YouTube 'Pranksters' get their come-uppance :-)

Looks fake as fuck.

And if not the plumber was just as much a dick for being that stereotypical plumber. Willing to sort out a flood but not leaky taps?
Imagine, a tradesman working out of hours thinking a leaky tap warranted less immediate attention than a flooded house might. Tit.

Imagine, a tradesman getting called to a disaster and instead finding it's a five-minute-fix for which he is still going to get paid, but acts up for the camera!

I'm not a gullible "tit".

Did you listen to the call they made? It was made clear that it was an emergency service only and that any other works would be charged as extras.

So what and why is 'stereotypical' about the trades' behaviour?

What, that "real" call?

Did you ever suppose that these people are media-savvy, and they make money by people like you eating this shit up?

Don't mind me. Just like, comment and subscribe :thumbs:

I couldn't give a shit whether it's real or fake and in any case it's irrelevant to the point I made.

Stereotype away though if that's your bag.

Just imagine an emergency plumber being called to what he has been told is a flood & then gets "pranked" How would you think he would react? He certainly would not fix a dripping tap. He would be paid regardless because he is on call & has been logged for the job.

Who's playing for this if real? I don't think it is. That's what makes me think gtf rather than anything else.
 
What point did you make? What is your issue? The fact that I mentioned that there's a stereotype about plumbers taking advantage?
The fact that you said he was a dick for not fixing a leaky tap when he was called out for a flood, you dolt.

In other words, refusing to being taken advantage of.

He's not being taken advantage of, he's a paid actor :D

Playing or paying? If paying then the council/HA or as they were warned on the phone the pranksters.

I'm going for "It isn't real and there are people who will actually argue anything than admit they got fooled".

I am happy to hold my hands in the air if it is fake but it happened about 10 days ago & is widely reported but I have not seen anyone else saying that it is fake.
 
This isn't true is it?
:confused: If you are a council tenant & have a legitimate reason to call the emergency plumber then the council foot the bill. I presume it is the same with HAs. One the extended youtube clip the pranksters are warned that they will have to pay if it is not an emergency and is a containable leak.

Of course, i read your post as council pays no matter what. apols.

Back to the likelihood of a group of young Irish people having a council flat.
 
Fucking Hell. You need other people to tell you?
I don't need other people to tell me.

Just suppose that it is a prank that goes wrong? What would have to happen for you to think it is genuine? Or put it another way why are you so convinced it is fake?
