Investment Rep Cold Canvessing

Usually you expect door knockers to be double glazing but this week had a guy an Investment Rep from Edward Jones at the door selling his services. Is this common.

No, it's not common. See the FSA site for regulation

EJ are relatively new in the UK - I hadn't heard of them until they approached my previous company for a joint venture. The business is quite novel and aggressive.

I work with someone that used to be a door knocker for EJ. Quite high commission targets, hence high pressure sales.

I don't think they are able to complete a transaction in the first visit, but are known to revisit a house within minutes.
