Phil, you're no mug!
S**t happens unfortunately. This woman obviously set u up from the off! U can't protect yourself from that!
I know these words won't change anything, but, you're way to hard on yourself mate. Cut yourself a break, there was nothing you could have done being the type of guy you are! DECENT AND HARDWORKING! That's no mug!
good luck Phil, if u need anything jus pick up the phone!

keep you bloody head up Phil, none of this crap is your fault, I'm sure Julie has the measure of you by now and is saying the same, keep being a top pro and doing top work, that's what you need to think about now!

Phil.i have had a 3.5 k debt for over three years now and I have not had the energy to pursue the lady who is a senior partner in top london law firm.i know i am in right and even have email to say what a great job was done but she just decided to not pay becAuse I got ****ed off with her lack time given to project .
but you have inspired me to follow this up before too late.it is easy for us to say just go legal but it is a whole load of Agro.but people like this get away with this kind of stuff because people do not stand up to them.i will now go down your line as well as much as I don't really want to.i am still sure your client will fold

Chin up phil, nothing is worth putting yourself through this. My advice would be accept it as a loss of money and a lesson learned, now I'm not saying give up!! I think you should certainly pursue it but stop thinking about it, just let go but in back ground just go through the steps to getting your money back but try not to let it control your life in the here and now. In the medium term, you will get your money back, you will have learned a lesson too. That's not what's bothering you I guess though, it's the fact she has done this, questioning your work and if your anything like me then you will also be questioning your work, well phill, no work is perfect mate, not even the work of probably the best tiler in England and after all... ​it's only tiles man ;-)

Thanks for that Sharon. I think we are all up against these type of people.

They are out there, the sad part seems to be the law gives them to much time and to many options.

When I went to citizens advice I wanted a template letter to send to a bad paying customer, guess what, they didn't have any.

They had plenty for the public complaining about bad trades people.

It seems we don't have the same rights as the bad customers.

Can you get into the place to see if she has changed anything?

No mate, not without breaking in and I would not do that.
