Thanks everyone for your advice and concern. It is nice to know that there are still people in this world who would pay their clients right away instead of creating situations like this.

I would have let her mail her own invoice/letter. Good learning experience, she is in college, correct, Momma Bear?

A nice Thank You I STILL KNOW where you live card is always appropriate.

My daughter did mail the letter and invoice. She did it this afternoon. Sorry if I didn't communicate that clearly.

That is ok, it just came across that you were fighting her battle. College is a great experience, but learning to fight your own battles, and make your way in the world, is survival skill. They dont have a text book for that
