This thread discusses the Content article: Persimmon Homes Shifting House
I think you would have a good case for compensation, but you will need to push for this. The saleability and hence the value of your property are affected by this, as you have to declare the history to potential buyers. There is also the stress and worry as well as the time that you have spent dealing with this issue. You should instruct a good solicitor to help you with this - some snagging.org members have managed to get their mortgages paid off but have now signed gagging orders.
There are a number of television researchers looking for stories at the moment - you could leverage this to your advantage.
The cost to Persimmon Homes of this being on national TV could be in the millions.
Good luck and keep us posted.
