BANNED FROM EBAY

[neil hpParticipant @neilhp]

Yes…………..last night I was banned from buying and selling on ebay.co.uk

15 months ago I was sent a voucher “because I was a loyal and valued customer” for 20% off my next purchase.

So with 4 hours 10 minutes  to go before the expiry time of that voucher I bought  a model lifeboat, including post cost me £450.00p.

I submitted the voucher and Ebay  rejected it without ant explanation…..Now to me that is a breach of contract.

17 emails and 4 telephone calls to their Customer service (that’s a laugh) department later and I still hadn’t got anywhere with a refund of about 90  quid on my voucher.Each and every time I emailed I asked for their European mailing address to send a letter of complaint…and each and every time it was overlooked and not given to me.

So when my bill came the other day for £3.50 payable I refused to pay it….and finally after a few more emails to them and sod all response  I got an email last night saying my account had been suspended, but all importantly finally was a mailing address, to where I could send my cheque…….so I have sent one..post dated to 23/03/2011….exactly the time that they have kept me waiting so far for my refund.

If anyone else is having problems with ebay…they can be mailed on:

eBay Europe S.à r.l.
c/- Citibank UK Lockbox
P.O. Box 62449
33 Canada Square
London E14 1HH
United Kingdom

Arhh that feels good.

Royal Mail Sorting Office   !!

[Dave MilbournParticipant @davemilbourn48782]

Two faxes to Switzerland plus eighteen months and I’m still waiting for this bunch of clowns to send me the ‘Vero’ tool they promised me. This is so that I can “detect” the ratbag who’s selling copies of plans for my 24″ Fairey Swordsman. I don’t need the flaming tool – I already know who and where he is, and he’s still posting! Will they do anything to stop him? Will they heck as like.

So I have a PDF of the plans for free to anyone who wants a set………….by kind permission of Mr Freshney Sir. All I need is your E-Mail address. That will reduce both their commission and his profit to zero – which is what I think of this shabby Internet car-boot sale. Merry Christmas, E-Bay.

Yuletide joy to the rest of you!  Now I suppose I’d better get back to my soldering station…

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Dave…….Sorry to read about the plans Ratbag!…..but you seem to have sorted it now!

 

Can I go slightly off topic and ask you for the width of the motor, for the MMB 900, as I wish to fix the rudder positions on Slo Mo

 

Thank you….M8

 

Merry Christmas…………….Bob

Sorry to be a pain, but those drawings are dimensioned in metric units, not Imperial (to humour our continental friends, don’t you know).  As we’ve now hijacked Neil’s thread we ought to continue this in private, methinks.

DM

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Thanks Dave…………OK……………..Sorry Neil…..back to you

 

Just had a PM saying that Modelmayhem have banned all links to E-Bay?

 

So we`re now back in topic

 

Bob

[Tony HadleyParticipant @tonyhadley]

Bob,

 

Should that be Modelboatmayhem?

 

Tony

[60wattParticipant @60watt]

There is actually a section on boat related Ebay auctions so that can’t be right.

 

Yesterday’s thread linking to the supply of cheap 900 motors on Ebay was deleted.

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Tony…..I may have misunderstood the PM sender

 

So, please ignore my posting…….sorry, chaps

Just to grouse a bit more on big organisations Argos are a mean bunch of so and so’s just coz i did not enter the right catologue number there young assistant could not see the wood for the trees and charged me an extra £40 for the extra bits that shouldof been free . I could of bought my self a resonable 2nd hand boat for what they charged for the nintendo wii but a fathers promise is priceless and i will not/cannot go back on my word to my daughter. But still a mery christmas was had by one and all and a happy new year to all out there .

Best wishes

Andy from cardiff
