[CleanClear]

We’ve now taken the approach of offering a two clean holiday for any that cancel and mention the cost of living crisis. Four in the last two days and three have taken it up. I’m not normally flexible on these things but needs must.

With luck the government will adopt something that comes close to the Labour plan. Addressing just the most needy will do nothing for the economy as those people have nothing to spend anyway! Obviously something needs doing for businesses too. Worrying though what the current PM was saying about this being the price we need to pay to defeat Putin.

Do you do the .."can we ask why you're cancelling our services, just so we can improve?"  bit ? If so are the cancellations a result of cost of living crisis or to early to say yet ?

2 grand to go to Spain blimey just shows you how statistics can be wrong 🤣🤣.

Could be 7 nights? Or it could be a self catering holiday?

I’m just putting in a low number from the internet to show that Britons spend around 2k a year on their jolly’s . I know a lot will spend double/triple that but our bills are going up maybe 2k a year depending on how bad people are at turning lights off , taking 4 baths a day etc.

You do realise that not every address in the country will be paying £3549 a year for energy …. This is your average user , much like the average house price in the uk is  £281,161 , it doesn’t mean every house is valued at £281,161 .
The average family holiday to Spain cost apparently around £2k per trip , does this simply mean that families will lose out on a holiday a year and it’s not actually the end of the world….. just an alternative way of looking at the situation.

Yurp.



Don't know why they keep framing it with "average household price". I'm pretty sure most people understand how their electric bill works?

Exactly, it’s scare mongering .  Dazmond won’t be paying £3549. We know everyone is on the same tariff but we won’t all have the same bill.

Prices have risen 189% in 12 months, that's not scare mongering. It's profiteering by the energy producers.

189%  increase 😂😂😂😂😂 do you really believe this  trash you keep posting ?. Get a grip man

Mine has increased more than that but I don't have a cap.

Lol I seriously think you need some counselling , no ones has increased by that amount

It has, or it will have on Thursday.

If I remember correctly you have around 8 works vehicles?? No idea what you are earning but I have 3 and at this time don’t have any issues about paying the bills and ours have gone up yes but not by 189% that’s not the case at all .

Its a good idea and something ive been doing for years, i refer to it as a winter break, and  offer to not clean during months of dec,jan and feb. I dont advertise the fact but just offer it to customers who want to go 8 weekly and will be doing so with any cancellations i get this autumn. I cant cope over winter anyway so it helps (as long as not too many people do it).

[NBwcs]

Seems to be several people on here relying on the fact that their customers are well off so wont be affected as much. My round is a broadchurch, i have a right old mixture but have to say that the better heeled ones are quite often the tightest and the ones who dont tip ,and moan about money the most.

Look again. What were you paying in August last year? Compare that to what you will be paying in October and tell me the % increase.

But still the most likely to have a window cleaner as they’re not struggling to pay their bills

We don't generally get many cancels through the summer months, but this year it's a different story. We do ask every time and it's nearly always "cutting costs in difficult times" type response. Rarely quality but we do get the odd one that's "quality" related. We can't meet everyone's standards.

Truth is Mike, you and I have no idea about customers ability to pay bills. Half these people who outwardly show signs of wealth are living beyond their means, credit card maxed out etc. Time will tell and we won't have to wait long to find out how seriously we'll be affected. So much now relying on the government's response. Not often I agree with Nigel but start praying Rikki gets the job.

I know what I was  paying last  August but don’t  know what it will be this October BUT IT WONT BE 189% INCREASE

[Arnold Palmer]

If you say so.

[Splash & dash]

If you say so.

Just looked at the combined  gas and electric bill and it’s gone up by 60%  so far , that’s a long way off your 189%

Mines about 52% up from last august . Can’t believe my bill was about £58 last august for gas and electric combined!

What if you put it up to the October cap?

[Shrek]

It goes up another 80% but we get £66 a month discount

It will go up again but it won’t equal 189%
