not you tho, right?!

if it's not you, there's a few extra customers comeing up for the taking in your area! ;D

shame tho cus it puts us all in bad light....I like the fact our customers can trust us, this sort of thing makes people think twice.

That is a real wrong un - bad apples in all jobs Im afraid but it doesnt help our cause .
   I used to do a massive house 8 years , it was £35 quid every 4 weeks then , husband always working away on shedload of cash ,wife always going out for lunch ,many times she would ask me to do insides as well and when I was half way round she would bring me a cuppa ,give me house key and ask me to lock up when I left and shove key though letterbox - nice feeling being trusted and horrible to see when someone does the dirty like that.

We have the keys and security codes for alarms ect for many houses inc one v famous oscar winner a guitarist in an equally famous pop group. one of the first questions you are asked if you have been burgaled is "who's your window cleaner?" If its one of our custys the old bill will ring up to see when we were last there and did we notice anything unusual.

i lost a £14.50 under priced customer today( should be £17).
  she has booked another window cleaner whos card states 'any house any size' '£2.50 front £6.50 all round'

call me parinoid but aint these prices dodgy.
1 he has no business sense if he is charging the same for a big house as a small
2 how can he survive with those prices, he be on min wage for being a boss
3 does he have insurance

4 i did think is he 'baiting'. the ex customer of mine has the best car on the street. the cheap window cleaner got them and either neighbor.  baiting i mean by giving a low price them biting, then he has an excuse to be on the property, he can then 'case the joint' and get a burglar friend to burgle the place.
