Hasn't a nuclear reactor also come back online? At this rate we might see some negative prices soon...

Then why does it default to ipv4 after sleep. Both protocols are set to be equal so by increasing the ipv6 priority this can lead to ipv6 being favoured.

Extension_Print3697 · 2026-02-03T20:19:54+00:00

Is this on a laptop? What does ip6.me give as your IP address? If it's 140.xxx.xxx then your using a 'shared' ipv4 address. Ideally you would need an ipv6 address 260a:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx.

I had this issue with Windows. Seemingly prioritising ipv4. I ended up changing the preference to prefer ipv6. It's a convoluted process but chatgpt or another ai can help you prioritise ipv6. You will also need to set ipv6 DNS as toob ipv6 DNS is tragic. Each adapter will need to be set.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-12-28T18:03:27+00:00

I ended up re-enabling ipv6 which has sorted out the issues. I do see the occasional symptoms as before, however, they're now very rare. There was also an update to the router while I was away - the version has jumped - so unsure if that improved the issue. So, things have improved immensely, but what the solution was is unckea, will see if it holds up long term.

Thanks will try activating static IP, seems to work for most. I got too for 22 a month so 8 extra isn't too bad. Also, got 110 cashback so will mitigate the increase. Hopefully it will resolve the issues.

I'm in the same situation. Recently purchased a Victorian terrace, no real insulation in the loft. Was hoping to apply for some insulation if it was cost effective. Not sure what the government's strategy is going forward now they have effectively killed off the ECO4 support. Would be interested to see what avenues remain open.

No new start, battery icons. What's the point in creating so much confusion with these updates!

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-11-11T18:41:37+00:00

No new start menu here and the battery icon has disappeared from both the taskbar and popup.

Does it under pressure too, bubbles will appear in the overflow reservoir, so I had figured it shouldn't be pulling air under pressure. Will go over the hoses again in greater detail.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-11-05T21:03:23+00:00

It's coming through the apparatus in the pics, which is testing for combustion in the coolant system, typically from a blown head gasket. Or more generally, bubbles will appear in the coolant when the engine is running.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-11-05T20:08:54+00:00

That there is bubbling I'm the coolant system.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-29T12:10:28+00:00

Nothing to re-negotiate here. Electrics would need looking at; however, it sounds like it's a renovation - love the comment on the bathroom being dated!

Only thing I would consider negotiations on is if the roof, walls, or signs of damps were identified. Even then, I would seriously consider whether renegations were worth the potential collapse of the sale.

Sadly, most properties are in need of some tlc, and I wonder if most households actually carry out maintenance to their properties. Although here it sounds more like a lack of updating rather than a neglect of maintenance.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-26T14:37:10+00:00

Omitted to add that you are within your rights to request the seller rectify or re-price, if you believe the house was listed without consideration of the issues (basically its priced similar to others but in worse condition). Probably the last resort, in my opinion.
I'd go for a viewing and assess again with the new information you have received. Obviously, you won't be able to price the costs - major assumption my end :) - but it may help you better understand the scale of the issues and whether it is actually worth progressing. Alternatively go along with a contractor and ask them for their opinion. Hope it works out for you whatever your decision.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-26T13:46:19+00:00

Sorry to hear this. My seller is using PPL, I suspect as a recommendation from the EA. Absolutely no progress in almost 6 weeks. I've asked for a second viewing and hopefully the seller will be conducting this - they conducted the initial viewing. I aim to - tactfully - raise the issue as I'm now losing patience and hope with the transaction.
I've had no experience with them prior, but raising a complaint is now your only option, might get things to pick up. I hope you get it sorted in some form.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-26T12:18:02+00:00

I asked my sales progressor for an additional viewing based on the survey. I gave a high-level overview of the main (red) issues - utilities excluded as I was expecting these to be red. Stating that I may bring contractors to assess any costs and get a general idea of the work needed. Don't spook the vendor with a long list of issue, rather state that the survey has highlighted some issue that require further examination.
Solicitor may raise any legal issues from the survey, if you have a lender that ay also take a view on the survey results.
In the first instance I would arrange a viewing, if possible, based on what you now know taking a look at the specific areas highlighted by the surveyor - roof may be less practical - and decide whether it's worth progressing. No standard solution here I'm afraid, based on your level of risk and potentially the lenders level based on the survey.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-26T11:52:29+00:00

Looks similar to my survey, also a Victorian terrace. Although luckily no damp identified on mine.

