My project started in August 2014.

In June and July, I had spent two months researching and seeking web developers for an ecommerce website, with a great amount of customisation involved.

I went through a shortlist and awarded the project to someone who really proved to be the right and well knowledgeable developer for the project, well so I thought.
What was quoted by him included all the requirements to date, nothing had changed.

I am at my wits end now after the 3rd deadline has been missed, even with multiple emails from him committing to the deliverables.

Gearing up to the most recent launch, I had sadly built up an amazing customer base and I have been let down by my developer once again, 8 days prior to the launch, he went quiet...

I am asking for any advise you may have on this subject, it has been the most frustrating 5 months and I really don't know which way to turn.

Thank you!
