    waiting supposedly on my "ipad pro" "3rd of December" :s has anyone actually managed to successfully receive an order from this website? 
    Wait, you're saying you're still waiting for your iPad since December 3rd, 2019? You're probably never getting that money back unless you take action against 3PP which is what all the victims should do.
    no haha! ordered on 29th of oct for 3rd of dec 2020 =]

    I too may have fallen for this scam. Ordered an iPad after looking at reviews on Trustpilot and was given a delivery date of 12/11-3/12. I've heard nothing so far. I've since become increasingly wary of the Trustpilot page and some more searching has led me here. I'm still holding out hope that the iPad might materialise, but if not it's useful to talk to others in the same position and as a previous post says, the more of us to throw weight against any potential action the better.
    there might be some hope for us, my ipad is also due on the 3rd maybe ours are in the same "cointainer" :S

    Haha! I'll definitely be eating humble pie if it arrives!
  • A user that goes by Kevin Draper posted his review on Trustpilot, but it already has been greyed out as 3PP reported it. Hopefully he'll find his way to this forum and share his experience.

    3PP have no shame because if "they" did, "they" wouldn't be scamming people nor censoring them.

    I'll be sending Companies House an email regarding this fraudulent company in hopes that they can look into it and take action, but those who lost their money need to take action too or else this is all in vain.

    Will have to wait until the delivery date has passed as thats when bank will take action. In the meantime, please flag reviews on TP..I see a lot of 5 star reviews about how people have received their phones have cropped up..Fake is written all over it!! please flag them and it will go to TP for review...

    Unable to.



    No sane or genuine customer would say: "Order now for Xmas tho if you want the low price"

    That's not a review, yet it's a "review" with none other than five stars.

    I doubt that they will do anything as they do not police companies. Only report the accounts etc.

    If you want to report them you need to look at their local trading standards. Then get all the other new posters to do the same.

    What if the boat takes a wrong turn at Hong Kong? Everyone might get an email to tell them that shipping has been delayed until January! Or worse, what if the boat sinks? 

    For a company that has three warehouses - of which everyones product seems to be coming from the other side of the world on a tanker, it's interesting they've never sent anything from the much closer warehouses that actually resulted in anyone receiving something.
