Mitie must be the worst cleaning company around if the idiot who cleans my local Coop store is anything to go by.

We have been asked countless times by the manageress to clean the windows due to someone important visiting and the Mitie man not calling for ages. I saw him yesterday and he claimed that he has 53 stores to look after each month, less than 2 per day!!!!!

When he'd left the shop even the young lad serving mentioned how poope the windows looked.

The manageress has said constantly that she'd give us the contract at the drop of a hat but her hands are tied.

the are 2 parts to mitie  1 is meant to be crap  the guy who does ours turns up at 6 pm in his little van brushes up and leaves

Brittanias was a national contract anyway Nationwide Window Cleaning had them but lost them a few month ago they did there HQ in Leek Staffordshire.

Mitie also sub out a lot of there work like the job ctrs they sub national to Nationwide also.

If Mitie are poor you want to see ISS standards

It seems everything is going national these days

Ladbrokes is going national also

I cleaned the head offices of Britannia Building Society in Leek, for four years. It is right on my doorstep. I had a cracking relationship with the management & the chief exec commented on more than one occassion how well the windows looked.

I lost it to the monkeys that are cleaning the branches.

I went in there late last year to see if there was anything we could help them with and the windows were shocking.

Fortunately we have moved onwards and upwards!
