not have to think about it. She laughed and said she would pay it yesterday but she hasn’t. I actually feel extremely irritated as she did the same thing last time then cancelled leaving me to find someone else. She’s the wealthiest out of all my friends so really the money isn’t an issue. I’m not hard up so it feels embarrassing chasing her. Urghhhhh just pay up so I don’t have to think about it! 😡

AIBU?

It’s actually accommodation and the annoying thing is if she wasn’t going we could have gone for cheaper smaller accommodation. There’s no one else we can ask as it’s quite a niche thing.

Spell it out for her.

Please make payment by X time on X day otherwise I will have to assume you no longer want to go and I will sell the ticket to someone else.

It’s just so annoying when I should be relaxing in the sun! I’m now fixating on it and feeling really irritated that it’s affecting my holiday. 😤

Send a reminder - with a deadline.

I HATE people who do this - it’s so rude.

It doesn't matter how much it is she should have paid you straight away, especially after you reminded her, very rude. Don't book stuff for her again

She’s an amazing, lovely, thoughtful person in every other way so it’s weird. I don’t get it.
