Ian Davies has a small willy and I know lol

Its big and hard lol

Two years to think that one up and then search this number out to post your quick fire riposte. Wow, your on fire ,big boy.

I agree with your comments about the idiots who post abuse on here but don´t agree with the rest so let’s clear this up once and for all:

NO WIN NO FEE: except in cases where the measurements are obviously wrong most cases have a range of potential success. There are some with no chance, some with a small chance up to some that have a very good chance. In order to have success we must all agree there needs to be a degree of work carried out and that level of work increases if it is a difficult case and if it has to go beyond being discussed in a programme and actually go on to a hearing. If the eventual outcome is not successful who pays for the work carried out and will that company continue looking for other grounds and ways of achieving success taking the chance these cases may require more work with the possibility of no success. THEREFORE IT BECOMES FAIRLY OBVIOUS: either the work isn't done and fingers cross there is a reduction to charge for or everyone who gets a reduction pays ridiculously high fees to cover the cost of the work.  This is why there is normally a policy for no win no fee only to take on the bigger RV's and to charge fifty percent of the entire reduction.

FEE PAYING: normally the fees cover all the work over a period of the assessment and represent the cost of employing a proper chartered surveyor to deal with the case(s). Upon success there is normally a small commission as a one off and this is true of any subsequent savings. The issue here is that while it is much cheaper upon success people feel aggrieved if the outcome does not show a reduction. When you buy a product you can see what you get but a service is different and it's harder to recognise that everything comes at a cost. There is also the issue that there is no chartered surveyor doing any work and in many cases a fly by night company.....Hopefully, now that the new Check, Challenge and Appeal system is in place, this will eliminate any and all of the fly by night business rates scam companies who set up one day then disappear the next, taking the money, doing nothing in return without every filing any accounts whilst trading as from the 01st April 2017 the agent has to be fully accountable.

Another issue is that people with no win no fee who don't see success feel that’s ok because it hasn't cost them anything but what they can't say for sure is was the work actually done. Do people really work for nothing remember and is there a reduction in there that perhaps needed a bit of real work or the refund would be small and while beneficial to them of no value to the company.

And then you get the idiots on these sites who keep saying do it yourself..... Well unless its cos your measurements are obviously wrong it isn’t that easy and you could actually be under assessed and therefore your rates will go up. It does cost nothing to submit the appeal but then you have to gather and present evidence and even go to a hearing having prepared a statement of case.  More idiots who didn't understand vent their frustrations and anger and then there are the stalwarts who trawl every site like this sitting and waiting to make comments which are mainly adverse and in some cases just personal abuse. You have the likes of one guy who sees himself as some sort of business rates super hero and he is linked to all the ratings sites constantly slagging everyone off under many user names when in reality he then goes after any people complaining offering to deal with it therefore using the sites as data. He always asks for their post codes....look for him/her! He/she also claims that you don't need to be a chartered surveyor but then he would as he is not one. There are people who come on here for fun and some who think it is a truly valuable site. IT REALLY CAN'T be if anyone can say anything and it is immediately uploaded never to be removed. Try it! Just look at the unrelated nonsense on all of these sites.

As with hospital treatment you can only speak as you find ... People who get reductions are happy and those who don't are not...the views of people repeating themselves constantly on these sites are suspect as why do they continually trawl these sites, almost daily looking for reasons to make a comment...bit OCD or guilty of a crime themselves! They are actually hooked on looking waiting for a new entry to make comment on.

The Valuation Office will do it for free as you suggest but unless the business knows what they are doing this is and can be a very complex process.

Action Fraud will have absolutely no interest in any fly by night rating company unless that is any actual fraud has taken place and Trading Standards do not get involved in any matter that concerns a business to business agreement unless again there has been a serious offence committed by the trader.

Any business who is looking to challenge their business rates should make sure that they only use a Chartered Surveyor. There are leading firms of Chartered Surveyors who cover the whole country, but for a small shop your local firm of Chartered Surveyors offering rating advice should be quite adequate. Also you can call the RICS consumer helpline.

http://www.rics.org/uk/footer/contact-us/rics-consumer-helplines/

and they should put you in touch with a local Chartered Surveyor who offers some free rating advice. If RICS can't help try Rating Surveyors' Association - there's a find a surveyor on their homepage.

I will post this advice on every ratings site and would encourage people to read through and see for themselves the rubbish and the obvious personal abuse blogged by people with axes to grind with nothing better to do in their lives.
