Firstly, we’d like to say a big thank you to all the ‘newbies’ that have e-mailed us in the last few days with their stories and were pleased to know that the TheTruthAboutSolitaire, is ‘helping’ you to deal with Solitaire Property Management / Peverel. A very big thank you to ‘Jon Dyson’, who has been contributing some excellent information in regards to Right to Manage and the correct procedures / processes to follow when instigating RTM.  We take a lot of pride in seeing this [...]

Nicky Vogg has been a frequent contributor to TheTruthAboutSolitaire and in December 2009, at her request, we published the posting ‘The Story of Nicky Vogg‘. Despite this posting, not much has changed for Nicky and she’s asked us to publish Part II of her plight, which we have listed below:- Nicky Vogg’s plan was to move abroad in 2007 after selling her rented flat. After 3 years, she is still fighting to clear her flat as not the source of flooding the lift shaft, demanding [...]

We were the first to let people know about the link between the Consensus Business Group of companies and now we can officially, reveal the companies that are part of the Peverel Group. Having perused and downloaded reports on the Consensus Business Group of companies, including Peverel from the Companies House website, we’ve obtained copies of the latest set of accounts (new accounts are due to be submitted for the year ending 31 December 2009) on many of the CBG Companies. The accounts that have [...]

Christmas hasn’t quite come early for press coverage on Peverel to stop! This week the BBC Radio 5 – Donal MacIntyre Show, has broadcast a report on Peverel on the 20 December 2009, which tells a story that mirrors the complaints of many visitors to TheTruthAboutSolitaire. We’ve broken the broadcast into three parts, for ease of listening: Part 1 – Introduction Part 2 – What Services Should Be Provided & Getting Action Part 3 – Feedback, Summary & Conclusion This broadcast was very beneficial for all Leaseholder and [...]

TheTruthAboutSolitaire has read many online reports that claim Victor Tchenquiz – CEO of Consensus Business Group, has used the Peverel brand to secure funding for certain projects. This got many of the ‘Admins’ at TheTruthAboutSolitaire thinking about why we were being told that Peverel had taken over Solitaire Property Management….. then it hit us! The bigger the ‘Peverel’ brand, the more attractive it looks to any future investors or buyers! Think about it…… if Mr Tchenquiz was trying to obtain finance and was using Peverel’s [...]

As reported on Tuesday, Peverel are currently running a ‘Satisfaction Survey’ that is being undertaken by an independent market research company called ‘The Research Factor’ Our understanding is, only a ‘selected’ number of residents appear to have received these questionnaires…. possibly to ensure that their ‘research’ reports a positive response to make Peverel / Solitaire or whoever – appear better than they really are! As all the Peverel / Solitaire companies are the same thing – Consensus Business Group – we feel that everyone should have [...]

To demonstrate that TheTruthAboutSolitaire will tell both sides of any issues that we highlight, Andy from Solitaire e-mailed us yesterday in response to the complaints of the resident from ‘Burns Avenue’, who had raised concerns at the standard of landscaping being undertaken by the onsite gardener – by asking us to highlight their problem.s Andy’s response was as follows:- Dear Admin and Burns Avenue resident, Thank you for your patience whilst we investigated the situation at Burns Avenue. We are sorry for the length of time it took to [...]

Many of you requested that we published today’s broadcast by the BBC ‘Rip of Britain’ program, that focused on the Housing sector rip-offs. These ranged from mortgages, to government schemes – but also Property Management rip off’s! Although no company names were mentioned, one of the residents interviewed, is actually a contributor to TheTruthAboutSolitaire and therefore, it’s not too difficult to work out who the company in question was! If you missed the program, click the following YouTube movie of the ‘Property Management’ feature or view [...]

We’ve seen the success that CARLEX has had, in promoting the awareness of how Consensus Business Group companies have been overcharging, failing to provide a service and being accused of profiterring from residents and feel that now is the time for TheTruthAboutSolitaire to start a campaign on behalf of leaseholders and freeholders. Since TheTruthAboutSolitaire was created, it has become the centre point for all things Solitaire / Peverel related and is the voice for all residents with complaints against these companies.  Admittedly, the way that the [...]

Following a recent upgrade to TheTruthAboutSolitaire, a minor problem resulted in us being unable to post new reports, but we have been assured that this issue should not happen again – so apologises to everyone who had been disappointed by the lack of posts. “P Hill” posted on Sunday to bring to our attention, yet another broadcast by the media that focused on Peverel.  Unfortunately, the BBC only allow you to listen again via iPlayer, however we have made a recording of the broadcast for you all [...]
