Overdue invoices and uncooperative agencies

[eek]

Got a response from the agency. One word.

Paid

Checked my account. Full amount for original invoice (including those 2 days) is banked, minus the late payment fees (which I didn't care about).

Thank you all VERY MUCH!

I think that is one agency you will never work through again.

Plenty of pimps covering the market. I knew the second I started pursuing this I was probably blacklisted with the agency. Just glad that I got my money.

"Go hard or go home", y'know?

Well done, agencies need to be brought down a peg or 2...

Good result. Yeah, you may have burned your bridges with that agent but there are plenty more so sod them. You got paid which is the main thing.

ESPECIALLY the ones that are mis-representing clients through embellished JDs and putting out ghost contracts on Jobswerve-etc

God this industry would be so much better if people weren't playing so many stupid little games.

Sounds like he wouldn't want to anyway.

Result !

Great news, congrats. Just shows that the guff spouted here by the apologistas for the slimeballs in the house aren't always correct in their knee-jerk responses about what is owed under contracts, eh ?

Well done,

Boo

Problem is that you can count the good ones on one hand (even if you had 2 of your digits missing!). There are so many wide boys and failed bookies/estate-agents/car-salesmen in the recruitment industry that it makes job hunting much harder than it needs to be.

I had a request from via LinkedIn from a recruitment agent just so he could hassle me to see if there were any roles going at my current ClientCo he could fill, looked at his profile and he had been a pimp for about 5 minutes (previous role was working as a bailiff! ), now why in the world would he expect me to do his job for him, if there we're any roles going I would put them onto <plug>Contractor Club</plug>!!
