ozzy518 Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Does anyone know if this Wigan based outfit are still in business? Their website has gone and I'm wondering if they have finally gone bust. Only ever dealt with them once before , an experience I vowed never to repeat.

mel b3 Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 im guessing you mean the decoying guys , the last time i heard they had gone to the wall then changed the company name and started trading again, if you do a google youll find hundreds of complaints about them , its a shame really as once upon a time they seemed like really nice guys and even sponsored pw for a while.

The company you are referring to has never "sponsored" Pigeon Watch, nor advertised on Pigeon Watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 the owner is still on the stalking directory sounding like he is running a company, the one mentioned hasn't been officially shut with companies house but it does have a zero credit rating and a few CCJ's against its name. I'd assume he has just set up again from a different address Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzy518 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Cheers Guys, I do check their reviews now and again just to see if they are still the same cowboy outfit I dealt with. Utter shambles of a company , I'll be raising a glass if they have gone pop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRNDL Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 The main concern is not the company that closes...but the one that opens with an aligned mask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Mongrel- Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 I don't recall exactly but know there was a hoo-ha about it at some point and we were asked not to. Maybe the mods could explain further? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzy518 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 I did put the name of the place in full in the title but it got edited out. The shop has been subject to many threads on PW , concerning the abysmal way they operated. Taking people's orders and payment and nothing received for months. Trading standards got involved too. I suspect that the owner of the shop, (same name as the bass player in Queen) threatened legal action as lots of PW posts quite rightly slated him. But, as the shop now appears to be no more in existence , surely it cannot be wrong to name it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
