We have not had an invoice settled for 285 days and counting for piles driven on one of platinum homes (mass construction Nz Ltd) sites. Do not do any work for this company. You will not be paid.

Latest news is that Jason Strange has left the country. The weak coward that he is, lying and ripping people off for years. Platinum NZ just as much to blame as all the signs have been there for years and they did nothing. Shaun Riley CEO has left as well, says enough. Only after one thing and that is filling their own pockets. New CEO in place, he will have a difficult job to repair the damage that has been done for years by these incompetent rats.

I spoke to platinum homes head office yesterday and they advised me they were looking into the situation with Jason strange . A decision would be made in Wednesday to either close up or continue the buildings . Jason has gone to ground . He owed us money from dec 2018 . The hole must be pretty deep .
