The Office of Fair Trading is warning people that the summer is an opportune time for rogue traders. Last year, advice service Consumer Direct received more than 5,300 complaints about traders offering home maintenance work on the doorstep, a 16 per cent rise from the previous year, with complaints peaking in the summer months from July through to the autumn.
Supported by several high profile stars, including Esther Rantzen, the OFT is driving an awareness campaign urging householders to be cautious and take time to think about people who call at the door.
The campaign is to help people recognise the warning signs. Full details of the campaign can be found on our 'Latest News' page.
