RESPONSE: Be careful of people likek Hj that try to help buy telling you about class action deadlines. The deadlines change and are very complicated in some cases. Moreover, there is always something new. You might want to try the Spencer class action . . . if you qualify . . . the number is 800) 490-6997. As for the Cox settlement, it is true you are out of the class action timelines. But Hj failed to note that there are at least 3 timelines within Cox for different types of systems. Like I said, it gets complicated.The bottom line is poly is bad. And one manufacturer has now admitted in court that their product is defective from the moment of installation.Visit poly info central at http://www.polybutylene.com: My house was built in 1981. I have owned it since 1991. I called a plumber yesterday when I discovered water leaking. He said I had polybutylene pipes and they should have been replaced years ago. I never heard of this before. I called a recovery number and was told that I should have filed a claim before 1997. How could I do this when I never heard anything about it. Have you heard of people in my situation and do you have any advice?
