I haven't you haven't, what does that tell you. Stick with the tried and trusted. If you want work from the internet get your self an optimised website which brings you onto the first page or use google adwords. There are also free advertising sites such as gumtree and adzooks.

cleaners register are a rip off!same as cleaners local and all the others trying to cash in on it!There is such a long list of cleaners on the register with free registration that I don't think paying the massive sum is justified just to have your name highlighted.

They are part of ufindus I had a call the other day and he said that with my membership I`d get a free priority listing on you find us, I asked him if they were part of ufindus he said yes and started telling me how great ufindus is, I then told him I did not want to be associated with ufindus so he then started trying to tell me that they were not part of ufindus...................I took the p out of his sales technique and he hung up  ;D

They just phoned me - told them I've heard a lot of bad press about them and told them to sling their hook.
