Ronnie

Went and priced up a couple of commercial jobs this week, not big ones but both times I was told the price of the other people quoting!!.

I seem to be able to get the information out of clients, without too much effort.

I am sure all I said on one was 'how much have you been quoted' and on the other i'd barely finished saying, 'so you've had another price' and they told me straight out.

Ask them!!

Rob ;D

Under the "freedom of information act" the council has to tell you how they have spent your council tax so ask them.

Or you could just simply ask- "What am I up against?"
