Had one this week

"oh i really need a window cleaner can you come round please"
"no prob"

Went round, 30 mile round trip "will it be a regular thing?"
"oh yes definatly"
"it will be £x amount"
"oh thats excellent"
"right well we're letting it as a holiday home soon so ill give you a call in april for the first clean and then let you know as and when its needed"

My face must of been a picture,  ::) down little lanes, wasted about an hour of my time.

I clean one of those offices belonging to a 'No Win, No Fee' solicitors; and one of those guys was telling me that 'law' would be great if it wasn't for the customers.

Even white-collar-workers get messed about by them, but my advice is to be extremely clear with your terms and conditions when quoting.
