Live Q&A with British Gypsum, Friday 1 May

[Deleted member 46546]

Yes it did but it was via Zoom about 40 odd on it

So BG must have had an answer ready for the question they were going to ask? Why can't you just copy and paste that answer in here?

Do your bosses never learn Gary?

TBH Andy they got so little interest and the fact that questions were being asked this afternoon that the decision was made to reply to all of them next week. Do it just the once instead of revisiting it, in all fairness they have got quite a big job on at the moment.
In my personal opinion I can’t see that they will be able to tell you an exact date when plaster will be in a specific merchants. What I do know is that they will try their best to distribute it evenly so that the plaster is available all over.

Did Qna happen on Facebook yesterday @The Apprentice via the Plasterer’s scheme ?

I was on the chat last night as I’m in the scheme . Not much to talk about really just that they are allocating supplies to all merchants in a fair and even manner .They are also going to send out half a pallet of finish direct to members homes

Waste of time starting the thread, pretending to give a fu ck.

@BritishGypsum can we expect an increase in price? What are your thoughts on merchants like this one in Wakefield capitalising on the shortage?

The MD of BG said last night there is no price increase but obviously can’t control what the merchants do
