Sorry electricalserv I didn't mean you when I asked if you were called Brian, I meant NWSparky1. Brian or Bill I think One is the Manager for the North electricians and the other is his trusted side-kick.
As for picking up the pieces NWSparky1 when electricians leave the company thats probably because the previous electrician didn't complete the job as he did not have the parts or stock as it had not been delivered.
Trust me I'm going to do some digging and I'll find as many people as I can to bring court action against this firm. I'm going to get my accountant to dig up the financial records for previous years.
I going to report my greivences with the NICEIC.
I,m going to complain with a letter to my local MP as this is a government funded initiative and public money is not being paid out to those who carry out the work.
I,m going to report this firm to watchdog on the BBC.
Im going to go to the local newspapers ad national newspapers to make the public aware of this.
I,m going to take this to an emloyment tribuneral.
I'm going to contact the Tax office.
I'm going to do quite a lot so at least I'll be busy.

I'll not let this one go. A trip to Colwyn Bay head office next week too.

Malcolm,

I think you need to read doctordus's first post on this thread, he states he has worked for them and got paid nothing. Whilst I agree with you its not the given thing to name people and this should be retracted by editing. I think his point is that these guys are not going to get paid. the manner in delivery is understandable, for me anyway.

The actual ins and outs of this thread are startling. Question is has anyone done anything about this or are they just letting off steam. I'd be reporting them to everyone i could had they treated me that way....
 
Doctordus I can only sincerely apologise as I read your post as if your were the company and only after appollo (thank you) directed me to your OP did I see that you were a sinned against rather than a sinner.

I can only say that the term mouth and foot come into mind, and once more sincerely apologise for mistaking you doctordus as a company representative.
 
just like me malcolm, always putting my mouth into operation before engaging brain. LOL.
 
I happen to have seen an instal these clowns did this week, our company got the job because they done such a bad one... The plumber from our place couldnt understand why the pipe work in the loft had 20 more elbows than it should have and laughed at the state of the flue that had let alot of rainwater in. And the customer kicked the 'electrician' out because he was convinced he didnt have a clue what he was doing. Hes currently reportin this firm to whoever he can think of. Papers etc. Oh and neither of the plumbers had gas tickets
 
Freedom of speech I have no problem with, but PLEASE DO NOT NAME NAMES on the forum as it could get messy for everyone, including EF.

Thank you.
 
I must laugh Liam B as I think I Know which plumbing job you are on about. I was called to go to this property with another spark after the Guy had kicked the other spark out. When I arrived British gas, Transco, The Health and Safety Exec were all there and me and the other spark refused to take the job on as it was a total farce. It was in Newcastle.
I apologise on my earlier threads foe mentioning names - I respect the right of other peoples privacy and I apologise.

I was the first spark to turn up at this job in Newcastle...he didnt kick me out, I left after discussions with my boss. I was originally supposed to go move some wiring for the plumbers. I said I would wire the Y plan as well seeing as I was there. The customer refused to let me work past 7pm, would not let the plumbers put a plug on the boiler flying lead and was generally an obmoxious ****. Seeing as I never got there until 3.30pm, there was no guarantee that I wouldve been finished for 7 pm. He was offered space heaters or me working later than 7pm, but the guys carer wouldnt have it.
Please dont slag me off for not knowing what I am doing before you know the facts and not what the customer told you.
