| Re: Has anyone else had trouble with Topps lately | | Ah right, I see how it looks but I don't work for them. Another tiler told me about these forums today, said they had some good advice etc. I mainly use Topps and I'm in there almost every day, so I'm pretty clued up on them that's all. Sorry if it looked like I was advertising them or anything, I just thought I was helping... | | |

| Re: Has anyone else had trouble with Topps lately | | I applied for two accounts on the same day.
One was at the Tile Clearance Centre, the other at Topps. IIAC they are both Trade Saver cards.
The Tile Clearance Centre turned me down because I had not provided them with enough information - filled out the form properly etc???? Work that one out.
Topps approved me, despite my only having one invoice with the company name on it, as opposed to 2 as requested. I received the card and the PIN in the last few days.
Both outlets were in Plymouth, about 400 yards from each other. | | |

Confusion amondo!!!
Personally cash is best![/quote]10 year guarantee is the old packaging Dave, after 1st Sept all products are 25years, except Topps who give a lifetime guarantee....Gaz |

| Re: Has anyone else had trouble with Topps lately | | Mayb e a trade discount card is the way forward then. I asked if there was trade discount but I just got a grunt as a response...
I generally only use topps if Im desperate, I find I get much more help from my local merchants. They tend to do anything for you when you use them all the time. | | |

| Re: Has anyone else had trouble with Topps lately | | We don't have anything as modern as a card at the Topps up here. They just have a list of trade accounts on a piece of paper. If you are on it you get the discount, if you aren't, you don't! |
