Credit Checks
How can you ensure that you are going to get paid?
Checking a potential client's credit rating is recommended to judge the financial status and trustworthiness of a company before signing a contract and entering a working relationship with them. You can also credit check existing clients, say for example you are not receiving payments on time. Leeds Chamber provides a credit checking service to members at significantly discounted rates through Graydon.
