It has now been over 5 months that you have owed me $205 for work I have done for your websites.
The back story since we?re supposed to back these stories up (of course, I have the actual emails for admins if they want them):
Invoice sent for $410 back in early October for work I completed. Half of invoice paid almost immediately with the promise the rest would be sent along.
I tried periodically collecting and eventually read the post about the breakdown on GFY and decided to halt even trying to collect for a little while she got her affairs in order.
- 12/23/10 I sent an email with an offer of a deal to settle up the debt after I saw posts that suggested things were returning to normal.
- 12/23/10 She sent an email back saying we would talk after new year.
- 12/23/10 I responded that I understood and to have a great holiday.
- 2/1/10 I saw a post from her on GFY with something along the lines of TAB business is better than ever. I emailed saying I was glad to see that post and that I look forward to my getting payment.
- 2/1/10 She emails back asking for copy of invoice again to get it sorted. I replied with copy of original invoice in less than an hour.
- 2/3/10 I sent email about some domains I wanted to sell (I have since sold them on my own) and other things ? we sent a couple of emails back and forth and then they stopped coming from that end.
- 3/11/10 I sent an email demanding payment within 24 hours or I?d post on boards. No response.
- 3/15/10 I emailed her assistant and was told that she was out of town and may not have access to email or phone in response I received the following day.
- 3/20/10 I saw Lori posting on GFY saying that she would donate to ASM?s memorial fund because she appreciated all the help she received from the community during her breakdown.
- 3/20/10 Saw that post, knew she was obviously back in town or at least finally had email or phone access. I went ahead and sent another demand. Attached the invoice again and duplicated the payment instructions in the email body in case they were missed.
I have not heard back. I am still owed $205. I can put that money to very good use; not having health insurance along side with flaring Crohn?s Disease creates financial hardships. By April 1st I have to make the tough choice of buying my meds or keeping my power on.
I think I have been more patient than the majority would be, but enough is enough. Pay me.
Next up is small claims court since you have made no effort to repay or work out an arrangement. It costs me $35 to file and the court house is three miles from my house.
To the board: I hate having to air dirty laundry here but nothing else has worked and posting to boards seems to magically get old debts paid.
