Received cheque from Harrisons this morning.
Final dividend = 30.332p
+£483.00, owed to T-Mobile
-£146.50, cheque from Harrisons
£336.50, Loss per annum
I’m grateful for Harrisons cheque but annoyed that Forward Cellular, a company which had such a good track record and was trusted my many, in my opinion used the Christmas rush to maximise their income safe in the knowledge that no cash back deal would be honoured as Administrators had already been “Pre-booked” for January.
If the husband and wife directors of Forward Cellular ever read this post
I would like to return the two fingered salute you gave all of us!!

A rather pathetic end to a sorry saga. Has anyone read the letter that came with the cheque? I have never dealt with administrators before, but this sounds crazy. The fact that they reduced the amount of money available for creditors for EVERY enquiry they received from the creditors shows how much of a scam it is. After all, we received very little official communication from them; to charge us to find out what has happened to the money should seem scandalous to anyone of a moneysaving mentality. All they need to do to increase their healthy profit is tell us nothing.
And on top of all that, the cheque they sent us was dated 04/08/03... (i'd advise you all to check yours). what jokers! No doubt if we ring them to complain the next cheque will be for a smaller figure... grrrr...0 -
Just checked the date on my cheque from Harrisons and it is 04/08/05.
I did read their letter and I agree with you. Harrisons failed to keep us informed.
To then charge for every telephone enquiry answered is sharp practice indeed.
As always it's the innocent consumer that ends up losing.

I would agree MR and MRS Forward Cellular shafted us knowingly.
Lessoned to be learnt DONT GET CASH BACK unless it from one of the BIG companies, Its safer but still not guaranteed.
This was my 4th cashback deal, 2nd from forward Cellular, the first got paid out !
First time iv had my fingers burnt........It doesnt cost anything to smile, yet when it occurs its priceless.0 -
