I keep commenting because I keep being asked questions it would be rude not to reply (almost as rude as shouting and swearing in a thread). No shares, no family connections just a heartfelt wish for fair play, very easy to call them, very difficult for them to come on here and defend themselves against such a biased opinion. Well, a rant about Retlaw? Nah, you haven't yet seen me rant about Retlaw nor are you likely to unlike him I have no need, I just point out a few of his imperfections. As for yourself again read my first post:- Quote:

As far as I'm aware anyone can join Accyweb and defend themselves, should the need arise.You say you defend because you seek 'fairplay'?.You don't use a mobility scooter,so I presume you don't have need of Millers "services",so, fairplay .....what do you Base your defence On?? |
Re: What a rip off
As already stated, I do not yet, use a mobility scooter, I expect to in the future, therefore I am one of millers potential customers, if they still exist by then.
You can of course tell anyone what you want about anything, that in turn allows anyone else (including me) to defend what they feel needs defending from the irresponsibility of others. |

Re: What a rip off
I bought a large mobility scooter for my wife when she became ill.
She didn't drive a car so we thought if I was indisposed it would be handy for her to get to the nearest shop half as mile away. Fortunately for me she never had to use it but unfortunately she passed away two years after we got the scooter. A while later I rang Millercare and explained the situation and they came and collected the scooter and asked how much I wanted for it. I'm not greedy and just wanted rid of the memory so I quoted £750 and they happily paid me. No complaints from me there. |
Re: What a rip off
Any company that maintains their own premises, employs staff, pays their public liability insurance, rent, utility bills, employer's NI, taxes and rates, and guarantees their work is bound to be more expensive than a DIY job.
That extra £10 you paid to get the innter tube fitted - is the person who you paid going to declare that to HMRC? Thought not. |

No it isn't, it's a company charging a legitimate price when all taxes and overheads are included. I'm sure we've all either used or been used as part of the black economy, that does not mean a legitimate company can be called a rip off. Time to call the job what it was, a 'foreigner' no way can proper business's compete price wise with them, nor should they be called just because they can't. So ladies and gents, let's put this thread to bed, the vindictive amongst us will always call the true tradesman and any unfortunate soul that happens to point out that the thread shouldn't have been posted in the first place. |
Re: What a rip off
Thanks for all comments on my thread,although some have completely missed the point.It was NOT that the charges would have been more expensive, it was the EXTENT of them.I know (fact)that an inner tube would cost no more than £10 (that is RETAIL not TRADE)..therefore I would have been charged £50 just for a 10min job of fitting it.Anyway I made my point,which I maintain and anyone (IMHO)who think that is NOT a rip off must have money to burn.
Less, I started the thread..so I'LL put it to bed. |

You started it, yes indeed, however it now belongs to the WWW anyone that Googles can read it not just a local website. So far as putting it to bed, not your decision, only the mods can close a thread. We all should think before we post. |
