  • Totally agree. Went to view the show home today and that road is awful. I almost turned around and went home once I realized how bad it was. Joke of a company anyway, I was left pretty unimpressed that literally everything was an eye-wateringly overpriced extra. I’m surprised they put windows in as standard. by twistsouth (Fri 1st Oct 2021 2:38pm)
  • Yeah I laughed myself out the sales office. They are a joke and give not a single shit about customers as their attitude is “someone else will buy if you don’t”. They’re also lazy and don’t bother answering the phone or calling you back. It wasn’t a very good spec in the show home and they told me that was *after* £30k of extras added… I think you get a basic built-in wardrobe as standard but even the upgraded one isn’t soft-close and was tiny. The bath in the main bathroom was pathetic too (not available as a plumber shower either, only a tacked-on electric one). Super basic bath panel that didn’t fit properly. The panel was that cheap B&Q flexy white rubbish that you see usually on the cheapest baths and doesn’t align properly. Some of the tiling was nice but overall just quite a poor spec. For reference I’m currently living in an Avant home and the spec is far superior, despite them not being a particularly premium builder. Bottom line: lots of red flags with this development. I had a bad feeling the whole time I was there and won’t be back. by twistsouth (Sat 2nd Oct 2021 11:08pm)
  • House prices are nuts these days mate, I don’t blame you looking for somewhere more affordable. That’s kinda what I’m doing. by twistsouth (Sat 2nd Oct 2021 11:10pm)
  • I’ve had loads of these. They go straight in the bin. One time a lady turned up and asked “can I come in and check your equipment?” And I said “my partner checked my equipment last night and she was happy with its performance”. She said “I meant your television equipment”. I said “nope, you cannot.” And then she left. It was very easy. That was 3 years ago. I still get the letters. And they still go in the bin. The line about my gentleman sausage didn’t actually happen but I really wanted to say it to her. It took all my strength not to because she set it up so perfectly. by twistsouth (Sun 6th Aug 2023 8:13pm)
  • But it’s more fun to make up excuses. “I’m sorry we’re having a sacrificial cult ritual at the moment, it’s a bit messy in there. Jeffrey’s a right clutz sometimes. Classic Jeffrey, always spilling the goat blood!” by twistsouth (Sun 6th Aug 2023 8:17pm)
  • Give them all my personal details? How about no. I have no legal obligation to do so, and therefore: off they can feck. by twistsouth (Sun 6th Aug 2023 8:19pm)
  • Well not these pricks or they’d be addressing me by my name and not “current occupier” or whatever they say. I’m not making it any easier for them to personally harass me about something I don’t need to pay for. by twistsouth (Mon 7th Aug 2023 9:28am)
