Absolute shambles of a company, tricked me into signing up after promising great things, then telling me we’ve set you up on the wrong platform and you need to pay another £300, I had 2 different people from there office, slating each other.. very unprofessional, refusing to give me a refund, even though I haven’t signed an agreement! AVOID THIS COMPANY!!!

It’s a scam,they make you pay for a year subscription upfront and don’t provide any leads and if you don’t let them know with 60 days before the automatic renewal they will tax you again for another year !!!

Is it a scam?

Thought this is genuine because they were quoting Wolseley & wren etc. paid £540. Didn’t receive any leads at all for a week now. It looks like they put some dummy leads for attracting me.

Reminds me of the Wolf of Wall Street movie، I paid £900 for pro membership four days ago, book a builder created a profile for me with the wrong phone number no matter how many times I spoke to them to correct the phone number to no avail, before I paid them They told me that we provide you with unlimited jobs, but now there is not a single job in the Book A Builder application, they only advertise, don't be deceived, all their words are lies.

We have been with book a builder for 2 months now and not had a single lead at all will let the weather warm up a little to see if there is any change as this time of year is not to great for my sort of work.

Be careful with this company if you got time cancel they are crooks!!! This is my opinion they don’t give me n work for a year and the staff of them are very convincente to take your money.

They want nearly £1K because I didn't gave 60days notice i didn't want to renew, i cancelled the card i made the original payment tho

So

so this can be treated as a tip to resign. You have to give them 60 days notice if you want to cancel. Hehe, I just don't understand why, but maybe one of you should try it

Did you try to reach customer service/ customer care? You should start always there, they should help you with cancellation

I signed up thinking this would be perfect for getting work(plumber). Turns out it’s the biggest scam and I fell for it. Took £500 and then an extra £600 with out me knowing. Reported with bank and got money back…. Avoid like the plague

Mike

It would be great if you could write how they collected this extra money themselves to warn people, and another thing is whether there were any job posts there or nothing?

*** NO option to opt out from subscription, it's been 2 years we haven't been able to opt out!!!!!!***

From what I see, you pay not only to see job offers, but also to be in their database of companies. Then someone who needs a worker can find you more easily (or not hehe). Am I right?

Book a Builder is a scam organisation. They say that the service is free. When you sign up you receive a phone call saying that if you pay a fee of anything from £500 to £1500 you will have a personal manager who will direct the kind of work you want and a all singing all dancing service. What you get is nothing. You find out you have signed up to a on line directory that is as much use bent two (deleted by the administrator) bit. When you try and ask for your money back there is a disclaimer saying that they will not honour any agreement that has been made by one of their sales team. My legal team is looking into the legality of this statement with the result of a possible prosecution.
So watch out for the My Builder scam

If you check this company and PALACE MEDIA LIMITED, owned by the same person, with the company house uk, you'll be shocked.

Is there something wrong with them? Or you just want tradesmen and builders to leave reviews under your comment?

It's always sad to see things like that happen, especially in 2023 when everyone can leave comments everywhere. Did you think about reporting that somewhere?

Absolutely dreadful, promised loads of work in my area. This didn't happen, I had one job in a year which paid £120 . They fleeced me for £400 then a rep contacted me to say I can upgrade to commercial work for another £400. This was an absolute lie. I've never received any of this work. If you're a gas engineer please avoid at all costs. They use their affiliation with Wolseley to give themselves some kind of standing in the industry. Total rubbish, I will never join one of these companies again. Complete and utterly (deleted by the administrator).
