    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    I’m owed just shy of 3 grand. Nearly 2 on extras.

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    Believe me that’s the immediate action you want to take but it’s a lot of money and I want the money paid. Anything like that and you’ve no chance seeing any money. Spoke to other local electricians and they agreed. I was up at the door twice the first day he refused, wasn’t home both times...

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    There is two senior planning officers which he signed the email off with. No names just their official title which seemed a bit off coming from Belfast city building control and not signing their names on an official email. Both emailed back stating I am correct and there is no regulations...

    Update. Sent though all invoices.Sent him JIB approved gold card, ECS registration. Regulations that are to be met in Northern Ireland etc. Final demand with payment due this week. He emailed me a copy of an email from the local council building control stating electricians have to be registered...

    Thanks. If he was thinking the same at no stage did he ask till he had to make a final payment and the house was basically complete. Which seems to me like a stitch up. I would also assume if you had genuine concerns you would speak to the contractor instead of just radio silence and refusing to pay

    Strangely not at all. Obviously if something goes wrong would have to prove competency. We have a huge issue with the bathrooms and kitchen companies doing their own work.

    Completely understand where you are coming from but as has been mentioned here in NI there is no such registrations needed. If there was I would be registered before trading. Also at no time was anything asked, even if the customer was confused and assumed this as well.

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    Really appreciate all the help. As it stands he is off the opinion I’m not qualified. I don’t think genuinely but simply to get out of paying. Should i send him proof of my qualifications and the fact I was in process of providing a certificate again as I’ve never actually sent him the proof as...

    I’ve done basically that and his response was will wait to see what the outside electrical contractor says. Should I just leave it at that though he’s admitted he doesn’t know when the electrician will get out to “sign off”. He’s no intention of paying the extras

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    The difficulty is there was no dialogue. Been happy all along. Asked to pay on Friday and said about he needs a cert by a qualified electrician? I told him I am in the process and we’ll qualified and he’s just said do not attend site and wants me to pay for a test. If he had have raised any...

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    Was labour only. Hes paid 80 percent of quoted price, minus what the EIC will cost and refusing to pay for the extras which we’re verbally agreed and obvious from drawings etc that have changed. Not long out by myself I’ve learnt a valuable lesson in paperwork tbh. Have all emails and texts...

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    I have texts telling him I would be testing on Friday and then his arguement over the weekend was I am unable or won’t provide a certificate. I said he won’t be getting it till I’m paid but didn’t even get a chance to finish testing

    How do you send a link for this please.Not quite sure how I get an authorisation code?

    I have not been paid, what shall I do

    I think he is well aware I’m a spark and it’s the NIC register he is checking after having no mention of it before Friday when he was meant to pay me. Not sure he is interested and it’s his plan that I just give up as im not on the list he’s looked up. The blanks issue could come up when the...
