pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) haha After ashes02's question about how I knew Uncle Soon.. I think I should consolidate a list... I got to know about Uncle Soon from Native02. These are the people who also signed up with Uncle Soon... lushbelle (who did her reno the same time as I did) mrspiglet fondue rune jesperbg smallboy ashes02 familyof4 ivy Tigades apples Metalsubzero (will try to update this list when I can. Click on name to go to their T-Blog) I think many others signed up with him too, just that they don't post up in Renotalk. According to my little list I have sent out his contacts 87 times and that's only about 3/4 because I only started keeping track about 2 months ago... mm Ah Soon has been reliable and very accomodating for most of us ba. haha I think.. word of mouth is the best advertisement for anyone.

Yup. Your blog and jesper's blog came up about the same time... when mine was finishing. Then Fondue and rune at the same time. Smallboy confirmed with Uncle earlier but just started his reno... whahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Metalsubzero 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2009 Just clicked on ur new link on your siggy.. Really nice of you to do up something for Uncle Soon.. I think he's really derserving of all these.. I always believe that when u do good to people, they will do good to u in return.. So I guess he's reaping all the rewards from all the previous good work he has done.. Cheers.. Anyways, I gotten my contact from Jesper, whom I think got from u bah.. I think Uncle Soon really has to thank Native02, you and all the rest whom are supporting him and bringing him more business thru word of mouth.. Happy for him.. Really very very nice guy..

I think Uncle Soon really deserves a good word. Really he cannot do this for very long anyway so he might as well earn as much as he can now and relax soon. Jesper got his from Native02 I think. hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2009 Ah?? To relocate the meters ah? HDB bully uncle issit? Just becos he doesnt understand english...? Ya.. Uncle say the first time he went, they didn't say properly.. so He took back the floorplan.. after that he sent his brother there with the revisions.. they insisted it had some items missing still. In the first place... all these meter thing is standard procedure.. and it'll be the people moving the items themselves not my contractor.. so I don't see why it would be wrong.. why should they make things so difficult. Poor Uncle Soon. sigh I felt so pai seh when he told me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angel81 1 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 Haha, I asked Native02 for Ah Soon's contact before I started my renos too. But was told that he's very very busy during CNY that time, and won't have time for my reno. That's why I didn't engage him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But was told that he's very very busy during CNY that time, and won't have time for my reno. That's why I didn't engage him. i suppose so too. I read on Native02's blog that he was told by Ah soon not to recommend anymore customers to him at that time. Ah soon told us he had 10houses to handover to be in time for CNY!
