It’s always a very good idea to be a bit cautious (use critical thinking processes) when there are MULTIPLE threads (see recent direct Notary Cafe thread references below) about NO or SLOW payment on a business entity.
Why (one might ask)?
Sudden payment normally reveals that the business entity is encountering difficulties with Signing Order placement as word spreads about the direct non-payment/slow payment experiences. This is a tactic to garner confidence.
COMMON TECHNIQUES:
NO PAY/SLOW PAY => Progressing to definitively NO PAY
SLOW PAY => Progressing to definitively NO PAY
NO PAY/SLOW PAY => With verbal or written commitments to improve OR the “accounting difficulties” have been rectified . . . then, subsequently paying for an order or two . . . then, progressing to definitively NO PAY
Truly, it’s a judgement call. In general, leopards don’t change their spots.
