    Invoice dispute

    That hurts saying it like that giving up the fight but you are right I have. I kind of have to in case I have issues with the system. I would only post something truthful but if I do post something it will be obvious who it is and then if I need support I don't think they will be quick to help.

    Invoice dispute

    Spoke to owner and they are sticking to it. I'm annoyed by it. Lesson learned for future. I'll have to chalk it up but warning for anyone have it in writing about what happens if more or less work is done and what that changes in price.

    Invoice dispute

    Very interesting. Honestly I feel like it's a bit of a tactic by them. Unless you have it in writing before hand of what one less panel is or one more then you have a dispute. I'm going to see what happens tomorrow if they produce a new invoice and will pay the price of 12+3. I don't want to be...

    Invoice dispute

    The 100 is the cost of the panel. The 300 would include labour and fitting of it. They finished early and started on another job locally.

    Invoice dispute

    I was thinking along these lines. I'm not particularly happy about how it has played out but I don't think it's right for me to withhold payment for circa 5k and be in dispute on that amount. That said I am right here and I haven't gone mad

    Invoice dispute

    Thanks for reply and yes that was my approach going back with 12 + 3. It is the same calc going back that way of 17-2 (300*2). I think it's bizarre they are not accepting that logic. They sized the 17 panel system not me and then said actually it's only going to be 15. If this ends up with...

    Invoice dispute

    Hi Got solar panels and other associated work installed last week. Initially got a quote for 12 and then after a site visit they said actually you can fit 17 so got a quote for 17 panels. Difference in quote of 1500 which works out 300 per panel. Come the day of the install they say actually...

    Which broadband provider?

    Switch over today to pure went smoothly. Took the advice mentioned to switch the ssid and password to old router info and that worked perfectly (just googled it). For anyone with pure the password for admin on the router is the WiFi password they give out.

    Which broadband provider?

    I have seen it mentioned and commented on another thread about utilities before but I really don't understand why companies don't have a policy of that you price jumps up to x price but if you renew online then you can get the good deal. Customer doesn't have to waste time ringing up and they...

    Which broadband provider?

    Just had the yearly dance with internet providers with sky. The price went to 60 euros a month. I eventually got through to them and they offered me 50 a month. I said look you offer new customers 30 a month let me have that deal they said no. They then said you want to go through the hassle of...

    Make sure you get everything in writing. Get it checked over and ensure you get all the info possible. Make sure if you do go down the redundancy route the tax is calculated right - ask for a mock payslip in advance. Ensure you letter from them allows you to claim benefits from day 1. Once you...

    Smart Phone recommendations please

    Not that's WhatsApp uses a massive amount of data but just be careful with a pay as you sim and a smart phone. Know about your data usage when not connected to WiFi and how to turn of mobile data if your plan doesn't support much data usage. I am running a Motorola g6 - apart from a recent...

    Explain the "professional advice" options for me for a money makeover?

    What about speaking to the two people on here who appear to have their own business via a private professional basis as a starter and see how you get on. I have no connection with anyone on here.
