Edgware Ex Servicemen Club - 239 Burnt Oak Broadway Edgware

Post by Dan vending »

tubz vending have kindly installed a pringles machine for a different operator in a site I had with them for a number of years.

Is the operator of this machine a member of this forum? If so can he get in touch?

Regards

Dan

tubz vending are becoming a pain again , they have also placed a tower in one of my sites , I contacted the operator and he has kindly agreed not to accept any more sites from tubz vending that already have a tower in them, im sure he has now realised they are ripping him off by selling him sites already occupied , this does nobody any favours apart from the site finders , no one should be accepting and paying for sites that already have towers, this behaviour needs to be stamped out.
Cheers

Seems to be a problem with both suppliers but seems neither of them what to do anything about it......

A no win situation for us I suspect!

To be honest it is quite easy for a telesales sitefinder to pass on a site without knowing it already has a machine in, it happened to me recently, but I had the manners not to leave my machine.
With the sitefinders not seeing the site, it can occasionally happen when the site owner doesn't make clear that they have one, and just accept it. In such situations it's up to the operator to not leave their machine, and get onto tubz vending/Hurley's for another site, I have got all mine replaced by Hurley's/Diane when I've turned up and found it already has one, no problems!

I have to kind of take the suppliers side in this, it's not for them to demand that their customers (which is what we all are) don't leave machines in other peole's sites, it's for us operators to be respectful to each other, and ask for replacement sites if we get given ones that other operators already have!!

....I shall now get down from my soap box :lol:

Hi Dan,

It's definately not one of mine! It's happened to me as well. tubz vending had fallen out with the customer so would'nt call them to resite. They pulled out eventually, not enough business for two machines.

Regards,

Pete
