Hi

Yes we have similar ads in our BT phone book, personally i wouldn't bother advertising with them.

Why has that other guy got NHS on his ad. Dodgy or what.

[John Milnes]

He would have to clean 21 houses....probably just a couple of days work for him 

[from edge2edge]

I suppose its always horses for courses but at those prices i would be so knackered earning poor money i would need to be put down after a week.I always find that if someone only calls you because you will clean everything for next to nothing then they usually expect all the abuse of decades to come out of their suites and carpets hence some trully hard graft on my part.So you work 3 times as hard for a third of the money.Jeeeeps that aint fun in my book.Regards Alan(swindon)

"Distance no object" eh?

I'll book him to come and do my house in Kettering and "forget" to be home

5 hour round trip, should keep him off the streets of Wakefield for a day

[clinton]

  Looks a cheap add as well

Bet the jobs he does get will be the ones we turn away.

Just cound not imagine the hard work he will have to do

Glad i never went in the bt book as this year we have 10 cleaners all next to each other

Just booked him to do your house jim ketering here he comes

[Jim_77]

I'll not get the kettle on

[clinton]

Too late jim hes on his way

Also a special discount for the first 2 jobs

Vax machine here he comes

[Jim_77]

Oh that's a relief, it'll be a better clean than it normally gets then

[carlton care]

Very similar advert and pricing to ours TWENTY YEARS AGO !!!

For NHS read NMS................Deliberate mistake ?

[clinton]

Just wondering if anyone would phone an advert like that?

Mean if we wernt in the cleaning game of lets say another service?

 just told my g friend it was my new flyer and she said to me oh no what have you done

[Shaun_Ashmore]

people will ring it and not like what they hear on the other side of the phone as he most likely will not give 2 hoots about what he is talking about so then they'll move on to someone who does care BUT they'll expect to pay the same price.

[clinton]

I agree there shaun then there stunned whe we say the average price we charge.Followed by a large thud

[carlton care]

I've come across a few charging these prices recently. One even has a picture of smilng operator beside his T/M

[Gary Webber]

I always find these ads a blessing! It will filter out all the people who want a cheap job from phoning you, then saying ill have to speak to my husband (IM NOT PAYING THATTO CLEAN  MY £40 CARPET FROM CARPETRIGHT)

Gary

[Neil Williams]

Who is it exactly who produces this add?
All over the country vertually the same add goes out but the only thing that changes is the address and phone number.

[Shaun_Ashmore]

I think that teh cleaner (broadest sense of the word) sees an ad that appeals to them and copies it and it goes around like that, or the copy people do it like that.

BT are trying to redsign mine plus put preasure on to close although book is not out to FEB

I think they have tem plates they use .

Im not happy if they are going back to allowing price adverts as you will always get a cocky individual who decides try and cush  the competion

 

[Peter Blackburn]

I actually went red reading them ads, how embarrassing, not just for them idiots but us lot on a whole.
Tony's Complete Clean, and a pic of a old lady with a vac. 
Unique Cleaning Service,,, NO S***, there one of a kind with them prices!
