    Default Anyone use Trades-Direct? Are they reliable?

    Hi, about to place an order with trades-direct.co.uk but their phone lines are supposedly down today and no reply to E-mail yet which rings alarm bells

    It's a small order below the credit card protection limit so don't want to place it and find they've gone bust!

    Anyone deal with them regularly? Are they reliable?

    Thanks

    Giles

    Thanks for the comments.

    Looking closer at their website it refers to phone lines back Thursday which is what I read but missed the 10th March part !!!

    Definitely a goner

    That will teach me to click straight through from a product search!

    Anyone know where I can get a couple of bags of Ultraplan Renovation and a keg of Mapegum 5kg at a sensible price?
