Is there a customer "avoid" list in trading or business?

...how would I communicate to tradespersons and businesses I am not a risk to work with or a "problem" customer?

You could write MUG in large letters on your forehead.

Many people have worked really hard to give us the consumer rights we are all now entitled to. Why just throw them away?

I had a job booked in for a customer for next week. And because of his attitude during a phone call the other day to confirm a time. I messaged him saying I won’t be going. And blocked him on my phone. End of!!!   

We have a few properties and have managed to find a number of tradesmen over the years that we get along with and keep doing a great job. It might seem odd  but we're rather reluctant to recommend them to other family members who always seem to find "problems" with everyone they employ.

Is it me? But I find the younger generation ( not all) quite crass. Think nothing of swearing and are abrupt.
When can you come to my hood and do a job? Well the only hood I know is Robin, and he’s brown bread so no iam not coming.
