Today, the couple I've been housesitting for returned. Apparently, I kept the place too clean, and they don't believe that I actually stayed here. They're refusing to pay me. FML

Just an excuse not to pay you. Sone people are really dicks.

Take a shit on their dining table and ask if it's enough proof to get paid.

Don't give their keys back until they pay you?

Call the cops until they do cause that's a bullshit excuse

I've had a similar situation happen with me. I've learned to take a pic with their dogs or while sitting on their couch watching a movie.

I would burn down their house, help them rebuild it then burn it down again and go to jail just to see them suffer!!

But if you left the house a mess they deduct your pay :/

As long as you have physical proof that they agreed to pay you a specific amount (email or texts), they are legally obligated to pay you. You can take them to small claims... Or Judge Judy :p

Throw some plates on the floor and food. And see if that makes a difference. Don't let them get away with it. Fight it

You can try to show a location map with time stamps on where you have been if you have location turned on your phone for proof. If not, you can take it to small claims court but you would probably spend more in fees than what you would actually get paid. I would just consider this a loss and bite the bullet.

You can ask the judge to award you the court costs; there's a section when you file that says what amount you're looking for; you add "plus court costs" in there (may vary from region to region where this is but it's there).

good to know if I ever have to go to court lol.

Not cool at all! They went on vacay, spent too much money and now they're looking to gyp you outta your money to help them trim the fat. So not fair!!!

*cheat. they're trying to cheat op out of money. there are many ways to get your point across without using the g**sy slur.
