Companies Taking money
What's the crack with companies taking your money in FULL on incomplete orders (i.e back order or manufacture time)
Should they really be able to do this?
Just a bit disgruntled as it's allot of doh!

We work on 30% when order placed, 30% when its ready for dispatch, 40% when its installed commissioned and you sign it off as such.
We do alter this too suit customers requirement if required but as a rule that's how we work.

depending on the customer and cost of project I work on 25% upfront and remaining 75% on completion. Some (known customers) 100% on completion.
I'm on about mail order stuff, i.e parts, seats, lights, bits and bobs.

Dolphin (part of moben) quoted to do our bathroom and said payment was on completion. Mind you, the pre-discount quote for our 2m x 2.5m bathroom was
over £20,000
