Re: Connect delivery charges
Connect seems to have woken up to the increased competition they’ve been getting recently. I got a phone call today from a nice young lady called Amy who asked me why I’ve been spending less with them over the last year or so, so I told her that Qualtex are, in general, much cheaper and give an excellent personal service.
She told me they’ve taken on six new account managers [including her] to look after their smaller clients, who they must have noticed have been spending less recently. She knew exactly how much I’ve spent each month this year and last and said I should find that the prices I’m quoted should start coming down.
I mentioned about how their trade prices are very often higher than the manufacturers’ retail prices but she didn’t pass comment on that one.
It’ll be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks.
