My company worked via Glotel between August 2003 and November 2003 and even though we have invoiced them on several occasions and know that they have received them they deny any reciept. They are also difficult in paying the other contractors on site. This is just a warning.

Re: true enough
It gets worse as they are now refusing to pay because we have not given them the correct paper work.
So first was that said they had not received the invoices and now they are saying we cannot pay you because the paper work is incorrect.Comment

I have friends in Germany who also have had many problems with Glotel, it appears that they are not interested in paying the contractors really and as I understand it they chase the client and the contractor is ignored.Comment
