UK Household income falls to 2005 levels! 17th May 2011 9:15 PM

I think until interest rates rise people are generally carrying on as normal. When they do rise I think everyone will start changing their spending habbits..

It's probably a woman and not a bloke, after all who starts all the arguements indoors?

I think that there are questions to be asked all round, why were Pakistan harbouring him? Why are western nations hell bent on trying to convert the rest of the world to being democratic? Why is the UK Government sending taxpayers money to Pakistan when Bin Laden was living in

Google is not the leader everywhere... 5th May 2011 7:18 PM

Every morning I get up to emails sent from China offering me cheap solar panels, but it's just quicker to get them from the plumbers merchants across the road

Anyone knows if a PAT test is necessary for an event? 5th May 2011 7:07 PM

Portable appliance testing, is a legal requirement under the Health and Safety at work act 1974 Is it worth an electrician jumping in his van to test two appliances for you? Nope, I find a small electrical shop and take the units to them to test. As it happens any public place where you do presentations should also ask for the certificate... Most turn a blind eye, some will except that if you do not have a certificate that you can only plug anything in via a circuit breaker switch, Oh and I've never been asked for one and I'm always in offices and places of employment..

Ever used a virtual office address for SEO reasons? 4th May 2011 4:40 PM

Yep your right it is in the market place, How I got scammed was quite simple, it was because SEO is a totally unregulated market and unaccountable. The plumbing industry has it's fair share of scam artists. But SEO is in a league of its own when it comes to rogues. In fact the whole industry of SEO needs to clean it's act up. It should never be the situation where you pay a proffessional (which means they have some kind of qualification) which as far as I am aware there isn't one, but you pay a large some of money, normally 50% upfront and you may or may not end up with a result. Even if you visit sites like top seo any information from there is all self promoted hogwash. Anyway not realising that this was a market place forum I'm quite happy for the original reply and this be removed, I thought I was replying to a general topical question, as to the other point how do I know about the spam, I was referring to the Virtual office themselves, what tends to happen, they will telephone and if they get no answer they will then start sending emails offering their services at a

The daddy of all links 3rd May 2011 10:26 PM

I have a EDU link, it is based somewhere out in Vietnam, whether it is of much use I have no idea. I employed a so called top seo company in the UK who charged

Debt Doctor gone bust 3rd May 2011 10:14 PM

I'm a plumber not a lawyer, but I'm guessing that a company such as Debt Dr would have to be registered with the FSA before they could operate. I would also assume that clients money had to be in certain types of accounts and guaranteed to be safe. Even though they are trading under a Ltd company banner, does not allow them to escape lightly. If they continued to trade knowing full well they were insolvent, then the Insolvency service that wind the business up can recommend that the directors are held accountable and if need be made bankrupt... that my understanding of it anyway.. But good luck and as it is early days I wouldn't get to stressed about it yet, not until you hear from someone official..

Ever used a virtual office address for SEO reasons? 3rd May 2011 3:27 PM

Sorry never meant to cause any kind of offense, but the original poster asked the question...Have you ever considered using a virtual office for SEO reasons? And my answer to it yes I have, albeit inadvertently and for me it was a big mistake. I take your point on national companies using virtual offices, but they tend to have a head office somewhere. As a customer you are not going to check the ins and outs of every business you have dealings with, you would never have the time to do so at most you will do reasonable checks. I carry out work for many businesses in London but I don't do a thorough investigation on them all before doing so. My only gripe with virtual offices and I know there are many of them springing up my spam email box often gets unwanted mail from them, but if you have been scammed by a company hiding behind a virtual office, its a long drawn out and costly proccess to get the information you need.. One more thing, I've also noticed businesses saying they operate from a so called virtual office address to give them some kind of credibility but don't, of course this is not down to those running the office, but hopefully you get my point. Like I said no offense meant..
