DH runs a small IT business and has a problem with a new client who is refusing to pay an invoice.
The client calls up DH and needs urgent help on his IT systems. DH explains what is needed on the phone, makes sure client understands costs involved and then drops everything to help this client. Nothing in writing as it was so urgent.
DH invoiced client back in Oct and been chasing payment ever since. Client now saying costs were never agreed and he's not going to pay the invoice and if DH wants to get lawyers involved then "go ahead".
What can DH do? He has set it all out in an email to the client and explained everything on the invoice (and cost is very reasomnable by the way, DH prob only just covered his costs, not a big margin) but client refuses to respond. Client is obviously hoping DH thinks is too much hassle to chase him.
Makes me so angry! Is so dishonest. What can we do?
