How to Handle Clients that Refuse to pay?

[Ralphjoe]

The truth is there is no measure the writer can take to get paid from the person he sent the job to. So far it's freelancing and remote job you just have to be careful with those giving you writing gig to do. Better still register or create an account with freelancing website, they serve as third party between freelancer and those giving out jobs. With this it will be easy to get your money after getting the job done

This is also my thought I don't think that using an individual as a third party in a business is good but making use of a trusted platform like fivverr and up work would really guarantee a smooth freelancing job and delivery.

To avoid such situations is the reason why many business owners tend to follow the no credit policy, so you won't even tink of coming for credit in the first place. I think in such situation, if the person refuses to pay, its best to take legal action

When you are doing an online business you really need to pass through the normal process of payment and delivery of services in a site like fiverr to avoid being scammed by dubious client.you will not have anything to do than for you to report the person.

This is one of the reason why I do not like giving out loans to people. When clients default in their payments, you can get such clients arrested. In a situation where there is an agreement signed by an attorney, you can charge the clients to court.

You didn't tell us if the contract between this person and his clients took place from an online freelancing platforms or just on a personal level. He should have reported this urgly trend to the customer service

You are very right. To avoid situations where a client will refuse to pay, it is better not to sell your goods and services on credits. If you must sell on credits, make sure that it is something that you can let go and won't affect the business capital.

Exactly, like i went to a store one day, and i saw a printed flyer pasted boldly on the wall that clearly says no credit allowed here. In that case now i dont anyone can just come there and decide to buy on credit, as the sign is there for all to seep

Before using a collection agency, I would consult with a collections lawyer. A lawyer can design a demand letter that may terrify your delinquent customer into paying without resorting to the excessive percentages charged by collections agencies.

In the news the other night was a Chinese guy who checked in to a small hotel. When he was getting out, he did not pay the hotel. The manager called the cops. The Chinese escaped on his BMW car and the chase by the cops ended in Manila after more than 8 kilometers. That is a neat lesson for those who do not want to pay.

Things gets ugly and frustrating, when you don't receive payment after a service. I was told of a writer who finished his work beautifully and delivered it to the client on time, but what did this writer get in return? No pay. He kept on disturbing the client for donkey years to no avail. Hence, if you were that writer how would you get your payment?

This thing I just exactly like working your ass off online for many months and you reach the minimum payout threshold and the admin of the site decided not to pay you for your services,

They should find a way to arrest the criminal by the person's car identity number, it is not the best thing for me to avoid payment after using of services or when you have collected a product, it's a crime

Recently, I am facing this issue with a client. I have delivered the product, the client acknowledges that he received the product, yet he is not paying. This is creating a problem

This can be really annoying. Why dont you change your policy or would it affect the business you are into? They should pay before service is delivered. Or maybe a system whereby they pay a part payment then after the goods has been delivered they pay the other half

 

[Kane]

Sometimes when you are working with a new client and when the client is offering a good price, it is not possible to ask for advance payment. You will have to just agree to clients' term

 

[Chibson]

It's very bad that after someone has rendered a service online the person he did it for we refuse to pay him for his services and time.

 

[Kelly5]

You should only undertake to do jobs for clients you personally have established a proper business relationship with. But for those you've not known, maybe you should make it a part payment before device kind of arrangement

Despite the the boldly written clause pasted on the wall, there might still be some exception to regular customers who had for years maintains good relationship with the business.

Very true, there are till one or two persons the business owner would sell credit for, because they are very sure of getting their money back no matter what. Like where my mom usually buys provisions from. There are times we dont pay instantly, maybe because of network to transfer the funds or something, the shop owner does not disturb or complain, cause she knows we always pay and we have never kept her money.

The best way to handle clients that refused to pay is to take measures and follow them gently this is the only way you can undo them because you cannot take your client to police station.

You understood how it works. Business clause are for customers who are new to the business, customers that are not regular or customers that cannot be trusted with the business money.
