i too have just discovered the rip off with etoo. i paid my £850 about 3months ago. went to the presentation today for the so called buyer, club class concierge..told them where to stick it. couldn't believe what i discovered on the net later. so here i go too, trying to get my money back. any one got anything new to add, bearing in mind the tv adverts on the go.

ETOO have now been heavily criticised by the ASA after 52 people complained about misleading adverts :-

So are they the same company that I'm thinking of who advertise on daytime TV? With the very simplistic ads that look like a PowerPoint presentation?

I imagine that it's the same company, as the ASA ruling does mention TV adverts.

Here is a very interesting article from the Mirror about the ASA ruling and the staggering amounts of money that this company has taken from people :-

Never, ever pay up-front on the promise that a buyer has been found. Ask that any payment be deducted from the funds recevied from the buyer, and the balance forwarded onto you.
