    Are you sure you are not on 1 week payment terms and that you are on 1 month payment terms?

      If timesheet is with the agent by 0900 Tuesday, payment goes in on Friday.

      If later than 0900 Tuesday, Friday the following week.

      This is with Aston Carter or Allegis or Tek or whatever they are calling themselves this week.

                Never had any delay, always been paid on time.

                  I think all mine were like that. Only issue I had was at the start of the contract and they didn't pay because the client hadn't returned the contract yet - like that's my problem.

                    0 days.

                    Apart from one invoice which didn't make it through the scanning process for some reason, which was paid within two days of me highlighting the late payment.
