out of interest, were they priced at the same value or totally different prices?
what i'm trying to get at is, did they give the same price for every shop regardless of size.
Lose on some, make on others sort of thing.

Ive just rang 30 and secured 7 quotes, but some said they heard nothing, so i rang there head office and they told me they are still using OCS however i think its because they sensed i was going after all of them :) oh well, got 7 who definitely want quotes and about 10 ring backs to speak to managers, might be worth it, might not, some are bit far for a few quid, some only have one window lol, surprising how many have already got a cleaner too!! But thanks for sharing, alot of you will gain work if you are quick, most are open till 6 get on phone now! dont ring in manchester tho!!!

Head office told me that they were still with OCS to save money, im wondering if its an elaborate hoax from someone who lost to OCS to get them back??? Because some new nothing others had got an email others a letter, and head office new nothing...i cant work it out?? Maybe im just paranoid, or head office just thought i was gonna try pick up all of them??? Anyway else rang a round yet??

Maybe the best approach was just to go there in person. Thats what I am going to do pretend I know nothing about the ocs thing and just see how it goes from shop to shop (That makes it sound loads - Wish there were 30 around here - theres 4!).

i wouldnt have time to visit 30 though so ringing was fine, the managers were great they either said yeah we need one, no we dont, those that need one i am visiting asap to quote, but here in manchester/lancashire/cheshire, theres a good few. Good Luck though..

Now I know why I've not heard of them. I've had a look on the web and the nearest one from me is about 12 miles away.  I travel further than that for work but not just to do a shop.  Thanks for posting about it though.

Yeh, a few of the ones i rang are like that and only got 1-2 windows, No thanks!! Hopefully a few will be okay though, i tried to home in on the ones where i work already as i can do them on way home or somethin as they are open till 6, might be something to do through winter when finished at 3-4 go and do a few shops till 5 make a bit extra:)
