MrHappy Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Thanks for joining From what i have read, the only mistake DPR has made is to place a logo on their website before first gaining the approval from SSAIB, which they have since obtained, albeit verbally. just for clarification, DPR Secure is also a member of The Security Systemsand Alarms Inspection Board (SSAIB), which confirms our professionalism and provides complete peace of mind and confidence to all our domestic security customers. The SSAIB are very strict on the correct running of a security company and constantly vet our staff, work tasks and premises to ensure the customer receives a first class service All of DPR Secure’s work complies with the relevant Britishor European Standards for intruder alarm systems and we are regularly inspected by the SSAIB (Security Systems & Alarms Inspection Board). We work to stringent quality control procedures which ensure complete peace of mind and confidence to all our commercial security customers where the claims made in their on-line brochure, I'd image is there quite a fine line between "mistake" & false advertising ? A claim of holding a "trustmark" was also made, has anyone explained why DPR Ltd; also appear to be absent from that list too ? Mr Veritas God
Cubit Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Clearly there are an awful lot of people and businesses out there feeling threatened to evoke such an emotional response.....or rather to engage in petty squabble. From what i have read, the only mistake DPR has made is to place a logo on their website before first gaining the approval from SSAIB, which they have since obtained, albeit verbally. They made a small mistake. Quote me a new business that hasn't. I'm just glad some of the bloggers aren't heading up Business Link, or the department for innovation, otherwise any entrepreneurial flair would be instantly quashed at the first sight of a business trying to push the boundaries in order to find a foothold in the marketplace. Focus on your own business, and switch the news on from time to time to reflect on other places on the planet, like Syria, where you have to queue for five hours to get a loaf of bread and a bottle of water. It's tough for all of us out there at the moment, but trying to ruin another business is not the answer. Let them learn from their lesson and move on. Good luck to Team GB. Just a logo??? What about their website spouting complete bollox? Their sold called explanations on here - more bollox What about their roofing company and it's so called claims? now, lets consider Gas Safe shall we - yep, more lies and bollox on their part.
MrHappy Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Just a logo??? more lies and bollox on their part. more bollox that the average hotdog... Mr Veritas God
Cubit Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 So far, NFRC, Constructionline, SSAIB, Gas Safe and NICEIC Have all magically disappeared. Seems someone's been busy fending off irate phone calls and likely threats of legal action. Not bad for a simple error with a logo.
Scotmod Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 This has gone a bit panto now hasn't it. Oh no we haven't. Oh yes we do!
Cubit Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Constructionline won't feck about like SSAIB. I think Gas Safe might be the one to trouble them most. Serious legal implications there.
PeterJames Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Northern The point that you do not appear to get is, those that have the badges have worked hard and paid hard earned money on training and H&S and much more. DPR have not just taken the logos they have also lied on their website deliberately misleading people into thinking that they too have earnt those badges. Then to ad insult to injury DPR tries to infer that we are just attacking them because we are jealous how would you expect us to react?

Being accredited is not necessarily worthwhile - depends on work done type etc. High standards, compliance etc. Like you say, all to no avail when some bunch of lying, scheming chancers behave like they have done.
sixwheeledbeast Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Further clarification DPR has been in further contact with SSAIB and has clarified its understanding of the SSAIB rules concerning the use of logos. Our understanding was that because we always use SSAIB sub-contractors where a URN system is required, we could emphasize this by the inclusion of the SSAIB logo. We now understand that this is not the case and the logo will be removed as soon as our web designer can do this. ... The content of this posting has been discussed and agreed with SSAIB. In light of this I feel the current topic title is incorrect. Can this please be updated, thank you.
