Webber Wentzel Transcription Service

I provided transcription services for Webber Wentzel through a transcription company acting as the client. The agreed payment terms for the invoice dated 6 February 2025 indicated processing during March, without a specified payment date. On 31 March 2025, I inquired with the transcription company regarding the status of the outstanding payment from Webber Wentzel. Subsequently, on the same day, Webber Wentzel communicated via email to the transcription company, stating: 'Kindly note we have funds have not been received for Eu**** and Ken**** matters, Payment will be processed when funds have been received. We will advise accordingly...'"

The agreed payment terms for services rendered are 30 days from the invoice date. There have been previous instances of delayed payments from this company. The current late payment has resulted in budgetary constraints. While project submissions are consistently accompanied by specific and often urgent deadlines for completing transcription services, the timeliness of payments has not consistently aligned with these expectations.

Regrettably, there was a discrepancy between the payment commitments made by Webber Wentzel to my client and the subsequent payment execution. Due to the recurring nature of delayed payments, I made the decision to conclude my professional relationship with my client, as consistent, timely payments are a fundamental aspect of my business operations.
