I hired a handyman from FS. The job was done exactly as quoted. But when I checked my bank account,…read morethey had charged 35% more than the job itself. I thought it was a mistake. When I called they would not take the call but go through an online app. It took days of messages back and forth and even then I did not get all the money back. They won't talk to you on the phone even if you ask. Terrible customer service! There are lots of decent handyman companies that do not misuse their customer's cards once they get hold of the number. How is this company allowed to do so and still operate in the United Kingdom?

A Running Scam -- A Criminal Scheme of Alarming Scale! It's…read morehard to believe this so-called business is still operating unchecked. For years, it has posed as one of Britain's top plumbing companies while repeatedly defrauding customers. I wish I had read the many negative reviews from others who were scammed just like me. The company displays a distinctive pattern. We called them to replace a simple plastic bath mixer- an attachment -- a very basic fixture that any professional plumber should carry or quickly source. During the initial call, and after paying £156 in advance, for the first hour, I offered to send a photo of the required part. They refused. That should have been the first red flag. Their tactic is simple: arrive, declare they don't have the part, suggest a quick trip to a local DIY shop that predictably doesn't stock it, then "go to Argos" -- consuming most of the paid hour. The plumber never returns but instead sends a follow-up report, suggesting another visit the next day for an additional £200 to "complete the job." In reality, the part is standard -- any competent plumber should either carry it or be able to collect it easily from their office stock. Instead, the company pockets £156 for doing virtually nothing. For reference, they quoted £360 to install a basic shower mixer onto bathtub taps -- a task that's usually straightforward and should not require such inflated costs or deceptive practices. This operation has exploited customers this way for years, as proven by numerous similar online complaints. Avoid these fraudsters and report their scam to Citizens Advice, who can escalate the matter to Trading Standards for investigation.

The most awful service I have ever experienced…read more Apparently, you cannot give 0 stars, which is a shame, as Pimlico do not even deserve 1 star. Incompetent administration, an engineer who lied and a complaints process which is basically them deciding that you are wrong. As others have said it's £150 up front. The engineer turned up, worked about 5 minutes and said everything was fine. 3 days later the leak started again in exactly the same place. Pimlico said I would have to pay again to get someone to look at it and that their engineer had advised a replacement which I had refused and that it was all detailed in the engineer report. Of course, I had never received the engineer report as they had the wrong email address for me, and if I had received it, I would have challenged the false statements the engineer had included in it. I immediately made a complaint, which they dismissed as they had video evidence that supported the fact I was lying about what the engineer told me. They didn't follow their own 3 step complaints process, they are not a member of any external ombudsmen or complaints scheme. So, when they defraud you and dismiss your claim, you have nowhere to go. Oh and of course they later admitted they didn't have any video evidence and claiming they had was a mistake, but they still didn't refund me the £150 or admit any wrongdoing. Literally the worst company I have ever dealt with.
