happened to me a couple of months back, not as sophisticated as that though, did some guys house, got paid. next morning knock on my door 8am it was my customer, very rudely asking me do you know anything about some drunk guy demanding payment for the windows last night? (he thought i was in on it) he wasnt in his wife answered the door.
i said why would i do that, you paid there and then!
i asked did you call the police?
no i wanted to see you first to see if you knew anything about it!
he eventually left. afterwards i thought you cheeky git, accusing me of that!
dropped him after that, never liked the guy anyway
had another polski windy turn up at another custies house to try and do the windows, but my eagle eyed custie sent him packing when he realised he i wasnt due yet.
-
Happend yrs ago to me never lost any dolla
was old windies lacky taking the pee sent his door in e got 6 months bird
-
I dont think any of our customers would fall for that, as we all wear logo'd uniforms and each customers has a window cleaner assigned to them, so they know there window cleaners face.
-
We have uniforms. I reckon I'd still get my money either way. We are moving away from cash though. Internet banking is the way to go. Direct debits would be the best way but it's expensive to set up.
-
Like they said at the end, it was the custy who was scammed not the windy.
-
had this happen to me some years ago, the custys now know that only me collects payments. if the people are in i would get paid while i was still on their property not before like in the program or after im half way down the street
-
Had that once, 'some guy with a pram had a book and everything, told me you were ill' the custy said.
Did he know how much it was, or my name I asked.
'No I told HIM.'
Well you've been had then sorry I said
And I made sure I still got paid.
-
just been thinking about this, the customers are obviously new. so wouldnt these cleaners knock like the hustler and ask the same question again, not clean the windows first then ask for payment.
if they were current custies, then the hustler would have to know in advance the ones to knock?
correct me if im wrong?
