Customer texting me at 23.51pm Friday night
« on: February 07, 2014, 11:52:43 pm »
Just had a text come thru, accepting my gutter clean quote of £180 lol


Will they wake up in the morning to regret that, due to being on the sauce?  ;D


I quoted it ages ago haha

I've had enquiry forms come through from the website on christmas eve, christmas day, boxing day and the funniest one was at 11.38 pm on new years eve. Mind you it was peeing it down

That's the power of todays technology as ppl can get in contact anytime they want ;D

I love it when it rains heavy as the phone never seems to stop ringing with ppl wanting there gutters & downspouts unblocking.

Nice one bud...Happy days ;)

People working shifts will be those ones who will probably be the odd hours callers.

In the motor trade the night security would occassionally leave phone back messages from people who phoned the dealership in the early hours. A few were existing customers and bought again.

Just because you received it at 23.51, doesn't mean that is when they sent it, they might be in a dodgy signal area!. I recently had to start phoning a customer the night before, instead of texting, as she was not receiving my message until the next morning after she had left for work, and therefore she hadn't left money for me!.

I keep my mobile on all night as it is also my alarm clock. I've had a couple of calls in the middle of the night.

I keep forgetting my pin number so I keep it switched on all the time! You're right about my being tight though! The phone's the cheapest, most basic one you can get!  ;D

Mines at least 5 years old Johnny. I'm tighter than you!! I know it's really hard to understand for the younger generation, but I only use it as a phone and an alarm. Mrs Cozy has the latest Samsung Galaxy Nexus thingy with built-in coffee machine and microwave cooker. And a blue light or two in there somewhere.  ;D

I am with you Cozy.

My wife and I shelled out 100 euro today for a new phone for my younger daughter because she didn't want one like mine. Openly weeping as the hard earned was handed over didn't change her mind!

Tell me about it! I've got two daughters (aged 17 and 15)!

I keep telling them that they will have to come and work for me instead of the other way round!
