Some months ago, you could still have a "Personal" account, which allowed you to be paid as long as your client had a PayPal account (or opened one for that occasion), and this was 100% free. Direct payment through credit ... 20 Nov 2009 20:18 GMT /cafe/MegaBBS/forumthread15077msg189394.htm#189394 Jacek K.: As all Indians are still busy, let me tell you that in Poland, amazingly, you can only write off a non-recoverable claim before the lapse of two years. I haven't studied the relevant regulations myself, but was told, with respect to a certain type of intellectual services (not specifically ... 13 Nov 2009 11:19 GMT /cafe/MegaBBS/forumthread11727msg189271.htm#189271 Laurent Chiacchierini: You may have been the victim of a scam.

I did some work for the person who's name was XXXXXX from YYYYYY and his email address was ZZZZZZ in September. The total cost of the translations I did was $1,097.04. Although it's been about two months now, I haven't been paid at all. I sent a ... 12 Nov 2009 05:09 GMT /cafe/MegaBBS/forumthread12831msg189207.htm#189207 Liliana Boladz-Nekipelov: Definitely; clients should neither know about nor require any tools.

This is where a price per unit of work done ($/word-character-line) presents ... 11 Nov 2009 12:12 GMT /cafe/MegaBBS/forumthread12831msg189203.htm#189203 Jacek K.: Yes, I am perfectly comfortable with unit prices which one sets adequately (despite the fact that my time is also sold by the hour). My dentist charges for each shot, cleaning, filling, crown, bridge, root canal, implant, etc., and not for the time spent doing those, which may of course vary but ... 11 Nov 2009 12:10 GMT
