Hi All - as per the title, any recommendations in the north east as I don't really want to send the tester via courier !
thanks

Phoned them up today & they want £82+vat !

Take the 2 way postage off and that is not out of the way.

 

[stesh]

they didn't mention anything about postage..
do you get your MFT done there ?

 

[ruston]

I have separates . I used a chap in Newcastle but like me he is retired now.

Contact your local wholesaler, most do a drop in day for calibrating any meters, just had mine done for £30 at CEF

 

[ruston]

There is one in Newcastle does them but I do not know if I am allowed to name them?

 

[Darkwood]

Nothing wrong with giving the OP options @ruston, it's relevant to the thread and you have no vested interest in them then there is nothing wrong with posting details or a link.

Is that the price if you deliver and collect ?

they didn't say - going to call back tomorrow & double check.

checked again today as I had more time & the £82+vat doesn't include pick up & delivery

It's on your doorstep. Is it worth the worry of sending it away as you seemed concerned.

 

[stesh]

I'm just suprised the prices are so varied in the area... plus i've seen how some of the delivery companies handle the parcels

 

[ruston]

What is the cheapest you have been quoted?

 

[Octopus]

I would be asking around in the wholesalers ...

 

[stesh]

been quoted £65+vat from a place in stockton, so might as well just get it done locally..

 

[ruston]

Sorry , when I saw Durham as your location I thought Peterlee would be close to you.
