The customer has replaced the cold cartridge but it had carried on dripping. My suggestion was trying the filtered drinking water but wondered what your thoughts are as I don't know if these things have o rings that perish and back fill etc.

Dripping from spout? Well if she got the right cartridge she must know the make/model? Yeah, change the other two. They'll only go 2 mins later anyway.
 
Bite the bullet and change the whole thing. You don't want to go back for free in 2 months time.
 
Maybe the base is not good anymore and needs tap reseating ? Did you try this before installing the new cartridge ? But as above I'd not just change the cartridge you will most probably go back there very soon and that's for free ...
 
Thanks for all the replies. I did find the franked triflow one which does look very similar. I suggested he might be better off to replace whole tap but at the moment he gets really good flow from the hot and most of the taps I have put in lately have been dreadful because of the filters keeping hot and cold separate.
