Police Auction Recensioni 87

absolute scam...one would imagine it's a legitimate auction then it's just an ebook with useless informaton... using the police name for something like this should be illegal

Scum! Dirty scammers! Positioned as a link to get into a website via an advert masked as a legitimate link. The fact other people are rating more than 1 star because they were refunded after they were scammed is ridiculous and probably in on the scam. Business owner was Darren Keith Randall on companies house from Chelmsford Essex. No idea if he is involved but he's certainly linked in some way

It will take 5 days to process in paypal but they actually accepted the request quite fast. Other reviews suggest this company to be a scam but scammers dont refund.

Scam. I was led to believe that this was a genuine police auction, it's not, it's just a website that shows you where the police are holding auctions. You can look this info up on line yourself without paying them.

Not really worth the subscription fees imo but they give refund if you contact them to unsubscribe via their email.

Scam! You’ve been warned! It is an absolute scam! Do not fall for it and if you do, call your bank immediately and file for a chargeback.

Response from pa. com after blocking my account :
“We limit newer accounts in the amount they can purchase. We don't publish this amount for security reasons. As your account ages, limits will be lifted, although we do also have annual limits, again not published. We are also protecting your satisfaction since you have not received any items yet. As you are aware, we do not pay for return shipping.If you are unhappy with the items, you may return them for a refund, however, you will have to pay for the return shipping. Shipping internationally is expensive. Please keep that in mind.”

Seems to be a scam. Why should you pay £9.99 just to find out where police auctions are? Why is it such a secret? Surely police would want people to find their auctions? The police themselves should crack down on this.

It seams to be a legit business although induces the customer in error. I asked for a refund considering I didn’t find any direct connection to any police auctions. My membership payment was refunded and here is the answer to my claim, which was very much appreciated:

Good evening

Many thanks for your message.

I can confirm that the refund has been processed so the amount should be back with you shortly.

Apologies for the confusion; we are a private company (based in Farnham, Surrey) supplying weekly updates on auction houses that have been found to deal with items on behalf of the police and government organisations.

Hope that helps.

Best regards

I purchased a pair of White Gold 14 CT with Diamond’s earrings
What I got after waiting for ever to get was a pair of Tin garbage earrings
There was not ever half of diamond’s on them and they where not White Gold they where silver
I took them to my jeweller to make sure and was told to put them in the bin
I was very upset and disappointed as am a pensioner and it was not easy to purchase
I got in touch with them and was told to send them back but not responsible for postage
Not only they send me something that I didn’t purchase I had to pay $21.00 dollars to send it to UK
Disgusting Terrible customer service
Once they take your money they don’t know you
Please be careful and aware
They are scamming

ITS A HUGE SCAM
SOON AS I ENTERED MY NAME AN EMAIL IT WANTED 9.99 SUBSCRIPTION FEES. SO MY GUY FEELING TOLD ME TO LOOK UP POLICE AUCTION SITES AN I DID AN THE SITE I GOT UP WAS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM THIS ONE AN ALSO STATED THAT THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO AUCTIONS BEING HELD AN THE CURRENT AUCTION PROCESS IS BEING UPDATED. SO IF YOU CLICK ON THIS SITE LIKE I DID VIA AN ADVERTISEMENT ON A SEPARATE WEBSITE. DO NOT GIVE YOUR INFORMATION AN DO NOT PAY EITHER. JUST LOOK UP POLICE AUCTIONS YOURSELF ON GOOGLE AN OT SHOULD TAKE YOU TO YOUR LOCAL POLICE WEBSITE WHERE YOU CAN FIND LEGITIMATE INFORMATION THAT YOU SURE DONT NEED TO PAY FOR.
LIKE OTHERS HAVE STATED THE POLICE NEED TO TAKE DOWN THIS SCAM SITE.
SO PLEASE REPORT IT

Yes, should not be given a Star because a company should not ask for money before you could start viewing what goods/products they have.
Scam.

Good job of Check the review about this website is hundred percent scam. Police should tackle this company that they’re making behalf of them.

Nothing but a scam. Stay clear.

This is a scam - do not use

questionable as to why police have not investigated since they use the name of the police to promote the site and justify the subscription

Once again Trust Pilot has saved me from a scam. Thanks people xx

My gut feeling told me that it was a scam by asking to pay a subscription fee to join the Police auction mailing list for info on up and coming auctions. Quite ironic really that the Police haven't cracked down on this scammer company (or Trading Standards) to stop their shenanigans. I certainly didn't pay and I warn others not to either.

Scam.payed before for a lifetime subscription and they still ask for money

The information received with the subscription can be readily found (free) on ibidder, bidspotter etc. .. then add John Pye.

As someone who tried to make a living buying / seling @ auction for the past 3 years trust me when I advise you that you're entering a world of murky tat. I made > 1000 puchases and after costs had been considered made money on 10% of them, still have > 100 items that I cannot sell, many I have been unable to give away .. so have binned. They go through too many sticky fingers before you get the chance to bid for them.
