Notice that this post is not slanderous or nasty just in case I get nailed for it :)

Glad you are finally getting sorted out. Is Person threatening you with action over slander or libel? If so, he can only make a case for slander or libel if what you have said or written is false. If you have spoken the truth there is no case.

Glad you got your money back incubate.

I wish I could say the same. I haven't heard a peep from Brian since Friday.

But, like I said, he has until end of day on Monday to get my new card to me and give my money back, or I'm going to the police.

And no that's not a threat Brian, it's a fcking promise.

You messed with the wrong bloke...

Good for You at least! I hope person will come clean here ASAP! So things can return to normal? If ever! If he is in da USA and can supply direct then it would be great for all, but he will have to work damn hard to regain trust. It would be nice to know who the JHB office contact is! as Cape town is dead as a duck in the oven!
You can't be serious. Only a fool would buy from him again.

Indeed, that's like going back to Telkom [after you canceled all lines/connections due to bad service and costs] and thinking you will mysteriously get better service now ....just a little naive there. Besides Pc Retail is pretty much a free-for-all, if one bloke goes down there are 50 others ready to take his place [and hopefully LEARNING from the previous bloke going down].

That's the problem with a one-man show , easy to replace ;) . A large national company, on the other hand is not as easy to replace . Just getting on the same level as say Incredible Connection can take years [in terms of shops etc]....replacing a one-man show , probably a weekend is sufficient.

Couldn't agree with you more. You'd have to be half-witted to even consider having any dealings with this dishonest little pr1ck.

Read your E-mail... IF I DONT HAVE YOUR BANKING DETAILS HOW AM I MEANT TO PAY YOU ?

So?

Now what? No card... no proof of payment...

Brian, I'm really starting to get to the end of my line here.

Get your arse in gear and get this sorted out, please.

It's not amusing anymore.

You do realise you have destroyed your own companies name? By providing the service you did and treating your customers the way you did you have basically made sure nobody from this forum will buy from you again.

Well done.

EDIT - Just to make sure you understand, my above post is not a defamatory remark. Its a fact. You only have yourself to blame for what happened.

100% agreed! This and all the other forums where he has neglected customers resulting in them dragging his name through the mud.

What I find REALLY find amusing though is:

Does he really honestly think there is ANYTHING he can do? Bad news dude - if you are in the wrong there is ABSOLUTELY nothing you can do! No use threatening legal action as no-one except you has actually done anything wrong.

BTW - he has been asking for his money back from way before the 9th of June when you finally replied. No use getting cross now because you have FINALLY replied. You ignored customers for a long time before that!

I have seen nothing that could be held to be defamatory. Defamation implies unlawfulness, and what we have seen here could be termed "fair comment" or "truth for the public benefit", which are quite lawful - in fact quite altruistic too!

So kindly shove your empty threats where the sun don't shine, pal, and take a hike!

haha

Also, Person, if you're too busy to reply to customers why do you spend hours every day browsing MyADSL forums? You're pretty pathetic, you know?

No more entertaining liaisons?? You spoilsport! Sad! I THOUGHT there were women involved in here somewhere. :D :D

On a more serious note I suggest you stop making such a fool of yourself on public forums. Oh, and if you want to make "legal" threats I suggest consulting a lawyer FIRST!

Person did you even read THIS post ? If so why are you still claiming to be a "SOLE DISTRIBUTOR" for Alienware :confused: If anyone should be taking legal action I'm thinking it should be Alienware?
