riverdistrict apartments mark mercer Did not pay Patti Aden for cleaning services rendered rockford, Illinois

This letter was sent to Mark Mercer certified mail.  It contains invoices that were not paid.  These invoices were NEVER addressed.  I use Ms Aden's cleaning services for over 10 years and she has proven to be reliable, thorough and honest in all our dealings.  I am appalled by Mr. Mercers behavior and threatening tone to Ms Aden when confronted with his theft of her services.  I am attaching a letter which was sent to the River District as well as Mr. Mercer in which i assisted Ms Aden with composing and arranging the invoices which i saved on my computer.  Ms Aden does not have the money to take Mr Mercer to court which I had suggested.  Mr Mercer seems to have a penchant for capitalizing on such behavior knowing that the hassle and expense of going to the law for due process is not worth the effort for the victims loss.  

The following is the letter and invoices which were sent to him numerous times and by certified mail. 

Mr. Mark Mercer

Dear Mr. Mercer,
 
This letter is to inform you that I have not received payment for cleaning services that I provided for River District Apartments under our agreement. I have brought this to the attention of the office staff as well as yourself and have still not received a check though I was informed that one had been mailed.
 
The last check that I received was May 9th, 2012 check # 802106 for $225.00 for services at 1725 11th Street units B and C.  Since then I have invoices for various work done at 1138 & 1142 Revell Av, The Carlton Apartments, The Palace, and the office, as well as the post-remodel clean-up of one bathroom at the office building. All of these invoices remain un-paid, and are included with this letter.

Upon speaking with the staff at River District Apartments Office, the staff claimed they had mailed the check; however I have not received it.

I have gone over all recent un-paid invoices, and made corrections to them as necessary per your instructions for billing. 
 
I have been in the home and office cleaning service for over 10 years and have built a business based on quality service, fair pricing and ethical business practices which has won many satisfied, loyal customers for my
business.  Since I have received no complaint regarding the quality of my services rendered nor the accuracy of my invoice to this point, I shall assume that the check was for payment was fully intended to be rendered for services provided as your staff said it was mailed. 
 
For this reason I am asking that you cancel the check that was mailed and re-issue a check for services rendered.  I cannot continue to provide services until this matter is cleared up.  This was not
part of the terms agreed to for the services provided. 

 
Regards,
 
Patti Aden
