Re: Does my soil pipe need rodding?

These work really well. If you use one make sure you block up any plug holes that connect to the same soil pipe so that stuff doesn’t get forced where you don’t want it

Re: Have I been scammed? And if so how?

They buy low priced stuff to stay under the radar. Remember contactless has a limit over which you need a PIN number to be entered. I’ve had stuff like McDonalds charged to mine. If they can avoid human contact then there’s less chance of being caught
