do you have a player that can play this file? I know its 3gp, but I dont really fancy transfering it to my phone just so I can watch it.

also do you have an expected price as yet?

Just a warning about this company. I bought a lead for £6.99 off their web site and payed with my credit card, about a month later they charged me £60 from my credit card, for no reason without telling me. I have phoned them twice and sent an email with a copy of my credit card statement showing the £60 they have taken and they still have not replied or returned my calls. As I say just a warning to any potential customers.

Hopefully this won't be deleted because they are a paying advertiser.

Just posting the facts.

Stupid question, but don't you have to flip the image to display it on the window as a HUD?

Nick why did you not bother to call like we asked you to?
As we needed a couple of days to go back through the records(like i said to you at the time)to check what had happened.
If you get in touch with your card info(we do not keep customers details after 1 month)we will get it sorted out for you asap.

this should never have happened in the first place should it?

it doesn't look like you are doing much to sort the problem out or this post wouldn't have been made!

i was thinking about this product but now, i don't think so!

thanks for the heads up Nick.

Listen mistakes happen,If people feel the need to make posts on forums rather than to call us directly then thats up to them and it seems rather pathetic and childish.
We are here 7 days a week and almost 12 hours a day to answer calls do you honestly think we would go out of way to screw a customer for £60?
If you don't want to purchase any of our products thats up to you and again it looks childish to post this type of stuff up does'nt it Gav?

I phoned you and told you about the £60, you said you would look into it and took my phone number and would get back to me, you didn't get back to me so I phoned again, then you said:

Then you said if I email you a copy of my statement showing the charge you made you would send me a cheque which I have been waiting for.

You didn't tell me this at the time thats why I have been waiting, about 1 month, for a cheque.

As above, I did phone you twice and emailed you but you have done nothing about it. I gave you my phone number, my address and my email over a month ago, I shouldn't need to chase you up.

People feel the need to make posts like this on public forums because firstly after trying the conventional route and nothing happens, the company concerned usually want to "sort it out asap" and secondly to warn other users, this is what forums are for.

I'm making a valid complaint and you start insulting me

I have pm'd you my details, hopefully you will sort this out.

Thanks Nick

Look we are not insulting you and we have not ignored you at all,I asked you to call us back which you did not do,Its not our fault you did not do what we asked you to do,And the reason we asked you to Call back is that we do not keep peoples card details for more than 1 month so how can we refund your card without your details(this is the only way we can refund you)?
Anyway thanks for your info you have pm'ed.
You could have delt wih the situation in a more adult way.
