I’d have to start again. <br/><br/>“The first two years I spent a lot of money on advertisements. <br/><br/>“I have hundreds of videos on YouTube, a ten minute video takes a long time to edit. I have at least 160 videos. People like to watch them. <br/><br/>“It’s mainly the word easy which is the problem. I call myself EasyJetwash. <br/><br/>“If you go through most of my social posts I higher case Easy and Jet. <br/><br/>“I try and keep it obvious that we are nothing to do with easyJet. <br/><br/>“They are hanging on to the word ‘easy’, saying that I am trying to confuse their customers into believing I am part of their group. <br/><br/>“I look very, very different. <br/><br/>“All the business I do, they don’t offer. <br/><br/>“The whole idea of calling my business EasyJetwash is that I made hard physical work very easy with the right equipment and it is really simple and easy to do.<br/><br/>“They [easyJet) don’t offer any exterior cleaning or building restoration, which I do. <br/><br/>“Which is why my trademark was accepted.

Who am I compared to a multi-billion pound corporation? <br/><br/>“Just a few weeks ago I paid off £800 on my credit card and I have no savings. I can’t fight them in the court.”<br/><br/>Jozsef applied to trademark his company name and was approved in April 2022.<br/><br/>The Hungarian-born business owner, who suffers from degenerative arthritis, says the stress has left him feeling “worried I’ll lose everything”.<br/><br/>He added: \
