How do you know that Fella? you have been out of the country for years haven't you? look there's no doubt they have made it easier to become approved than years ago, but insurance and being a spark with a cheque book won't get you straight into it, anyhow that's my view from experience being a QS with them for close to 20 years now I suppose.Unfortunately it's the truth, whether you agree or disagree!!

I would not be allowed to sign off another companies works fella, if I did that I would be removed from the roll, some of what you say may indeed have merit, but not everything you say is correct IMO, it is exactly the same now regarding inspections and adhering to the rules of the roll as it was 20 years ago, however they have dropped the time from 2 years to one year unless you are registered as a DI with them then it is 6 months, obviously they have to compete with other schemes but they still have much higher standards than others and my engineer who visits me every year is no soft touch regarding quality of works and ensuring all is done right, but as always I respect your views and know we will get nowhere continuing this debate, you have your views I have 20 years experience dealing with them, we won't ever agree for sure.
2 years eng mate...Fair enough MDJ, but i wasn't talking about signing off another company's work, far from it. I was talking about a company's designated QS signing off numerous company electricians work.
So now it can be down to trading for 6 months, that just about wraps it all up then ...lol!!
Perhaps all the photo's and tales we see about NIC AC's are fabricated, i really don't know, but it certainly opens eyes and makes you wonder what's going on if they aren't!!
I'm surprised they actually carried out an assessment. The usual trick is tell you they notified you of an appt by post which never got entered onto their system...they then pretend to turn up without you being aware of any such date and then proceed with a surcharge of around £200 for the missed appt.
well...i`m not being funny guys...but i wont be `got` like that...That happened to us twice last year!!...
Just turned up and then tried to Bill us...
Once received a letter on the same day that the appointment was meant to be, picked the post up and not long after he arrived...unbelievable...
....no one tries pulling my pants down like that...
