The next whitegoods meeting has been scheduled for February 29th 2008 to be held at the Millers Hotel in Sibson once more. Of course the meeting is open to non-members as well as members to attend and entrance is free, so you can attend easily. We are looking forward to some new product introductions, news on what the TA has been up to over the past few months and how it is progressing forward. We will have some update on taking the COP forward and working with the OFT to improve standards as well as updates on technical information and what we are doing about it. As usual we expect it to be a very interesting day for all who attend. |

A few days ago it came to our attention that spare parts marketing company eSpares had started a scheme to offer fixed labour cost repairs to consumers. This now means with the members of the association as well as the companies that operate on repairs@ to the code of practice or indeed often an even higher standard, exceeds 350 businesses across the UK.
However we were somewhat flattered when we realised that the "charter" adopted by eSpares was none other than the UK Whitegoods Charter as it was originally known which evolved into the Whitegoods Trade Association Charter . |

The Whitegoods Trade Association is to issue ID cards to all its members in a new scheme set to begin rolling out in November 2007. The cards offer instant identity of a verified WTA member to anyone, primarily to enable people to quickly identify a quality engineer that works to the WTA Code Of Practice. This gives the engineer's customers the reassurance that they are bona fide repairers and the security of knowing that they work to an industry agreed standard as well as being regulated. This is a case of the engineers working towards greater safety and reassurance for the public as well as discouraging rogue traders which are as damaging to the industry as they are to the public. |
