Hello again, MofD, have let Christmas/NewYear pass but still no news. Am dealing with Bank now and Trading Standards/Police to follow.
It would be interesting to know if their shed is open and taking money!!The moving finger, having writ, moved on.0 -

Well guys I went there today and it doesn't look good I'm afraid.
The unit (they are based on an industrial estate) was all locked up and this was around 12.45pm so giving them the benfit of the doubt I went to the unit next door to ask if it was closed for lunch.
It seems that the owners have been there but only occassionaly and the guy I spoke to said that he had been told that the telephone number no longer worked.
So I guess if you've had money taken from your account the best thing I can suggest is that you contact the bank to arrange a charge back.2014 Target;

Hi MofD.
A real big thank you for your kind visit and the information.
Have already contacted bank and Trading Standards, although no replies yet. Thanks again.The moving finger, having writ, moved on.0 -
Thanks Mountainofdebt for taking the time to visit and reporting back.
It sounds as though they have problems but their site is still up and running and taking honest folks hard earned cash.
I will also send the details to their local Trading Standards Department I will let you know how I get on.
Many thanks again..................................0 -
I think that the trading standards contact details can be found here:

Hurrah success at last...........
I contacted trading standards last week and they replied saying that The Work Basket is known to them and they would talk to them on my behalf.
I received an email from The Work Basket today confirming a refund back to my credit card (no apology mind but I guess you can't have everything!!!!!!!!!!!)
A big thank you to mountainofdebt for all your time and trouble.0 -
I use to belong to a well know magazine cross stitch forums and people where always moaning about the work basket.
I gave them a wide berth of them.
Glad that you got your money back.
Yours
