Thinking I did well to get 58%. I mentioned it to a work friend.
SHOCK HORROR was his reply. WHY!!!!!
So I cancelled promptly and arranged a local Accrington firm to quote.(15 mins only).
No discounts or special offers he quoted £2400 less than safestyle uk.So I booked them instead.
In the meantime safestyle rang me and offered to alter my original (lowest possible cannot be lowered any more) quote to £3200 less than first agreed.
Amazing . Why could they not have been honest in the first place.
Is it me or does the whole buying process of major items seem a lottery.
Moral is always support your local businesses
That sounds about right, why not support your local businesses, they can't run away
