    Salisbury is getting them with local tel no.
    We've had it, so have a very elderly couple we know.
  • Getting them in Hinckley, with local telephone number. seems this company is still trading. Hopfully with lots of people googling their name they will find these comments and company will fold.
  • Just recieved one in london se2.straight in bin.:t
  • I received one of these through the post yesterday, in Hinckley Leicestershire. It looked legitimate, I even showed a couple of mates who thought it was legit too especially as it gives a local phone number and not the usual 0845 or 0870. Luckily I looked on the web and found this, when will this stop? It's not so bad for those who have internet access and can check things out, but for anyone else it's so unfair to get sucked into these scams.
    Unfortunately I'd already thrown the envelope away!
    It will be going in the bin!
  • Just joined this forum to let you know I received one today - in SE2, Abbey Wood London.

    Rang the number (because I didn't google it first) - Asked me if I had heard of a gym called "The gym" loooool... I said don't be stupid, and she said I had "won £750 of free membership but have to pay a small administrsation charge of £3.10 per week"...

    For me it was a gym called "The Gym in Welling, DA16 3AT" - RIP OFF.

    So I told her to f**k off and hung up.:money::rotfl::T

    Received today in Nuneaton - giving Hinckley phone number. Quoting here so hopefully search engines will pick it up. DO NOT CALL 01455 570069 DO NOT CALL

    "Survey UK" says "You will not be asked to do any surveys." Get away!!!!! :rolleyes:

    Can I suggest others put in the phone number appearing on the slip, so search engines can pick them up. But PLEASE double check the number before you hit Submit. We don't want innocent local firms suffering :)
  • I have just received one, so now being sent in Kent, thanks so much for your assistance in respect of this scam
