Recruitment Agency Not Paying Invoice after 2 months, what to do?

Exactly - you have effectively said you will agree the new payment terms, if they agree to pay your additional accountant fees. They haven't done that, so there's no reason not to start chasing the debt.

This would be our view, an offer of an extended credit period in return for payment of the OPs additional fees has been made but not accepted by either party as yet.

If the agency can't or wont agree to pay the fees you have incurred then push for immediate payment as the talk of using the funds for an unrelated legal action makes us very nervous...

Red for a reason. That's a liquidity issue. It *could* be the case that they're trying it on so they don't have to try as hard to figure out where the money is coming from, but their debts shouldn't be your problem. That said, a friend lost a printing business because his main client went bust with debts outstanding.

Agreed. We have seen many a profitable business sunk by an unexpected bad debt.
