My Babysitter ISN'T paying me!!!!!!!! HELP?

Question

My sister and I babysit a one and one half year old for two hours in the evening. Her dad kept telling us that he would pay us, but he still hasn't. Now he has dropped the subject completely. I don't know if he forgot or what... I NEED SOME ADVISE!!!!!

Answer 1

Remind/ask him, and if he still doesn't pay, don't stop asking.  If he doesn't pay, just stop babysitting the kid.  There's no point in you doing work when this guy isn't paying you.  If he's inconvenienced, he'll be more likely to pay you.

Answer 2

i would say to bang on his door really early every morning and demand payment until he caves.

Answer 3

I certainly hope you are not going to do it again for him or them. You need to let your parents know whats happening. Now the other thing would be, let him know that he received a service from you and you anticipated that he would keep his part of the verbal deal to pay you or it least communicate with you. Snap him back into his adulthood.

Answer 5

Do not do anymore babysitting for him until he pays you. Tell your parents what is going on. May him a bill and put the total hours you babysat for him on it.

Answer 6

Tell him you need to be paid.  If he refuses to pay, refuse to babysit for him anymore.   And get your parents involved.   I had a similar situation when I was a teenager.  Babysat for a women who kept saying she'd pay and never did.   Eventually I told her that I couldn't keep babysitting for free, she needed to find someone else and my dad went after her for the money she owed.   She paid it and I moved on to more lucrative babysitting offers.

Answer 7

tell him you want your money. or you'll quit. even if you do quit, you better get your money from him. tell your parents to talk to him.

Answer 8

Get your parents involved and stop the free babysitting. Don't let him give you any more excuses!

God Bless!

Answer 9

Tack a bill onto his front door, keep doing it every day with slightly increased amounts until he gets the message.

Answer 10

He hasn't forgot - he's taking advantage of you. Stop babysitting immediately if you haven't already. Do NOT let him talk you into doing it by giving you some sob story about how you're putting him in a bind. He is not considerate of you so you should no longer be to him. Don't feel bad or apprehensive or you will continue to get walked over. Tell him you expect payment right away or you will be forced to take other action. Get your parents involved and make sure you get paid. Small claims court perhaps if it should come to that, although I doubt it. He would be foolish to let it go that far.

Answer 11

Mail him a bill.

Answer 12

Some people are a******s like that. You really have to give him an ultimadum. Pay me or I quit. Period!

Answer 13

mail him a bill and dont go back unless he pays first
