Looking at other posts on this site I think I've been waiting the longest. So if you've had the message to say item despatched don't hold your breath.

For those of us still waiting, I suggest we atleast get some pay back on these guys. If any of you use any formus other than this one. Make sure you post a message telling the WORLD about these guys. Then hopefully other people will avoid these idiots.

Happy New Year to you all.
Im afraid I have been waiting since the 11th Nov 2007 mate. Despatched on the 12th Nov 2007 still no card and no money back.

Same position Taff, ordered 9th, payment taken right away, no confirmation mail, no dispatch notice, no reply to any mails sent to mike over the passed 3 weeks...

I note that plenty of people who ordered after the 9th have got their goods now, while were left hanging, and that Mikes off on a New Year holiday with our money while we sit wondering whats going on...

i still find it unbelievable that model-gadget was advertising r4ds that they didnt even have in stock , i cant imagine anyone on this forum that have been badly let down would even dream of ordering again or recommending to friends or family .

sending out m3ds simply as replacements for r4ds is fair enough as they are near enough the same thing , but it seems that model-gadget has run out of m3ds simplys as well ! ( as no-one is recieving anything at the moment )

bang out of order model-gadget , as cjtiler says honour your debts !

I have just emailed Mike with the following to the address he says we should use on the website (modelgadget@hotmail.co.uk), and would urge other in the same boat as us to do the same.

I will post notification on any replys that I get, and would ask that others who mail him do the same, just so we can see if he is actually doing what his site says he is...

Please can we have some for of update on the following transaction, placed on the 9th December as we have tried to contact you
nemerous times via email and phone, with no reply:

Transaction details:
Transaction for the value of: GBP 70.73
Description: Purchase from www.model-gadget.com


Transaction is for 2x M3's and 2x1Gb micro SD cards. We paid for next day delivery, which we are still waiting on, almost 20 days later.


If we do not hear anything by the 9th of January 08 we will assume that you are in breach of Distance Selling Regulations:

-Contract performance

-You must deliver goods or provide services within 30 days, beginning -with the day after the consumer sent an order,
-unless you agree otherwise with the consumer.
-
-If you are unable to meet the deadline, you must inform the consumer -before the deadline expires and,
-unless a revised date is agreed, the consumer must be refunded within -a further period of 30 days.
-
-The consumer cannot be obliged to agree to a revised date. If he or -she does not, then the contract is
-thereby cancelled and any money paid must be returned within 30 days.
-
-If you wish to provide substitute goods or services, then this must -have been made clear in the prior information
-received by the consumer before entering the contract.

No alternate delivery timeframe has been offered by yourself, or agreed to by ourselves, due to the fact it is IMPOSSIBLE

to get a reply from you using any method (Your phone goes to message, and has done for the last 3 weeks; we have sent

in excess of 20 mails to all of your mail addresses, none of which have been replied to & the Skype facility on your site appears

to have been removed).



Least you can do i the circumstances is give us some form of timeframe for delivery. An free upgrade of the order to 2Gb cards would
go a long way to restoring our faith in your company.

If we do not hear anything from you soon, we will be forced to claim the full payment back from worldpay, and contact your local (Surrey)
trading standards, as others on the After Dark forum which I'm sure you are aware of
(http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/32/593234#3661754 - Ordered from Model-gadget.com) appear to be doing.

Several more have had their financial info removed txs to another alert member.

All - If you think not getting your order from Model-Gadget is bad - imagine what will happen if someone gets a hold of the personal/financial information you've posted. It will be much worse.
DO NOT POST IT.

Hi I have had the same experience as you guys - I have just reported this to Watchdog as it's a joke and worldpay do not seem to be contactable or interested - they are probably still handling money so this guy can rip other people off. I have to wait 30 days and then the bank are going to chase this rip off merchant - not fair!

FYI - I just got an email from Worldpay:

"I have forwarded your email to our compliance department as there is currently an investigation into this company. If our customers do not comply with our terms and conditions they we reserve the right to cancel their service.

To obtain your refund I would advise contacting your card issuing bank to start the chargeback dispute.

I apologise for the service you have received from this currently and WorldPay will take this issue seriously."

Is anyone worried about not actually ever receiving their goods? I made my order on 13th Dec, but I've heard nothing, not even a confirmation email of the order (although the money has been taken from my credit card).

I've sent numerous emails and tried to phone them, but there is never any reply. I'm even more suspicious now I see they have taken an extra long Xmas break.

I'm wondering whether I should be making inquiries about getting my money back from WorldPay, and then take my business elsewhere.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
