    Director, technician Mr Neill Alvey
    Company secretary Ms Caroline Alvey

    I'm not sure if I'm reading this right (need an expert on this!) but looks like it closed with liabilities of over £6000.
    I presume these would have to paid off before he could direct a new company?

  • Just checked with UKMail - nothing for me either!

    I'm going overseas at the end of Feb so I don't suppose I'll see the £85.00 again either as I won't be able to pursue it after that.:mad:

    But I'm not going to let it drop until and will add my name to everything going so that the powers that be know just how many people this man has let down.

    I don't normally get wound up about things like this but Neil Alvey is a DISGRACE and deserves everything coming to him :mad:
    In the meantime, I'm going to have a great Christmas and hope that you all do too! x

    I've just got through to UK mail and they have nothing out for delivery for me. I got an email reply from Neil on 22nd saying one has gone out for delivery to me. My faith in him coming right in the end has now gone. I was pleasant and offered to wait and get the Christmas items replaced for others, so there was no reason to lie. I'm really annoyed now, and along with other people, I can't claim back, as I paid in August by paypal.:mad:

    As UKMail didn't have anything on Friday and given the email sent on the weekend from him I'm assuming nothing will be heading our way.

    Which, from my point of view, is now a good thing to aid the PayPal and bank claims.
    Ever stop to think and forget to start again?

    Not sure if I am looking at the info correctly, but different director numbers for the 2 ltd companies and names spelt differently. One is Neill Alvey and the other Neil Alvey?

    I have posted another message on trading standards facebook page. Can everyone who isn't getting a delivery do the same so they can see there has been little movement on the orders since their last visit.

    The link is here
