vowsh 1 Report post Posted January 15, 2008 I think shoud not be a problem to state the problem here rather than pm to individual right?Confirmed & Engaged Ho Bee in early Dec after gotten the quote from Patrick. He claimed can start any time but deliver after CNY. I am fine with that. ( Did not pay or sign any contract with them) Since then that was the 1st and last time i talked to him. Called him a number of times to ask for a date as I have work/wedding plan. His call always diverts to Mrs Quek who dun know the status at all. She said will get back to me but no news. I told her i need a date as i cannot plan my personal stuff. Radio silence till i give up last weekend. No energy to keep chasing liao.Simply dun understand why is it so diffcult to return my call, at least let me know his plan. I understand he is bz and i can try to accomodate him. I wasted >1 mth waiting & waiting. Nothing was done, not even selection of tiles or capentry discussion.Really really have diffculty to contact him for discussion. I believe all have this problem trying to find him.Last week, informed Ho Bee that I had decided not to engage them for reno, telling them my problems. Sad to say that they did not even apologize. Maybe i am the unlucky one. Anyway, move on to find any ID/contractor lor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Put it another way. If there's a problem after handover say 1 mth , do you think you can find him?I doubt you can find him. Indeed his business is good but customer focus not there. I rather get someone that response to your needs and followup promptly. Btw, he dun provide 3-D drawing & schedule coz he is a contractor. U must have in mind what you want to do if u want to engage him. My time & energy are exhausted...u can give a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xiao_xiin 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2008 when i contacted him in nov last yr, i waited 2 weeks for my quotation but none came. finally i call up again and mrs quek says he's very busy and and can deliver only after cny. so i got myself another contractor who send me my quotation within 1 week and following revised quotations within days. no contactor is perfect tho.
