    I have been told exactly how xl trading operates and how he works all this but i cannot comment until he has been to court and convicted.I was told it is going to take longer as there is now police forces abroad involved as they try to follow a chain and check all customers who have bought from these people.DO NOT POST ON HIS BOARD AS YOU MAY REALISE WHAT HE IS UP TO
  • Have a look at the Paypal bit on XL's site. Lol

    "It has come to our attention that people are ordering and when the order has started to process, they put in a claim.
    You do know this is ILLEGAL do you not and we will be put in the most time and attention to prosecute when in such a position.

    Over the course of three days, three seperate claims have been lodged against us for large orders especially for overseas orders. This is not acceptable.

    If you are an overseas customer, you MUST expect a slight delay in receiving your goods as this is totally different from our UK service.

    For our customers in the UK, we will pursue any illegal or fraudulent claims against us via PayPal to the full extent of the law.

    We are NOT crooks. <PMSL!>
    Your money is TOTALLY SAFE until your order reaches you."

    :rotfl: Classic..

    Their cure for everything seems to be to extend legal threats to everyone, even their potential customers.

    They don't like it when a few customers scam them... :rotfl::rotfl:

    Still laughing at that.. :T

    Don't panic people - the Sky cards are just offline until we sort out a technical problem on the cards themselves.
    We are working with Sky to sort the issue and we will have them available in the next week or two.

    I wonder what the "technical problem" is? Maybe the master card from which the cloned cards are spawned from has been blocked?
    BTW, I did a search on the Sky forum & XL is'nt even mentioned there.One would think that if XL have the backing from Sky,that's one place you'd advertise yourself....:confused:
