Guild of PAT Testers

[Michelle2909]

Another point, the site says for more information on pat testing click here, when you click it takes you to the pat testing info site - does this mean they have a link from the plug test site or is the pat testing info site owned by plug check too?

No he's just added a link to someone elses site

Have to say - this is a hilarious coincidence - registrar is "cheapest" and "wild west domains" just brilliant - this scam is registered by the cheapest cowboys!!

Cowboy guild on a cowboy site - very apt

Hi Ho Silver away

 

[ukpat]

The Guild does look like the same company as Plugcheck.co.uk well its got the same address and the same picture on one page. Plugcheck are a member as well???? Born Yesterday!!!

 

[GOODWIN]

Has anyone ever heard of the guild, and are you a member?

Is it genuine? I've been approached to join them but had never heard of them, there's no one near me that knows of them so I'm trying to find out if it's real or a scam. Can anyone help?

Cheers

no but i bet their a boring bunch of fellas though

 

[RWJ]

Think it's a bit of blatant self promotion IMHO

 

[paulytrick]

Just checked the site, I'm on there as well with a message saying I'm not a member. I can feel a strongly worded email coming on......

I'm not a member of the niceic, napit, elecsa or anyone else for that matter but they haven't taken the liberty of plastering that all over their website.

 

[RWJ]

They're a bunch of rogues!!!!!

I just looked on "the guild" website they've got us listed.
The listing states "Not Currently Guild of PAT Testers Member"
but has a link to Request a quote in with "our listing".

So you would presume you'd get a quote from us...

I just clicked on the link on the "our listing" put in a random hotmail account I've got and asked for a quote....

Just got a quote from a company in Ipswich... As far as I can see they've not contacted us... (Although I don't have access to every email address)


BUNCH OF ROGUES!!!

Will be telling the governor tomorrow, he'll flip and call his lawyer.......AGAIN!!!

 

[DurhamSparky]

really...!!! hmmm...!!

 

[paulytrick]

The entire website is misleading.

I've asked to be removed and the guy has removed me.

I'm a little angry to be honest. Everyone could do with a little more work but to make a website saying 1 company's better than the other because they've given me £15 is a very bad thing to do isn't it?

misleading, dishonest dishonourable....trying to think of words to describe it without swearing... lying..... anyone else?

UPDATE:

I've now received three quotes from various companies, after clicking the request quote link our our unofficial listing.

I also checked and we have had NO communications from "the guild".
So as I suspected you click on the link expecting a quote from one company and end up getting quotes from "guild members" / paid up suckers!!

 

[DurhamSparky]

well i cant imagine he will be getting much customers after all the feedback from this site!!!

do a google search for guild of pat testers and you get the forum post before you find him!!

 

[ringer]

He hasn't got me listed, not even as a "Not Currently Guild of PAT Testers Member". Not sure whether to be miffed he missed me out, or relieved that he hasn't 'outed' me as not being a member of his (ahem) "Guild".

 

[RWJ]

We got a reply from one company, when I asked why they replied when I click "our unofficial" link they claimed they've taken us over!!
Someone will be getting a solicitors letter!!!

 

[DurhamSparky]

sweet....!!! hope the guild of pat tester is reading this!! im all up for a day in court...!!
