Payment issues

[MonkeyPrincess]

When a dcp doesn't make payment by payday (for example, Thursdays for me) do you contact them everyday that payment is late as a Reminder? I feel like I shouldn't have to and I don't want to seem like a pain but hey, money is owing, plus incurring late fees. My contract states late fees are 20 per day up to 3 days, then I reserve the right to term and fill the spot. I haven't had payment issues with him before and I am not looking to term as I like the dad and child But I need to address it And looking for a tactful way to do so.

Thursday, Dcd claims his bank account was compromised and has been frozen. He says Apparently it was supposed to be unlocked Friday but it wasn't and now today, Saturday, it still isn't resolved. I have reminded him about late fees and he seems to get it. it's not his fault so I am.trying to be understanding but hey, what about my finances? Dcg only comes every other week and I am not waiting til the next time she comes to get paid for this past week. this is the first time I have encountered payment issues with this parent so any advice is appreciated.
