  • I'm just curious, did those of you who got refunds from Paypal use a credit card to pay for your buggies? I used a Visa card, so I'm wondering if Paypal will still give me the money back?

    I used visa debit card - the first £150 they refunded me back straight to my bank account and the rest £200 to my paypal account. £150 showed in my account after 3 days and £200 on the next day.

    I have my money back now :) I had an email saying they were able to recover the amount! I paid part through Paypal funds and part through Visa Debit and the amounts have gone back on both. I'm glad it's all sorted now and have only ended up payin £20 more for the pushchair.

    Through Ebay.
  • I have received my money in my paypal account today. A little history:
    • bought from ebay for 100gbp on 12th of Sep
    • filed and escalated claim on 9th of Oct
    • was told by paypal that they'll wait till 19th of Oct for seller's response
    • after 19th, I sent 2 emails to paypal with a response that my case is still on-going and it has been passed to relevant department
    • At last today i.e. 24th, I received email from them that they have decided in my favor
    I'll have to wait for a few days till the funds gets cleared and I hope that I'll have my money back into my account soon.

    Best of luck everyone

    We paid through paypal on visa debitt card and didn't get any money, but we didn't buy through ebay. It seems everyone who bought through ebay is getting money!

    looking back through the postings it seems everyone who has recieved an email saying the dispute has been found in their favour has recieved the money back EXCEPT Ivoops who got £150 of £325 back and me who got NONE of the £325 back!!!! Anyone want to do a whip round...... that news is quite depressing! :o(

  • What worries me is that the website is still up and running for this conman!

    Have any of you who are in contact with the police mentioned this?

    It is concerning that many more mums to be may be unaware that the whole thing is a scam!
    I would hate to see yet more people taken advantage of...............

    I have mentioned it and sent emails to the website 'design' company but to no avail!

    I apologise for the insult! I would bow to you to grovel at my mistake if I could bend over!! At least you don't have speed cameras anymore (See that was keeping up with the current affairs of Swindon!!;) )
