British Ceramic Tiles - They actually want our feedback

Ah, that took longer than I thought it would.
Positions I hold are:
Father
Husband
CEO
Head of sales
Pa/administrator
Accountant
Plumber
Tiler
Labourer
Cleaner
*** wiper, along with many others, but none affiliated with BCT.
Wish I was, I bet they offer a much better pension scheme than I am on.
Although this thread has got me thinking today so have approached alternative tile distributors to see what else is on offer.
But in the meantime let’s hope BCT listen to us and do make changes to quality, even if this means increasing prices, as surely being able to offer a quality British product would do our industry the world of good.

Peace out!
 
I think it’s a conspiracy, bct tiles are just a front for all the no’s against leaving the European Union and showing us the British crap we will be left with!
Ps the earth is flat that’s why levels work 😉
 
If you're in a position that you don't have to, or want to fit these tiles, then don't fit them.
Personally I'm not that fussed, there not the best tiles in the world, but with a bit of fiddling around you can make a decent job....
Just ...!! 🙂

Most things made in Britain or for the British Market are of poor quality.

It’s as if the average member of the general public is happy to accept seconds.

People are better than they used to be but generally don’t complain nearly enough. The old British stiff upper lip has gotten Brits nowhere.

Unfortunately, it’s unlikely to change if people keep buying crap products. I have had to fit crap tiles and terrible bathroom suites all made in Britain in the past but nowadays I only spec my own gear and none is made in Britain apart from a few exceptions.
 
Working in a million pound+ home today and one of the bathrooms had porcelanosa's finest in. Truly awful tiling though and the jobs above look miles better.
Just goes to show ...
