    This time hes not getting anything out of it. His customer has insisted something is done as part of the overall contract price.

    Is that because you ate him and then his cheque bounced?

    I will charge the normal rate. I had my girlfriends family member ask me for help over Xmas with VBA. They are a permie who will be putting it through their company. Personally, I didn't want to do the work however I told them I would after some pressure.

    When I quoted them my daily rate they didn't question it and agreed to pay. At the end of the day, I am a business and I need to make as much money as possible. They only people saving money would be his company, it wasn't like he was needing it for his family.

    I'm not at all surprised that various people have accused you of being created and run by the same idiot that posts as Suity, both ID's post to the same style. Maybe you should post these vacuous brainfart ramblings on your Faceache or Twatter pages rather than on CUK, after all that's what those sites are for.
    I love Suity

    To Psychoclown, engage your brain, charge a sensible amount, it's not exactly a difficult one to work out.
