My wife has just informed me that my birthday present may or may not exist. She has spent £400 with a company called Easytackle.com on tackle for me.
She placed the order on November 10th, and the guy phoned back to say they could not do next day delivery but could get the tackle out very quickly. She explained that this was a birthday present and he promised her that the tackle would be delivered before 1st December.
You can probably guess what is next. The money was taken straight from our account. She used a Switch card. There is no sign of the tackle. My wife has rung their number 10 times a day every day and the phone has not been answered once. She has been emailing. No reply.
I have just done some research and apparently lots of people are in the same boat as us - they have ordered product in November/December and have seen or heard nothing. The company are now claiming on their website that their telephones are broken. They have claimed that since November 27th - as if a business would allow their phones to be down for so long! The word on other forums now is that they have gone into liquidation. The shutters are apparently up at their shop.
So we have been scammed and lots of others have. We have no way of recovering this money.
Sorry, but the f**king robbing b**tards.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY !!!!!!!
