Hi Christina, We have yet to receive payment on this invoice for service provided 10/3/11. Can you please tell me who I should speak to or can you let me know when we can expect payment? Thank you.

Christina and George, I am following up again on an open invoice which is now 92 days past due. If there is a hold up because of some information you need on our end, please let me know. Otherwise, please let me know when we can expect payment.  I never received a response on my email below from George. Thank you.

Hello George, Almost a month has passed since your email below. We need to be paid on this, immediately. It is now 115 days past due.  We greatly appreciate you taking us on as a new vendor, but we can't work for free. Please let me know when payment will be mailed. Thanks.

Unfortunately I still do not have a check for you yet. Cash is very tight and as soon as we can we will get you paid. Thanks,George

George, It's been another month with no word or payment from AE. As far as I can tell, AE Worldwide has NOT filed for Bankruptcy and is STILL conducting business which means to me that you must be getting money from somewhere to continue operations.  Have you given up on paying all of your vendors or just us? You must understand my frustration and I have been very patient and understanding. However, this invoice is now 150 days past due. I respectfully ask that you make a payment THIS month. If that means you don't pay another vendor for a month - so be it- but I need this invoice paid in full.

I apologize but I still do not have your check yet. It is probably going to be a couple of more weeks.
