Full-day hire gave us half day work
Pre-booked a micro digger for the day to do some serious digging on a garden project. Digger was only delivered at 11am, implying that we had already lost 3 hours of working time. The equipment is also poorly maintained - typically, the bucket on a differ is secured using cotter pins, however on this digger, the cotter pins had been replaced by bolts and nuts. We need to change to a smaller bucket for the work we needed to do, but the bolts and nuts on the small bucket were totally rusted - we had to go and get spanners from the workshop to get them loosened, implying that we lost another hour's working time. So, we get charged a full day's hire for poorly maintained equipment that we could only use for half the day. Not impressed, despite having used Chase many times before, will not be using them again.
