  1. Hi Thank you, I have arranged a call, but just wanted to be armed with the facts in advance, my main point of question is, 1 should there be a hollow sound - I guess not, but if there is, does it constitute a fault on the installation, and to rectify does it need to be done again, or can it be fixed? if they are to be fixed, at what point do you remove everything presuming it will get worse and was not done right, or just spot fix 20 tiles out of 120 ? thank you
  2. Hi by independent report, do you mean another surveyor? I am guessing it makes sense to speak to my own surveyor first to see their position on it. IE they may not be happy with it either who knows. The tiles were installed late Jan, the heating was not turned on till 3 week post install, I noticed the fault a week ago, 8-10 weeks I guess in total. - I do not have dates sorry.
  3. Hi, the tiles were £40/sqm and the installation was £45/sqm. Yes the builder is the company who did the job, they brought in a tiling company to install, they sent me to their tile supplier and I picked the tiles paid the shop directly. thank you.
  4. Hi all, I've finally had my new tiles fitted, after the previous ones all came loose, hollow. Over time I've spoke to so many surveyors and learned a little about tiling. I ended up tiling the whole of my house a long with some other work, the job was speced by a surveyor and sent for tender to a few builders the company have been great and only a small part of the large sum owed has been requested. 6 weeks post install I have 20% hollow tiles already. They are plank style but not cheap ones, they were put down with a full bed on a screed, and the ufh was off for weeks before, and was not put back on for weeks after. The adhesive was the correct flexible one and the gap was 3mm on the grout. The screed is laid on top of concrete. The tiller used some type of clamp on the corner of each tile to make sure they were lined up, to be honest it's ok but not brilliant there are some discrepancies. my wonder if if is the same thing is happening as before what else could be up? And is the fact that about 20% of them sounding hollow at this point a problem, do I need to wait and see if they loosen more or should I be asking for it to be resolved, refitted? The surveyor should be taking this up with the builder..I just wanted some info before I speak to the surveyor thanks
  5. The only contract i see is in english, which is the invoice the only terms (not called terms on the invoice) is that it says pay within a certain date, saying that they emailed and called asking for the money 3 months after the date that is on the invoice. From the thread i posted earlier it said uk DC companies could buy the debts from overseas and they maybe enforceable? so just to check when you say DC companies can do nothing, they cant take you to court? serve papers, get a ccj against uk? a uk based company?
  6. think there maybe some confusion i was just replying to your comment about being on here 4 years to make it clear in 4 years ive used the site only once to defend a parking fine which i won in court my question is about the jurisdiction which i found a thread on this site that seemed to say they could happily sell the debt to a uk dc agency and chase me here for it https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?250889-Can-I-Be-Sued-For-An-Overseas-Debt-correct-as-at-22.09.2015
  7. ok thanks is the jurisdiction of a uk court on a foreign debt some sort of legally binding thing? or an opinion? I dont post much most of my posts were about a parking fine i got and eventually after 4 years i won the case in court so thought i would come back as you guys have the insights thank you again
  8. any particular reason? would love to know where i stand legally with the way they have proceeded finding it hard to find anything in regards to invoices and overseas etc thank you
  9. I have had issues before posting names where they took info from the threads so didnt think it was best posting the names? that was in relation to a parking offence though ...? dont mind sending it or whatever is best? they have my details as in name address phone etc and they sent me an invoice so i presume i gave them i dont have a copy of what the original message was, it may have been through their website The person i spoke to agreed they bought the company after all this happened and they have no records of the calls I received the invoice on 02/06 I then got an email on 01/09 straight after a call stating the following "We have unfortunately still not received your payment for the ticket. If we do not receive this payment by the start of next week, we will have to give your ticket to someone else. Hope to hear from you. Regards," I then replied saying that i wouldnt be able to attend along with a call to the same effect which was agreed, they asked me to put it in writing which i did. on 01/09 - that was the end of it till this letter thank you
  10. Hi All, I enquired about a ticket for an event in Amsterdam last year through a Danish company, they sent me an invoice for 445euros and I decided not to go. They phoned me and resent the invoice to which I replied that I would not be attending. They sent me an email stating that if I didn't pay they would be offering the ticket to someone else and I responded saying its fine I am not coming. Then a year later I get a letter from a UK debt collection agency - is it just me or is this as ridiculous as it sounds? I tried to speak to them on the phone but they are ridiculous and seem to feel justified that I hadnt cancelled it in time and they were ok to pursue me.
  11. Actually a great point I forgot to mention - thanks first of all, I stopped posting here, I made up a user name and posted elsewhere due to park without ease threatening use of the screenshots of the forum as evidence (which they did) but the conveniently cut out a bit they liked (at the time i had no clue what i was in for so it worried me). In the end I used the forum posting myself as part of the defence, as stated in the first post, i never parked in the car park - i parked on a grass verge outside the car park - what I would like to say is, be careful what you post online in your username, mainly because idiots harass you via email and stalk your LinkedIn and social media (if they are somehow connected) to help them bully you into paying. BTW all of the forum stuff was no use the judge was not interested didn't read any of it. the main reason i came back to post was to help people understand the fears that these bullies put you under, how it's easier to give in and pay but that if you persist - you can win
  12. how would i have been 250£ better off and wound it up sooner?
