The going rates about 75p per item or less these days that's why we avoid it if we can. We only offer it as part of another service. ie landlords

its easy money but its hard to come by as every man and his redundant dog has opted to re qual as a PAT tester!! no harm in that like but drives costs down!

Nice one!

One of my clients who runs a couple of hair "salons" gave me a flyer offering cheap PAT testing someone had put through his door. It was one of those click and go Vista print jobs.

Strange pricing policy.

85p per item

£9 for ten

£120 for 100

So the more you had done the less you save?!?!?!?!

lolololo

I've no idea now, this was about 18months ago.
Can't even remember what he called him self... Probably Pat think he might have been a postman during the day!!
All I can remember was the pricing and the naff flyer & business card that was like a template for a carpenter or something.
