This argument is still raging ? Wow.
I think the money in envelope is just asking for trouble, trouble that the client almost never wins.
Either hand the cash over or have the SP open the envelope and count it in front of you.
I am NOT saying that every time there is a disagreement on a perceived short change it is a scheming SP.
Just that for the clients piece of mind, the money should be counted in the presence of both the client and the SP.
As sure as the client is that he counted correctly, the possibility remains that he could have made a mistake.
I just see that handing over the correct amount of cash or opening the envelope would make it so much easier for both parties.
