I have called every day no call returned. Unbelievable. During the build everything was awesome.. soon as those keys are in your hot little hand, forget it. Nothing gets done. Why? It costs them money. Would I build again with PD? Probably not. Will I recommend them? Well 5 months ago yes, but now, not really. Hi humble, I did follow up regarding the cheque so I just wanted to touch base and see if you’ve either received your cheque or a call from the PD office to let you know when it would be delivered to you? Regards, Ebony Hi Ebony, I did get a call, hopefully I have the cheaque in the next couple of days. Its taken 14 weeks to get sorted. Hi humble, Thanks for getting back to me, I’m glad to see there has been some progress. I’m sorry to hear that it’s taken that long and I did try to follow up where possible for you. Fingers crossed that you receive it shortly. Cheers, Ebony Porter Davis Homes Questions?

Re: Porter Davis homes 5657Jun 25, 2012 2:40 pm Did they wait even untill the cheque for the progress payment clear ?? Re: Porter Davis homes 5658Jun 25, 2012 3:49 pm I hadn't thought about it but now you mention it, probably not . I think our bank paid by direct deposit, so no cheque to clear, but our slab payment was made in 4 parts (thanks, bank ) and I think the last one was made on the due date, so 7 days after invoice (or perhaps even a little later ) which was after the frame started. Re: Porter Davis homes 5659Jun 25, 2012 3:58 pm Hi Ebony, I am hoping you can help me! I have emailed and called my BC for the past 3 weeks and now have left 2 messages for her manager and have yet to hear from them. We moved in on 4th May and the electrical wiring on the front facade doesnt work/not live so we arent able to install our light fixtures. I know we could arrange for our own electrican to correct this but we shouldnt have to do this let alone pay for it. I will PM you my contact details. Thanks!
