Trust a Trader vs Rated People

[mamba]

Has anyone out there subscribed to both and can offer any views and advise on Trust a Trader.

I am registered with Rated People and all the short comings assosioated with them - there are loads of threads on this subject.
I have recently made enquiries recently with Trust a Trader and first impression is that they seem a little more professional. They first and foremost at least ask for your qualifications and proof of registration with NIC - Napit etc, before putting you on their books. Before splashing out on the £600.00 + vat fee they are asking for, as a measure thought I would put it out there and see others views on them and how they run and operate.

Too late Welchy. givemeallyourmoneyinreturnfornobenefitatallyoumug . co .uk goes live in about 2 hours, I'm predicting a deluge of people rushing to give me loads of cash in order to gain access to a few potential customers (well me and the admin staff) (well actually me and the Mrs)

Trev, I've googled your site but its not up and running so where do I send my hard earned cash because it sounds like a blinding idea.

Here's my bet, you'll pay your £600 and never hear from them again until renewal time when they'll want another £600. I've not heard of trust trader so my guess is they're just another bunch of parasites who'll take your eyes out then come back for the sockets. Look at your local options mate, you'll be better off.

tell you what Trev....wouldn`t it be interesting to find out how many of these efforts are proper setups.....and how many are just operating out of a bedroom `office` or summat?...lol..

Why oh why do people pay up to these types of sites?
Surely you can see, word of mouth a leaflet drop, local rag advertising can be done for far less than the parasitic Web trades for all sites.
Why pay your hard earned money to Dickinson Turpin who sits in his bed room doing good sod all for you......

But as they say....A fool is easily parted from his money!
