Trading standards want to know!
they have there own team of solicitiors,
& are backed up with the police, & bailiifs.
Ive reported my case,
as have 3 other window cleaners that have problems with this company.
my experience with them:
My criteria:
ask 4 telephone numbers: re: Padlocked back gates &"Dogs "
front only of terraced houses, because i have 4 days of school runs.
And u cant get to owners houses b4 they go to work.
The work i recieved in ramsgate
15 of the 17 houses were terraced houses.
These home owners all work, so u cant get access to customers due to obvious reasons, limited time school runs, etc.
The initial work was actually charged to me at 4 times plus & not 2.
They have breached their own contract on 17 different levels.
Also the 2 areas i asked them to canvass, they never went there?
Alarm bells went off, when i recieved a text from a lleged customer, saying words to the effect "thanks but no thanks"
So i went proactive...knocked at the door?
No one lived there by that name, no canvassers went to that house..
Alarm bells really went off...
the actual work only added up to in their world
£257...if u could do back & front.
Accessible houses only equated to £137 out of £1000 of work........
Of which ive been charged.......
actual work that were willing to have them cleaned was £64....
And not thinking about it, as customers tolkd me so.
Or it was a 1 off as they were moving soon.
And lastly a customer was "thinking about it", & gave phone number & details, & would be in touch m if they wanted them cleaned.......And definetly was n't commiting to a contract of any sort
So im making it public knowledge, so you guys dont get duped, conned in any way.
