in the last month i have used 2 companies, the first didn't even get out of the gate after saying they would start the following week..... in his words "sorry mate I have a load of s£$t going on. the second one managed to get me £300 of work in three days for which i was paying 2 x cleans. i wanted a total of £1000 work so £2000 for him. he gave up after the 3rd day. apparently the area is too tough and his staff are unreliable!!!
resigned to doing it myself am sick to the back teeth of "canvassers" promising this and that and not delivering!!

Name and shame
not in my interest to name and shame, the guy still has all the addresses for £300 of work i have taken and I have someone working it, so I dont want to lose that for any reason having spent out.
put it this way though all i did was use the internet to find a canvassing company.
all i would say to anyone on here is unless the "canvasser" comes highly highly recommended i think it is a profession that many just decide to start up and its even easier than a trip to B&Q to buy some ladders and a bucket.
apparently both companies use "teams" of canvassers, the first was clearly a one man band and the second had a "new boy" with him on the second night. a good paying job for a presentable student!!
basically they want it on a plate, near to where they live, dont like to work in the dark or weekends!!!!!
saying that if anyone does ever find anyone decent please post them up on here
