Well it got paid last month after.
Found out that the clients process has changed and this one particular guy now has to sign off. In the past he's the one who's been supposed to sort out extensions but never does until the last minute. Before someone else must have signed off because there was never a problem but not pleased to hear its him now.
He signs off on some of the permies expenses and they wait months which winds them up! Hes well known within the client for being slow at sorting things out.
But agency phoned me this am to ask me to put pressure on the guy to sort it out this month. Its only the 8th today so only 7 days since invoice and they want me to start hassling this fella...
Sorry fellas - do it yourself? Im not going to arsey with the client after 7 days just so you can get paid.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

They will probably still sit on your payment even if you do mention itGlad it all got sorted in the end
To be honest, its a little annoying that client takes a while to sign timesheet, but I've had it so good that I'm not going to kick off at client after a week. Pretty sure payment terms with agency are 30 days and, in the past, I've usually got paid after 1-2 weeks.
Interested to see what happens if we go past 30 days and agency still won't pay me because client hasn't signed. After all, I don't have a SIGNED timesheet yet so I'm assuming I can't play hardball with agency?
Agreed this is a strange way to do things but in the past its worked well. I guess agency not happy with this new guys attitude to signing timesheets!Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment
