fab!
"We just wanted to say how fab this company is they were a huge help with our wedding day at Oakley Hall in June 2011. The chair covers and sashes in the ceremony room and marquee looked fantastic and the colours were just as we had imagined. The fairy light canopy and the balloon arrangements in the marquee were lovely, and more than a month on we still have some of the 'Just Married' balloons on display at home!
There attention to detail was second to none and followed our instructions so carefully so that the chair cover sashes were tied exactly as we wanted. ~There prices were so competitive, without any compromise on quality or service - we were very impressed and wouldn't hesitate to recommend there services to others."

In answer to the review written!
"It is a shame that we have received this negative feedback as out of the 100's of weddings every year that we undertake. I can honestly say this is the first complaint we have received of this kind to date.
The client had original chosen Teal Sashes and balloon decor to match, however the client claims they verbally changed the colour of the sashes from teal to turquoise. Be this our fault or the clients is not known as paperwork is destroyed 1-2 weeks after the event as we feel this would allow sufficient time if any issue were to arise. However we have only received a message 5 weeks after the event from the client a month down the line to advice of an issue after she viewed her pics on tour facebook fan site with a friend.
We display pictures of all the weddings we undertake on our facebook fan page to give clients ideas and to show a venue off. In the pictures there happened to be a birdcage (which we do not do or advertise that we do) which we commented "beautiful idea for a centrepiece" and in no way reflected this as part of our work. We have happily removed this picture as requested. As for the arch there is no way in guaranteeing that balloons will not pop throughout the day and assure that we only use the highest quality decorating balloons available, it is just very unfortunate that the client has experienced these problems.
We listened to the client’s complaint and answered her concerns in a professional and polite manner and explained that as a month had passed there was nothing we could do, as all seemed well when we left the venue with no complaints from the groom who was on site or the venue when we collected.
As the client requested financial compensation which we declined they have chosen to add as many reviews as possible onto different sites. You only have to read our testimonals on both our sites to see our happy customers.

AVOID at ALL costs!
"DON'T USE!!! Put the wrong colour sashes on the chairs at my wedding and won't accept responsibility because we've been on our honeymoon so didn't call them about it! Basically if you don't stop your ceremony and phone them about it there and then there's nothing they can do! Balloon arch popped before speeches had even finished and then they used a photo of our centre pieces which they had NOTHING to do with and tried passing it off as something they'd done on their Facebook site. The owner was extremely rude on the phone when I made my complaint. Apparently it's 'hard to believe' I've been on honeymoon for a month! And I should have got someone to phone him for me (er I got married= I'm an adult and can make my own complaints)!!! AVOID!!!!"

Great Service
"I have bought several carpets from this company and recently I got them to install wood floors downstairs.
They were excellent. The fitters were really friendly and helpful, but they did drink a lot of tea, which I didn't mind at all.
They were really helpful from the showroom through to the fittng."

"We've been using Fresch for our Business Lunches and Buffet Catering for a while now and find them fantastic. The food is genuinely delicious and they have always been on time and friendly. We've tried several caterers in Basingstoke all of which have been OK but nothing like Fresch. Definitely worth a try! "

Best value lunch in Basingstoke?
"I've eaten at the Lime Leaf several times now, the food is always excellent as is the value. If you're in Basingstoke at lunchtime, you can get a quick lunch for about the same cost as going to Burger King. It must be the best kept secret in Basingstoke."

Recommendation
"I have been using the services of Barry and Pam’s drainage teams for over 10 years. They have been able to offer me a full 24-7 service and this has enabled me to provide a full and complete service to my clients.
One of the reasons I have continued using their services and not moved to other cheaper contractor! is their ability to be flexible in a crisis and assist us when it’s needed most.
They are always happy to assist and help resolve issues on our sites as well as being proactive in coming up with solutions to resolve problems, no matter how small or large.
I have always found their services be reliable and on time and they have always communicated the correct and precise information that is required to meet mine and my clients needs.
We are currently working together on various projects and I look forward to building on our existing relationship with their continued support and services."

"We have been working together now for nearly four years.
We have placed many calls with you and you have reacted without any hesitation and have always met the response times we have set you. When we call you, it's dealt with and we can get on with our own operation and think no more about it. We very much appreciate what you do for us and I would like to personally thank you for everything that you have done for us over the years. You always respond no matter what time of day, evenings and weekends included, and your operatives are always professional, clean and tidy about their work and have a very good success rate.

"My 11 year old daughter Jody, has been attending lessons with John for 9 months now. I accompany Jody to her lessons and can see the week on week improvement on Jody's guitar playing. But almost more importantly I can see the inspiration John is providing for Jody, therefore nurturing and maintaining her enthusiasm for playing the guitar."

LessonTrax
"I've been going to John for lessons for the best part of 15 months. I came to him as a fairly experienced bass player who had wound up on guitar quite by accident in my last band. A lot of the time I felt like a bass player masquerading as a guitarist. Simply put John has got me to a stage now where I feel like a guitarist. I was able to say what areas I needed to improve and where I wanted to be - I'm well on my way now. Lessontrax are competitively priced (& he is cheaper than most) but after a short while with another guitar teacher I'm sticking with John and would always recommend him to other guitarists. I can't put my finger on why or how but he has been able to unlock a lot of what I couldn't on my own."

Night Night Pests
"I was just posting some adverts on this site and came across Night Night Pests. It came as no surprise to me that Graham was advertising on here as he is a smart man who knows how to run a business correctly. If you were ever looking for a more honest, decent, hard working guy for pest control then I can\'t recommend this chap high enough. Much much better than getting the local council around. I used to sell this man advertising (along with 6 or 7 other pest control firms in the area) a few years ago in a local directory and in 4 years selling advertising I don\'t I have ever come across a more genuine bloke in my life. I\'d have no hesitation in recommending Graham and his services to anyone and if I lived in the Basingstoke area and required pest control then I would use Night Night Pests 10 times out of 10. Graham I hope you and your family are well.
Best regards

DISCO
"Beat-n-bop provided the disco for our daughter’s 13th birthday party in June this year. They were recommended to us by friends and we were not disappointed.
We got everything we were hoping for - great music, fantastic lighting and little extras such as glow bracelets for all the kids at no extra charge.
I liked the fact that the DJs were friendly, approachable, and interested in matching what they could offer to your own particular needs and wishes. It was easy to negotiate beforehand about music preferences etc and on the night they made every effort to make it the best birthday experience possible for our daughter.
Beat-n-Bop are thoroughly organised and professional in the way they run their business. They responded quickly to any queries we had. From beginning to end everything ran smoothly and efficiently, which made everything less stressful for us. I would highly recommend them to anyone else. "

"“Financial planning for the future involves a need for confidence in the specialist knowledge required to navigate through the complex and constantly changing minefield of financial investment. We have found Karl to be both clear and conscientious in his dealings. As we have followed him along his career to date, we feel comfortable in leaving him in total control of our life savings, etc., in fact we feel incredibly lucky to have discovered him when we did.” Pam and Tony Bateman"

First Class
""Since we first transferred our financial planning to Karl we have noted the level of care and attention that he has given to our account has been first class. His advice has always been sound and his in-depth knowledge of the markets has meant that we have been able to leave him to run our financial matters for us for the last two years, relying only on his regular updates to keep us in the picture. We have no hesitation in recommending others to use Karl’s organisation for their investments and financial planning, as we will be looking to Karl to handle our transactions for many years to come.” Keith and Lorraine Taylor"
