Helping people to get their money back is a nice gesture, but still people get fucked by Darren. If Eddie knows him, it should be possible to talk to
him, and tell him to close down his business. If he is not willing to do so, I am sure that talking to the police will change his mind.
But none of that was done, right?
It's hard to get someone defending your rights, when you don't even know for sure the correct adress of the person who ows you money.
Understand? Kind Regards

Tracey, I have no real knowledge of the legal system and conveyancing and you may already have looked into this, but I'm fairly sure that your
claim for compensation would be against your own solicitor. As your solicitor is no longer trading, your claim would be against whatever insurance
company he had his professional indemnity insurance with. To sort that, you really need to instruct another solicitor to take an action against the
first/his insurers. Many of them offer a free half-hour consultation - my wife's employment problems were sorted out simply by advising her
employer of what "our solicitor" had told us during just such a consultation.

I think you expect too much. If Eddie and Darren have fallen out it means that Darren no longer listens to anything that Eddie says. It is not
reasonable for you to expect anyone over here to go and see Darren for you. Please do go to the police or consult a British Solicitor use the Small
Claims Court - these are your options.

Chresten... understand this matey!
Eddie is not a business associate of GTS. Nor is he the man who runs the Locostbuilders website. He is just another member. A guy like you and me!
He just happens to know DG and he tried to resolve a few problems that were aired on here to be HELPFUL! So it didn't work!? That's not
Eddie's fault!
I think you need to wind your neck in and focus your angry energies SOLELY on GTS! As any sympathy that was coming your way for falling victim to the
DG swindle is quickly starting to fade!
It's Evolution Baby!

More than happy that Eddie is a nice guy. Still way out of my depth, but grateful for his help. T

ps have just been informed correctly this time, who our solicitors insurers are. Have lodged application against them to solicitors covering
complaints - waiting to hear, but not holding out much hope - been a long slog, but you never know, may be sorted. New info about restriction to pay
off DG's bill to a courier company in Essex finished me off. Thank you to the post who mentioned this, all help gratefully received. Thank
you. T

Still I don't think you get this rigth. I am not angry!!! I am just confused, why nothing has been done to get to the root of this problem.
You're saying Eddie is a nice guy... I believe you - But why didn't take any further steps? It would have been much more relaxing for him
as well. I can't imagine it to be fun trying to sort out problems that Darren causes each time he bumps a new customer.

I didn't, but I have no reason to suspect that he's not a nice guy.

Surely it's time Locostbuilders distanced itself from Darren - a sticky at the top of the subforum saying he's a bit of a crook allegedly
(in nicer legal terms) or something perhaps ........ BORED BORED BORED with all these 'he ripped me of' threads, it's what he does,
it's what he always does......... he's a muppet

If you're that bothered about DG could I ask what YOU have done about ???
You've got his address now so what's YOUR next move ??
Other than coming on here of course and having a go and someone who did try to help out other members.
I spoke to Ed when thinking of ordering some bits from GTS - he gave me sound honest advice which resulted in no order being placed.

Hey, so now you think you're being smart.
Be happy that you were warned in time but don't talk about stuff you haven't seen yourself. Or maybe you have enough money that 1000
pounds is nothing to bother about. But you were asking for the steps that I took.
Let me check:
1) I wrote 4 mails asking Darren to get this issues settled - didn't work (but ok that wasn't too much effort)
2) I talked to my bank but since I wasn't fast enough (in between 2 weeks) they couldn't help me to get back my money.
3) I talked to my solicitor in germany (yes I am not living in UK, which doesn't really symplify things)
4) The solicitor wasn't able to help, cause it was Great Britain, but he knew a colleque in UK who wrote Darren.
5) I waited again (that's what I always did - you really have to wait a lot)
still no responce
6) Than I wrote a letter a dunning letter
7) Now I will go for a court claim
You know what's funny? I am the one who lost 1000 pounds. But it seems in this forum there's noone who actually wants to make a change.
That's sad but since I know how much effort it takes (I had to figure out myself) I don't blame anybody for it.

I think pretty much everyone on this forum would want Darren George to change. What I don't understand is what you expect us to do about it?
The way the Law works in this country is that the injured party - you in this case - must go to the court to get satisfaction for your complaint. None
of us can do this for you. It's very simple.

Good quote but wrong  Imagine the following situation. You see someone getting robbed on the street. This bad person who is now running away with a
big bag full of money used to be a friend of yours. But you are a nice guy so when the victim askes you for help you give him all the required
information immediately. Story end
Until now I haven't received a working phone number and I am still not sure which of those adresses that fly around in this forum is the correct
one now. Eddie hasn't told me how to get a hand on him.
Anyhow, story has ended long before...
Have a good night... No bad feelings please, I was just hoping to find someone I can rely on, when it comes to details about Darren George.
But I guess it's fun to have a topic causing so many threats in this forum.
