  • Laptop Battery

7/29/21

BEWARE THIS SCAM COMPANY. They have UK in their website name but are really scammers based in mainland China. They sell counterfeit laptop batteries that DO NOT WORK. I bought an Apple Mac battery from them. It arrived shipped from a warehouse on the UK south coast. Faulty battery did not work. It would not charge and remained flat. Kept removing battery, resetting laptop, replacing battery. Left for many hours on charge. It showed fully charged but steadfastly remained completely flat. Emailed them with problem details and asked for a replacement. They just sent pathetic emails saying "try remove, reset laptop, then recharge. Do this many times." Luckily I had paid with PayPal so after many weeks of being fobbed off, I raised a dispute with PayPal. The dodgy company insisted I return the faulty battery to an address in Guangdong China before offering any refund through PayPal. I return it by Royal Mail carrier but they rejected the package as dangerous goods and destroyed it. Luckily PayPal are arranging to pay me a full refund. But I'm still out of pocket on shipping charges. IT IS A SCAM: Dodgy Chinese companies masquerading as good British or European companies. They import sea containers full of counterfeit goods from China that will never work, are dangerous and sell them on to unsuspecting customers. Maybe 50% of people never bother trying to get a refund, so the dodgy company keeps all of their money. 50% of the rest of us get tons of hassle and maybe our money back eventually after months have passed, minus all our return-shipping charges. So why are these scammers doing it?

They make plenty of cash by investing customer's money at high interest rates for many months and get to keep much of it to add to their profits. Eventually they get forced to return maybe 50% of the original money. They fob everyone off with excuses in-the-meantime to maximise their interest gains. Asking you to send the item back to China also earns them more time delays and extra interest as well. They have now made plenty of interest and kept all unclaimed money on interest as well. Nice little earner scam for them this one. Report them to UK Trading Standards online and get them closed down / moved on or have all their dodgy counterfeit goods seized from their warehouses in the UK. Some people report their laptops getting hot and bursting into flames so get them closed down now before they do more damage!

This dreadful dating web site is getting worse. Lots of man-hating, heavily-tattooed, obese, roly-poly chavs. Many grown so unfit they won't post real profile photos. Lots with pet dogs to massage low IQ neurotic egos. Some keep asking (sic) where have all the good people gone or declare they're waiting for Prince Charming / Mr Right. They've still not got it. Lots of un-dateables with immaturity, ignorance and limited education. Few gym members amongst those who've done nothing to look after or improve themselves. Many bigotted views posted in aggressive, poorly-written profiles. BS dysfunctional narratives that ask users not to keep pestering them for hot dates or ONS. Men haven't grown so desperate they want to date them. "Nobody wants to talk on here". Little wonder why.

Tried this dating site. Absolute waste of time. So pleased I didn't part with any money. Wrote some nice profiles - waste of time. No-one ever replies, no messages or anything. Constantly bombarded with adverts to take out a subscription - very expensive so avoided. As site came online, faded mosaic of old members photos, reminiscent of well-known scamming dating web site. Looks like clone running in background with new front end, very suspicious. None will ever contact you as all these profiles are empty fakes. Got many views yet no messages. Spotted pattern - only got viewed when I was offline. All views received were false - generated automatically by algorithms in system software behind the web site. Paused my profile for a while - inactive so no-one could see it. Wow, I got so many views and emails saying I need to login asap as XXX or YYY wants to contact me. Really? How was that possible when my profile was not active and thus hidden from view? BS. Ran advanced searches using lots of different criteria. Very revealing. For a site that claims to have 40 million singles, searches produced only handful of profiles or in some cases absolutely none at all. 'There is no-one online at the moment' was often the system message. This is a statistical impossibility for an international web site. A few token bimbo pictures exist. Careful these are only there to prise a subscription out of your pocket. They're not even real. Ran an automated search several times in quick succession. It ran out of matches to show me, which is odd for site that claims to have 40 million singles. Last profile photo repeatedly got displayed as if it was a completely new user each time. It had an age that kept changing to new values - an identical user photo aged 25, or 26, or 27, or 28, or 29, or 30 and so on. The system was likely automatically generating fake profiles to artificially match to (false) computer-generated data. The algorithm does this presumably to make it look as if there are plenty of different people online, when in fact this is not the case. Sure, there will be a few real people on the site. But goodness when 95% of all profiles have no text but only a single photo, it's easy to wonder if any of these are at all really genuine. Of the remaining 5% possible real people, many had profiles contained such negative views from members with bad entitlement attitudes, that no-one in their right mind would ever wish to meet them anyway. Financials for the owner company's marketing and overall revenue figures is 50M+ Euros! Not bad from a business to maximise profit return on investments. My advice: These are scammers of the first order. Dating site? More like One.BIg.Con Please Avoid - Avoid - Avoid.

A dreadful web site, mostly full of scammers and narcissistic people. Low IQ users who can't bother to write a profile, but still find time to post boring, duff photos. Don't expect riveting conversation as few bother replying to messages. The site pampers scammers as they're desperate for content. They don't respond to complaints or remove dodgy comments from creepy users. Lots of prejudice found here in BS profiles that close by asking viewers not to keep pestering them. Full of catfish, scammers and those who deludedly think they're very attractive people. Another one to avoid.
