Lifejacket servicing - recommendations?

Hello Folks

Any recommendations for people who do a postal service for servicing auto life jackets please?

I have one Ergofit that can be done under the current free offer, and while Crewsaver can do my others, I was keen to compare prices and turn around time, as my experience with Crewsaver this time last year was not good, and took several months to resolve.

Currently quoting £21.21 excluding VAT. Plus parts, plus £7.95 postage - 3 week return after payment.

Many thanks

Best wishes

Steve

I'd snap their hand off Steve.

I've just had to get 30 serviced in Denmark; £70 a pop (excuse the pun).
