“Booked an appt for the following day and was given a time slot . Called the next day two thirds through the appt window to get an estimated time and was told should be near 5pm. Then got a call at 4.50 to say they weren't coming and would come the next day. I explained that we've got a baby and no heating, and had been given a time, but was still just told they'd come tomorrow . Cancelled the appointment and went with someone else.”

“Do not believe website or local adverts. They do not cover large parts of West Yorkshire, despite the website showing the whole of England”

So now no heating for another 36 hrs as it's the weekend!! Needless to say we said forget it!!!!”

“WORST COMPANY EVER took 2 days off to get some simple plumbing done. Day one was a no show. Day 2 after a no show again, I called in again, for about the 7 time, and was told as I wanted to complain she was going to cancel my appointment. WORST COMPANY WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE WORST EXPERIENCE”

“Engineer came out to service a boiler, told the tenants that the boiler was unsafe to use due to lack of service and high CO readings. 3 days later still had no contact from the company to let me know this only when the tenants contacted us did we find out. Do not use this company, poor service, terrible communication, expensive and slow. Could not say a good word about them.”

“Very poor. Do not use this company. I called them at 10 this morning and asked for a central heating engineer. Picked a slot between 11 and 2. Was told I would receive a call before that time to advise when engineer coming. Called at 12.30, concerned I had not heard from anyone. Was advised that engineer would call half an hour before arrival time. At 1.30 I got a call to advise that the engineer had been delayed until MONDAY!!! Very poor. Fortunately I had a call back arranged with British Gas, and they are now coming before 6. WASTE OF TIME”

“Terrible. Waited until the end of the delivery slot after calling the number for an emergency call out. Received no contact from the engineer or the company. Called the company to be told that the engineer was held and would not come today. Concerned as we have already had to hand over payment details, which would not do with hindsight. It is an expensive company and I would expect a reliable service”

“Booked an appointment with a timeslot. Just before the period was due to end they called to let me know that "their engineer had been delayed". Fact that I'd taken time off work didn't seem to register.”

“The site assessment visit seemed positive, lots of advice on the possibilities of correcting our plumbing and heating issues. No estimate for works given as was complicated and needed thought and planning. Was told that I would be contacted in a couple of days. Paid my £30, waited for 'quote' . That was 12 days ago. Feel cheated and let down. What exactly did I pay for?”

“Initial visit was swift on a Monday evening. Informed needed a lot of repair circa £800 on immersion heater. Had to ring to chase parts on the Tuesday. They came back to me and I gave the go ahead for parts. Informed of Friday repair. Friday came no sign and had to ring only to be told engineer wasn't coming and would need to do next week. I'm now a week without hot water. Asked if I could try and get a Saturday visit the next day and after much debate and left feeling like an inconvenience they agreed. I was called the Saturday morning to be told parts hadn't actually arrived!!! Wouldn't arrive until the following Friday?? Seemed a bit of a coincidence however. How were the initial planned visits going to repair the problem so?? Just called today Wednesday to check status....advised parts should be here this Saturday for job. I just hope this Saturday the repairs will be completed and job finished. Have a feeling I will be hearing other excuses that day. Really poor customer service and I will be advising friends and family the same. If it was my business I would be bending over backwards to keep the customer in the loop and express courier parts to amend for the initial inconvenience.”

“Booked a job twice with this company and both times they cancelled last minute. Had a 12-4 time slot today, didn't hear anything so called the company at half 4 and they said we will be with you by 6. Then get a phone call at 5 to say won't be coming at all. Careless attitude on the phone. save yourself the time and book a company that will actually show up!”

“Having suffered a fire that had meant damage to the hot water tank I asked for an emergency appointment as we had no water and no central heating. I was told someone would be out between 10 and 1, at 12 o'clock I received a call to say unfortunately the plumber was running late and would be with me between 2 and 6. At 5pm I rang to find out when they would arrive. The person I spoke to could not answer partly because she could not hear most of the conversation because of noise in the background. At5.30 I got a phone call to say their workman would not be attending but could come tomorrow afternoon. GREAT EMERGENCY SERVICE. I now have another night in a hotel, bid not even get an apology”

“I am writing following some work which was completed at my property yesterday 21/03/2016 at 1530-1700. The fault that I needed an engineer to fix was a toilet that kept running. This was a quick job and should have taken between 30-45 minutes. This took the plumber 90 minutes. The plumber was back and forth to his van numerous times, looking for the part he needed. I was told he didn't have it in his van so he would need to order it and then come back. As he was writing the receipt he found the part he needed then proceeded to fix the fault! Once this was done he spent 10 minutes writing the receipt. I find this is very unfair considering that I ended up paying £230 for a minor job that needed doing. I have spoken to Michelle the relsolutions manager this morning, I was told to put it in writing. I didn't find the response I got very efficient from her or customer focused. I have tried to stop the payment coming out of my bank but understand this had already been done. After reading reviews online I can see that this appears to be a regular occurrence with plumbing force and I do not hold out much hope that my complaint will be taken seriously or resolved in a satisfactory way.”
