Advice on workmanship

Hey recently had hall stairs and landing skimmed, old plaster was sound, some bulges but no major delamination.

Couple of bits I’m not happy with and wanted to get a second opinion,

Beading being jointed at around chest hight and not lining up, some torn plaster, wavy / rippled plaster in multiple areas, some of the grit / skrim tape viable under a thin layer of skim, multiple really rough spots, also cracking already all around window bead.

Feels like the job was rushed, certainly wasn’t expecting a perfectly smooth finish and trying to be reasonable.

Seen a lot worse, not brilliant but a good decorator could sort it.

I thought the point was that there should be little to no prep work though, and will a decorator reset a bead?

Yes there should be little to no prep but Topspread's right that we've seen alot worse.
You have clearly seen and noted the areas you are unhappy with so dont pay the plasterer until he has rectified those areas, simple.

No, but did you not see their work before letting them loose on your house?

You ain't going to get a rolls Royce job either way skimming over existing shite anyway. That's why I refuse to do them . Domestic jobs jobs your always skimming round scabby arcs skirts years of gloss paint ect ect . Dogshit in every way
