Dear Maria,
I am very surprised to receive this information. I had most definitely informed (name) of my terms for work when he first enquired on your behalf.
As is the case with all Client Relocation companies, I begin working for a client immediately with such information on PPSN. Bank. etc. email communications. That is the nature and structure of this client relocation work. This includes, assisting an individual who plans to move to another country, and when the time is right , assist them in the search to find a suitable property. Preparation for the Bank and Landlord documentation guidance, and eventual client recommendation to a landlord in support of the client's application to be considered as a reliable tenant.
There has been a breakdown in communication somewhere along the line. I had no reason to think that (name) would not pass on my details and terms to you. The 7 hours I'd logged for you, was very much an underestimate of my time.
I'm sure that you will understand, that given the considerable effort that I've invested on your behalf to date Maria, I do need to obtain some remuneration to cover my costs. When you indicated that you did wish to use my services, I had absolutely no reason to question things. I'm a professional lady, and take pride in my work.
Under the circumstances, I will accept 85 Euros for my time and efforts which I hope was of good help to you prior to your arrival in Ireland. If you wish to use my services in the future, I will be delighted to help you.
(and here she copied that letter sent to the other person who recommended me to her, in which she indicated 25 euros per hour)
Вопрос хочешь ли с ней иметь дело, когда приедешь? Если нет, то можно просто не отвечать. Вам надо было на фикс. сумму с ней договариваться. Она может супер профессиональна и реально оказывает помощь быстро и эффективно, но то что она сделала изначально (попросив оплату сейчас) - неумно. И я спросила других людей, давно живущих, все посмеялись и сказали - chancer. А неумно, потому что потерять клиента может. Так что up to you.
