Stephen Read [AGAIN]

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.
