please before dealing with these people,bear in mind that they are selling things that we have paid for..they are in essence selling "stolen property"..i would rather have no furniture than give that man my money...

I know where you're coming from and I thought the same but then I just thought I'd be cutting off my nose to spite my face. What am I to do; give Magnet £9,000? Or should I get a cheap kitchen from Ikea? If items are damaged I'll have to deal with that. If they're not, I don't need a 12 month guarantee on what is essentially a few sheets of laminated chipboard. (getting the appliances and worktop elsewhere).

mfistock ar rip off merchants who think they have a monopoly on those that also got ripped off from mfi,
I paid 354.80 for a double wardrobe & a corner wardrobe but didnt get the 3 doors,
The Con artists want £450 for just the 3 doors.
I'd rather do with out & wait til they go on ebay than pay you (MFI linked?)any more of my money

Has anyone recieved any items yet from trading bargains as they took my order last week and the money was taken off my card. But i have had no conformation of the order and no delivery date as yet, and i am starting to get worried. they are not responding to my emails and their phones are busy.

Hi is anybody else in my position?
We had a 99% complete order of mfi bedroom furniture missing the wardrobe door panels!
We arranged finance with Blackhorse and the website says people like us must wait to be contacted by the administrators re a partial refund so I haven't done anything about claiming via them or credit card (used for the deposit).
Has anybody been contacted by the administrators yet? Or has anybody tried claiming from credit card in my position.
I'm really not sure what if anything I should be doing. Blackhorse said I have to speak to administrators and can't get any reply to emails I send to the administrators.

I have received an order today from Trading Bargains -well packaged and in good order - like everyone else I suspect there is more to this setup than meets the eye (after all the Trading Bargains 01405 number is only a few digits apart from the MFI 01405 call centre number!!) nevertheless I only had three doors missing that they have sold me (delivered) for less than the mfi price of one and I can now finish the kitchen and hopefully put this whole sad affair to an end - Good luck to everyone else with getting some sort of result !

p.s. if it's of any help I ordered by phone on the 4th Feb and received today 10th

I ordered a kitchen, then a unit door seperately. The door came today and I got a call saying that I would get a text this Thursday telling me what time they expect to arrive on Friday. I'll definately post on Friday to report on how things turn out.

btw, I've never recieved confirmation from mcr saying they've recieved my proof of purchase. What are others doing who ar in the same position? I've just got this horrible feeling I'm going to wait nine months and then they're going to say "Sorry, didn't recieve it". Any advice?

Had A Phone Call Off Some Kitchen Company Last Night Saying " Mfi Had Passed My Details Onto Them And Were Doing 50% Off All Kitchens And Were We Interested In Purchaseing Another Kitchen "
Are These People Deranged ?
I Would Like My Money Back 1st Then I Will Be Buying 1 From A Reputable Company That Don't Rip Its Cutomers Off .
