Placed an order on Friday, went to check on the delivery status at lunchtime today to find that the website has been suspended. Phone Barclaycard to stop the transaction and they said no money taken, but will not stop the transaction!

Looked up details on Nic.com to find contact details, a recorded message giving out a number and saying no messages will be taken.

Now found this blog… !

Hi everyone… I know I’m very stupid to read all these after being cheated… but could somebody help as I have lost over $10,000USD to this god damn company….

I have reported them to trading standards…. I was soooo stupid that I sent the money thru wire transfer and now I have no way to get it back since the bank said they don’t authorize the recall…….

If anyone could help me out, I would be very appreciated.

Wow, was just putting my card details in and thought i should check if it was a safe site.
Thank god i found this! you lot saved me a bundle!!

although checking back i noticed a badge on the site saying “unauthorised retailer”
and the lack of their capital letters in the address clearly shows a problem.

Glad peoples issues are beginning to resolve though!

This is an update to my last update of January 3 2010. Just to let you know I finally
received a refund through my credit card company a couple of days ago. The whole thing
has taken nearly three months to resolve but I am very relieved. I hope you all receive your
refunds soon.

Update: Still no refund or camera. I would like to encourage all people who have lost money through this apparent scam to contact the government’s Consumer Direct service on 08454 040506. If a significant number of people have had problems with this company operating illegally, then UK Trading Standards will investigate and potentially prosecute to close them down.
Thanks, Rob, for providing a forum and helping prevent others from getting caught out by this.
