Guys please don’t take this as a personal attack but it's time to relax a bit.  I agree that some people need to exercise better judgment when it comes to their payment policies but it is THEIR payment policy and its how they choose to run THEIR business.  There are too many people that don't post about non-payers because they are immediately jumped on and criticized for doing so.  What if an abstractor from MI or ME wanted to post about a non-payer but didn't and that same company stiffed you? 

Your negative remarks and criticism aren’t helping anyone; they may be a detriment to this site and to the many abstractors that use it.  While I may not agree when someone lets a client go 4 months without payment that doesn't mean I don't appreciate them letting me know when a client doesn't pay.  Let’s take the opportunity to help the abstractors that are having payment issues instead of criticizing them, no matter who’s at fault for the late or non-payment.

George your suggestion of cutting a company off is a practice I employ as well, but I attempt to collect in other ways before doing so.  I would rather help when the situation presents itself so if you, William or anyone else has questions about how I try to keep my receivables within a reasonable time frame please feel free to contact me. 

William because of your post I will never be stiffed by Kaimen. Thank you for taking the time to alert the rest of us.
