Right then, notice is given. I didn't sign the opt-out, though I may have signed one in the past, so I might approach client co about going through another agency of my choosing rather than simply tulipting on them as it's not really their fault.

Originally posted by Amiga500 View PostI managed to get paid in a similar situation about 8 years ago. So probably worth chasing.

Originally posted by doodab View PostWell, they may still pay, but I'm still going to bin it. Not worth the hassle chasing them and it looks like it's only a matter of time before they go under so I'd rather be out before that happens.

Originally posted by Amiga500 View PostMaybe in the past but my own recent personal experience would show this to no longer be the case. I was also advised by a barrister and recorder (a part time judge) that emails hold as much weight as a letter. I don't buy the whole not receiving part, obviously you ask for a reply in 14 days which shows they received the email.
Incidentally I have just spent 5 days chasing a special delivery parcel that went missing with no signature so if you think mail is bullet proof you should think again.
E-mail is a form of documentary evidence and can be admitted as evidence in court in the same way as can other forms of documentary evidence. However, as with other forms of evidence, the reliability of e-mail evidence will be subject to scrutiny. This can be a particular issue in the context of e-mail or other electronic evidence, since measures which may protect the integrity and/or authenticity of electronic evidence (such as the use of digital signatures or other forms of encryption) are not always used. As a result, the reliability of e-mail as evidence may be subject to attack.
My last experience with emails as evidence was last year. The opposition’s solicitor was a compulsive liar and denied receiving emails. The judge had to accept her version because solicitors are classed as ‘officers of the court’ It was plain that she lied in court. Cases often end up like Alice in Wonderland with no logic whatsoever and with contradictions of previous judges.

Originally posted by Safe Collections View PostFor a small business contract with Experian or someone similar you would expect to pay around £300-400 per year, but for most contractors we imagine this would be massive overkill as you are unlikely to conduct enough reports for it to be cost effective.
For one off reports we would recommend the Experian Business Check service. Full report including payment data, CCJ records etc is £17.99.
They do, but personally we wouldn't use that provider...
