British Gas lack manners and leave a bad smell

So i've just had my loft insulation done by British Gas through the scheme advertised on this very site. The installation was quick enough, however one of the installers used my bathroom without asking, left lovely stains in my toilet pan and used half a bottle of bleach down the pan to mask the stomach wrenching smell he left.

How bloody rude :mad:

    Well they won't be British gas workers - but sub-contractors!


    Your point is taken, but better doing it in your toilet than the loft;)

    at least he tried to clean up after himself with the bleach

    If the poor bloke needed the loo what would you have preferred? That he left a log in the loft or the garden?

    Perhaps his need was slightly more urgent than a conversation on toilet etiquette would allow?

    As above. And you can hardly blame the company for the employee/contractor's stomach problems...
