If it can be done properly for £45, then £130 does sound like a rip-off.

I've got to agree.

Help, I live in the Surrey area and need to find a doctor who will do a hgv medical quickly and at a reasonable price. Local GP wants over £120 to do it!!!! Have left renewing my licence to last minute-what an idiot. Surrey and West Sussex area.

how is it advertising??

i am letting people know of a service they are asking about in the forum?!

Browntoa

your service ....your earn...advertising

and would anyone trust a medical done for a 3rd of the price of a real one ??

geeza247

if you read the post you will see members are specifically asking for info on reduced price medicals in slough.

the whole point of this site is help one another save money!

if we go by your attitude 'would you trust someone for doing it for a 1/3 of the price...' ,then no posts could be trusted on here!

thats great.

my post is not an ad.

it does not have any links to any websites, nor does it include contact details. nor am i any form of company- just someone replying to the questions posted.

you need to look through this post, and you will find many other msgs containing all of what you have pointed out. you need to remove those i think.

you joined today , posted answers to 2 old threads about the same subject (which were then merged into this single thread) and I notice you have now edited your original post an hour after it was originally posted to remove the contact details......

call me a cynic but .....................

yes i joined today, after looking for info on hgv medicals and coming across these posts.

no, my original posts did not have any contact details in the 1st place -unlike the other posts on this thread with numbers and website details.

yes i edited my posts, after you informed me of the non-ad rules -i did this to clarify i was not a company etc.

i will remove all my posts, as i find the attititude displayed by you rather agressive. i thought this was a friendly consumer site, for normal ppl helping one another.

all i did was post to help the other members of the forum.
