i get really p***ed off when you give a quote and you hear nothing from it usually they say "we ring you back later on" and they dont reply

i just been to price a job last night in wigan and the customer said ill ring you back i ve been reading a similar post on here a few weeks ago and i took advice on ringing back to see whether i had to job or not and guess what they dont answer

anyone else have the same problem

Happens alot all just the way things r in life

Was very gud of u to ring back

My partner has given many quotes over the years and never heard back even when we thought we had it

but we nver persued it 1 of our other little down falls.

Try again later maybe they were at work or not in

All the best

nice one raja ill try later but i dont want to seem pushy end of the day im a bit desperate for work but i dont want to give that impression though

i personally think it is polite if a customer rings up even if you havent got the job

doesn't happen that often to me but only 3 weeks ago i was on a job with two other tiler mates and i took call,7 yd splash,5 sockets so seemed handy,a lot of competition for work lately so went in at £170 i'll ring you tonight he said! that was a thursday.My buddies laughed and said i was too cheap.I rang the man on the monday,my first follow up and had the phone on loud speaker so my mates could hear,he apologised for not contacting and said he got someone cheaper.at least he was honest.
