A woman says she's angry at her friend for sending her an invoice for his surveying service, months after he helped her view a property. Whilst the woman feels previously hosting her friend for a short break should qualify as payment, hundreds of people feel she is in the wrong and should definitely pay her friend for his time.
The woman took to the popular forum Mumsnet to explain the situation and ask for advice. She said her friend of 15 years was an architect and she had asked for his advice before purchasing a property. She said her friend had agreed to help her and had let her know his fee before attending the property and carrying out his survey.
Later, the woman and her husband decided to pull out of purchasing the property as it was a "wreck". The woman didn't immediately receive an invoice from her friend so presumed he had waivered the bill since they previously allowed his family to stay with them for a week, free of charge.
