    Default Non Paying Parent and Morton Michel

    Have had a child leave without giving proper notice.

    So a few phone calls to Morton Michel Legal Department, followed their advice and sent parent a letter giving seven days to pay, to which I received no response.

    Made a claim against her on Monday and received email today saying they are going to pay £650 straight into my bank account

    Can't fault the advice and service they've given me

    Wow! That is fantastic.
    NCMA seriously need to re-think their way. Can us members lobby them somehow? Pip, I know you have dealings with them, what can we do to ensure a match with MM?

    Money gets paid directly from MM

    I always thought that they paid you directly and then pursued the parent, but from the wording in the email they sent, it appears that they dont pursue the parent if its under a certain amount

    From reading posts on here it makes me think I will choose MM. Is it still a sensible thing to become just a member of the NCMA too?

    I think the only way we are going to get NCMA to pull their socks to what we NEED then its a case of letting them know what we want and need, what do and don't like.
    Contact Richard Aris Customer Services Manager

    the more people who tell them the more they have to work from.

    there are differences between NCMA and MM as described by Sarahs document.

    I do honestly believe in NCMA and their work in representing us as childminders, they do do some sterling work in lobbying for changes etc.

    have heard nothing but praise for MM and was going to use them when I register, however as part of our start up grant package with the local council we have PL insurance free for first year and contracts pack etc free from NCMA seems pointless paying for another one when I have one free, so I will prob change over after a year

    Im with MM too, also got my car insurance with them for the 2nd year running as they were the cheapest around . They are also cheaper than NCMA, think I paid £41 for this year including PL:
