    The last 3 posts are from newbies (first post for each) stating how wonderful this company is - very, very suspicious!!!!! If the company just concentrated on customer service and let former customers 'unsubscribe' to thier junk e-mail ( I have tried loads but still get the junk) then they would not need to post these silly comments about how 'wonderful' they are. My advice - go to boots :-)

    And more added since- just makes me all the more wary, I;d have even given them some of the benefit of the doubt but what with the admin from thier site posting automated replies then strangly coincidental newbies posting about how great the site is...just raises too many alarm bells. Not looking for suppliments anyway but if I were I don't know if I could trust this company.

    When will they ever learn- the best form of advertising is word of mouth- its so much easier to read through the lines and see things for what they are when online.

    So we all have to post regularly to gain enough kudos to be believed. I personally have no affiliation to this company but have had a good experience from dealing with them and posted this info for others to share... other posters seem to spend their whole lives trawling forums trying to flame instead of adding relevent comments pertaining to the thread.

    All 4 of your posts stating how wonderful this company is - you have only made 4 posts in total. Do you not think this is a bit odd?

    This reminds me of the old con etailers online who suddenly surface on forums with loads of customers whove never posted on the site before stating how wonderfull they are.

    Whether this simply people are genuine or not, posts by customers stating how good they are always rings alarm bells.

    Its either a con or the people who run the site dont know internet marketing and thus dont know there business, so one to be warey of i think.

    So if I slated the company I would be OK as a previous poster did.. I have dealt with Simply and have commented as my experience was positive [as opposed to joining this forum]
