4 Problems UK Trades Face with Jobber

1. Slow UK Payments

Jobber payments take 3-5 business days to reach UK banks. With Toolfy, money hits your account same day via Faster Payments.

2. SMS Costs £15/Month Extra

Customer notifications via SMS cost £15/month on top of your Jobber plan. Toolfy includes 50 free SMS monthly.

3. Canadian Support Hours

Jobber support operates on Canadian time zones. Need help at 2pm GMT? Good luck. Toolfy has UK-based support during UK business hours.

4. Complex Setup Process

Jobber requires 2-3 hours of setup with multiple integrations. Toolfy works out of the box in 10 minutes.
