I haven't given them any money yet ha, legally a contract isn't in force until a "consideration" is made i.e money paid OR work done so nothing is in force yet

This might be your lucky day. Did you give them a credit card number or bank details?

Yeah but ive cancelled the card ha, seems abit extreme but i dont use that card unless absolutely needed and money is good atm so i wont need it anytime soon!

If you've got a few minutes to spare on a weekend, go into any of the sheds with a pocket full of business cards and hang around in the relevant aisles. By people watching and eves-dropping on conversations you can soon tell the ones who are dangerous with screwdriver. A quick friendly chat, pop a card in their grateful little mitts and wait for the phone call. It's worked for me a few times and it's usually simple stuff, takes longer to get the tools out.

I agree with the people are not looking for an electrician in a DIY store but I benefit from this as they get home take the light(s) out of the box then think na and I end up getting a phone but they only look for me after they have been to the store
