Debt advice

[Jake Squirrell]

So on my road I do a fair few houses and about 6 months ago I started cleaning the house dead opposite me, charge them £7 and do it every 5 weeks. The first two times I got paid fine but since I have done the windows 3 times meaning a debt of £21. Iv knocked on the door when there in and they ignore the door, must of left 10+ slips reminding them of the debt. Have bumped into them 2 or 3 times and each time they say oh yeah we will do it tonight but they never do. Would you take it further?

 

[Dave B]

Definitely

Especially as they are opposite you and still think they can mug you off

Personally i would have lost the plot with them by now seeing their house every day would wind me up

 

[boarcity]

personally id just forget it, but then just before xmas shove a bamboo sliver into the front doorlock. that brings a finality to it

Small Claims Court - how to.

Copy the text used here Jake. I have always found it works well. I have been paid by two of them and today I will file a claim for the third one as she is a real P.I. Staker.

Good luck and welcome to the forum @Jake Squirrell

I just drop and move on now. It's only the odd one, I'd rather spend my time being productive than perusing twenty quid. If it was fifty though......

that would eat away at me.theres more to it here,not just the money.i have in the past left my van across a bad payers drive for non payment.(it works)leave it there and get your mrs to pick you up)this would be easy enough for you to do.it would be more the principle than the money-there taking you for a ride.or just leave it,i couldnt

Just leave it. In a few weeks time some dog poo wiped on the underside of their door handle will make u feel better

A quick squirt of super glue in door key hole works a treat or snap a similar key In their lock will cost them a lock smith at least

Or just use the law, pay the £25 to file a claim and get what you are OWED.

Sod all to do with how much is owed, you are a business man and they are taking you for a mug. Probably bragging to their friends about muppet window cleaner begging with hand out. It's principle I would file for £5.
