[QUOTE="boltonsparky, post: 308591, member: 4678"] Not worth the hassle people like that, it's a fair price (cheap in fact), just point them in the direction of homeserve or the likes of who would charge at least double what you did, that or point them in the direction of the local unqualified electrician who would have charged half, not fixed the actual fault, bodged it up to get it working again and no doubt made the installation dangerous at the same time, at least the customer would have saved a few quid though! Wish people would realise the costs involved with running a business, most think it's just you turning up and that money goes straight into your pocket, not that you've a van to pay for, vehicle and business insurances, fuel to put into your van, tax to pay on both your income and vehicle, tools to buy and maintenance/calibration of those tools, ever changing qualifications and the courses required to keep upto date with them etc etc. Explaining all this to mardy retarded customers usually shuts them up i find. Rant over :Salute [/QUOTE]
