or interim payments as even more experienced business men call them.Well obviously the guy has never heard of stage payments or valuations as we more experienced business men call them. I would never install 40 sub-mains without some payment during and the rest straight after, well 30 days max, thats just plain crazy doing a job complete then waiting to get paid.
Nah Valuations in the real business world where real money changes hands :biggrin:or interim payments as even more experienced business men call them.
I may have this upside down,but does this mean they have made all other payments,before imposing this additional work? Embarrassing or otherwise,my friend,you must give us the full story...:icon12:Hey guys, I have a major problem. I have just run in 40 submains and re powered the communal's in a pre-existing block of flats. The company I'm doing the work for will not pay me until the communal TV system is up and running. That's got nothing to with me. Sadly, they thinks it does. They are claiming that I agreed to fit and install the TV at the same time as the duct work for each flat. They asked me to quote for it. I didn't. They presumed it was in the quote, though written in invisible ink, cause it certainly wasn't.
They owe me thousands. And, I do mean the wrong side of 7k
I have to fit an MATV system. The one block of 40 units is divided into 2 blocks of 20 units, in Southampton. There is two Lucy boards with two landlords supplies available.
Recommended type of Aerial? Boosters?
This is my plan - install two MATV systems for each 20 units. I know that I need to bring the signals to all the units (using satellite cable for this - not shotgun, only digital TV required). My plan is to install two high quality Digital TV Aerials on the roof. Run two cables from it to two 12 way Boosters. This would apply for both sides of the 20 units. All of the cables going to the units as well a from the aerial will be earthed due to the potential earth leakage from each unit. I also need to buy a reasonably priced TV signal meter.
I have to be honest here guys. This is my Christmas money for the family at stake here. My wife does not know. This company is becoming very difficult. I will be paid the final instalment. There's been no money problems before
Any advice is gladly received, I can't afford to have two Christmases in a row with my kids masking their dejection
Please, No screaming preachers about legal action, or get a professional in, I have tried, once they hear the above they are walking away, and won't even advise me
It should be noted that the client has agreed that I locate the new TV outlet in each unit adjacent to the new power supply, this is for the new owners to take it from there.

Serves you right for trusting them.

Why have you got to fit the system?

You want sympathy?
