If the above is true it is likely the HIP guys are not paying their suppliers. As long as you get your pound of flesh Would you buy blood diamonds, coffee produced by slaves or bananas grown by impoverised farmers? proably so. It would be karma if this HIP supplier went bust and you never got your home improvement pack. I certainly believe in a fair days work for a fair day pay. It is obvios there is something rotten somewhere when you see the prices they are asking. I thought the HIP badge was meant to ensure quality, butr this is clearly not the case if you listen to Chris Lister. Andrew that is a disgraceful attitude.

I am tempted as the price is good, even for the conveyancer. One particular HIP provider that I got a quote from are clearly using the a HIP as a “ loss leader “ but should I care?
