I have started subbing to an interiors company. I already sub directly to a kitchen supplier whom I have worked with for over 15 years. The latter sell their kitchen to the customer and I contact said customer direct give them a quote to fit and the customer pays me direct.
The interiors company have preset fee's for installations depending on the size of the project and i am paid directly by them, send them my invoice and utr no.
I have completed five remedials for them over the course of 9 days at my Day Rate plus Fuel. Obviously I appreciate they are testing my skills, that's fine with me.
They have two pay dates in each month, mid and end of month. I put my invoices in the beginning of the month, yesterday I learnt that I will be paid at the end of this month, after I have completed another installation for them.
Now, I am very dubious about whether to carry out more work for them when my outstanding invoices haven't been settled and the mid month pay day seems to have been ignored.
Yesterday, I learnt that the interiors company gave my number to their customer to solve a query they had, their customer rang me direct. Then started sending loads of WhatsApp pictures, weekends are my time, that p*used me off.
So, shall I hold fire on more work until I've been paid?
