Interesting call from PD today... New BC! Seems very nice and helpful, which is good. When I asked what happened to the old one, I was told 'she left'
Oh well, only a week or 2 to go.
Splashback went in today, but too dark to get a good look, and house all locked up. 70% confident it looks okay...

Our PCVs have been slooooooowww! I haven't actually seen a document for it yet. Things keep getting "added" but I have nothing in writing yet. Should I be worried? Our BC is pretty on the ball. But I'd like to see something? Might actually chase it up Monday.
Hi Cinderella_375,
I’m just touching base with you to see if you’d heard from your BC regarding your PVC’s? If you’d like me to follow up on this please let me know. Cheers, Ebony

I agree, Carol is exceptional!
Hi @monkeypants and @ma2531,
Thank you for your lovely comments about Carol. You’ll both be pleased to know that I’ve forward you comments onto the directors at the main PD office for them to hear of the great work and customer service Carol is providing. I’m sure Carol will love to hear them too. Cheers, Ebony
Hi all.. If any of you have got the Cat6 Data Network Pack, make sure your cable and sockets are all Cat6 as we’ve found out that the sockets we've been provided with are all Cat5e and possibly the same for the cable too
To check the sockets there’s a small engraving on the side of every socket mentioning the specification if it’s a Cat5e or a Cat6. For checking the cable, unfortunately there's no easy way and you have to read the marking on the cable and Google them to see if you find the specification.

I wouldn't stress too much the difference between Cat5E and Cat6 in most domestic installations is nothing. Cat5E can run at or very near gigabit just the same as Cat6. Also your network is really only as fast as your slowest component. If you really want network performance you'll need to go to a Cat6A solution which is rated at 10Gigabit. Unfortunately PD/Argus do not offer this at the moment.
Woo hoo, PCI completed, settlement booked, moved date planned and even called all the furniture guys to send my deliveries to my new home... one happy PD camper !!!

It's all about getting exactly what we pay for !!
If I'm paying for a Cat6 network why should I settle for a Cat5e no matter how similar it is to a Cat6..

How did you tell your cables were cat 5e and not cat 6? What markings did you find that showed this?
Water Bill STILL NOT GODDAMN SORTED!
And I have a maintenance repair team coming July 2nd. :rolleyes:

Fully agree with this. Paying for Cat6 is not paying for Cat5e.

currently building the Kallara 33 in the North. Just had lock up stage yesterday. So far, PD have been 10/10 from putting $1000 down to lock up. Our SS and BC and awesome and have had no dramas in terms of communication or false promises etc. Our SS always says "Your home is like my own so I want to do all I can to make you happy throughout the whole process". After reading many negative comments regarding SS and BC I must say i was worried but now feel lucky.
Hopefully going forward it stays this way until the end
Quick question, when lock-up was finished, did anyone have 1 or 2 pallets of bricks left? if so, what did you do with them? I'm goin to save about 60-100 for a letter box and extras, but I have 800.

I have about 4 pallets of bricks left over from lockup which was around 6 months ago. I recently told the SS to leave me at least 2 pallets (as they have sat for 6months so far) which I will use for basic Landscaping, retaining/building soil up, and a possible letter box.
BTW... my build went (almost) like a dream up to lockup...
