My mom hosted a show for me back on November 9th. It was a joint show that I did with a Home Interiors lady. Well one of the guests was a recruit of the Home Interiors gal. So she is a direct sales person too.
She ordered $60+ in Pc stuff and paid me with a check. I cashed the check and a week later, I get a notice from my bank that the check bounced because of insufficiant?? funds. So I call the lady and tell her the check was returned and that the she still owed me for her order ( that she already had btw) + a $7 returned check fee ( because that is what my bank charges me for a returned check).She says she will pay me in cash and give it to my mom at church the next day. ( My mom talked to the HI recruiter I did the show with and this lady says she bounces checks all the time, but always makes good on them right away....HA HA RIGHT!)
So I call my mom a week later, to meet her in town to get the money ( I live 40 min from my mom), and when she gives it to me there is a $20 check and the rest was in cash. SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO PAY ME ALL CASH!:grumpy: So I go and deposit that cash and check and lo and behold I get a notice that the second check was returned as well! So I call the gal and she says she would send me a money order (this was beginning of Dec.) So a week later still no money order. So I call her again. And again...and again....I get the answering machine on both the home and cell phone numbers. So it has been two months since she ordered and I am still out $27. :yuck:
Seeing as how she is a direct sales person as well ( and knows how things go), you would think she of all people wouldn't do something like this!
Anywhoo....any advice on what to do next? I am continuing to call her, with no avail.:cry:
