I had one of these. It was Brendan's neighbour. Initially, they wanted the con. roof cleaned and we agreed on a two monthly windowclean for £10. Just a small semi. Anyway, on receipt of the text to say I'd be round tomorrow I got one back saying hubby had lost his job. When I mentioned this to Brendan, he said it wasn't true - that he hadn't lost his job.

But... this person had only been a customer for three cleans, so perhaps not a fair comparison.

I went for number 4 because there wasn't an option for egg their windows and kick their garden gate in.  ;D ;D

you dont give the option which offers the customer what they want.
If they say "can you leave it this month" I leave it this month and return next.

First rule, Always listen.   ;D

(Anyway, who in their right mind would consider moving to MK?)

I'd just say i was sorry and to give me a bell when they wanted them cleaning again.
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go
