KeymasterWell this time at least.
The LGH thread was twofold…
One to make the point that LGH are a shower of crooks.
Two to get the point across that the new MFI invoicing routine is a bag of sheite (mispelled deliberately).
Why the fcuk should I do MFI’s bloody admin work for them? And why should I take the hit for any it comes up LGH’s humph not to pay as I truly believe that is their criteria for rejection, “oh we can’t be arsed to pay that one” or “that’s a bit expensive, tell you what let’s not bother paying him”.
Chancers.
So I know Tony Brown will have read it and may even do something about it in fact I’d hazard that he cringed a bit when he read it. If nothing else he knows it’s on the agenda the next time he calls me for something so, mission accomplished.
Thought I’d better explain before you all thought I’d lost the plot and the more tales of LGH woe in there the stronger the case for sacking them is.

Tony Brown must be well aware of this as I had a phone call from Bernie Seaman after I threw my toys out the pram. He mentioned he was not happy regards postings on UKW regards a connection with MFI. He was less than happy when we charged a customer of theirs today.
I intend sending all my MFI invoices via MFI when it comes to their calls. However I’m concerned regards this billing regime as I’ve not seen anything on this.
I noticed Mark Garner has had similar, and he has gone as far as naming names. Be interesting to see if he gets a phone call in the same vein as the one I had.
If they sent details regards a new procedure regards MFI/LGH call handling, could someone send it to me?

KeymasterWe just need to keep rattling the cages, eventually something will shake out.
I note that Bernie didn’t call me. Wonder why? 😈

One thing Bernie Seaman made clear……………………….
There is no means of differentiating LGH calls from the system, and filtering them out. He told me I’m contracted to do ALL their work and must therefore must oblige. He was not best pleased.
So reading what is in the rumour mill, (which to be honest I thought was misplaced, should be in General trade IMO); how are those that are declining LGH work going to be able to manage this, and will they be able to use a threat of witholding labour and succeed.
Interesting.
I’d like to know if there is a legal precedent regards this 3 Month thing.

KeymasterAny invoice issued is valid for six years from that date.
English Law, incontravertable and solid in any court. End of story.
Anything above that is either signed for under the contract, which you have not, or just flannelling.

KeymasterRe: Got What I Wanted
So it turns out that this is all a big mistake!
Invoicing, bar the AIG stuff, is to go to MFI as it always did but Paul Brookes’ letter didn’t exactly make that clear, if anything it muddied the waters. And TB had no idea that this had been done, so it should be sorted. I’ll sort it out in the forums later.

I’ve always sent my MFI insured direct to LGH. Suppose in view of recent circumstances it will be prudent to go through MFI in all cases.
Following my dispute with LGH yesterday, today I spoke to a different operative and he was helpful to the extreme. He explained the normal procedure in such cases and surmised his colleague from the day before failed to follow this.

KeymasterSuitable reply posted, as far as I’m concerned case closed with all resolved.
However Alex, would it come as a shock to know that certain people in LGH read UKW? 😉

Still a bloody shower. Possibly the worst insurers I deal with.
Will copy & paste my earlier posting to the main arena, suppose I ought to.
Engineers don’t get mad though!! 😉
