    Thats true, they come in and have a nice chat with you lol. It can take 10 minutes before they go. Its not very customer friendly to have a quick exchange on the door.

    cafenervosa, we are obviously just too nice :A

    To me that makes perfect business sense by using the second option thus saving 40p

    Erm, so does nicking a Mars Bar from the shop instead of paying for it! So would you advocate that, too? :D

    Soolin: your callers certainly provide you with plenty of interesting anecdotes!

    I just answer the door, direct them to the back of the house as i keep most of my stuff in the shed and meet them round there. They don't get invited in and as soon as the exchange has taken place its "thanks, bye" and back in the house i go.

    Soolin is right, we are too nice :)
  • i have had 3 or 4 pick ups from home ( all heavy items) always make sure someone else is with me and they have never stayed too long but have also refused a home pickup before as postage cost was minimal so its whatever you are comfortable with really :D
