Corgi are still at it.

For any of you who are regulars, you'll know that I'm living with my mother in law at the moment (have been for the last two months, while I do up our house).

Anyway, I fitted a new boiler for my mother in law back in 2006, and duly registered it with Corgi.

When I got home for my supper tonight, on the table was a letter from Corgi to my mother in law stating they could provide a service contract for her, looking after her boiler cheaper than BG.

I know we've mentioned this before, but this is the first time it's affected me so personally.

Sally (my mother in law) just laughed when I mentioned it, and said "you look after my boiler" but I can be sure that other clients would have defected.....

Makes me very, very angry.

I have put boilers in for some customers that are landlords. I recently went to a job and the tenant said she had received letters from corgi . She gave me one of the letters stating the customer had a new boiler fitted on such and such a date and did they want a contract with corgi blah blah , goes to show they are using our data which is wrong:hammer:

Seems like everyone is after nicking our work now.One of my valued customers told me last week that they had signed up with the AA for boiler cover because it seemed like a good deal!

They won't stop until they've squeezed out all the small firms and one man bands. Then they can charge what they want.

i do work for corgi, never asked the customer how they signed up to the contract though. Dont agree with what they are doing if this is the case.

Ive been pesterd by CORGI to do contract work for them, knowing how they come by their work i have turned them down, even thougth i have very little work at the moment, I think its a matter of principal, if CORGI were not backstabing us all we might have a better work load! About the AA Ive heard that either CORGI or BG are involved with them ? dare say someone on here will know.

 

[southcoastboile]

I am not gaining by working for them, the company i work for has the contract

 

[Gordon T]

The AA is owned by Centrica as well as BG.