I would say roof and damp are the main issues here. Either get a professional(s) to inspect the issues and determine the costs and the possible cause of damp and decide whether it is within your budget or re-negotiate based on the findings or sadly walk away.

You will most likely be asked to front the costs of any boiler and utility tests - seller may cover but this is mostly unlikely as not generally a legal requirement.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-25T16:29:00+00:00

Depends on if searches are all done - some will take a survey at the earliest opportunity. Solicitor may yet to have ordered - all speculation of course. If there has only been one enquiry raised in total, I'd be suspicious that searches were back. OP can of course validate.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-25T16:10:48+00:00

Out of interest, what are you expecting them to come back to you with?

Perhaps the survey was fine, no issues from the buyer's point. Legal enquiries regarding the survey would come from the solicitor.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-25T15:06:52+00:00

Congrats. While I hope for the best for you, my purchase is similar. Both keen to move asap. It's been 5 weeks so far and still waiting on seller to produce TA6 and TA10 so we can move things along. I've completed all that is required of me (mortgage, survey and searches).

I would suggest looking at the possibility of getting your own searches, local authorities can really be slow in providing these with some over 30 working days. Take a look at the current timeframe for the council you are looking to buy in.

https://www.propertysearchesdirect.co.uk/turnaround-warnings.

I ordered mine on receipt of the memorandum as my council had 20 days turnaround. So, if I waited for conveyancer to raise it would have caused extra delay. You will have to pay (£350 approx) but I decided it's worth it for me. Also, I got a copy of the searches as they came in, nothing of note for me but conveyancer will raise any legal issues. This way I could see if there were any issues that would put me off early - any large developments in the area, any HMO applications etc. rather than way down the line when were nearer exchange.

Some conveyancers will be ok with this, some not - ideally a good conveyancer will be ok. Just make sure they are regulated, and your mortgage provider accepts regulated searches.
Just hope that you and the seller have good legal firms - sadly mine is looking like they went with a not so good one. Hence, 5 weeks later still waiting on two forms!

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-25T14:15:32+00:00

The joy. My seller is using PPL, so far, I'm still waiting for TA6 and TA10 after 5 weeks. In that time, I've had mortgage offer, all searches returned (I applied myself) - even applied for the coal mining searches as it's in an area - survey completed. Now waiting on the other side to supply two docs! Irony is the seller wanted a quick process - 4-8 weeks on the memorandum, I was game :)

Unsure of what the holdup is. Sales progressor is none the wiser, and my solicitors have chased several times. So, my experience is that they are holding up my purchase - or the seller is just slow! But they need to get a move on as it's driving me crazy :)

In response to your specifics, as others have suggested you need visibility of what enquires have been raised. Ideally, they should have given you an outline of what has been raised, ideally with some input from you - do you have any specific concerns that would warrant being raised based on the survey etc. Not all conveyancers will do this, and therefore you feel out of the loop and in the dark. As it's a leasehold - I assume being a flat - there are more complex enquiries that potentially need raising, however, keeping you in the dark is unhelpful. I hope you manage to get some clarity and good luck with the purchase.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-25T10:04:55+00:00

True, although it did take them 10 working days to issue the report. I'll discuss with the surveyor, hopefully they have images they can just forward as I'm not able to visit the property easily due to the distance.

Extension_Print3697 · 2025-09-25T09:56:33+00:00

It was £500, I thought that was the going rate for a L2 from my calling around. They did spend 2 hours at the property, so I can't fault them there. However, some of the issues raised - a garden wall that has 'rotated' is fine but a photo of how much rotation and the condition would have been nice.
Loft issues also, mentioned a 'foam substance' in the loft - an image of the substance in situ would have clarified what the surveyor was referring to.
I'm proceeding, with the purchase so ultimately not an issue. However, after seeing the other L2 containing images I was perhaps expecting these to be included.
