I love the concept of Feed4ward, we recently dodged a bloke who called us for some work, after searching the app we found out he owed another company over 10k for quoted works and refused to pay, so we refused to work with him. Saved us there Feed4ward. Thank you

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if a client is not responding to my invoice?
If a client isn’t responding to your invoice, start with a polite follow-up via email, phone, or text. If they still don’t reply, consider sending a formal reminder or late payment notice. With Feed4Ward, you can check if other tradies have reported similar issues with the client before taking on a job.
How can I prevent clients from not paying on time?
To avoid late payments, always set clear payment terms upfront, request deposits before starting, and issue invoices promptly. Checking a client’s history on Feed4Ward before working with them can also help you spot potential payment issues before they happen.
What are the legal payment terms for invoices in Australia?
Payment terms vary depending on agreements, but most invoices in Australia are due within 7, 14, or 30 days. If a client delays payment beyond the agreed terms, you may have legal grounds to charge late fees or take further action. Feed4Ward helps you find reliable clients who respect agreed payment terms.
What are my rights if a client refuses to pay for work done in Australia?
In Australia, you have legal rights to claim payment for completed work. If a client refuses to pay, you can send a formal demand letter or escalate the issue through a debt recovery service or small claims court. Feed4Ward helps tradies avoid these situations by providing real reviews on clients before you accept a job.
What actions can’t I take to collect an overdue invoice?
While you have the right to collect unpaid invoices, you cannot harass, threaten, or use deceptive tactics to recover debt. It’s best to follow proper legal channels, such as debt collection agencies or small claims court. Save yourself time, stress, and unpaid invoices by checking a client’s reputation first.
How can I check if a client has a history of late or missed payments?
Before accepting a job, use Feed4Ward to search for real reviews from other tradies. You’ll see feedback on a client’s payment history, communication, and reliability—so you can avoid problem clients before they cost you time and money.
