not exactly but obviously their biggest ever purchase and have expectations way beyond what a basic cuccina dishwasher can provide and do not have the inteligence to understand the concept of a start button! Have been verbally abusive to my telephone staff and me, accused me of wasting their time and that they had better things to do (like what exactly I was eager to ask?) than wait for me to turn up. like I dont have better things to do than sit on their filthy kitchen floor for hours, not getting paid as its a no fault found and have as much chance of them paying me as Arsenal have of winning a trophy. 😈 😈

Although people like that always seem to chase more don’t they? “i cant wait all afternoon coz i got a doctors appointment” or “The bains ill and i got to pick it up from school” or “Me mams just ‘ad major (it’s always major) surgery and needs lookin after so need to know when he’s commin”
Of course it’s all your fault too and they think you get paid for every second of contact made and time your there.

nail hit firmly on head there Nigel!

She has now canceled job and says she wants another company to call instead. :tup:

All joking aside there was always something really odd about Haverhill ,it seemed to have an identity crisis …

well, we covered Haverhill for MFI and oddly had very few issues with customers and found them very easy to book appointments as they all were always in. No “well I am here until 9 then back at 11.30, going out at 12….blah blah” nonsence. I guess there was not much work around for anyone to do and most had moved from London in search of cheap property. Last time I parked in the town centre the pay and display rate was 20p for an 3 hours!
Now days its only the odd smeg job or chargeable MFI we do there and to tell the truth its a pain to drive out there. Also, the road from the A 11 is littered with memorials for dead accident victims, scary!
This customer was a Currys customer, we used to have similar problems in Philco days with curry’s customers so I guess that is the common denominator
