True - though the NICEIC one does generate an online certificate you can immediately download now - they are available at midnight following the form being completed (Can't see a reason why that bit wouldn't work at weekends, since it's automated).Worthwhile pointing out, here..... even if you actioned the Part P submission this morning, it won't get actioned by the scheme until Monday at the very earliest and the relevant BC office won't file it for days.
Sounds like this agent is a total knob-jockey and probably in cahoots with the other electrician in just trying to make you look bad.

The landlord just called me and said that its not even a new tenant its a new tenancy with the same tenant, he said they told him that we were breaking the law but he had called a few letting agents today and they said they were talking crap and then he spoke to the other electrician who works for them and he said we were not even registered and that by changing the board and not supplying the full Niceic part p at the time we were not registered and we should be reported to the Niceic for using their logo and we can be taken to court and that fitting a board a new light and 2 socket front changes for less than £800 proved we were not registered, he said no the price was £900 and he said yeah the £100 for the agency commission cheeky buggers. Anyhow i talked him through the Niceic web page where he found our Approved Contractor details, the landlord said sorry would we like another job and we left on mutual terms agreeing he would contact the actual agency first thing Monday morning. He said you dont have to be a brain surgeon to work out why they have done and said what they have but funny enough the Landlord actually is a brain surgeonWhat laws this not doing Eic before time or the EICR on time.

KNOBSKULL!Knobskull!
(Sorry I just wanted to say it out loud..)
I was generalising @pirate and that is wrong I know, I know you are right.....it’s just the only ones I’ve ever met lie through they massive white teeth and genuinely believe looking like a love island donut is more important than actually knowing and or doing they jobs.....@James has hit the nail on the head...,the loser will be the tenant and it won’t be the agents fault!
A percent would be reasonable I've heard of 10 - 20% being taken with regard to organising the work what does the 10% creamed of the rent cover is that not a management feeIf they actually organise the work, check it was done, and arrange payment, etc, then taking a percent on top is perfectly reasonable.
But they have no right to that should the landlord sort it out directly!
