Anyone used afternoontea.co.uk?

I booked a 2 4 £15 afternoon tea deal at the Liverpool Hilton through this site, the Hilton has no record of the booking, plus the email address afternoontea gave for the Hilton was wrong, which was helpful.

I'm unsure if its a genuine site, although you don't part with cash untill you go the hotel itself, I have emailed them as yet no repsonse -has anyone experience of the site?

    The site doesn't look very professional to me.

    Reminds me of when I worked in Travel Inn. Dodgy websites would send email and fax bookings on occasion, these were bookings we couldn't honour as they had no card details and they were completely unsolicited (there may not have been any vacancies). Quite often the guest would arrive anyway and we would be able to give them a room. And invariably the website operator would bill us for their fee, which we never paid.

    I've made alternative arrangements now, at much greater costs, glad I did though as I think you're correct
