PositionMEonline and Reeltime Media review: Business in Trouble??? 74

Design Expert are ###ing you up :)

We have been contacted by several people over the last couple of days asking to move their business catalyst website from position in online to our partner portal. The clients are being asked to move to design experts all sounds very cloak and dagger.

What a strange and twisted bunch of comments.

How much meth do you smoke per week bud

Message this account on this complaints board if youre curious.

Im sorry for ruining your lovely little thread. Babe.

Yeah its heated because james mawhinney deliberately tried to destroy the company and is now trying to blame somebody else as well as the fact i quoted an email which funnily enough was sent around the date of the original complaint.

So basically he has come on here and lied.

Now youll watch him get into lots of trouble.

Wow this thread is very heated!
The things these people are saying are pretty full on. It almost looks like the Position me company is trading insolvently.
I am glad I read this before wasting any time contacting them for a website.

Lol this thread is just golden.

Just trolling ya james.

Your intelligence can be compared to a dumb and poorly trained dog.

Youre an immature debt laden idiot whose business career is ruined.

Hahaha - You really think James would stoop to calling you names?

Nah wait even better. How bout you apologise and i wont f*** you over completely?

You apologise to gabriel.and craig for defaming them as well as to mike.

Its so awkward when i actually know for 100 percent certain james is 100 percent behind these comments.

Mind giving us some evidence that Craig or Gabrel is behind this account?

Or shall i post more evidence of your wrongdoings for all to see here?

Nah ill just send it to the relavant authorities instead LOL.

That's not so nice james.

I think you should apologise and see someone for anger management.

i have been a supplier to POM working with James.
i have also known him outside the business environment.
he has never been anything other that honest and

Courteous indecently i have also been involved with less scrupulous and narcissistic
people in my business life and chat pages like this have been their undoing.
the future will tell.
James i wish you well

JC

James its called 'ky jelly' it might relieve the pain youre going through right now.

Lol

Waiting for the "oh f#ck" moment.

Thats not it folks! Does this suggest james has lied to a court?

"See attached. Judge will be reading this tomorrow. Plenty more up our sleeve but this is sufficient for tomorrow's hearing.

P.S. An affidavit is 'sworn evidence'. Just had to put my hand on the bible and say "...so help me god"."

I really wouldnt wana be james mawhinney right now...

Cause you got egg on your face right now bro.

Bzzzzzzzzt james youre busted mate. Idk why the f*** you choose to do this ###, obviously you have a severe lack of brain cells mate!

By the way Mike [censored] is obviously a [censored]bag named Craig Lawrence who is a puppet for Gabriel Ehrenfeld. Gabriel has given Craig a so called "promotion" which created a gapeing hole in his a$$ for which Gabriel can now stick his hand up there and control Craigs actions. Named and shamed Craig.

Hi, I was a large long term customer of PMO and am deeply disappointed with the news that PMO is no longer operating. I have known James for more than 10 years and have witnessed personally nothing but dedication, hard work and commitment towards his clients and employees. I am enraged by the impact that this man Gabriel has made on my business and current/revenue. It is now news amongst my marketing colleagues that Gabriel's inappropriate dealings have affected hundreds if not more innocent business owners and employees livelihood and we are sure that justice will be served. I am sure James Mawhinney will rise above this and continue his professionalism in his future endevours.

It seems that someone is really trolling here. I can understand posting your valid and legitimate complaints. Once. But to repeat over and over again sounds a little scary :-(

James thinks he is anonymous doing this.

Funny when he has done this to show to his clients in a sad attempt to win clients to his own business.

Would you appreciate doing business with a honest and ethical businessman or a liar?

Gabriel Ehrenfeld bought the company I work for. We were promised everything but given nothing. Wages haven't been paid since February and suppliers haven't been paid all year. Adtraction is now in liquidation thanks totally to Gabriel Ehrenfeld. Is he a crook or a delusional? Or both?

HELLO JAMES. HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH.

Youre a funny guy ;) ;)

This sites server isnt secure by the way.

