Topps Tiles

[T & P]

Is it just my local Topps Tiles or does this apply everywhere. I went to set up a trade card/account and Topps told me I had to make a couple of purchases and then on the third visit they would let me buy trade. They told me that this applied at all there branches and was company policy. It that right? There are plenty of other tiling shop round by me and I don't know whether to bother with Topps.

Re: Topps Tiles trade card

hi i had a £1000 order at topps yesterday i took in my vat reg, selco, buildbase, b n q, travis perkins trade details and invoices for over 3k in tiles.
They gave me a tradesavercard and from what i could work out it wasnt any cheaper on tiles but cheaper on adhe etc which is still 3 times the price what i usually pay.

my question is is this card full trade as i cant see me using topps again if so which is a shame as i pass their branches all the time so would eb so handy.

what kind of adhesive and grout did you buy because i don't think there's anything cheaper than toppfix? i may be wrong ?

i bought bal 1 part flexible and i usually use dunlop stuff which is much cheaper then this bal stuff

I know someone who applied for trade at Topps recently and only had to fill a form in and the discount was ready straight away?

worked for them afew years ago as a trusted tiler got a few jobs.but what was better for me was doing a few disply's in my local branch and putting a card on this was better than having the staff say use him IF THE CUSTOMER CAN SEE THE WORK YOU DONE THE BETTER FOR YOU:hurray: this is the only place been able to do this for a long time:hurray::hurray:

Went into topps tiles in bristol today to get a tradesaver card and all they asked for was to see one of my business cards. They said i will get 50% discount straight away, but if i dont use them regularly the discount will drop.

thats not true you dont get 50% staright away u would only get 10-15% at 1st then the more you use topps the more dicount u can get, once you've purchased from them a few times the manager has the option to give you full discount(the maximum)
also toppfix is exactly the same as bal just with topps name on it,,,
