Worst merchant

[rpm]

Anyone been to that small independent plumbers merchants in Isleworth run by Indians, went in there a couple of times as it was right next to a job I was doing. The bloke serving makes you find what you want in a toolstation catalogue as he doesn't know the names of fttings.

Wonder if he gets the price to charge you from there to lol

Its always more expensive than the catalogue, wouldn't be surprised if that's where he buys his stock from.

Well I must admit the best merchants locally to me is a plumbcenter. It's North Sheilds and the staff are fantastic. I have all my parcels delivered and collected from there I never have an issue and *most prices are awesome. I do treat them civil though and take the odd butty and Xmas tip in

There are 6 other bumbs local and they are pretty much as described

I use Yeovil Plumb Center almost exclusively. The staff are great and very knowledgeable.

Another for Plumb Center. I have visited about 6 branches. All balls to the brim.

Would have asked kindly to speak to woolsey accounts and simply tell them to close my account . We were once shafted by Pts . They overcharged grand or so in fittings one month. We used different branch - terms were not set. £7 for 28mm straight. Asked area rep to sort it .... He didn't. Paid account excluding what we were owed.

Told them where to go. Few letters few threats and that was it. Till we did about £5k of work in a Travis branch. - they wouldn't pay...... We got paid they still owed money. Not going there again

plumbase industrial in portsmouth,, they only have one bloke in there and he is a village.you end up going and picking your own fittings or wait for an hour while he looks at the computer screen finding the location of the fittings you want..
