    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    Where would I find that information? For some reason, people seem to be frightened to take this charity on - despite being owed 10's of thousands of pounds. They keep making threats about legal action and then the poor souls they're owe money to back off - yet not one person I've spoken to has...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    Thank you for that - it's good to know that we shouldn't pay in advance - so if an agency wants a set up fee, should we steer clear? Spoke to a solicitor who operates a no win no fee system - we'd have to pay the £70 costs to lodge it in court if it had to go to court. This whole situation is...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    We're no further forward. Now we've got two unpaid invoices (the outstanding one plus the next month's invoice) and we need to try and get some money together to go for debt recovery - every last penny was used feeding the animals - though the other rescue turned up on Monday with the police in...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    We just want to end the relationship with them altogether - but we do feel we have a duty of care to the animals with us - we have grave concerns over their welfare if they move them to other premises they use. I won't go into the gory details but ideally, we would like to rehome them as quickly...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    That's what we think too. Is it definite that part payment affirms that there is a contract in place? They'll pick me up with great enjoyment if I get anything wrong! The invoice details the name of each animal, the number of days and the amount. The only thing that we've never done is...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    I must be really thick because I'm just not catching on what we need to do - plus I'm probably not explaining it very well. They're not disputing the amount on the invoice - just how it was presented. Because part of the backdated charges encompassed a period before we became a non-profit...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    Thank you. The 30 days would be past anyway - the invoice was dated 9th August. They now want the invoice amended (to buy another 30 days we think) but they have made a part payment - have they accepted the content of the original invoice by making that part payment? And is the interest...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    The final demand was a copy of the invoice with Final Demand on it - and the amendments, plus the part payment that they had made. Out of curiosity, they are disputing part of the invoice as the backdated payments that they insisted on us including actually span a period before we became a...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    This is turning into a bit of a saga. We issued a final demand to them, with interest charges and the compensation fee. There was an amendment to the invoice in their favour. We issued evidence of why there was an amendment. I did the final demand with the same Invoice Number and Invoice...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    There's a chance that they're not paying it just purely out of nastiness but our gut feeling is that they just don't have the money. We've discovered that this is a common occurrence with them - they run up bills then remove their animals and leave a trail of debt behind them.

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    I'll check out the small claims procedure, thank you. There has never been any written contract or agreement - they refused (we now think because it means they'd be bound by it) The animals were with us and we rehomed on behalf of the larger rescue and, by their instruction, the donation...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    Thank you for your reply. We will advise them they have 7 days to pay - another question though - when calculating the interest, is it up to the day you issue the final demand? Sadly, I'm not sure what we can do about the 8 animals they removed - but we still have another 18 and we need to...

    Chasing an unpaid invoice

    Just joined and hope that someone can give us some advice please. I'm the secretary for a small animal rescue. The rescue have boarded and cared for a number of animals from a larger rescue for a year now. It was always very informal - the large rescue didn't enter into any paperwork and they...
