Hi Tasman

As self employed, do you supply your services to a UK registered company or are you working through an agency? How long have you been supplying translation services through him, have you had any issues being paid before?

Apologies for so many questions, trying to get a better picture of things.

This is like fifth job for him, there is always an issue with pay, you have to call and ask for money after waiting a month to be paid I'm not with agency or anyone. After like 10th job i will do my tax part that's the plan.

I would continue to try and contact him or someone else at the company, either by telephone or by physically going to the office.

Have you got agreed payment terms?

It is not unusual for bills to be paid 30 days after submission.

your timesheet again with an invoice and any scanned expense receipts and a copy of
the original assignment details Philip sent you.
Timesheet and Invoice Procedures You must provide a clear scanned copy of your timesheet and send it to

not be accepted for payment if late than 14 days.
You must send one invoice with one timesheet with all related expenses for each
assignment in one email to xxxxx-bank.co.uk. Any timesheet, invoice
and expenses sent separately will not be accepted.

Provide full name & address, email and phone number in the right hand side of
your invoice. Fill in the correct amounts with correct agreed amounts, see
agreed amounts in the original assignment email.
3. Clear copies of receipts for travel cost, if we have agreed to pay your
expenses on the all inclusive rate, you will see it clearly stated on the original
assignment email we sent you, it would say! all inclusive "plus expenses".
4. Clear scanned copy of your timesheet. Must be correctly filled and signed by
you and client.
5. You must write in your email subject line! Date of assignment - Timesheet Invoice - Expenses. For example: October 22/10/13, timesheet - invoice Expenses.
