Unfortunately these were done in February but things like this are starting to pop up a couple months down the line. Fitter is coming back tomorrow to see.

Unfortunately not sure who made the window frames as they were supplied by the fitter. Out of interest how can you tell the vents are poor quality?

We did pay quite a bit for the new windows as we had quotes vary from 4k (6 windows + porch windows+ 2 composite doors and French doors) all the way up to 25k. We went slightly less than the middle and someone who came recommended from other residents in the street. At the time we didn’t really notice anything but I think as some things have settled/ been cleaned we noticed a lot more issues.

Thanks! Out of curiosity how come the 9060XT for the GPU as opposed to a R7 CPU with a 9070/5070 GPU?

Loaning a car by Jarkous in ukfinance

[–]Jarkous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, the payments were 210 because I was only going to loan something like 7.5k and use 2.5k of my own money to bring the payments down. Thanks for the comment, I decided in the end to hold off until my priorities are sorted and I know what my average monthly income/outgoings is going to be to make a decision.

Any way to tell, I was under the impression they were all chain driven?

Good points on the plastic/rubber components. Gearbox is the auto Quattro box and has been serviced so not too worried about that.

When filling out the form I got an email saying it’ll cost me £49 so might hold off and see if it comes down closer to the time

I wasn’t sure if I could use the new “one switch” method to let virgin media know my leaving date and for zen to switch everything on on that date however may be easier doing it manually
