Thanks for the replies. This is a UK based company with substantial operations in the US so, I am sure they are subject to US federal laws. I am amazed they remain in business...or that they continue to do business with Remedy contractors. Ignorance is a bliss. For them.
A funny thing happened after posting to ARSLIST. I sent a stern email (but a few nothces below last years's nasty email I talked about earlier) and cc'd their top guys. In two hours or so, the 1099 appeared heroically as a pdf in an email reply! As if they were waiting for a not-so-polite request all along. So much for my mother's instructions to be nice. Or may be this list has a way of producing results. I don't know. Last year I posted a somewhat vague message about payment troubles. Dan replied/inquired privately. Shortly afterwards, the payment materialized...*all* of it in a wire transfer at no cost to me (two weeks before my second baby was due). Dan never claimed credit, but I am sure he is to blame, together with the potential for exposure on the list, and perhaps, the drastic change in volume and tone of my demand. Anyway, contractors be warned. I have heard others' horror stories with this company. I doubt this is the only company to watch out for. I sugest a contractor's annual BMC partner hall of fame and hall of shame. There is no reason a company should be allowed to continue to exploit/abuse independents out there. --- Jim Fox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The company is liable for penalties for not sending > out the 1099.
