Hi all, This all boils down to one thing again.....MONEY! If the government was to offer us the Kite scheme foc, then I'm sure 100% would apply, after all, they help the FARMERS out enough in this country. There is no way that anyone is going to pay £750 per anum to have some jobsworth come and vet their garage!!! As I have mentioned before, surely some governing body could actually check with the Trading Standards and actually see which garages have had masses of complaints and which ones have never had a single report! Then they could start offering the best garages with the kite mark first, then the others can be offered the kite, but only after cleaning up their act. Oh and then there is the fast-fits, remember the certain complaints by everyone against a certain fast-fits advert? mmmmmmm the OFT really took notice of that didn't they! With bent governing bodies such as the OFT, what hope is there, oh and I have just dropped my membership to the RMI as well this year, as I thought that being a member was total SHITE! No-one has ever mentioned me being a member, asked about the sign, and to be quite honest all the monthly news letters are full of, are suits talking about or to other suits, about lobbying this or lobbying that, and nothing informative for the small garage at all! This is just my opinion, and I may be wrong, any thoughts? Gunner. |
