In the email 'Promoting your business' sent out by [email protected] yesterday (23/9/15), with Elecsa logos top and bottom, there is a link to the Landlords Pack which has been sent to 1150000 Landlords.


The second question in the FAQ of the Landlords Pack (page17) asks:


'Who can landlords contact to get an EICR carried out?


It gives the answer:


Only NICEIC Approved Contractors can carry out EICR’s and a list of Approved Contractors can be found on our websiteniceic.com.


This is factually incorrect and potentially damaging to all Elecsa members.

I urge you to contact Elecsa and express your concerns.

I have already emailed them as when I phoned the couldn't tell me who was responsible for the email.

I'll let you know if I get any response.

What about the other scam parties, like Napit?
Looks like everyone just wants to look out for their own group instead of working together.
 
I was working at home a few weeks back and took an unsolicited call from the Electrical Safety Council offering a free "electrical survey".

I asked them what this would entail and who would be doing it?

The answer was a basic "test and survey" - sounds like a visual report

& who? - an NICEIC member - to which I stated that I didn't think the the ESC should be making such calls and passing business to its "members"

a silence from the caller

I then told them what I did for a living..... and the caller put the phone down!

factually incorrect? it's an out and out LIE and they should be prosecuted for it.

so, by inference, anyone who is not a niceic approved contractor is incompetent. is this a case for a libel suit?

I have just got off the phone with elecsa.

I have expressed my outrage that as an elecsa member I have been downgraded in the eyes of landlords. They said they were aware of the situation as they have received numerous calls to this effect today. They were aware of the legal implications and their marketing team were on to the issue with a view to send a revised version out to all the landlords.
I also insisted that they contact members to give an apology and made them aware that from my point of view this is outright fraudulent representation and that industry wide grounds for legal action had been published in this landlords pack.

I await the next week or so for a response.

Thanks very much to andart for raising this, I had just skimmed past the email as the usual inbox BS.
