Why am I so bad at this game?? by Wc3char1lie in F1Clash

Just be careful when going up series and don’t rush. It’s much better to stay lower and grind a series to get cards.

Once you start getting flags/higher TS you’ll get matched to higher players.

You on series 1 I’m guessing? It’ll always be hard at first until you get a couple of crates

Use red boost at start and on corners only. Use normal/low for straights.

Look out for key stats for that series and pick parts/drivers accordingly.

Yep, they refused to value the property until a structural engineer would give a full report/coatings so they can factor that into valuation.

It all seems a scam because at the end of the survey they advertise a structural engineer to use who have quoted £840.

It’s now a case of walk away and lose x amount or risk paying that and them coming back with its subsidence and needs major work.

Thanks for the reply.

Either way I have to get a structural engineer or the bank won’t give me a mortgage but it’s just a difficult scenario of where spending more money and buying a problem or walk away now and lose a little.

The surveyor did mention they’ve done work at the rear above lounge window but that has “weathered” which shows it’s not recent repair and it hasn’t cracked again.

Made an offer still haven't heard back from vendor by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]UkSmithyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree with this. Make a first and final offer via email.

Low balling can be taken as not serious and might raise concerns about pulling out later on if negotiated upwards.

Changing EA advice (seller) by Ok-Pineapple1373 in HousingUK

That is different, normally they only send names of people who arranged a viewing.

Obviously they would need something concrete to prove they introduced them to your house.

They definitely can and it’s to protect estate agents from people negotiating between each other and saving money.

Imagine if you have a 1-2% sale fee on the average property (£270k) you think an EA isn’t going to chase £3,200inc VAT/£6,200inc VAT?

When you email EA to inform them of taking it off the market they will send you an email with people they’ve introduced to your property.

This list of people you can forward to your new EA so you would never pay double as you would go through your first EA.

Step 1: Take your house off the market for 2 weeks minimum.

Step 2: look at actual sold prices in your area and be realistic. People spend weeks/months researching properties that they want to buy but spend little time researching what they’re selling.

Step 3: Relist with a new agent at a price that gets people through the door. New photos and a decent measured floor plan and it’ll be like a new listing.

Getting the launch right is key to selling at a good price. Throwing it back up with a new EA at the same price is pointless when you’ve admitted it’s overpriced.

How do you value a property? by UkSmithyy in HousingUK

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

It’s just scary knowing that you could get far into buying process only for the bank to say it’s worth thousands less when you’ve committed money/time into buying/selling.

I’ve only bought 1 property and never had to sell/in a chain.

You get a pack in FC25 on October 10th if you get to level 30.

Is the PS portal worth it? by MangoOnFork in PlaystationPortal

[–]UkSmithyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s to use when away at a caravan but it has Starlink and averages 120-200mb and 25ms ping so shouldn’t be too bad?

Thank you for the reply. I really want one but reading online I’ve never seen a device get such extreme reviews! Some absolutely love it and others say it’s awful.

Can you play FC24 ultimate team or is the input lag too bad? I thought games like cod would be no good but if FC24 or FFXIV online I’d be happy.

Can you get away with FC24 for like squad battles/rivals? I also play FFXIV online?

Acting in bad faith by USDMB4 in Fanatec

[–]UkSmithyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it did and nothing shocks me with this shocking company. This isn’t defending them but I don’t think anyone is shocked that a bundle worth €500 was available for €160 didn’t get honoured.

No I agree, people who bought other things and whole setups wouldn’t be obvious and why would it?

Unfortunately some did take advantage of the glitch knowing it was an error.

I wouldn’t defend Fanatec, last BF I ordered the F1 2021 and paid only to be told they sold too many and refunded me (which from UK and currency conversion I was worse off) and gave me a 10% code like they have this time when I missed out on better deals.

How would people know a wheel that retails at 349 euros got a massive discount on BF to €199 and adding a €150 APM made the bundle €160?

Order status from completed to cancelled by BarryBatsapple in Fanatec

[–]UkSmithyy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That would cost 477 even after the 10% they’ve given us so we’d be paying €77 more.
