Only had one instance early on on the self-employed world. Contract and everything. Huge project for a major hospital facility in Philly going through an all-women ad agency. Spent months on the project. Hospital and agency loved the work, nothing wrong on that end. Sent them everything.
Came time to pay up, they took 11 months, ignored my calls and emails. I was polite about everything. Ended up getting legal involved. Just took one letter. Paid the next Friday.
One of the producers leaves and goes to a big ad agency and contacts me several years later. I notice the old agency no longer exists. I didn't even respond to her, just for the simple fact that I was being ignored for months on end.
Learn your lessons I guess. Make sure you do the homework on the people you're doing work for. Don't just work for anyone willing to pay moneys.
