Here’s yet another site that purports to route out the “Cowboy/Rogue Traders” whilst all the while will recommend any business that ‘pays their annual fee’ 👿
Re: CheckaTrade.com
Well it seems the ASA don’t like them either 😉

Re: CheckaTrade.com
I am being relentlessly chased on both my office phone and my mobile by these characters. 😈 😈
This is an organisation who purports to promote me as a good honest trader, so why don’t they understand that they were recommended to me as well.
The difference is – I don’t have to pay my customers to recommend me.
I am avoiding their calls……… :innocent:Anyone else had dealings with them? Are they usually this persistent?

Re: CheckaTrade.com
Steve,
Conversation goes like this and, you can thank Alex for this tip…
YOU: “Who’s calling please, you name, address, phone number and your supervisor’s name please?
MUPPET: “Why?”
YOU: “Because I am registered with the Telephone Preference Service and by calling me you are liable for a fine of up to £2000 and I want the details to report your practices so that action can be taken against your company”
This is usually followed by “beeeeep” and you never get another call. 😉

:rotfl: Excellent…. I’ll try that!! I didn’t want to be rude to the lady caller but that statement seems to fit the bill perfectly. :violent:
Thanks for that, Ken! (and Alex, of course!!!)
Steve.
