normally these sort have that tightly down eg if you steal customers bad things happen etc but if they dont its all fair game let us know how you go

I'll see what they have to say tomorrow, I won't play deal or no deal with the money just tell me what you are willing to pay.

Did you get one from a "uk property repair" who wanted 2grand a year to dish out the work to you?

if they dont charge us how do they get paid ;D

 

[Alpha man]

Had a email from them today too!

 

[Gasmk1]

I had a phone call from employment agency saying big company wants contract labour for servicing they were paying £18 per boiler service if other appliances £18 each if gas safety cert req £18 you get 8 to 10 jobs per day. Told them not worth my while.

 

[markadams]

they charge the customer a monthly fee for servicing and repair.

I do work for corgi home plan which is the same sort of thing but they seemed far more professional from the start.

[markadams]

Yes, I have always found them very professional and good to work for, any queries have been resolved quickly and professionally.

I would recommend them if you are looking for a little extra work.

set rates or your own rates

 

[markadams]

they pay £45 per hour (more for out of hours) they add 15% to materials, nice and easy system for booking jobs.

you get many jobs and just gas is it ?

 

[tommy1712]

£18 no chance lol I would rather sit at home instead lol or change a set of taps.
£40 and getting it the right area. I won't rush for anyone tho

 

[Gasmk1]

That is what I said also 8 to 10 jobs a day means that you cannot be doing a full service and will be just like BG an excercise in fga usage

 

[tommy1712]

That's fine with me just pay my money and I'll get the van charger for the Anton lol

 

[Fowlersrs]

Agencies down this way are trying to flog council contract services for £18 a chop. They then proceeded to tell me you had to commit to 5 working days for them. Didn't add up to me

 

[tommy1712]

If they tried to offer me that I would laugh them off the phone

I just got the same email, called them on 3 of their numbers no answer, went on to their customer page to sign up and noticed there is no security when it asks for bank details.

Sounds very dodgy.

 

[jtsplumbing]

That's good want bank details just to apply, Fill in form and put you want £80 pr Hr
.
CORGI insurance did a bit with them couldn't get along with system involved a lot of running around and you don't get paid for that, only time on site

 

[markadams]

Anyone had any more information about this yet?

 

[tommy1712]

I spoke to him yesterday and tbh it sounded ok I was pushing for what I want ph he said he would see what he can do

 

[markadams]

how much did they offer and what are you hoping for?

 

[tommy1712]

Anyone heard back from them?

 

[jtsplumbing]

Anyone heard back from them?

Your Proberly asking for more than they want to pay, will expect you to cover all costs, materials on your account, don't get anything for all the running around and want to pay you £18 pr hr all inclusive, but only for time on site.

 

[tommy1712]

I got there terms and offer through won't talk money on a open forum but I am not to keen on there part that if a problem is miss diagnosed they won't pay for the part. Well what about when there is multiple things wrong

Then your going to loose money !! Like I said all materials on your account, Had this same problem with CORGI Insurance all the risk is on you NOT them, and I bet they wont pay for your extra time spent on the job.

 

[tommy1712]

That's what I need to find out and who stipulates how long each job should take??? As we all know this is simply not the case.

Eg last week I had a leak on a ideal isar horrible little boiler, I changed the seals on the hydro block and plate to plate, all was well then a day later it starts again so I changed the hydro block and all the seals. Job done (I hope) well that was just a start small and work ya way up approach.
This needs to be answered how they would handle and pay

ALL of these people intend to make more money out of you then you make out of them!
