THIS is a Ringmaster message from Thames Valley Police sent on behalf of Oxfordshire Trading Standards.
Trading Standards are warning people in South Oxfordshire of a company who are leaflet dropping then cold calling offering to do anything from small jobs to house extensions. They generally appear to be targeting elderly residents.
When calling, they state they are a company from Swindon who have a number of builders looking for work, then quote a cheap price. A number of complaints have been received, some from Wallingford, Goring & Benson. An expert is of the opinion that some of the work is of poor quality.
If someone is cold calling in your area who state they are from a Swindon company offering cheap work, please contact the Doorstep Crime Team at Trading Standards on 0845 051 0845 option 1 or 2, thank you.
