..........Quoted £20 today to clean this house. She said "oh no, thats way to much. The other window cleaner was cheaper but he only came once & has never returned." I asked her how much he charged her. "£10" she said. "Well he proberbly under-priced and thats why he ain't be back" i said. It was a big house but some people just want it done for F*** All.

I have a strict pricing policy, if they think its too much then they can go and jump.
a lot of these customers think window cleaners are below them!
