This has been playing on my mind a little bit and hit home last week.

i got sent to move a bayonet fitting (or self sealing plug for kirkgas) ;)

turned up and got refused entry with no explanation, i showed my gas card and said to contact the person i subcontract too but i just got sent away.

found out earlier this evening that it was due to my age!!
and several other customers haven't liked it either.

i'm 21 now and I'm just wondering on what you guys think about it?
and what ages you got qualified for gas at!

i'll get the drinks in, let me just run home and get my passport.... :)
 
I'm 26 and have been working for myself for three years now. I have never been refused entry because of my age, infact the comment I had about my age was "how do you know so much when you are still so young?". That was after I fixed an issue that 3 previous plumbers had failed to fix.
 
Well after today i have three full ch systems to quote for
a combi swap and other little bits and bobs

all we need is a little faith aye?
