Anyone been contacted by RCB Management?

[craig1010]

I was contacted today by a cold caller claiming to be from RCB Management. They are apparently a management company who have approved building traders, i.e. joiners tilers etc., that cover designated areas/postcodes, doing domestic and commercial work. They charge a one off fee of £199.00 and guarantee at least 3 jobs per month, and no other traders of the same profession in the same area. They claim to be part of Port of Tradesmen Quota.
I've Googled and can't find any website, forum info or feedback, positive or negative. Perhaps they're new, or more thieving pirates.
Anyone any info?

Stay clear, a load of old tosh under a new guise!:mad2:

how could they guarantee 3 jobs a month? i get one or two of these every now and then different names etc but they seem to be reading the same script i normally say let me have it for the year and if i get what you are promising ill pay you double its amazing how fast they give up!

I suspected so myself. She phoned again today, I asked if there was a website, and she said it was tradesmenquoter.co.uk. I hadn't heard of it before. It's not something I'm considering, but was curious to know if anyone had had any dealings with them. I've googled them and can't find any negative info.

cheers anyway!
