is it true that if your not gas safe, it is illegal to display the logo on media material?.

Yes as said the logo you have to use is the black background with the yellow triangle. Just had an issue with this as some adverts in a local paper were using the yellow triangle with no black background. Gas safe emailed me to inform me that this was in breech,( they must check all adverts in every paper ) and gave me 30 days to amend or else !
So i had to get in contact with the paper and inform them that they were using the wrong logo in peoples adverts including mine, and would they kindly alter it before i got prosecuted !
So be aware and check your adverts cus big brother is watching you.
this is why i am asking as i have seen a website connected to this forum and they are not gas safe but are displaying the logo?.If youre not GSR it is illegal to use the logo. Unqualified builders & contractors etc were using the logo on leaflets & adverts giving the impression they were GSR then trying to get round it by saying 'we use a guy who's GSR so we thought we could use it'. If you are a contractor or builder who uses a GSR company or plumber you can mention that in your advertising but not use the Gas Safe logo.
wouldnt it make more sense if gas safe contacted the papers directly as the mistake is obviously theres not yours and policing the brand is surely gas safes problem not yours
As they obviously scan these forums
