Hi
Be nice to your client, dont ask again on any patment...wait until he need some modification on the application, make a ka-boom + encryption data (in a textbox lostfocus), get pay :)

>The client was very happy when I completed the project, and I have his email stating such - and also requesting I work longer term with him. However, when he got the bill he wanted to negotiate a differnt price (or take it up with the UT member and I assume have him pay me). I agreed to a different price with the client just to get it over with. By the way, that different price was 1/2 price. I still haven't received payment, although he has said "it's in the mail."

>My question is this: if I don't get paid, or if the client attempts to ask for further discounts what my next step is. It's such a small amount of money as far as I am concerned I am thinking of just deleting the project and not shipping him my source code.

>Any thoughts is appreciated. I am just trying to make sure I am not over-reacting, but I want it to just be over with.
