It wouldn't make for a great atmosphere if I reported him and he found out.

Gaz Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 How does it work, though? Don't you work in a builder's merchants? Presumably some customers have an idea of how much things will cost before they go in. Does he just mark up the prices and the folk pay whatever he asks without asking? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Surely there would be evidence in the form of him charging more for the same items than he does with other customers? Presumably all sales are recorded? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably you've got discretionary trade discount so it would be hard to prove it's been done maliciously. Maybe let a local paper, trading standards or a relevant charity know and suggest they send a white and a BAME shopper round to compare what they're charged. Or find a way of letting the screwed customers know. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I did have a quick look at the .gov site and it looks like you lose your whistleblowing protections if you go to the media. I'd maybe have a look on here to see if there's one that's suitable? https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/blowing-the-whistle-list-of-prescribed-people-and-bodies--2/whistleblowing-list-of-prescribed-people-and-bodies Competition and markets authority might touch it. edit: going by the description "Contact them about matters concerning the sale of goods or the supply of services, which adversely affect the interests of consumer" Absolutely no shame in grassing the guy in if this is true.

I’d be disappointed if there was no internal way of dealing with it. Remaining silent, if this is true, is complicity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
