termination of contract for non payment

[stan2484]

Instead of all this "could it be..." and "my first is in Tree but not in Fish" kind of nonsense - either name them, or PM someone to see if it's the same agency.

The idea of naming and shaming is generally to inform others about your experiences. Playing a guessing game neither helps others, nor shames the agency in question.

Already have done in another post, but then I was warned about naming them, the name of the agency I had issue's with is Nine Direct, if you get contacted by them be warned!

Interesting example of how tight the agency market really is. 9% margin is actually less than most agencies claim to be the bottom line for the traditional contract if you are to cover cash flow, factoring, lost time and overheads properly. Not surprising that someone on low margins and who isn't on a PSL will delay everything as long as they can to gain a bit of interest.

Hi Prince, I am sure you have the misfortune of having the same bunch of clowns as I had on my last gig, not based out of Bristol are they by chance?!!.

I left them in Mid Aug and it took over 30 working days for them to finally pay me my last invoice, but that's not the end of it, as I was paid on remittance for July my brolly are still chasing this payment up and thats nearly 4 months on.

The bank excuse was first used to me in October last year so it is nothing but smoke and mirrors, I went to the end client too, but got another gig so left before I tried the direct route so I can't offer any advice on that sorry.

Good luck, PM me if you want any further information.

Yes, thats them. They could be shooting themsleves in the foot by not paying on time. They are getting a bad reputation with the end client and could be removed from the preferred suppliers list.
