    Could contact the brand directly?
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    True, they may refund as a goodwill gesture, but you have no rights to a refund for change of mind.

    Anyone know who does any baby shops? Spent today in the maternity unit of the local hospital for my wifes 12 week scan :D

    Congratulations! :j

    Catalyst do a toy shop which has a nursery section. Pick up the torso shop from GR too, for some treats to spoil the mum to be :) And bag all the supermarket jobs going and stock up on nappies/baby food. The general store on Abai would be good for baby toiletries too.

    True, but you do have a right to be paid for work done, even as a subcontractor. Could do the brand a lot of damage to have "Brand refuses to pay thousands of subcontractors globally" in the papers.

    But you're not subcontracting for them, and that assumes of course that they haven't already paid BARE.
  • I have outstanding payments for Bare jewellery jobs and I have another job lined up for them next week. Not sure what to do, it's going to take almost 2hours of my time and be a massive pain so if I'm not paid for it I won't be happy. Would you cancel it and write them off as a ms company?

    I have no problem returning the product for something different, simply so that I can explain exactly why I am returning it to the store. I am sure this will not go unnoticed at head office….well that and the email they will get. I am sure it will not do the relationship any good between Bare and the jewellery company, assuming of course they don’t already know about it.

    Whilst the jewellery company are not the ones subcontracting the last thing they will want is an association with anything negative.

    My belief is that any agreement between Bare and me has been broken by them not providing payment within the timescales they set out. I also believe this frees me from their none disclosure clause so will be taking it down that route if the money is not forthcoming by tomorrow as per their email to spender.

    Also just for clarity I did not imply Helion and Bare were linked anymore, someone else seemed to think they were and I was just pointing out the relationship as I remember it. I have no problem with Helion and do not consider them the same as Bare.
