I was with them for 6/7 years, most of there emails were about seminars which they would arrange and want a fee for you to sign up. Then there was news reports of changes in the building industry, and then want more of your money to train you for this. They would sent you a monthly magazine which I never read as I'am Dyslexic which I asked them not to send, this cost you £4.25 as part of you monthly fee. The reason I stayed with FMB was for the accreditation as I had no training in my trades I practised. The other reason was the legal support they offered with the contracts and projects I took on. I'am 63year old and leaned the trades through the years, yes I have made mistakes but none I wasn't prepared to correct even if it costed 1000's. Most of the time I worked through Surveyors and Architects which proved invaluable. A certain project I had in Richmond Surrey where a client changed the design from the plan over 20 times, 9 times on the bath room alone I was required to do this at no extra cost. When things started to get strained the client fired me. I ask FMB for help they gave token support but had no interest, but where still happy to take my monthly fee. I lost £22,000 from about £120,000 of the project. It was the clients neighbours in the street came to my aid. In fact the clients next door neighbour insisted that I did the same job for him and his family. Other persons in the street gave there support and encouragement. This all took place between 2018/19 I left FMB, December 2020
