Think I am heading for a problem with a registered Charity, unbelievable really.

Signed Contract with simple cancellation clause, cancelled 7 days out with an email--we aren't having the function, no reason given or apology or offer to pay cancellation fee.

Third Customer this year who has taken this attitude. Wots going on?

We invoiced £200 immediately we are owed to get a reply the organiser was away for 7 days.

Phoned and left message please contact us. nothing.

Called the organiser at 9pm one evening as it revolves around a Youth Centre and caught out the offending rude person.

I'll get the treasurer to deal with it when I see them was the answer--hmmm that was 10 days ago.

I get the impression they hope we are going away--very bad move.

I have stayed pleasant and professional BUT I think that's going to end tomorrow.

I'm thinking Small Claims Court ---any suggestions apart from the more obvious ones of legal threats and reporting them to the Charities Commission?

These people appear to have a very bad attitude so before you ask--I'm going for it even if I don't get much back, course I could be wrong AND THE CHEQUE IS IN THE POST,

CRAZY K
