Thanks guys....Precise formwork and so you think just settle what i have already got and that's it. No, no contracts were signed i know i should have, but i did charge deposit before starting No live site until all money is paid. Everything was explained throughout the process. Contracts wouldn't stop them if they wanted to be like this in the process, they only act as evidence if you wanted to take it further and spend even more time. This guy has spent 300 pounds which he obviously doesn't care about let alone a contract. however last email received does act as evidence about promising to pay some of the money, not too sure if i can post on here though? Kind Regards

Hey guys, I have developed a website for my brother's client. However i am having issues receiving full payment from him. Initially, I charged a deposit of £300 which I received, but he owes £810. After many requested changes requested with each change the next one got bigger. At first, I thought that the client wasn't serious until later on in the process he seemed to appear more serious about it. I would speak to him on the phone and he said just make this change and then all done and always promised to pay. But on communicating via email it was a different story. Anyway. I started it in summer July, i wanted to get it finished and out of the way asap whilst he was in no rush at all. I would say, the site was finished in December with some major hiccups in life such as my mother being ill and events turned on it's head bad style. The client was aware as he knew my brother, thus calling himself the family friend and i liked your mother blah blah. mentioning no rush with the project as i know your mum is ill. After making the last few major changes over the phone which he seemed ok with and implied the site was all good and finished, I got a strange email which was the Last thing i received of him saying he wants to leave the site to concentrate on his exams and wants to pick the site up again in May. Talk about a U-turn and 2 statements that don't link together and not being straight. He offered to settle £255 now and the rest later on. That is the third time he promised payment but it didn't happen. Anyway the question is, I was thinking of submitting a claim online to receive the rest of my funds as I have put in so much time and effort in the site just to leave me short strawed. I don't think it fair i have to wait prolong the site pick up the same bad process and hold on to my funds. If i did pick it back up (i wouldn't make another change until he pays some more money) or shall I settle for what i have got (£300 deposit) and call it a day because he also hasn't got his site. Or am I totally right wanting to get the rest of my funds by taking action?! Please advise guys! Cheers, Ameen Jabbar
