Use of Logo.

[tommer9]

Hi-de-hi,

 

I believe we did used to sell vehicle stickers, the generic 'Cares for Trees', some time ago but we don't now.

 

In terms displaying the logo, the only people allowed to do so are the 'ARB Approved Contractors' and 'Registered Consultants', no level of membership, not even 'Fellows' are permitted to do so but they can make written reference to such and use the associated post-nominals, i.e Fred Blogs is a Fellow of the Arb Association with F.Arbor.A

 

This situation regarding members using the logo and probably highlighting such, i.e. 'Arb Assoc MEMBER', has been previously discussed and members views canvassed but currently it is 'status quo'.

 

Cheers all..

Paul

Over here on the other side of the pond The TCIA and perhaps to a lesser extent the ISA strongly enforce folks using decals or logo's of organizations they claim to belong to but are not. In some cases when warnings are not observed legal action is taken and that seems to get their attention pretty fast!.

Hi there,

 

Likewise, we have previously taken legal action succesfully against a contractor for persistently 'mis-using' the ARB Approved logo when he was not...it cost him dearly approx £30k (mainly legal fees as it dragged on for months.)

 

Over here Trading Standards are alos intersted to hear about persistent offenders and, often in conjucntion with otehr issues, take action for 'mis-representation.'

 

Cheers..
