Datakits uk...help!!

srobb

I recently made an account with datakits.co.uk when I discovered they had a Fatman Itube on sale for £134.99 (far cheaper than any other retailer). However when I went to purchase the item it said it was "currently out of stock but is on order from suppliers so continue to the checkout and it will be delivered within 5 business days". By this stage I had already provided my personal details (name, address, email address) to form the account and had selected PayPal as the method of payment. However I did not log into my PayPal account and complete the payment as I smelt a rat. Sure enough, after 'googling' datakits.co.uk I discovered a string of complaints from customers who had never recieved their goods from this company nor been able to get any repsonse from them. Some threads even claimed the company has been dissolved.

Immediately I logged into my Datakits account, wishing to close the account. On my account history it said I had ordered the Fatman Itube, provided me with an order number, detailed my billing address and stated the payment method-PayPal. Has this happened to anyone else? I never logged into PayPal and completed the payment but the way it appears on my Datakits account is as if I have completed the order. Immediately paranoid I cancelled my card and rang PayPal, who said it hasn't gone through, but I'm still concerned that it might not have shown up on my account yet.

Has anyone had a similar experience that they could advise me??? Also I want to close my account with Datakits now (as I am unhappy they have a record of my details) but cant find any link to do this. Again, can anyone advise me??

I'm praying the transaction hasn't gone through, it was for £150, but will have to wait a few days to see if it appears on my account. In reality it shouldn't have been able to as I never completed the payment but the order history on the website seems to state otherwise.

Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
