Go cardless best thing I've ever done!

I charge them each time individually and put the price in when taking the payment
So when someone registers when you have donentered the windows u go on and just type in as you do.what about the frequency thing it asks you??

Yes , I'm not sure about the frequency , I haven't made a plan just payment because I'm never sure what date I'll be round etc with the weather

 
Finally got the 0.1p to get authorised and paid.

Definitely think there was a glitch in their system over Xmas weekend or site maintenance or something.

Anyway - all set for the New Year in taking payments so I'm well happy:thumbsup:

 
im only using it for new cutomers and i have 50 late payers that im going to get to go on it if they dont there getting binned.
I don't really see any needs mucking about with the reliable ones who always pay me on time but like everyone else we all got the unreliable ones we have to keep reminding for payment so it is worth getting that lot on gocardless, if they say no then I shall find new some more customers.

Makes me sick not kidding you but I've been thinking about this payment method's and debts allover Xmas not slept reet because of it 2017 things are going to change I want to feel the value of my round it's not on how they act I could do time for them sometimes :mad:

 
Cash flow can be the most infuriating part of the job.

I do a lot of ad on work for cash as it's needed to keep the business going at times waiting for window payments.

It's hectic like lol, I usually don't mind money lieing out as I see it as money in the bank but it's **** when you need it and you don't have it

 
i have a newbie , 3 months now £8.50, paid on time oct / nov , cleaned on 21 dec, text twice for payment , got no answer., if i had him on GC i ould have took it out myself. these are the types i will want to put onto GC paying system

I don't need it i do alot of other bits and bats,but it's the fact there taking the **** is what gets to me...

 
wHEN ASKING THEM TO FILL THERE DETAILS ON MY PHONE WHAT EXACTLY DO THEY PUT IN, 16 DIGIT NUMBER, AND THE 3 ON THE BACK.

is that it, i dont think anyone would like to give you them personally.

When the payment goes into your account do you put there address or id on so it shows on your payment who its from.

 
Isn't there an app for this like I can put a paypal app on my phone? Couldn't see a GoCardless app.
I've just signed up for this and izettle too.

Put a note on FB business page re the safety measures this and izettle have in place to prevent fraud. Will start ball rolling in the new year.
I managed to download GoCardless' app "Payyr" but concerned that they didn't take 1% - looks like it could be similar to Friends/Family option on PayPal but can't find any other app from Go Cardless?

Any one else used Payyr??

 
Never used payyr app.

Used pingit which I've found is very good, you can request payments and no need to take any customers banking details.

Just need their mobile number - bounces back a text once they've paid.
