Sally, Software Developer.

1 June 2024•By Alastair Campbell, Founder•Your Stories

I’m a dev for a mid-size software company. I invoice £8k a month for 15 days of dev. My terms are 30 days. So far they are behind three invoices. £24k! 

Luckily my husband earns a PAYE wage, so I can wait, but nothing seems to make any difference – it’s always ‘just coming’ or ‘we’re catching up this week’. I know the CEO makes all the bank payments himself so unless he is blissfully unaware of how much he owes then he is the blocker. 

Eventually, when I begin to get frustrated and a bit cross (which I hate) then one, maybe two, past invoices will be paid. I cannot wait for them to realise I am sharing this info with you for all to see – hopefully, this will put a rocket up them.

Still waiting to be paid?

A reminder from you is easy to ignore. PaymentCheck sends a formal late payment notice on your behalf — from a third party that publicly tracks the payment behaviour of 9,600+ UK companies. Free, and it takes 60 seconds.
