What would happen after service given but can&#39;t agree on payment method
<p>What happens after someone gets a service and then is charged but cannot pay using any of the provided methods?</p>

<p>I came up with the question because I used a shipping company and it would seem they expect me to type out all my credit card information and send it to them in an email, which I don't think is very secure. Any suggestions? I was considering giving it to them over the phone as then I could be certain who I'm talking with.</p>

<p>If this requirement was not made before rendering the service, you are under no obligation to accept the term. You and the service provider must now find an agreeable method of payment. You still owe the provider but if you are compelled to pay then the provider will be compelled to be more accommodating in their allowed payment methods (cash, at least).</p>

<p>As a general rule, if you are providing a service for any significant amount of money, you should require payment up front or at least a deposit and payments at milestones. Especially if you're 7,000 miles away from your client and put <em>any</em> restrictions on method of payment.</p>
