Finally.
I’m delighted that a very much shortened signed letter, emailed to Taylor Wimpey was enough for our cheque to arrive super fast through the post Yesterday. I am honestly pleasantly surprised and grateful they didn’t try to twist any further.
Anyway, in the interest of balance, the letter we signed simply stated the EXACT settlement figure is, and shall remain confidential, and we accept a cheque of that value as full and final settlement of fuel bills up to and including 31st March 2010. Nothing else. No conclusion of “all matters” or agreeing to “all terms”, no ambiguity.
And it did the trick.
Brilliant.
Now, if only Wimpey and Wood Newton between them could finish fixing the house, we’d be happy campers at last, perhaps before our two-and-a-half year anniversary here at Oxley Park?!
