    Dealtastic's owner, Jonathan Ruff, also runs the Memorybits and Zoombits websites. These sites are notorious for their poor customer service reputation as shown by this thread on MSE:

    Dealtastic don't feel it's necessary to have a phone number on their website. I wonder why?

    I think that he is no longer connected with Memorybits / Zoombit, however dealtastic did use their email database when they launched, obviously without the recipients permission.
    Not really the best way to get new customers and establish credibility.

    wow! you're following me around- all i can say is that I have had very good experiences of Dealtastic as I'm sure many have- I have also had very good experiences of Ministry of Deals which I have earlier stated! dont put 2&2 together re my name.
    If you'd like to know what other site I like It would be ibood.co.uk!

    re:your name, its a remarkable co-incidence that a marketing manager at dealtastic just happens to use the same name on twitter. But I guess only an idiot would use the same name.
  • Hmm, plenty of options for deals of the day then! And enough banter to satisfy!

    Ya exactly-just a coincidence I guess? Just like when you type jsoap into google- all coincidences... get a life mate and leave people make up their own minds about what sites are good instead of peddling your little vendetta..
  • Here's me making up my own mind, they have my money, don't answer emails either from their own webage or via the posted email address. they have not enabled my access to my "account" and I cannot reset my password. They did not aknowledge the order, I will be instructing my bank to get the money back from Dealtastic as they are clearly Scammers.

    Dear Blaggard,

    My name is Kevin, I am the affiliate Manager for Dealtastic, I oversee all our Internet Activity and marketing. I joined the company In October of this year, just after we launched our site. I can 100% confirm that we are not "scammers"..And that we take our jobs and customer service very highly. We are aware because our site is very new we have had a few teething problems, which is regrettable, but to be excepted. If you have contacted our customer services team, but are still yet to have a response, I can only apologise, and in the meantime, please feel free to send me a private message and I will personally chase this and get you a response within the hour, as this is not our normal level of customer service, and I would like to look at to why this has happened. Rest assured I will confirm your order as soon as you contact me.

    I am also aware of the comments raised on this site, and again, as I have said on other sites, we are working very hard to provide a quality website and value all constructive feedback. We will always look to improve and listen to our customers to provide a better service..I also note some comments about our MD and a couple of former websites that he sold earlier this year, again I can post the legal statement from his lawyer and offer my services to chat to any customer who has any comments concerns or questions..


    Regards

    Kevin
    Dealtastic
