    Re: S’now joke

    have found cycling to couple of the jobs with steep long drives (but too far to go whole way on foot) be a barrel of fun, except when the cables froze so no brakes :s

    Re: I should cocoa!

    to try and?

    i feel it was at the very least a partially valid justification. if the saving insurers made by working this was was passed on thru lower premiums then we would all be happy.

    so on a flipside dr dill, your saying regardless of situation you would rather force a client, be they customer or insurer into HAVING a callout.

    The ramifications of this, assuming you are purely an organisation with no access to source replacement machines/gain referal payments are:

    A: youre out of pocket, because machine is BER cos you do not charge a call out fee

    B: free call out, but you get your money by charging a “diagnosis” fee or hrly rate. which is then questionable practises, so youll be meeting TS anyway

    C: you tie customer down to a call out fee, which they need not have had to pay based on your experience… for you turning up and spinning drum.

    even if you then cut a call-out down to bare costs, your still causing the customer to throw money down the drain, and you havent made a dime.

    So, which brings me back round to ethical practises…

    EDIT.

    also by tying customer down to a callout for a probable BER, do others feel that customers will feel more inclined to shell out for the repair as theyve already wasted £30 on a callout, might as well spend another 100 and get it fixed, in for a penny… etc

    Re: URGENT- new belling xou66f – no fan action (element fan)

    was a stuck fan.

    am kicking myself i didnt check the front impeller, merely span the rear part of the motor and assumed it was ok.

    Re: Are IKEA cookers any good, or SMEG?

    i personally would stay away from smegs, they are all style over quality.

    especially for the price they are.
