Dear colleagues,
I recently made the mistake of submitting a complicated Arabic - German translation without asking for a deposit (I guess I though that because their website looked legitimate, they should be fine to work with; big mistake!).
The company subsequently confirmed receipt of the invoice but never submitted the payment, in spite of my incessant reminders and notices. The company insists on not having received my invoices and does not respond to my emails.
NATIVE-SPEAKER.ORG operates also in other language combinations and contacts freelance professionals by email.
Please take my warnings regarding this company into consideration.

Please make a Blue Board posting about this - you don't have to be a paid Proz.com subscriber to post there. I think you will find the name will soon be removed from this post since naming names isn't allowed in the public forum.
