I had a visit from one the Able Group?s workmen last week.

After the visit I phoned up and requested a call back from the Manager. I was promised this but I received no call. I was promised I would receive a call approx. half an hour prior to the workman (Daimon) arriving. I received no call. I was in the shower when he arrived. I was very embarrassed when I opened the door, and had to ask him to wait outside whilst I dressed. I was expected to sign a form to say he started at 10 am and finished at 10.20 am but at no time was I advised to look at my watch. He actually only took 5 mins maximum, and all he did was squirt WD40 onto the hinges of the window. (Something I could have easily have done myself, had I been advised that this was probably/possibly the problem when I initially phoned up.) I was charged ?100.80....I was shocked ! He said I needed to keep the window mechanism clean but he did not clean this mechanism for me, as one would assume would be part of the service. (I was told the 'strip and service' was ?84 plus VAT.....) The other 10 mins he spent on the phone taking a private call inside MY property. NOT very professional. I tried to ask him further questions about the window and my door but he remained on the phone as he left and did not seem to want to talk to me. He had a quick look at my back door, (prior to his phone call) saying it had 'dropped' and it would take a few minutes to fix. I asked him nicely if he could please do this, considering I'd paid him over ?100 for a 5 min job, but he said he couldn't as it wasn't on the paperwork, and he was 'going away' at 1pm....What if my window had been a longer, more complex problem ?? Ridiculous!

He said I'd have to go through the whole procedure again, (and pay out at least another ?100 for this!!!) I think this was the least he could have done bearing in mind all of the above. He did not even have any records to state that all my card details had been given already. The Able Group have refused to give me any guarantee for this work, I was told I would get a ?re-visit? in an email and then told I would not be, I asked for their CEOs details, this was not given, I?ve had calls from them and then they?ve hung up when I?ve answered the phone. I will be posting this on the East Dulwich Forum too.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
