On joining Checkatrade you will be promised the earth but in reality will receive very little. Checkatrade’s answer is always to speak to one of there advisers who will always try to sell you different areas at crazy prices or to pay extra to have an advantage. They always talk about fair competition and doing the right thing but again in reality they really do fall very very short. You are tied into a contract and are made to see out the contract even if you receive very little or no responses. You can ask them if your ad is ok and they will reassure you that you have a great add. Next it will be you need more reviews so you get loads of reviews from jobs and still no change. Last word rip off, con, day light robbery or any other negative you can think of. Please please think twice. If I can help one person not to make the same huge Checkatrade mistake then I am a happy man Date of experience: 01 February 2023
