    Thanks, Mr Happy.  T hat's very helpful.   Can you suggest an authentic-looking box into which I could put the gubbins?

    Take the cover to a good local car body shop, they should be able to spray it to any colour you want.

    I've done this in the past when a customer insisted on a cover that blended with a stone wall, have to say it turned out pretty well.

    In order to fix your issues you first have to understand that you have them. Many people think that its everyone else who has the problem, I employed someone like that once 

    Totally agree with you.

  3. Pity that he doesn't use some of his money for a psychologist to help work out his issues.

    wow, If you shaved a monkey & kicked him though screwfix, as long came out wearing a pair of trousers, a pair boots & holding a screwdriver you've got an alarm monkey* ;)

     

     

     

    * or most other tradesmen

    And he'd still come out with higher intelligence & better attitude than this idiot.

    Sadly people like him think that everyone else is like themselves, he apparently is actually quite well off.

     

    But its about how it got to be well off that defines his personality. If you made your fortune by ripping people off, you think that is what everyone else is doing it. As opposed to people that have worked hard all their lives to make their money who do understand, what goes into quality workmanship, and understand the value of hard work. 

     

    He thinks that everyone else is like him and trying to rip him off, but nobody is forcing him to buy from us or take our advice. 

     

    I got a quote on Friday to get my Merc ceramic coated and valeted, I asked the guy if the car needed machine polishing first(an extra £150.00 worth of work) the chap said no once I have gone over it with the clay bar I will hand polish out any minor scratches. He could have easily said yes I would have not known any difference but that is an example of the sort of advice you get from someone that works for a living. I like to think that I would always give the same sort of advice when it comes to security, I never sell detection where its not required.

    Hmm, we only have his word for the fact that he's well off. Personally I still think he failed at getting into the alarm industry and that's where the stinking attitude towards us comes from. 

    It's nice to hear there are still some honest people around, sadly they seem to be getting fewer by the year.

    He assumed I was taking the piss when I said to check the faint beeping from his keypad wasn't the the smoke alarm low battery beep....

     

    He then sulked away, came back on different a/c & then returned on the 1st a/c

     

    Pricing, you can ask whatever you want for a job I can help people for free, ask thousands or be some where in the middle of 3 quotes.... which is the normal feedback I get.

     

    Normally if the customer is being quoted lots of money for a modest job, either the local conman has been round or honest people are trying their hardest not to win the work, I assume Paul experienced the later ;)

     

     

    If he exhibits the same attitude towards people in everyday life as he did here, I'm not surprised his "Electrical engineer" sons do nothing for him. That's if they actually exist. 

  6. Still don't understand what the attitude and abuse was all about ?. He reckoned that he was only giving back the abuse he'd received. Anyway you know what they say: good riddance to bad rubbish.

  7. Just now, Paul A said:

    Arrhh bless you.. it's not abuse, it's called giving as good as I get.. your type of bully boy tactics obviously scare a lot of people off, and then when they give you back a bit of what you try and dish out, you go crying To mom and say ban him mom... Hahaha.. pathetic !!!

    Yes, I totally agree with you, you are a pathetic specimen of humanity. As far as I can see, nobody has given you any abuse yet. In fact the guys have all been really restrained and polite, the only one dishing out abuse is you. I wonder could this be because you wanted to be an Alarm engineer, but didn't have the Intelligence to make the grade ?. Please don't bother to reply, your childish and asinine comments are exceptional in their ability to bore.

  8. I'm beginning to worry about Peter, he'll be telling us next that he likes Whips and Chains as well :whistle:.

    Hmm, maybe that's better kept for a different place.

  9. Wasn't actually thinking about using LED for a new system at the time, but in the context of replacing like for like.

    Having said that, if someone who had bought a system with an LED panel couldn't install it. I wouldn't turn down the installation just because it was an LED panel.
