Take the worry out of shopping around by using one of our approved traders. We have been running an approved traders scheme since January 2007, and have hundreds of responses from satisfied local residents that prove our members come up with the goods.
We have now merged our scheme with other local authority schemes under the Buy With Confidence logo. Our scheme was previously called Customer First – and although the name’s changed, that’s what our members still set out to do.
Buy with Confidence approved traders can be accessed through this link:
http://www.buywithconfidence.gov.uk
Can we guarantee these businesses will never let you down? Of course not – but our members have a good record, and we believe your problem would be dealt with fairly and promptly if something did go wrong.
If you would like details of current members of this scheme, or would like to nominate a local trader, shop or other business dealing with consumers, please contact Trading Standards on 01225 396753.
The council is committed to ensuring the traders on this scheme treat all people fairly, and do not discriminate on the grounds of age, race, disability, gender, religion or sexual orientation. Please contact us if a member is unfair or discriminatory or fails to meet our standards in any other way.
Let us take the headache out of finding traders you can trust. All the businesses on this web site have been vetted and approved by Trading Standards to ensure that they operate in a legal, honest and fair way.
