Not normally given to name and shame but...

All I want to do is get my liferaft serviced in a manner which is moderately convenient to me. This means either they collect or I drop the thing off somewhere between Chichester and Southampton.

I tried:

Mayday Marine, Portsmouth. On four separate days the phone just goes through to a message service which cuts off half way through.

Messenger Marine, Emsworth - Phone message says number has been changed. I write it down and it's the same one as Mayday Marine. I try them again and get the same rubbish.

Adec Marine, Croydon - They will collect anywhere in SE UK but they can't go on board a boat to do so...Gordon Bennett.

Is there no-one out there who wants to take a few quid off me for this. I'd probably buy an EPIRB while I'm thinking about it so there ought to be a bit of profit for someone.
 
Thanks. Just spoke to them and they were really helpful. Taking money off punters like me really doesn't involve much more than picking up the phone and sounding like you want to help.
