I have a unit in Syd, got a call from P (on exec like me). At the Jan 2010 AGM P offered to get quotes for ceiling insulation. He's on top floor, would make is unit more comfortable. Seemed good idea.
When the 3rd mob climbed up they reported the insulation had been installed! But we hadn't authorised anyone to do the work!
Seemed v v odd!
Then I learned others had been stung in this sort of fraud. Apparently installers will claim money back from the govt, obviously way in excess of the cost of doing the job............ and we don't know who did it and if it was done properly.... other 2 quotes is at least a place to start.
Household is supposed to get a letter from govt stating insulation had been installed by whom etc. But in our case the installers could just use bogus address so they can intercept paperwk.
I'm going to file complaint with Dept of Fair Trading
Anyone else had this happen? Any tips on how you followed it through?
