Clients have been cribbing about Consulting companies in forums, etc. But alas Drupal.org does not have a Client Alert section where Developer or Shop can put details of non-paying client. We had a classic case of a Travel Industry client who did not pay $52K to a Thailand based company and then owed us $104K. And we do have audio files and series of emails as evidence.<br>
<br>Best is take advance prior to starting work and deliver 100% of code only on receiving 100% payment.<br><br>Roshan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 25, 2009 at 8:31 PM, Sami Khan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sami@etopian.net" target="_blank">sami@etopian.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Obviously, it's over... However, it may mean the difference between getting<br>
paid and not... I don't know about you, but I prefer to get paid for the<br>
work I did, especially if it's over... As do a lot of wives. ;)<br>
