To be pissed off that clients haven't paid me and it's Christmas :(

[Simplecountrygirl]

As title. Just a rant really as I need to vent.

I'm self employed. Sent 3 invoices out last week, none of them have been paid (payment terms are 48 hours as these are regular customers that get invoiced fortnightly) Sent another 4 out yesterday (with the same terms) and I'm yet to receive a penny there either.

When it's just the odd one or two fine but that's 6 people that I have a feeling I won't be getting money from (some of them are regular late payers!) and that adds up to a lot I'm really struggling this month anyway and I could really do without the hassle I don't want to chase, I HATE having to chase and even if I do I don't know if I'll get paid but it pisses me off that people put my in this position in the first place.

Argh!!

It's been three weeks now and they are ignoring my messages

When I was self employed a client refused to pay for some work I had done. My response was that the coming saturday I would be coming around to knock on his neighbours doors and tell them that my client was not a man of honour and was refusing to pay his debts.
Cheque in the post next morning.
