Is This Company A Scam???

Post by abbey »

Have any of our British members had any dealings with mydv.co.uk?

or Americans, as it is based in the US, although it does appear to be a UK company.

I ordered a psp for my nephew for xmas price £172 and it was'nt delivered as promised, i sent them 30, yes 30 e-mails in 4 hours and received no reply.

I called them on Friday and was told it had been despatched 2 days previous (weds), today i called the company again and was told i was on the waiting list and stock would'nt be in till next week!

I told them i wanted a refund, and was told it would take 5 days for it to be credited back to my visa, i'll believe it when i see it.

I've just googled them and there's an awful lot of sites out there with customers like me who think this company's a scam (i know, i know i should have checked them out first. :o

If the worst comes to the worst and you used you credit card, the credit card company should be able to help.

I've never heard of them Abbey, but there a lot of rogue business around, luckily for me I don't have a bank card or visa to pay for things online, if I cant take it with me when I pay the cash, then I dont want it.

Keep sending those emails, every hour if possible, and maybe they might get so fed up they will cough up.

Abbey, the only place I get stuff online like that is amazon.co.uk. They have alot of different vendors that are signed up with them. I have not been disappointed yet with anything that I have got from them.

I did eventually get the majority of my money back from the company,

and placed an order with Amazon, i've had a few things off amazon & havent been dissapointed as yet.

I have learned my lesson, and will now only shop on line with a reputable company.

I'm glad to hear you got most of your money back!

The only other place I ever bought anything was ebay. I was a bit timid about that, but so far no problems.
