Re: confidentiailty of builder agreement with a project buil 14Jun 19, 2018 12:17 pm jayasooriah Liliana Was this undertaking the result of your complaint? This is a fantastic outcome not only for you but all other Wisdom Homes customers. It is good to hear of somebody managing to take on a builder and get a fair outcome. Hi Liliana, Paragraph 2.7 in Wisdom Homes undertaking to remove the unfair contract term suggests ProductReview.com was involved. Notice of Removal - Wisdom Homes The Notice of Removal suggests Wisdom Homes enforced its Confidentiality Clause arguably indirectly through ProductReview.com Kind regards, Jaya That's interesting. I didn't realise that Product Review.com took their responsibilities to consumers so seriously. Good to know.

Notice of Removal - Wisdom Homes The Notice of Removal suggests Wisdom Homes enforced its Confidentiality Clause arguably indirectly through ProductReview.com Text pasted from the above link. "Notice: Removal of Reviews We wish to inform users that 81 reviews and 29 Q&A items have been removed from this listing page following correspondence with Wisdom Property Group Pty Ltd’s (“Wisdom Homes’”) legal representatives. Wisdom Homes has claimed that the reviews and Q&A items previously published on this page breach a contractual provision that we are informed prohibits customers of Wisdom Homes from writing reviews on the ProductReview website, amongst other restrictions. After considering this claim, we have decided to remove the material in question and will not be publishing reviews of Wisdom Homes by its customers until the relevant contractual terms have been changed." Hmmm. 81 deleted reviews and 29 deleted Q & A items on one site is a lot of "enforcing". 3in1 Supadiverta. Rainwater Harvesting Best Practice using syphonic drainage.

I stupidly didn't read the link - only your comments - because I assumed you were reposting your previous link to the undertaking made to the ACCC by Wisdom Homes. That puts a completely different light on the matter. Re: confidentiailty of builder agreement with a project buil 18Jun 19, 2018 4:14 pm I have to agree. 3in1 Supadiverta.

Re: confidentiailty of builder agreement with a project buil 19Jun 20, 2018 9:09 am Liliana Still if I was thinking of building with Wisdom Homes I think I would find that notice even more off-putting than the reviews themselves. ProductReview posting guidelines make an interesting read. https://www.productreview.com.au/i/review-guidelines.html Their legal threats policy reads: Removal Requests We consider reasoned and polite requests regarding content removal. If you believe a review or other content should be removed for breaching our Posting Guidelines, infringing or violating someone’s rights or otherwise violating the law, you should report this by clicking on the flag icon under the posts. Be detailed and factual as to why you think the content needs to be removed. The more evidence you provide, the easier it is for us to make a decision. Although we won't be able to reply to every request, rest assured that we investigate every one of them. Threatening requests We take a zero tolerance approach to threatening requests sent to ProductReview and reserve the right to take any or all of the following actions:
Perhaps this is a good model for forum administrators to consider. Re: confidentiailty of builder agreement with a project buil 20Jun 20, 2018 11:13 am Leonardo_23 Some builders insert (same type) cute clauses that you wouldn't believe. Agree. This thread's topic highlight's a serious issue and there should be a sticky on the thread as unfair contract clauses are indeed becoming common. New home buyers need to be aware of their legal rights and not subjected to bullying with baseless legal threats. As an aside, the current behaviour of an increasing number of Victorian builders who are inserting unfair contract clauses as a means to circumvent the legislated requirement for new home buyers to appoint the building surveyor also needs to be investigated but the powers that be in the VBA are high salaried toothless tigers who are failing to act despite their awareness of this serious issue. A Royal Commission into the building and plumbing industries is long overdue but let's not forget that the sustained call for a Royal Commission into the banking industry met with much resistance from many politicians.
