The start of the collaboration was good — the budget and one design were approved. However, during the development process, new sections of pages and redesigns of existing elements began to appear. I provided new estimates for these changes, which were approved, and I started the execution. Because of this, the deadlines shifted, but the work was completed fully according to the technical specifications.
At the finalization stage of the project, the client began to demand additional payment and, in fact, tried not to pay for work equivalent to 7 hours. As a result, we agreed that he would only pay for 2 hours of work, meaning at least 5 hours remained unpaid.
Advice to performers: clarify the technical specifications three times, ask about all details, and provide estimates with a large margin to avoid working at a loss due to additional changes that arise during the design iterations.
