I run a small business, we recently did work for a customer and we charged
her £95 for a mornings work, no prior price was asked for or was given. The
customer has refused to pay the invoice and has sent a cheque for £55.00
without any explanation. I have phoned her and she says she feels that?s all
the work is worth. How should I proceed, return the cheque or bank it then
pursue the difference?

Comments please.


Surprised she didn't ask before as I would have asked for a rough
idea.Did you not consider suggesting how much the work would be?

What work was involved?
