Gray Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Just had a pair of these in which the local T's couldn't repair. His excuse to the customer was. "We can't do them because the glue we use is toxic" .......WTF....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobblers Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 It was the berk who refused them that was toxic - to the bloody industry. People like that give us all a bad name, I had a pair of PU soles in this week that apparently 'couldn't be done' by another repairer Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsy9 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Agreed Kobblers. How many folk are put off getting their shoes repaired because some numpty can't be bothered or able to do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perplexus Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Our local T's-manager helps to keep us in business, fixing the things he can't/won't tackle. Customers say he's also miserable and rude, so that helps! Is it part of their training? Long may it continue! =D> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowster Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 you cant beat going into a timpson shop and asking for something easy to get done and listen to the rubbish they spill out at you, probabilly 90percent of them havent a clue what a welt or a rand is, and that includes the area managers.