A little bit of truth and a massive amount of lies is all i see here.

This is deliberately trying to cause trouble, anonymously.

I was an employee at PMO until recently, and they are a business in trouble. Without a doube.

I worked with James as he was growing the company. It was common knowledge around the company that James was working with Gabriel Ehrenfeld, and that James was to run & grow the business while Gabriel sought & won the financing to cover the massive growth we were planning for and already experiencing. We were all working hard, but to a plan and we all had out part to play.

It's a shame Gabriel Ehrenfeld didn't bother to do his part. At a staff meeting last week, Gabriel was openly challenged by a staff member to explain why he'd been unsuccessful in bringing capital into the company. To paraphrase his response, invest ment works this way: you let everyone else grow the company until the point where investors are coming to you to invest, and then you let them. Does Gabriel think the staff are stupid! That has to be the laziest, most condescending, entitled attitude I ever heard - and it's a complete lie. That's not how it works. Unless you're a lazy parasite.

But worse, his response tells me that Gabriel never went out and sold the investment. He didn't do his job. There will be no investment money coming in to save the business.

Before meeting Gabriel Ehrenfeld last week, I was concerned for PMOs future. Now I've met him, I'm convinced that PMO has no future.

Gabriel Ehrenfeld has no plan that he shared to move the company forward, and no reassuring words about the future. The clients are leaving in droves, and new clients are not sighning up. Multiple services have been going down over the last couple of weeks due to unpaid bills, resignations are coming in daily, and commissions, expenses, and super are paid sporadically or not-at=all. Personally, I've not been paid for leave-owed or commissions in my final paycheck.

Any business with their services with PMO, or any RMA brand, would be well advised to get out of there. Fast.

As a former employee here is an insight into some of what has been going on and it’s not pretty!
Gabriel Ehrenfeld’s response to ReelTime Media’s state of affairs is to suggest that the problems they are facing are due to the “poor performance” (in his own words) and actions of James Mawhinney. This is a load of c*** and the majority (those that haven’t been brain washed by Gabriel Ehrenfeld) know that James has and had nothing to do with the mess that is now Reeltime Media Limited.
It’s disturbing to see and hear that Gabriel Ehrenfeld is not giving an honest picture to Reeltime Media vendors and clients and that vendors and clients have little knowledge of the serious situation.
Key staff have left (including myself) and are continuing to leave due to fear that wages won’t get paid (some haven’t been paid super), insufficient resources to deliver services and advertising bills for Google not being paid causing clients advertisements not being active. It is evident that the business is a sinking ship and running insolvent!
Gabriel Ehrenfeld lacks the skills to function as an effective leader, be it maintaining happy staff, managing vendors, or ensuring financial probity. Without a change at the top (Gabriel Ehrenfeld) being removed as Director of Reeltime Media I feel certain the business will be non-existent in a months’ time.
I just want to state for the record that James Mawhinney would have to be everything Gabriel Ehrenfeld is NOT. James is one of the most insightful, visionary and hardworking people I have ever worked with. He is an effective communication, transparent and he values and has empathy for his employees. I was very lucky to have worked for James and hope to one day have the opportunity to work with him again. I wish James all the very best in his future endeavors.

Symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
“In order for a person to be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) they must meet five or more of the following symptoms” Luckily for Gabriel and unluckily for every stake holder in any transaction he touches or puts his distinct set of talents too, he has each and every one of the following in truck loads.
• Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
• Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
• Believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
• Requires excessive admiration
• Has a very strong sense of entitlement, e.g., unreasonable expectations of especially favourable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
• Is exploitative of others, e.g., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
• Lacks empathy, e.g., is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
• Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
• Regularly shows arrogant, haughty behaviours or attitudes

My challenge to the investment community at large is that if you have had the pleasure of dealing with him directly or indirectly in any transaction is too post any positive outcome that transpired other than him personally filling his pockets at the direct expense of each and every stakeholder e.g. Creditors, Employees, shareholders, Vendors, etc. I look forward to the many positive posts that will be displayed over the coming weeks, please forgive me at least for a while if I don’t hold my breath in anticipation.

