    Sorry you have had to deal with these vermin! Also that they marred your holiday experience. This is a basically unregulated business which uses intimidation and blackmail to obtain money from you.

    They could have a debit/credit card facility but that would give the person they fleece the opportunity for a charge back.

    Once again I am sorry this has happened but rest assured we are doing all we can here to have these vermin exterminated!
  • Very sorry to hear you fell foul of these "fine people", we're not allowed to call them what we really mean, I hope you don't think we are all like them. I don't know if you would be successful with a chargeback but its worth a try.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.
  • Very sorry to hear about your experience when visiting here, and even more sorry to hear those ******** are still operating their scam outfit.

    I'm sure we all got excited when last year it was announced that this type of activity will be banned and made illegal at last.

    Unfortunately it looks like right now, it is still within the law because the Freedom Bill has been delayed until next month.

    As soon as the ban comes into effect, I would be tempted with personally going down there and waving them goodbye on their last day of work! :T
