You were not paid for the services you provided?

no sir was told a payment was mailed about six weeks ago. I followed up 2 weeks ago and asked why he stated payment was mailed. He stated his mother was in the Hospital. Not my first rodeo and assume he is stiffing me. Jug Head. I would have no problem with a postponed payment and certainly would have empathy regarding an ill parent but he lied so it appears to be BS at this point almost 2 months.

The payment was sent USPS mail 1 week after your friendly reminder. All you had to do was call or mail me about it. Your airing it out here is not the way to go about it. I hope you feel better about it. A new check will be sent out Thursday AM at 9 . Jug Head was one of my favorite cartoon characters, Thanks. Try caring for a relative with Louie Body Dementia for a while , then you can make all the insults you want. Sorry , you were told you would get paid for your services and i meant it.

Kerry , the car is up for sale because my Mom has been put on a waiting list for a nursing home. Because of her problems she has to go into Memory Care. When she gets accepted i have to give them $ 108,000. All is not as some people think when they see things on E Bay. A couple of extra thousand dollars from the car might give me a couple of extra months before i have to sell her house.. That is next.

Yes it is unfortunate to air this on a public forum. It has been proven in the past on other forums to be necessary at times and proof again it works. Thank you and will let you know when it arrives.

This is only a general statement and not directed at anyone specific.

As my mom would always tell me in my early adult life when it came to dealing with banks or others I owed money to, "Communication, communication, communication!". I live by that today. I recently had a situation here where I found someone a car and did all that was asked and never received payment. It was not until my threat of going on line and publically posting it (there was an associated thread going on) that I finally got a response. As it turned out it was all a simple misunderstanding and all was well but and if I had only had the communication it never would have led to that. I am a very trusting guy and almost everyone I deal with on this board that I do things for, I perform the service or ship the parts and then wait for payment. I have only been screwed one time and thanks to the board that person is no longer allowed here. Stay in touch with people and communicate when there are issues and things will normally work out for both parties.

Communication, but not on a public forum please. Take it private and work it out before the bad blood gets out of control.

Not in this threads case but sometimes people are doing everyone a service by bringing it public and it can be done diplomatically. Number 1, it can bring resolve and number 2 if it doesn't, it will warn others who might have made the same mistake with that same person. I have saved myself several times due to what someone has posted. It is no different than publically posting issues regarding a car.

There are two sides to every discussion, and the truth is somewhere in between. I admit my fault of not following up on the payment for the time Kerry spent helping me . But this forum is not the place or manner to get what he thinks is revenge. I am sorry a lapse of my memory has turned into this . Sadly you only cared about the money and not the bigger issue of the problems that delayed your payment..Check sent with tracking this time.