I'm so sorry to hear about your online campaign and that it is effecting your business. Unfortunately the group of companies has been falling to pieces since James left and Gabriel Ehrenfeld seems to be completely dilusional about it.. either that or he plain and simple does not care about the staff, shareholders and clients/businesses he is effecting. I am a former employee of RMA (Reeltime Media Ltd) and my superannuation still hasn't been paid and will be lodging a formal complaint with the ATO, you should do the same.. Gabriel is completely aware of the companies financial issues yet he still continues to ignore the fact, ruining a company with huge potential. Not only has the staff super not been paid many suppliers have not received payment including Google which is the reason why so many client campaigns have gone offline. If I was a client I would cancel all services with PositionMEonline before they take more money for services not being delivered. I was lucky enough to score a job straight away but I feel sorry for all the staff still having to deal with all the unhappy clients and not being able to provide any more information about the company as they are also completely in the dark about the future of the business..

i am also a former employee of positionmeonine and reeltime media and am sorry to hear of your terrible experience recently.

over the years james mawhinney built up a reputable name for positonmeonline and was always highly regarded by his clients and staff. he worked generally till midnight making sure that customer service was always front of mind, staff were looked after, and that he met his growth targets.

to see 10 years all go down the drain because of one man is very sad to see... gabriel ehrenfeld obviously has no interest in the longevity of the business, doesnt seem to care about all the people that this has affected... clients campaigns are being turned off, staff arent being paid on time, i think most of the staff have already resigned.

it only took 1 month of james mawhinney's departure for the whole group of companies to fall apart. its a shame to see something that all the staff were once proud to be a part of being destroyed like this.

I'm a former employee of Position Me Online (PMO).
The main reason I worked for Position Me Online was because of James Mawhinney. He is one of the best people I have ever worked with and made coming to work enjoyable and he always did things ethically.

Gabriel Ehrenfeld is the creepiest person I've ever met, shaking his hand was like shaking a wet fish.
I am so angry and upset that he fired James out of his own company and didn't pay him a cent for it. How can people do this?
It's just like what happened to Steve Jobs at Apple Computers except James got nothing for his company that he has built for the last 13 years.

Gabriel Ehrenfeld seemed to be so deluded that PMO would continue running as per usual without their captain- James and without fuel. I am one of the many staff who couldn't stay at PMO out of moral obligation. Many have followed in my footsteps to look for work elsewhere.

Gabriel Ehrenfeld has asked the staff to start direct debiting the PMO clients from another payment company which in my opinion is illegal if done without the customers authorisation.

I have never felt so strongly about wrong doing before and am happy to chat with anyone that needs help. I don't like how one man can ruin the lives of so many people, I could not stay at the company and watch thousands of business's be affected by the landslide of PMO by one greedy man. I hope this is all over for Gabriel before any further damage gets done. It's a sad sad situation :(

P.S. don't bother trying to contact Gabriel. All the staff have sent him emails over the last few weeks and he's gotten back to nobody. He clearly doesn't have any interest in the company continuing.

I was an employee at PMO until recently, and they are a business in trouble. Without a doubt.

It was common knowledge around the company that James was working with Gabriel Ehrenfeld, and that James was to run & grow the business while Gabriel sought & won the financing to cover the massive growth we were planning for and already experiencing.

At a staff meeting last week, Gabriel was openly challenged by a staff member to explain why he'd been unsuccessful in bringing capital into the company. To paraphrase his response, investment works this way: you grow the company until the point that investors come to you offering to invest, then you let them. To which I respond, are you insane!?! That is, hands-down, the laziest, most condescending, entitled attitude I ever heard - and it's a lie. That's not how it works. Unless you're a lazy parasite.

But worse, his response tells met that Gabriel never went out and sold the investment. He didn't do his job. There will be no investment money coming in to save the business.
