Hi,

I won't be bothering you again. This will be the final time I email about this. As you are aware, you used an article of mine without paying for it. I've requested payment multiple times and still received nothing. I appreciate that you paid me for the six other articles I was owed for (albeit more than six months late in some cases), but I invoiced you for seven articles. If you had not published the seventh article then there would not be so much of an issue, but after using my work and not paying for it, I need to take action.

As you are also aware, my name appears in your magazine and I have the emails to prove I was asked by your company to do the work, so your argument that nobody could prove I worked for your publication is flawed. I understand if your company is having financial difficulties, but as you already told me, x,xxx baht is nothing to you, so I trust you will be good for the payment.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Matt Crook

    Matt, maybe you should threaten to use your well-read blog and influence to name and shame them?

    I'd certainly appreciate knowing the identity as I will steer clear of freelancing for them.
