I have tried to get a banks references in order to rent a property! I was meant to be moving in today so put the reference request into the bank last Thursday and was told I would have it by Monday.....Monday came and nothing....Tuesday came and nothing so I went into the bank on yesterday morning(wednesday) only to find out it hasnt yet been done because..........my signature has changed ever so slightly since I opened my account 5 years ago!! I have now had to move my move in date to Saturday and STILL have not got a reference apparently it will be faxed today. They never thought to call me to check if it was my signature and that it was actually me to request the reference? They never thought to ask me to go into a branch with ID to confirm it was me..no nothing they though oh well Ill just leave it, if she wants it so badly then she will just have to chase it!! Plus its costing me ?8.5 to (not) get this done!! Not a happy chappy!!


What are other people experiences?

      Party wall dispute - what now?

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      It is particularly important that you have a survey done before the work commences (which should be paid for by your neighbour) - this allows a 'before and after' picture to identify any issues caused by your neighbour's work - which again must be remedied at his expense. As this all must be paid for by your neighbour (under law) it may be an acceptable risk to commission your own survey (again your right to choose the surveyor although your neighbour can offer his own surveyor or structural engineer, which is normally cheaper for him, if you are prepared to trust that).  You might additionally, although the surveyor should also do this, photograph any areas in your property you believe may be at risk - new cracks in plasterwork are his responsibility to remedy as well. Your neighbour is quite wrong to suggest that the work he is intending does not fall into the party wall legislation - and informing both Southwark and the ground landlord of his intentions is a good first step. As others have said, a solicitor's letter to remind him of his legal obligations might be an expense worth bearing. The potential damage to his and your property could be irreparable. Other than choice of surveyor (his or yours) there are no other areas of negotiation - the party wall legislation is surprisingly clear on this, I believe.

      Tommy was super efficient and polite.  He took time to dismantle my boiler properly and give it a thorough service.  He explained to me exactly what he was doing and charged fairly.  I really recommend Tommy!
