Originally posted by Troll<snigger> tell me then what you would consider a 'major' breach?
They consider late payment as a minor breach. Of course the company still owe you the money. Of course you can claim interest, but you most certainly cannot use one incidence of late payment to void the contract, which is the point I was making.

Think of it this way, if you had a mortgage (i.e. providing services in exchange for cash) and the customer did not pay the monthly repayment would you think it okay for the bank to repossess the next day. After all it is a breach of contract!!! No didn't think so, but if the customer continually made no attempt to pay at some point it would be acceptable.Comment

Worked wonders!!Serving religion with the contempt it deserves...Comment
