Putting a sticker on your door & then lying about it!

So cross to wake up to a sticker on my door from this company, what a stupid thing to do. When I rang to politely let them know I didn't appreciate it was told it was nothing to do with them and it must be someone doing it to keep their phones busy, oh but while I was on the phone did I need a locksmith!!!! Would never use a company who a) think this sort of marketing is acceptable and b) think you were born yesterday and lie to you! Advise you not to either.

Wish I could give this zero stars

Wish I could give this zero stars. I'm another person who found a sticker on my letterbox advertising this company. They're all down my road too. Called the number and was told they're based in Barnet, miles away from me on the South side of the river, and they haven't flyers in my area. Very dodgy marketing practice.

Sticker on my letter box

Put a sticker on my letter box, same thing all over my road and the area of East London. When i called them to complain, they denied it was them. Seriously who else would do free marketing for you!!!
Would never use a company who would do that.

Really anti-social marketing to put an advertising sticker on people's letter boxes. They've plastered the entire street. Leaflets are an acceptable use of someone's letter box. Sticking something to someone's letter box isn't. As a result, I will definitely not be using or recommending this company...ever.

Unacceptable marketing strategy

Never use them never will. They thought it was very clever to put a sticker on my postbox which is down low at the bottom of my door. I have mobility issues. It won’t come off and I’m now having to spend hours on my knees soaking this highly Objectionable. How could you possibly trust a company? Who does things like this with your keys or your locks?

Awful company, no morals

Posting leaflets would be bad enough but this company have been sticking posters on our door (a normal semi detached in a residential area). Steer clear.

Burglars or vandals?

They should really have a zero star rating. Burglars at worst, vandals at best.

They stuck something to my front door advertising their services supposedly but it’s a near transparent sticker. Sounds like tactics to see if people are home regularly to see if a place is safe to break into.

Locksmiths maybe but not the kind you want! I’ve got ring footage that I’ll be forwarding to the police.

Came home to find they had stuck a sticker on my door! Absolutely livid! Won't ever be calling them if I get locked out. When I rang the number the man said it was a plumbing company and didn't know what I was talking about - clearly a lie.

Horrendous

Found a clear sticker stuck on my front door as I was going to bed. A Google search indicated that this may be a method used by burglars to case properties out. Called the number on the sticker to check whether it was genuine, feeling really rather uneasy and hoping for some reassurance; the guy who answered the phone was beyond rude, absolutely horrible, pretended to not understand what I was talking about and then said “I don’t have time for this” before swearing and putting the phone down on me. Absolutely appalling. I’m disgusted.

Won’t be using them...

Came home to find a plastic sticker advertising their services on my front door! Please don’t vandalise property to advertise your services. It reflects badly on the company.
