We now have 60% of the work done, so it is looking good. I received an appology over how everything has gone and the rest of the job should be finished tomorrow. I promised not to give him any more grief with my constant phone calls too. I know you shouldn't email when mad, so maybe shouldn't post either . There is now no need for me to carry-on any more and I retract any negative comments I have made about Precision Doors and Blinds. My first thoughts about Wayne were correct, he is a decent bloke. Why things went the way they did, I am not sure as we waited three weeks after the promised date after paying all upfront at his request. To me, it doesn't matter now, as the work that has been done is excellent and I have no worries about receiving the remainder 40% of the work.

What a load of #$$#^ I wrote above Three weeks later after all was promised to be finished, the mobile is never answered or turned off.

Quote: He has taken a fair bit of money from us for a security door and custom made venetian blinds. I would not suggest this is typical small business - more a case of a meeting a crook - Unfortunatly they exist. Any business that cannot afford to invest in themselves - ie request a deposit to show committment - and the rest comes as progress payment and a reasonable part of it is the final deal - is not worth dealling with. I got a similar sob story in europe in the late 80's and lost 100 pound to this sly pom who sold me a sob story of he had left the continent without any exchanged money - so could I cash a cheque as I was heading back to england the following day and had some spare pound notes. OK I bought it - his cheque bounced many times, the bank (and other banks) said not surprised. Once bitten - never again. Do I hate pom's no - that was just one individual. So Chase him - Get what you can from the deal - learn from it - and move on, and as you've done here - educate others on your mistake. Steve It will be neat but you won't have much freeboard.
