After all I do full job and do not receive payment, so here is the option that the management collects may be decucts some percentile but nothing ever happens. Brandis

Option for registering non-payment issue when making LWA entry Mar 31, 2008

Dear Brandis,

It sounds like you are referring to the form which you may optionally fill out when making an LWA entry if there is a non-payment issue present. The wording has been "I authorize ProZ.com to use my name in communications with outsourcers in regards to non-payment". This has been expanded to


I authorize ProZ.com to use my name in communications with outsourcers in regards to non-payment (Please note that ProZ.com is not responsible for collecting payments)


in order to help avoid any other possible confusion. Thanks.

Best regards,

Jared
