I made the mistake of talking to one of their sales creeps at a trade show several years ago. 
 

Arranged for an after meet and he came to the house. He laid on all the patter about how membership was ‘essential’ for any small business. I asked him what he knew about ‘this’ business and how many small Arb businesses were subscribed. 
 

He had no idea. In fact, I don’t think he had much idea about any small business. He was just a salesman slogging his ass off trying to hit target. Lost all respect for him and FSB at that point. 
 

Several years after, I was on a job locally. I saw him stop his car and take a sneaky pic of my sign written vehicle. Dirty little sneak was still trying to grab leads. 
 

On the flip side, when we had a dispute with a builder who was a member of FSB, I contacted them to seek mediation and they could not have been less interested. (maybe that was ‘good’ for their member, but guaranteed I would would never be one)

 

On paper, it all looks very good. 
 

In reality, it’s just another QUANGO with flash c*nts drawing high salaries off membership subs. Follow the money Alex....
