Do not use this site. Makes it more expensive for the tradesman and the customer. They get the money regardless its a good job or bad. Avoid like a plague

We thought this site would be a good way of getting new buisness. How wrong were we. Con merchants.
Do not use, unless you want them to steal your hard earned money.

Insecure leads
March 3, 2015

Anybody can puit a job on with no intention of doing it, and the cost is burdened by tradesmen for every idiot under the sun. Plus the prices quoted are totally ridiculous

No local leads
Obviously not in the interest of the tradesmen to travel so far hence outlandishly high quotes, that's when they can be bothered to send one

Websites such as Rated People are supposed to be raising the standard of how tradespeople interact & trade with consumers. Unfortunately out of 4 tradespeople that we have used via Rated People, only 1 has produced work to a decent standard. As a person who works in a trade, I have noticed that Rated People & other similar websites have successfully contributed to lowering the standard of tradespeople in the UK by providing a platform for unscrupulous and below-par people to advertise their below-standard services in exchange for paying for the privilege.

Rated People and other similar websites need to urgently review who they allow to trade on their websites. Unsuspecting consumers, like myself, are placing trust in these websites that they will receive good service from vetted tradespeople. The reality is definitely not the case and Rated People need face up to their original brief to raise standards otherwise consumers are no better off by simply playing 'Russian roulette' with a copy of the Yellow Pages!

The tradesman they recommended caused me a final bill of £416 to put the work right.
A so called plumber who was a complete cowboy. I wanted to show no stars for the review.

Con artists
June 14, 2019

I cancelled my payments to this company after growing tired of fake leads, they chased me for £20 owed on the account sold the debt on to a debt collecting agency who increased the debt to £160 and are still harassing be for the money. 6 months later rated people illegally took £76 out of my bank account, I tried calling their customer service line and was met with message after message saying that their services were down, I then tried from a friends phone and their services miraculously worked from his line so after taking payment from my account have blocked me from being able to call them. After speaking with a woman about this matter she starting telling me it sounded like I was underwater my signal must be bad even though I could hear her clearly I told her not to hang up the phone on me and eventually she could hear me ok even though I didn't move. She then told me that it's another department that deals with payments and they weren't open until 10am and gave me a number (which charges for calls) I asked her to get them to call me and she said that was fine but doesn't know when they would call, I'm still waiting on the call and luckily my bank refunded the payments.
Avoid this company this is not the first issue I have heard

Had work done by one of their 'rated' people a few months ago and have now had to have the work re-done by another plumber. REPORTED MAXIM LATHAM TO RATED PEOPLE FOR APPALLING WORKMANSHIP, which led to the flat downstairs from us being flooded. RATED PEOPLE REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

Scam
January 21, 2019

They are scam artists. Fake leads and they refuse to refund your account. At most they will give you credit... so you can but more fake leads! Dont bother if you are a trades person.
