Terms and Conditions

[hammers4spanner]

When do you lot pass over your T & C's i have been sending mine over with estimate for work but reckon its prob not best idea. I do feel mine are a tad strong as well which probably puts frighteners on a fair few custs .

what do you guys do?

 

[AlexGas]

I just mention a can of worms...

 

[gassafe]

I'm guessing most send with the quote... It's probably a legal thing that the custard sees what there accepting when they accept the quote!

Maybe time them down abit... Mine are pretty basic, I don't want to scare every customer for the sake of the 1 guy who is going to try it on in years time?

Better still, keep the tough worded one & send it to people you think might try it on!

Never liked mine do think they are tad strong hence was wondering what the collective do.

Find it best not to mention Nipple clamps for the ladies and Mole grips for the men to early.

If you don't send them before the customer agrees to have the work done, then they don't form part of the contract, and are valueless in court.

But you can often say the same thing in different ways, and some wordings will cause more concern with customers than others. Why not post yours up Hammers, and maybe we can suggest ways of achieving the same protection for you with language that is more acceptable to your customer?

If you have a website, could you not put on your estimate 'by accepting this quote you agree to the terms and conditions that can be found at www......' I'm sure most people wouldn't bother going to read them.

I don't possess any T n Cs , I've nothing on my estimates either, now I realise that this is no good in a court of law if ever go down one of those roads but in real rural life where everyone knows everyone it's not so bad, but different in city life lol,,,

I keep thinking I need to get some basic terms written up.

There is a set of t n Cs somewhere on this forum Dave I think it may be in the arms ,
