can anyone confirm this company is trading as grumpy but goregous. com

They are certainly located in the same area as Little Divaz. Domain created on 11 Jan 2011 and registered to Simon Mailley of Halesowen. The email address on whois is katerinakos@live.com. The owner of LD was called Katie? And IIRC she used a live.com email address? The modus operandi of Grumpy But Gorgeous spouts the same "we cover the whole of the UK" as LD. If you google the email address it leads to this link:

So, is the lady on the Facebook page the same lady as the one on the About Us page on Grumpybutgorgeous? Is this the Katie of LD?

Well done, yes this is the kate from little divaz. I thought it was her new site.

This is my first post, I check this site all the time but now feel, I must share what has happened to me to save any parents going through the same.
I booked a girls pamper party for my daughters 7th birthday through a company on the net with great reviews, I paid in full as she offered a 10% discount to pay in full through Google check out, A week before the party I tried to contact her to confirm everything was in place and ok, her website was down, emails I sent got returned as unknown recipient, I tried to call all of the various numbers she has, I left messages I heard nothing, by now I feel I have been conned, so I called Consumer Direct who stated I had no case till she did not turn up, I got a friend to text the company again and got a reply stating she would be at the party, this still did not put my mind at rest so I texted asking why she would not contact me, she replied with don't be funny about it, I then called the number and to my suprise she answered well to cut a long story short she said she could not cope with her job, I stated I had lost faith and wanted a refund she refused and slammed the phone down on me.
I now have a devastated child, but through some investigation have found lots of parents who have booked parties and she never arrived, we are contacting Consumer Direct again so she can be stopped from ruining kids dream parties.

Grumpy But Gorgeous...As in the phrase that La Senza put all over their pyjamas and underwear etc?

Original!

trumpton

Yes I would think that is copyrighted. Maybe the OP could email la Senza with a link to the site as they might take exception to her using their phrase.

Sorry to bring this back up again but back in 2010 we were conned by this woman and had local press coverage and trading standards involved. I have seen just the katie of little divaz is advertising a new job working for them and i see from the posts above she is still up to her old tricks. If anyone comes into contact with this company don't touch with a barge pole as more often than not she will let you child down.
