This is David Northcote here, I would like to
share our experience of Stephen Read installs. A warning against paying this man money up front
for goods he did not deliver or work not carried out.
After we received a
written quotation we adhered to his terms of full payment to cover purpose made materials as a
deposit with a balance of labour upon completion, He also stated pay extra 300
euro today to GUARANTEE your fitting date slot for 30th July - FOOLS
I KNOW BUT HE COMES ACROSS AS A NICE TRUSTWORTHY CHAP! Even introduced his
partner Caitlin and his son on a deposit collection.
As pensioners we come to Spain for a better life but he has caused us so
much grief over the past 4 months making my disabled wife very ill as she
suffers anxiety and heart problems.
We did post on NAME & SHAME on August 16th [copy
enclosed] but Stephen Read said take the post down before I can deal with you,
we did however todays post IS A WARNING TO OTHERS.
Following 4 failed supply & fit dates for stairs, doors & gate I
confronted him at his home address in San Miguel - WOW he was shocked
considering an hour before he messaged he was in London! He asked who gave you
my address!
From our experience in communications with him he is cocky and arrogant,
he is certainly used to customers complaining! He recites the laws in Spain
with his fancy words, and mountains of excuses and monstrous Lies [and more
Lies] and worthless threats of involving police “if you visit again”
We sincerely wish we had read of his scamming and his money grabbing
tactics as reported on Guardamar del Sagura forum, Talk Quesada, Costa Blanca
Forum, & Name and Shame BEFORE we ever got involved.
Post to be read NAMED
and SHAMED costa Blanca Spain.
