Yeah I know, it's just that I can't believe a Radio station like K95 would let someone slide for over 8 G's worth of cost...
That's why all the good radio stations are gone; they were too trusting with their clients.

If that nice letter doesn't work you can always try "Pay up you cheap son-of-a-bitch or I'll have your fu*kin legs broke! Strong letter to follow." eek!

thank you, OGShocker (& topless, teeheehee) My pleasure!
I have to collect funds quite often. I find the bast way is to go to the customer direct. If this doesn't work a collection company (not D&B) is the next step. I use Newton and Associates (http://www.newton-associates.com/home.htm) , these folks are pretty nasty and get results! These groups can take 25% to 50% of the money owed for their services.
The next step is to hire a Private Investigator in the local area. These MoFo's get results! I had one guy that followed a customer on his morning route, kids school, coffee shop, news stand and then the office. Every stop, he ask when we were going to get the money he owed us, in rather loud voice. On the second morning the guy handed the PI a check. This method is time consuming for you. It is a little cheaper but, the time you spend looking for the right PI can be a pain.
The last step is a power drill to both elbows but, we should not talk about that here. wink
Good luck,
OGS
