at which point the whole forum runs out of sympathy.
A bit harsh Biff.
You'll find members advising that recommendation is the best way forward when choosing tradesmen.
In this case clearly it wasn't a good recommendation.
The guy came recommended ,NICEIC registered (allegedly) and cheaper.
Can't really blame the OP for that.
However at least the OP has enough common sense to see shoddy work and has asked for advice on an electricians advice forum.
My advice for what it is worth would be to take your photos and possibly more to your local BC office and don't pay out another penny to these guys.
might be better to cut your losses and get different contractors in altogether.
Most decent contractors from any trade can provide references and with enough notice will be able to show you previous work or even work in progress.
Hindsight is always 20/20 most people just go with a recommendation from someone they trust.
