How do I purchase credits?
You will be prompted to purchase credits when requesting the client contact details if your credit balance is insufficient. Alternatively you can check your current balance or purchase Credits from the My Account page. (You must be logged in to see this page)


How do I contact a client?
From the 'View Jobs' page click on the more information icon on the left of the row and from there click the 'Ask Question' button. Your details and that of the clients will not be disclosed. You can use this feature to request more details or confirm something for the client. If you have all the information you need you can send a quote. Details are only exchanged when you request the contact details of a client who has accepted your quote.

How will I know if my quote was successful?
You will be notified by email if a client accepts your quote.
In addition you can go to the 'My Account' section of the website after you have logged in. This section shows the status of any quotes you have sent.

From here you can request contact details, request feedback, view messages, update your account, view feedback, purchase Credits and request email alerts.


How can I get the best out of the service?
This will depend on the way that you deal with the Job Requests. Your best options are to:
  • Carefully read the Job Requests before selecting the one that interest you. You can sort them by post code to narrow down the ones in your area.
  • Contact the client as soon as possible and ask any questions you need to clarify what the job requires.
  • Offer your best possible quote, of course! The client will only receive a maximum of 5 quotes, however you can quote more than once if you are competitive!
The job was cancelled after I requested the clients details will I get my credits back?
If this happens let us know through the 'Contact Us' form so we can help.

How does the feedback system work?
At MyFitter we only allow clients to leave feedback who have had work carried out from a job which they posted on the site for tender and then accepted a genuine quote from a fitter registered on the site. 
The feedback system works in two ways:
  • It enables new clients to check what previous clients have said about a Fitter they have used.
  • It encourages the Fitters to maintain their high standards in order to get work on a continuing basis by rewarding good fitters and punishing bad ones.
You have a strong incentive to do your best and get great feedback, which increases your chances of getting more work, and getting more good feedback.

We constantly monitor the website to ensure the information is genuine and up to date.
