Frequently asked questions
I work on canal-side flats. Should I say so?
Yes. Mention canal-side, flat and city-centre work in your profile description, so customers who need that experience can find you. Describing access arrangements also helps when customers compare quotes.
Does a base in Sutton Coldfield cover the city centre?
It can, depending on your radius. Alerts are based on distance from your base postcode, so set it to the place you work from most.
Do I need a separate plan for the Black Country or Solihull?
No. One plan covers you. Pro reaches about 30 miles from your base, which takes in both areas from a central Birmingham postcode. Unlimited gives nationwide access.
