Re: They dont build em like that anymore – Part 20
That looks like the one my parents had back in the 1960’s my old man used to give me a thick ear for trying to poke my fingers in the rollers, mind you it was ok to beat your kids in those days 😀 .

Re: Zanussi Guarantee ZWF 1207
Lastest update ,Zanussi phoned her back this afternoon and said even though its out of warranty they’ll call on tuesday and carry out the repair for her.Thats nice of them 😉
Re: Zanussi Guarantee ZWF 1207
Hi Cab, yep she phoned Zanussi and they have told her its one year.
The Tub assembly alone is £155 without labour, outrageous.Re: Whats the most annoying thing customers do?
Having read some of the previous pages i was reminded of a call i had a long time ago,customer requested i call to look at her washing machine,ok says i,ill be along first thing in the morning.
So on time i arrive to be led into the Kitchen(makes a change from the upstairs bathroom).Customer asks me to mind the new quarry stone floor she had laid last week(you know whats coming next)she tells me the machine won’t spin,so i go to pull the machine out and not a hope in hell.I politely explain to her that she has to get the builder back because her floor level is now,wait for it,nearly two and a half inches higher so removal of her machine was impossible from under the worktop.I explained that when the floor or worktop was removed i could get the machine out and said goodbye trying to keep a straight face 😆
To this day i dont know what happened because she did’nt phone back.
Now this one got my goat yesterday,an employee of a local firm that only do refridgeration phoned me to say his wm would’nt drain the water properly “what could be the problem be” he asked, after i explained the normal possabilities ie pump,blockage ect he asked what my charges were £40 i say plus parts if you need them and no vat(im not registered anymore)to which he replied but you can look at it for nothing and i can think about it,plus you can give us a bit of discount as well.When i asked the chap if he worked for nothing he replied certainly not our call out is £65 8O,im still waiting for him to book the call :?.Some you win and some you lose.Re: Worst Week Ever
LJ don’t worry, if a tenant leaves coins or bra wires is the favourite the letting agent is soon made aware.
Why is it the tenant always blames the machine,strange one that. 😀
But thanks for the info,who knows it might all change next week,ya never know.Re: Worst Week Ever
Thanks LJ,i already cover there h/heath,b/hill and worthing branches.Problem is the further a field i go the higher the cost to landlords.
Some of which dont want to pay a call out charge.Im in the process of chasing invoices from two months ago as it is,and i do believe another chap locally covers there Crawley and Horsham branches all ready.
Talking to the girls at Qualtex some engineers around the country are busy and some are’nt.Its a situation that nobody will ever to be able to explain.The Twilight zone strikes again.Re: Worst Week Ever
Just a mention its quiet in sussex,bl***y quiet is an under statement.Mowed the grass this afternoon.Hang on ive got one to do tomorrow,i can have beans on toast this week. 😀
