Daily Mail Coverage 27/10/10

Increasing awareness of Leaseholders plight is essential in trying to force regulation of the PMC industry and when we were approached by the Daily Mail three weeks ago to tell our side of the story, we were more than happy to help. It’s been a hard secret to keep from visitors but we trust that today’s report in the ‘Money Mail’ section of the Daily Mail goes some way to promoting awareness. If you haven’t read the report, we’ve copied it for those of you that may [...]

Increase in Residential Associations being Setup.

In the last few weeks, we have been receiving hundreds of e-mails each week from residents who have been asking us for advice on how to deal with Solitaire Property Management / Peverel, Consort and any of the other Consensus Business Group property management companies. It would appear the publicity generated by the City Height’s LVT has encouraged a number of estates to start establishing Residential Associations and gaining the support of fellow residents to turn the tide on Peverel / Solitaire. From the contributors [...]



BBC Nottingham’s Coverage of City Height’s LVT

TheTruthAboutSolitaire has been able to make a recording of the BBC East Midlands Today program, that was aired on the 15 February 2010, that publicised the recent LVT Victory for City Heights Residents. The LVT verdict has resulted in Solitaire / Peverel Property Management, being ordered to reimburse the residents of City Heights in excess of £187,000. Below is the YouTube footage for those that were unable to view the program. This victory we hope will act as an inspiration to all unhappy residents of [...]

So to get round that Residents were filmed walking around the communal areas! As we have 999 year [...]



CALAFEX – Campaign Against Leasehold and Freehold Exploitation

The Power of TheTruthAboutSolitaire

TheTruthAboutSolitaire does help residents with getting their complaints heard from Solitaire / Peverel. In the last few weeks, we have been informed by a few contributors that having had their cases highlighted by TheTruthAboutSolitaire, they were suddenly contacted by Solitaire and some are finally getting their problems addressed. One contributor sent us the following:- Thank you for the wonderful job that you are doing. The measure of your success is that I have had a letter from my property manager (who?????) offering to meet me  [...]



We Want Our Money Back!

On the 18 October 2008, we highlighted the plight of TruthAboutSolitaire contributor ‘A N Onymous’, with the posting titled ‘One Year of PeverHell‘ ‘A N Onymous’ provided photograph’s with a time and date stamp on them, as evidence that Solitaire / Peverel were not maintaining their estate.  ‘Andy’, Solitaire’s Online Feedback manager, responded to ‘A N Onymous’ story by quoting that they would contact, the contractor to remove the damage hinges, etc.  and here’s an extract of ‘Andys’ original comment:- The bin store shown in one of [...]



The Story of Nicky Vogg

The Story of Nicky Vogg

Nicky Vogg has been a regular contributor to TheTruthAboutSolitaire, fighting to get her voice heard by Solitaire / Peverel, whom have ignored her for many years. Many will have read the messages that she has written, calling for Solitaire / Peverel to do something about her issues. It would appear that Nicky’s requests have fallen on deaf ears and Lee Middleburghs (MD of Solitaire / Peverel) has advised that she should go to an LVT. We’ve decided to highlight her cause and demonstrate that, Nicky [...]
