Default CONTRACTORS-are you being paid?

I'm not! I've been contracting for DW for 8 months or so, from the start they have been slow to pay. Now, however, they don't answer mail, certainly won't take a call and give bull**** reasons for non-payment when you eventually get someone on the phone who can answer qustions. I've spoken with a couple of other contractors who have the same problem-most worse than mine- but there's quite a few of us at this.So any new info?
By-the-way I'm still looking for payment for March.

Geez - Call a meeting of all contractors involved - firstly outside of the company and then with a representative of that company once all of the issuses are defined.
Get someone on the inside to send you a listing of the phone numbers/emails of the other contractors....

Hi Limkdude30. Are u from kk by any chance? I might have worked with you for a while starting off in dw. Anyways you are not the first and won't be the last. Dw started off I think ok. But they are in trouble if they think they can treat people like crap and get away with it. but what goes around comes around. If they keep up their antics they will not last long. I hope colm Piercy and declan Campbell read this! The service to customers needs also to improve, as with their download limits, And this rolling whatever they call it which is a total scam. Also counting the upload bandwith consumption with the download is totally wrong!
