Re: Is the end of our world nigh..?
I have a shop and recon washers.I do very few repairs,just recon and sell.The first few years got better and better then the last couple of years we have just managed to make a living and pay bills.This year however has been our best year.It used to be why buy secondhand when you can get new for 150 pounds,but something has changed.People have got wise to the cheap offers.Lots of people have said they had a recon off me and later gave to their kids and its still working and got a new machine for themselves and it packed in after a year.
Repairs may be a different matter but on sales i am now selling machines as i am doing one,a year ago i had a shop full.
I have dropped prices but this is great.I got to the point i was going to pack it in and now think the future is brightRe: Anyone know anything about NVQ levels for our trade
Got NVQ about 8 years ago at Charles Keane College Leicester ,not sure if it is still running
Re: Bosch
Error code is door not shut,but it is and does lock, so is it program fault.Machine is new
Re: how to cover this
They rang back again and said double checked pipes and still the same and still foaming out of soap drawer.
I replied if they cant get it sorted i will call monday
They say they use tablets in drawer and is still hot on rinse.
Why would they pay someone to fit a pump without ringing me first,and now ring me for this.
I am qualified and how can it be right that someone works on a machine that is under my guarantee and expect me to then put it right.
What bothers me is not actually the time or the repair because i know all about good customer relations,and i normally do calls for free if a customer has bought from me.It is the bigger picture like how far is far for a repair .where is the cut off point for someone having moved.I have some landlords from London collect from me but they agree on the guarantee that if a repair is needed they bring backIt has never hapened but London is 100 miles away.What if someone moves from local to 100 miles.
Next is someone else working on a machine under my guarantee.This surely should void a guarantee.
I know of people repairing machines in this area fitting second hand parts.Well i recon wm and wma machines and as an example i fit new interlocks on every one.Why would i have to replace timer if someone had fitted a second hand interlock and blown timer.
Sorry for the rant butRe: hotpoint wf240
