Client not paying......
Discussion
What is the shortist notice I can request payment for before going to small claims?
I thought 14, but would like it to be 7.
She asked to raise 'issues' with my invoice over 5 weeks ago, but I have had nothing. So want to push her buttons.
It is for £5k so not really one to walk away from.
Thanks,

Usually we ask for payment up front, this one slipped the net with time pressures and I am regretting it now.
She claimed hospitalisation 5 weeks ago, but with 3 young sons and having left her husband I cant see it tbh. Either way 5 weeks is more than enough to 'raise points' against our invoice.

Yes she does, she has rental properties with little or no mortgage on them.
And I checked with the builder and he has said he is all paid up to date (although why has he left a skip on the drive)
At least we can nip round and remove the aerial system without needing access to the house, if it comes to that.

Her past communication with me said she would send an email addressing my 'proposed invoice'
And to stop relentlessly calling a texting her!! (3 texts over 2 weeks and 1 call a day for four days after she didn't respond to the texts)
So not willing to talk to her, need to formalise the start of chasing this.

Sent her an email this morning giving 7 days, put read receipt and delivery receipt on it.
Nothing back, not even a delivery receipt, so I guess it is straight to a solicitors letter!
I have texted her, requesting she lets me know her new details but I doubt very much that she will reply.
Will have to wait and see.

WHole house Tv and data network, £1000 pre install speaker and associated cabling, network cabinet and Tv distribution oh and a Tv & satellite do have rig!
Worth about £5.5k offer her £4K to get a deal and some money.
Giving her 7 days from today's email
Then solicitors letter, 7 days
Then Small Claims Court (with a copy sent to her to prove its serious)
Had a boss that used to do that with faxes, copy of form all filled out ready to send in sent to debtor, it got amazing results.

I know I legally can not remove kit that would damage or leave the property in a detrimental state. The law is quite clear about that.
But removing a dish or even just disconnecting it wouldn't do any damage, we wouldn't take the bracket just the dish or lnb / Tv aerial.
Anyway, next week it is a solicitors letter.
