[/quote]Not every bank. We bank with Bank of America and I can stop payment on a check right through their automated line....you don't even speak to a person. I'll bet that's exactly how she did it.[/quote]

yep! and the cake looks nice to me.

From being on this site, you all have really opened my eyes to how silly people are! I really would never imagine that people like to play games like this about a cake that they know they couldn't afford in the first place. this is so silly! i can tell I'm gonna have many-an-interesting-day when I begin caking seriously. Lawd give me the strength to not flip out on people about my $$ icon_twisted.gif
Everything I see in the world, I think of what cake pan it's shaped like!

Dude.....what's up with the new screen name? Are you trying to fool us? icon_lol.gif

OK good....we have the same CC Anniversary so I'll always know who you are.

I've been wanting to change mine, but I was afraid none of you guys would "recognize" me. LOL!! icon_lol.gif

It sounds like the the MOB wasn't so sure about the details. Was it in the contract that an outside florist will place fresh flowers on the cake? With out a doubt the MOB is in the wrong! I wonder if a better contract would be helpful in avoiding this in the future.

And what was the florist smoking? Sticking callas stems right into the cake!!!? Poisonous??? AND- Look at the one that is just above the bottom boarder on the top tier. Ya that one right in the middle is not even placed nicely, just sticking out! LOL

I'm still trying to figure out what was wrong with this cake. Did I miss something?? Am I a dunce? It looks great to me unless there was something very specific left off or not done as agreed. Flowers shouldn't be your concern, unless like Sad mentions, they do something boneheaded like that....might as well have squeezed some hydrangea juice over it for extra flavor! icon_cool.gif . Very odd. So sorry for this. Psychos suck! thumbsdown.giftapedshut.gif

Ok. here is my 2 cents. My contract states that 50% is due at the booking (as they are signing the contract they are handing me a cheque), and the other 50% is due 30 days before the event. Yes, I said it... 30 days!!!! That way I know for a fact that the cheque is good. I have never had one bounce or cancel. I also have had a couple of people back down when I explain what my policy is over the phone. AND if they cancel after the booking but prior to the 30 days, they completely lose their deposit.

Good luck, and I hope that the bank works it all out for you in the end.
