Well, as you accused me of being the ‘grammar police’ for making one single isolated comment, I thought I had offended your sensibilities.

 

Pretty much everything I post on this forum is flippant.

 

It’s got me into a fair bit of grief in the past, I can assure you!

Takes a lot more than that to offend me I can assure you.

Long time ago customer refused to pay me, I sprinkle entire property with kerb granules , he still have no garden after 15 years, shit people must be treated like shit. I still have 40 kilo left and will use it with no hesitation if I meet another scumbag on my way, also they have cars ,windows, houses ,sheds and so on very easy to get paid if needed.

Thought about doing domething like this myself once, but decided it could be construed as criminal damage. The much more discreet but satisfying alternative was a goodly dose of 34% urea nitrogen fertiliser at night, then spent next six months watching the poor prick furiously mowing his lawns,  growing twice as fast as he could cut. Must have cost a fortune in fuel.😆

Or a good sprinkling of Japanese knotweed seeds

Knotweed is actually pretty good idea,but to be honest for last 10 years I never had problems with customers or I learnt to avoid buggers!

It doesn't get you paid. God knows what prosecution you're opening yourself up to. You imperil innocent neighbours. It doesn't get you paid.

What happened to the original thread started by this guy? This is a duplicate.

 

Having not agreed any payment terms prior to completion, he has zero grounds to ask for it or seek anything until the agreed work is completed.

 

To those advising "compensation by revenge", you'd quite literally be inviting the client to sure for criminal damage. You'd be completely in the wrong.

 

I'm not disputing the fact that the client may be a cock, but the OP has put himself in his situation with poor planning and terms.
