I had a shocking service from an electrician who was paid in full then his bodge job became evident. He refused to return to do the job he invoiced for. I had to pay again to correct his shoddy workmanship. He's had 6 fake call-outs / time wasting quotes so far. There'll be more next year, 100%!

British Gas would've condemned your boiler & tried to sell you a new one. The scamming thieves tried to do that to me 2 years ago claiming they couldn't get the parts, they could, stock items. Gave em 24 hours to fix it or I'd report em, still going strong today 👍

[@andymate2006]

This happened to one of my clients. Her TV was pixellating and couldn’t get any signal. She called an antenna trades person. They replaced her antenna and charged her $900. She paid and they left. She turned her TV on and still had the same problem. She contacted me as she was at her wits end. I went over there and had a look. I found the problem was a faulty cable from her TV to the wall socket. I replaced the cable and there you go. Problem solved. The cable cost only $15.

[@halfbakedproductions7887]

We once had such a crap wiring job done on our aerial circuitry that you had to keep the main living room TV turned on at the mains permanently, else the signal was poor elsewhere in the house. 20 years on and I still don't understand what they did or how they screwed it up so badly.

And that is why I have become a jack of all trades. I do not believe ANY tradesman. Yes, it has cost me a several thousand pounds to buy all necessary tools and after many hours on KZbin University, I can competently change, fix or amend everything around the house and car. Never paid more then a nominal fee for MOT (20 years old banger), done the entire bathroom including all copper soldering, wall insulation, tiling; fence building, ground work, etc, etc.. I think, I have saved thousands and I am very happy with my skills. I even received a trade card at my local supplier :-)
