Bill's Gutters - don't bother

Recommended Posts

We received a leaflet in through our door by "Bill's Gutters" - oh good, we thought - as we needed someone to come and fix a drainpipe.


I called to book them and waited in on Thursday morning. No one turned up and I received no phone call to say they weren't coming. When I finally managed to get hold of them he told me the guy who was coming had broken his ankle - I'm sorry for the guy if this was true, but a phone call to let me know he wouldn't be able to attend would have been nice.


I rearranged for this morning - I sent a text to check he was definitely coming, I received one back saying "be with you in 10 mins"......I'm still waiting 5 & 1/2 hours later!!! No phone call, no text, and not answering calls.


Why would they have gone to the bother and cost of printing leaflets and delivering them, when clearly they don't actually want any work?? I'm completely baffled?

    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
    • To be fair, anything which waylays someone on their way to Palma Nova or Lloret de Mar from spending even more pre-flight time in Spoon's surely has some merit? I think losing a few quid on a litre of Bacardi and 200 Benson & Hedges Gold seems a reasonable price for society to pay. ,
