Bit extreme just for saying you belong to NIC! Maybe a fine but prison can ruin your whole life family and accomodation.

Interesting Lee, bit of a piddly fine though and I wonder how much of the 11 weeks he'll actually serve.

Surely tranding standards time would be better spent chasing rogue traders who are carrying out unsafe works?

Shame they are not so diligent when it comes to vulnerable people being groomed. Oh yeh forgot, they don't want to be racist they would rather throw their kids under the bus before that.

Scotland would be a much safer place if the DIY idiots and cowboys responsible for the absolutely shocking installs that I've been discovering as of late were also rounded-up, heavily-fined then slung in jail.

Who's to say he wasn't?
At least it's a start......let's hope it stings others into action.

Your post and mentioning people being groomed!

Banging an electrician up for falsely purporting himself to be a member of SELECT and NICEIC and a SBS approved certifier is one thing, but at least he's an electrician. The rogue installers who leve behind unsafe installations in their wake are the ones who should be incarcerated.

If his works were safe and conformed to BS7671 i feel its a great shame that he felt the need to pretend to belong to scheme(scam). Just proves the lengths we have to go to in order to carry out the work we took 4 years learning. I hope it shows the stupidity of the scheme's and the unnecessary lengths we have to go to in order to earn some money.
