A few months back i was stopped in the street to quote. Gave them my usual price in line with what I charge with their neighbours. Was given the usual let me think about it speak from him.
Today I was cleaning in the same cul-de-sac only for his partner to walk over to me asking if I knew a WC called xxx. I said "no", and they told me he only charged x amount which was about 40% less my quote. After he cleaned he demanded the next three cleans to be paid up front plus along with the current clean (cash only). They paid this, and guess what, they never saw him again. I asked if they new his number or company name. They said he refused to provide any of it, all they new was his first name.
I struggle to see how some people don't see the signs of a con when they are offered a cheap quote whilst handing over cash without knowing who they are handing it to.
