we were ready to book.... we waited for a quote or even an indication we were unlikely to get a better deal.... we watched as within 7 days of getting the original quote the price increased ... we've give up waiting and booked now ..... its cost an extra £80 ...but at least its booked
Its a shame.. such a good idea for a thread... you have no idea if anyone has taken a look at your quote....only a few appear to get a pm in response... & even less appear to have enough manners to say thanks for the work done for them.
so if you did take a look at the time ... or since the original quote was posted I say Thanks.... and if you didnt..... well I guess that would be Thanks for nothing!!0 -
