oftec logo on name headers

[lame plumber]

Hi just a thought but could you do an oftec registered logo alongside peoples names in the same way we have gas safe registered. Also hetas would offer those asking questions the knowledge they are dealing with someone would should have an idea about what they are saying. Oftec and hetas are trade organisations as well but only because those systems don't kill as many people, because less people use solid fuel and oil are they regarded as lower cast organisations by the government and public. Case in hand an oftec engineer can't cut off someones boiler if its lethal as they have no rights in the law to do so, still kills as well as a gas boiler leaking fumes!!!!!!!! Back to my original point logo us up alongside gas safe reg to let others know we might know!:smile:

I think that's a good point, what about it?

 

[SimonG]

Very good point, bring em on

 

[Dotty]

not as easy to check unless we scan and forward our registration cards!

 

[SimonG]

Can be checked on oftec website, I know my details are on there cos I've seen them.

 

[Dotty]

Mine aren't, the company is.

 

[SimonG]

Mine aren't, the company is.

Can you not go into the company and look at the registered techs? We have 4 but two of em are expired.

 

[SimonG]

Scratch that they've changed the web site

 

[Dotty]

You see what I mean Simon?

 

[SimonG]

Aye, I had to go into the company notification side to list them out, but can't print the screen to be able to drop it into a post.

 

[lame plumber]

you can always base your indoctrination question on the last oftec mag/email news letter or oftec price list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

[PlumbBobBob]

then the person asking has to be oftec and have the mag/newsletter to hand

 

[Dotty]

Which is why I suggested a scan of your oftec card!

 

[lame plumber]

much the same as doing the gas safe proof having to hunt for my password and find my name/number.

 

[SimonG]

Hows this

 

[Dotty]

Awful.

 

[SimonG]

Took a photo of me card and tried to load the piccie, back to the drawing board

 

[Orry Clayton]

it would be a good idea, but unlike gas other fuels don't just have one scheme. Maybe in a few years??

 

[REDSAW]

by the success of the thread...
nah! leave it for now.lol.

I may be daft but the only oil registration scheme that the government supports I know of is oftec and likewise for hetas, but I do know the sparkies have many choices. I presume redsaw is gas only then?

 

[Dannypipe]

I think its a good idea personally!! How much work is involved in implementing it?

 

[SimonG]

I don't think my lack of being able to post a picture of my oftec card cause for not going for this. Unless we perceive oil as less important or we think the forum should be gas only?

[REDSAW]

[SimonG]

Yellow background, black brush?

 

[Dannypipe]

I don't think he's keen lads!!

 

[SimonG]

LOL!!

I don't think he's keen lads!!

Gas only it is then, shame.

 

[Dannypipe]

Well I'm OFTEC registered and proud of it. So there.

 

[Dotty]

I'm Oftec too! And apparently I'm one of a handful of guys in the uk with the commercial ticket! So there too!

 

[REDSAW]

wow!.

you commercial then croppie?

 

[Dotty]

Apparently lol

 

[PlumbBobBob]

two more posts and the fireworks start lol

 

[peteheat]

How about checking the websites of those who are registered?

Most people include logos of the schemes they are registered with.

another could be the Renewable Energy Installers academy

 

[REDSAW]

how about a blue peter badge?

 

[Gray0689]

There you go lmao
