More and more companies do not pay their partners or only very slowly. In the beginning there were only a few companies, but now you can read about them almost every day. And all this since the countries started regulations. The payment behavior of some companies leaves a lot to be desired. The cheek is that they just do it, ignore it and don't inform their partners. When asked, there are always new excuses or answers that they are waiting for feedback from their finance departments, etc.

Of course, a lot of money is transferred through the banks and problems can sometimes arise or lead to delays. But these companies do not inform their partners about it or postpone their "obligations" (payment periods) further and further. The bad thing is that you have to worry more and more about what should actually happen automatically. If managers don't feel like answering or don't know what to answer you, you will simply be ignored even if they were online a short time before.

That means no communication or an update for days. Of course we know that the individual managers cannot help it if their financial departments do not want to or cannot pay. Anyone who is reasonably familiar with the matter then of course tries to involve other contacts/persons in order to put a little pressure on them. Sometimes it doesn't help but sometimes it doesn't.
These are partly unsatisfactory conditions, above all for partners who are self-employed and have to live from it. There are only a handful of operators left who always pay their partners on time.
