I understood about returning the deposit amount, which is fine.
My concern is what amount you determine "full payment of the outstanding balance" to be...
Just for clarification.
Thanks,
Sean

I am proposing that once all works are complete the £2,082 is returned to you and on receipt of full payment of the outstanding balance in recognition of the issues that you have had to date.
As I said I think we should all jump on a call next week when Ken has returned to the office.

In my letter, I had asked for:
b) Produce the rest of the windows (with the correct designs) so that I never have to come back and deal with Everest ever again.
c) Because this whole debacle has been the internal fault of Everest, don’t charge me more than the existing/outstanding £18,816 as a way to say sorry for all of this.
In your email of 21st August, you stated:
"I am favouring option 1 in your letter and don’t have an issue discounting the order as you have suggested."
Which to me means that *everything* would cost me £18,816.
The £2082 was what I paid as the deposit.
Is there some confusion with this?..

I was away last week and Ken Lees is away until next Tuesday and he has the detail on the case.
The discount will be processed once all works are completed, I will arrange this . As you are on Finance we won’t reduce the balance as this will mean new documents will need to be produced and signed, I will simply raise a cheque.
To be clear I have only agreed to refund £2082 as laid out in your letter so I am unclear why I am being asked about free windows as I have never discussed this.
I think the prudent thing to do is for you , me and Ken to jump on a call next week and talk matters though.

Hello Mr Lawrence,
Apparently you were away week before last and I was rather busy last week. I wanted to check with you about the financial side of this thing.
You'd previously agreed to the 'discount' I'd asked for, so how do we ensure this doesn't somehow get lost in the administrata?
After all, with this having taken a year and quite some effort, I don't really want any nasty surprises later.Also, Ken Lees mentioned on a related note that you'd have to sign off production of the rest of the units - porch, living room, dining room, landing & upstairs toilet.
How do we make this all happen and not lose momentum?..
Thanks,
Sean Meacher

Well that's quite far...
I don't think it needs meeting in person.
I'll have a look on the website and then find out from him which are the closest available to what already exists.
Does that seem fair?On Tue, 26 Aug 2014 14:02:57 +0000, Richard Lawrence <Richard.Lawrence@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

DO you think and I know you are very busy it would be prudent for you to meet Ken at the branch and finalize matters ?

Hello Mr Lawrence,
Well that sounds promising, but I'm not getting my hopes up just yet...
If the other half of the units are to now be produced, there are couple of things to be aware of.
The ones for the upstairs toilet and the outside front porch both have special (patterned) glass.
Currently I haven't seen which style was selected, which would probably be a good idea before they are produced.
Would it be possible to find this out before they arrive at my home?
I can send pictures if that would help.
The toilet one could be described as 'small seashells' and the porch is what would best be described as 'vertical flutes'.
After all, it did take four months for sending me pictures of the stained glass and I don't think anyone wants a repeat of all that trouble...
Regards,

Thank you for your response, I have the drawings and I am keen we move forward. I am favouring option 1 in your letter and don’t have an issue discounting the order as you have suggested.
Ken Lees informs me that the units that are in branch are ready to be inspected but of course we need to be very clear exactly what is required if any need to be re ordered. I will speak to him today and see exactly what he is suggesting is the best way forward.

Hello,
Thank you for looking at this.
I'm afraid our office here is something of a dead zone with regards to mobile signals. Hence the preference for email.
What do you need to know?..
The 30 second version would be:
December: I was told there was 'a problem with the glass design', but not what it was.
I gave the surveyor a copy of the *original* design, expecting that it would be resized as appropriate for your differently sized panels, that any changes would be confirmed with me, then that could be produced.
What happened, that I discovered when I finally saw a picture in January, was that the original design had been cropped, I hadn't been informed of any changes, then Everest went ahead and made all the panels.
I sent them to-scale drawings of what I'd expected and asked them to correct their mistake.
After a bit of to-ing and fro-ing, it was obvious nothing was going to happen, yet there has been no movement to either correct their mistake, nor to let me cancel the thing.
Here we still are, seven months later.
I can provide you with electronic copies of what I sent to Mr Saunders, also the scale drawings of the panels as I was expecting them, if that would help.
Regards,
Sean Meacher
