Slip is partially correct. I've seen posts with "I hope we get another payment whilst its signed", one saying its paid into an escrow so can we get the money?
RNS: payments on account.
See the little S on payments?
See the word account - you only have an account if you have a contract - not the final for reasons outlined in Bigears post of the 10% increase quibble over port charges that spills over to our final fee, but an interim. The payments are based on a calculation - which is outlined in a document - a contract.
From the RNS again: for work undertaken. What has an escrow account got to do with past work done? Its not conditional which is what an escrow is like innit?
Re tarrif charges, I'm placing my money on them being done prior to the 30 th Sept deadline of fully operational - gotta have your price list sorted by then - otherwise both the bosses look like ********s.
Biggest port on the continent - I'm sure 10% can be negotiated and everyone saves face - and face is what its all about.
If you look at the pricing, you can see the mms have directed this all day.
ATB - **** poor board today, yet again - almost as predicable as the SP.
