NB: They said they have not tested electrics yet as it is last thing they do.

It’s her own van, she is self employed lady painter and decorator. She is of course happy to pay diagnostic fee and for any electrical repairs needed on top. She is concerned that the AA tested and found no faults but several electrical faults flagged up but his machine could not identify them so advised go to Renault…

Thank you for everyone’s help kitchen has been completely cancelled without penalty 🙂

Hi, thank you for responses. It was standard stuff they ordered to uplift and rearrange their kitchen. They had the kitchen measured and discussed available new cupboard/worktops etc. from the Homebase range to best fit the new planned layout. They chose from what was available and planned to arrange own contacts to fit it…

It’s Homebase

They did order in store. I will ask to see contract and see what small print says. They are elderly couple so I guess these stores do experience these situations where customers circumstances change. I just wondered if anyone on here has encountered similar experience.

Thanks I will get him to try all the advice on here and we will of course help them until they get organised :)

Yes he is on the electoral register.

He applied online to Nationwide as he banks with them.

I am happy to stay with them for the interim and until arears is paid but am disappointed that no email was sent to prompt tariff was ending in August, we have automatically been on a high tariff since August which clearly we would not have opted for. Until I spoke to them this week they had not logged recent readings I…

Just to clarify the points you raised AndyBSG my brothers wife had suddenly & tragically passed away shortly before my father discovered my brothers deception. The illicit bank transfers had already taken place before she died and the later realisation that she too was highly likely to have known (& possibly even been…

Well I thought I had begun to put this behind me but maybe I spoke too soon :0( Having not seen or heard from any of my wider family members on dads side since his funeral has been dissapointing but I think it was all somewhat of an elephant in the room for many of them. The consolation of not seeing anyone has been at…

I am ok thank you, getting on with my life but missing my dad & especially dreading our first Christmas without him. Still feel periods of great sadness & confusion about everything but I no longer let those thoughts consume my days. My children & grandchildren are my whole world. Thank you for asking & I wish everyone on…

Sorry guys...so desperately sad and tearful. My brother caused such incredible pain I feel this sadness will never leave me x

Struggling :0(

On Tuesday we put my lovely dad to rest with a very apt and personal ceremony with words and music chosen by myself and my sons. All his great grandchildren who loved him dearly attended and behaved beautifully throughout bless them. A vast number of old and new friends, past colleagues and extended family attended showing…

I am not at all offended EE it was very lovely gesture bless you but I am so sensitive about anyone thinking anything I do or have done for dad was in any way money motivated so it was worrying me a little :o It is now Monday and I have some useful contacts of people who I can speak to now the weekend is over, I feel…

I sincerely appreciate everyones support and kind messages and it is important to me to be able to continue to come here for this kind of help and to share my experiences in the hope it will help safeguard others but...please please...and I know people mean well by their gestures and I am very grateful so hope no-one takes…

Please know everyones responses always help me. It is reasuring to drop in when things get too much & I can guage the views of strangers when I am full of self-doubt. Every time I come back on here I have felt reasurance that I am 'normal' & sometimes I get a reality check which helps me get things in perspective & that is…

Actually they have lived together a total of 23 years with just a 4 year break in between. Dads partner got in complete panick when he got ill six weeks ago. He has never been ill & from him looking after her & doing everything for her he was suddenly in pain & needed help. She is very elderly so was big shock for her, I…
