Hi there, I noticed some comments to my old post here. Ok Parklane, no problem. I've been doing a bit of work, mostly superficial re-decorating type, since 2009, after many years of neglect. I'd really prefer not to have to be doing it at all, but things go to pot otherwise. All I need now...

Hello Folks, My cooker was not available at the fitting date and will not be available for 3 weeks approx. Waited in on the day with no update from kitchen co. but the supplier rang me directly late in the evening and offered a loan of a cooker a step down from the one ordered and threw in...

Oh thank you fraggle for your kind comments, yes I got very uptight when I was constantly drawing a blank when I tried to get them to confirm that my appliances would be available, they were so vague. I had other questions about piping and emailed and rang but totally ignored. Yes they...

Brendan, Apologies accepted. I do not agree about my story being "odd", but what I do think is odd (in the sense of unexpected of a man in your position) you are not reading my posts properly before replying. I most certainly did not request to "see" the appliances, that would be a bit...

Brendan, I cannot let you get away with saying I am a difficult customer, you know very little about me, so please do not get so personal. I pay all my bills and am an upstanding customer in many businesses. I did not ask to see the cabinets they have manufactured as you would know if you...

I feel it will be a mini-miracle at this stage if things go anyway smooth. Oh I agree, talk of solicitors it a bit too early, but may have to to get my money back.

Just checked the figures, the kitchen is to cost 7,315 euros, I have paid 4,471 euro, but I have received no proper invoice, only statement and assertive letter saying all but 517 euro must be paid when fitters arrive. Sent several emails this morning, no reply. They are arriving tomorrow and...

Ok i see what you mean now. I dont want to cast aspersions against them yet either, but they have communicated very poorly with me and not addressed my concerns. Phonecalls, emails, etc go unanswered. Even calling in there on Saturday was no good really. I asked for an invoice and the ones...

There is an amount of €517 which they say is finally due on completion of the kitchen, but that is only a small fraction of what the kitchen is costing so its not much of an insurance if things go wrong.

Hi Mercman, Sorry but I don't understand where you're coming from.. this is not a question of them not fitting the kitchen, but it is a matter of whether they have the correct appliances. Its a bit early to even think of solicitors.

Thanks Sandals. I did speak to the manager when I called in on Saturday but he did not seem to know anything about my kitchen. I will try yet again tomorrow.

The appliances are not due until Wednesday, they want all the money (bar about €500) on Tuesday. I want confirmation, before I pay out any more money, that the appliances I ordered are available. I have previously had bad experience with Mastercare where they tried to fob off a different...

Hi Skybox, I did sign a docket, but the appliance model numbers or brand is not shown on it. There is a lady there who is in charge of ordering the appliances and she gave me a docket showing the model numbers and brand names of the ones I want. I called in there today and she could not...

Hi Sue Ellen, thanks but I do not have a credit card, only a debit card.

I have ordered a new kitchen from xyz Ltd and they are supposed to fit next week. I have twice received a letter from them stating that I will have to pay a certain amount when they arrive to fit the kitchen otherwise they won't be fitting it. I have already paid about half the quoted cost...

Where to buy SatNav Well..I want to navigate Irish roads first of all, and have spoken directions, good size screen. Maybe option to have European and Australian maps also. As regards price, I dont really know how much I should be paying (I really know very little about Sat Navs)

I have decided to buy a Garmin SatNav due to the comments I read on another thread here ( Best Sat Nav for use in Ireland.). So, would anybody know a good place to purchase it? As regards price, customer service etc.

Hi Ogggster, I am in the same position now, looking for mechanic to check out a car for me. I rang that number 1850 909090 but gettting message from Eircom saying the number is no longer in service. Did you have any luck in finding someone reliable?

I am thinking of buying a Ford Focus 2008 second hand car and need to have it checked out mechanically etc. Would appreciate if anyone who has had this done before could recommend a service provider for this kind of check. Also what price is reasonable to pay assuming it passes my check -...

ONQ, my reading of it is that if any of the other conditions pertain to a single family dwelling then it appears a bunded tank would be required. By the way, I have discovered a previous thread on this site relating to oil tanks: http://www.askaboutmoney.com/showthread.php?p=933244 I...
