Seriously guys, whats the problem in advertising prices 'from'  Companies do it all the time even on tv.

Its like saying 'burgers from 99p' read what that means, and it is for meat only, and if you want cheese thats another 20p. No-one bats an eyelid cos there's nothing wrong with it :

You should have been in Financial Services Colin, the rewards are much greater and far less risk of being collared.

And bailed out with our money if it all goes wrong.

I always think you are on dodgy ground if you advertise one price and then quote another - even if it is a minimum cleaning charge.

I saw a leaflet recently from another carpet cleaner that was headed in huge bold lettering "FREE Carpet Cleaning" with no gimmicks, no hidden costs, honesty blah blah blah.

The deal was basically that if you had a couple of rooms cleaned you got another one for free. Already not exactly living up to the "FREE carpet cleaning" billing it was given.

Not so bad, but right at the end in the small print after all the promises on the leaflet it stated a minimum cleaning charge of £65. No hidden costs or gimmicks my ar*e!

That is the kind of thing that really winds me up.

That is the kind of thing that really winds me up.

thing is though it's just one of those things that works. what winds me up is someone who expects free carpet cleaning with no gimmicks :p

if the customer would have chosen them based on their ability to clean i'm sure more people would focus on this, however customers like to think they've got a deal some reason even if it's a deal that ends up the same price. imo the fault here lies with the customer and not the cleaner.

of course being sneaky and taking advantage is bad though but that's something else

[Mr Dvae]

just agree to do the job , tell that you're fully booked so it'll have 2 be after xmas

[Mike Halliday]

Colin I've just looked at your website and it is Quite clear that you don't get a full clean for £28 she obviously just glanced at the prices and saw 'single oven £28'

but you need to change your minimum charge at the bottom it still says £35.

on a side note my wife mentioned she had difficulty reading your web pages (as she has a sort of colour blindness) and the background colour made it hard. she says her problem is quite common so it might be worth looking into

With regards to false adverising.A guy near me advertises HALF PRICE CARPET CLEANING and FREE STAINGUARD,now as i understand it Polyprops cant take a stainguard so is he telling clients this or just putting water down on PP carpets

I've been trying for months to change it and eventually I've decided to take it off air, but BT have said it'll remain for a while. I am having a new web site built at the moment which should be up and running in less than a month....

Thanks for all your comments.... Sorry to disappoint and not show a picture of a woman with no clothes on fellas
