We’re continually surprised by the fact that despite the publicity (online/in the press) about the shocking performance, fes  and service that Peverel / Solitaire / Consensus Business Group of property management companies provide, we receive very little communications / postings from existing or former employees of these companies. The only ‘sniff’ of a Peverel / CBG employee possibly contributing to TTAS, was ‘Dalston Square‘ who posted:- Having a little knowledge of this website for months now I have recently received an internal e-mail accusing us of helping “Phoenix” I have come [...]

We always report messages that we receive from residents with Peverel / Solitaire problems, who have contacted us by e-mail, but we thought we’d also post a few comments that we receive via our Facebook page – that non ‘facebookers’ may not have read. Here are a few messages:- Hi – Solitaire are driving me crazy. I wrote a formal letter of compliant to them on 17th June about the disgusting state of this development here in Mountsorrel, Leics. To dtae I have had no [...]

Following the success of the CARLEX campaign from late last year until the election, their campaign took a bit of time off to focus where their efforts would be directed. During this period the website was taken offline for redevelopment and TTAS are pleased to let you all know that once again they are back online. The web link has changed and it is now http://www.carlexag.org due to domain registration problems. Hopefully this will put a stop to rumours that CARLEX had ceased to exist [...]

First things first, we need to warn you all that this post is going to be a rather lengthy one, because we have quite a lot of things to cover and they include:- The stresses that miscommunication within Peverel / Solitaire, cause residents. More messages from SPM / PPMG customers that don’t know what to do Reply to Andy following our ‘allegations’ So, first up is… The Stresses of Miscommunication We all know how frustrating it can be when one member of SPM / PPMG [...]

It’s been widely reported in the national press that the government are to encourage councils to build more homes, by promising to pay the council the same amount of money, as each of the new homes pay in council tax per year for two years after completion. Fair enough, this is a way of encouraging the council to build new homes and meet targets, but as we are already too familiar with, councils ‘appear to currently be being encouraged’ by developers to allow the approval [...]

We were recently contacted by a contractor of Solitaire / Peverel who gave us information, which was enlightening to say the least. The contractor in question advised that they have been working for Peverel / Solitaire for the last five years and are on their approved contractor list. Many times they have advised Solitaire’s / Peverel’s (+ associated companies) Property Managers that they can do the same job, in the same time and of equal quality / standard for a lot cheaper than they are being [...]

A lot of questions have been asked as to where Freehold Homeowners stand in regards to how they can go about removing their property management company.  Can they go RTM? Fortunately for TTAS, ‘Anon’ has kindly replied to this question that was raised on an old post – which we thought would be of interest to everyone so we have highlighted these facts below:- Freeholders are not entitled to participate in the RTM process – and if an RTM claim succeeds, then the houses are bound [...]

TTAS has clearly established itself within the Property Management sector, as we continue to receive hits from many PMC’s and are regularly being approached by them to advertise on TTAS. One of the companies that has recently contacted us is ‘BlocNet Ltd’ who are now also listed within the TTAS Directory Page. What encouraged us to approve BlocNet’s request to be added to TTAS was because, prior to the company being established – they had also suffered the pain of unethical management companies and wanted [...]

July has quickly passed by and it was a relatively quiet month in regards to postings from us, due to holidays and technical difficulties – but we hope to get back up to speed with things in August, especially as we remembered that TTAS had it’s 2nd birthday on the 21 July and we’re looking forward to our third one! Firstly, those of you that supported the Downing Street Petition will likely have received a reply from No.10. Admittedly, it wasn’t what we were looking [...]
