the social media people net66 review: scam 850

Sad to see Net66 digging itself a bigger hole and having to spend even more money on attempting to make itself look bigger.

In the last three days the Net66 / The Social Media People Facebook Profiles have gone from 153 up to 2000+ now they have a facebook fan page with 2000 people and with no user interaction.

Build a following through helping and providing a quality service, not through spending £9.99 on 100 Facebook likes. 80% of the new 'likes' on their Facebook page are from the Middle East.

Perhaps we'll see a new office in India soon.

have been in court over the last two months fighting net66 and succesfully won.
there are four web guys and tom, neil, dave, stacey, grace and a room full of sales people that only sell seo and facebook. net66 has been given a large fine and ordered to pay compensation to ourselves.

TSMP / Net 66 - Still On Your Case - Tom McVey - Grace McVey - Katrina - Give Me Info Or I Will Take It - Clive_Wilmot - HelloNet66 - camilla4785 - Stand Up Citizen - Serial-Blogger - Stephen Jackson - heliotropious etc. etc. and now ' P*ssed of at underhand tactics'

More aliase! All used to try and conceal the true identity of TSMP / Net 66 in an attempt to use their age old tactic of 'smoking mirrors' to muddy the waters. All in the hope that people will be blinkered and unable to establish what other disgruntled and scammed individuals think of the TSMP / Net 66 consortium.

Sadly for them, Tom McVey's ego is such that he genuinely believes everybody else are stupid! Umh that really works. lol.

Ramelle hasn't done his/her homework.
Tom Faulkner is already acknowledged by Net66 - the very company under fire - to be a dissatisfied customer, and not a competitor (a driving instructor?! So there can be no doubt that Ramelle got his facts wrong.
IF Ramelle has any genuine interest in the appalling business practices of Net66 he/she might care to weigh the evidence. He/she may not like what I write - that's his/her privelage - but the truth revealed by the genuine, but highly flawed documentation of Net66 is there for all top see.

Isn't Ramelle at all concerned about Net66 telling premeditated lies to readers and customers?
They are there on this forum, and in the documents, and in the recordings.
EVEN IF competitors were commenting here, it doesn't change the facts that Tom McVey, Neil McVey and Grace McVey run a dishonest enterprise..

It is obvious that Tom Faulkner and Blinky Brian are competitors.

I HAVE RECENTLY RECEIVED A CALL FROM TOM FAULKNER ABOUT MY DEALINGS WITH NET66. THIS COMPANY OWNS SOCIAL MEDIA APPARENTLY. HE HAS CALLED AND TRIED TO PUT ME OFF USING THEM AND SENT ME AN EMAIL ASWELL.

I TOLD HIM WHERE TO GO.

I HAVE USED THIS COMPANY OVER 2 YEARS AND FIND THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOUR ###. YES TOM ###.
IF YOU HAD REALLY BEEN SCAMMED TRADING STANDARDS WOULD HELP. AS FAR AS I CAN SEE THE COMPLAINTS MADE TO THE ADVERTS AUTHORITY HAVE ALL GONE AGAINST YOU.

I THINK YOUR ARROGANT ATTITUDE IS PATHETIC. IF YOU HAD AN OPINION WORTH LISTENING TO THEN YOU WOULD NOT LIVE IN A TINY COUNCIL AND WORK ALONE. AND LIVE ALONE AS EVERYONE ELSE THINKS YOUR PATHETIC ASWELL.

I AM SO ANNOYED I HAVE HAD THIS ARROGANT MAN WASTE MY TIME TAKING IT UPON HIMSELF TO DO A FICTITIOUS INVESTIGATION AND SPREAD RUMOURS ABOUT A COMPANY WHO I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE CARE ABOUT ME.

THE WORLD NEEDS TO RID OF THIS MOANING COMPLAINING CULTURE.

I AM GOING TO WASTE SOME TIME IN RETURN AND HOPE EVERYONE READING THIS DOES ASWELL

HAVE A LOOK:

I MYSELF WILL BE COMPLAINING TO THE DSA ABOUT THE TYPE OF PEOPLE THEY ARE APPROVING AS I THOUGHT THIS WAS A CALL EVEN MORE INFURIATING THAN A SALES CALL.

PLEASE PM IF YOU HAVE HAD THE SAME CALL AND ARE ANNOYED. IM NOT SAYING NET66 ARE AMAZING. THERE WORK IS DECENT BUT THEY HAVE NEVER SCAMMED ME AND WHEN I COULDN'T AFFORD A PAYMENT ONE MONTH THEY LET ME OFF. I DID THE SAME WITH SKY AND THEY DID NOT LET ME OFF! THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SCAM AND A COMPANY WITH AN UNHAPPY CUSTOMER!

I HAVE STREET VIEWED 87 Wickhurst Road, Portslade, BN41 2TE ON GOOGLE

I CAN NOW UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ARE ANGRY MR.FAULKNER - A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE FAILED IN LIFE. THEY ALL DO NOT GO AROUND TRYING TO RUIN OTHERS.

There is another company of the same name, but they came much later after me, around six months, although they registered their domain three months after. We also provide different services, they are content writers, I'm a online reputation management and search engine optimisation consultant.

I'm going to give up on this thread, with Tom McVey and his accounts talking to himself all day the thread is beginning to become out-dated and full of McVey speaking to himself with his many accounts.

I notice Kat has had a promotion Public Relations Chief Executive. It's a shame that there is no such department. I've found on Gumtree that The Social Media People and Net66 have been advertising for sales people. As I lived in Manchester I know alot of people from East and South Manchester and some of North too. I've been able to place my friends in their offices at interviews to see exactly who works there. Needless to say of course Kat doesn't exists and much of the office is the same from what I've been told.

I also don't employ sales reps, I only have the one sales consultant for your information and he is based in France.

Oh well, who cares! I can't be bothered typing on this forum no more. The facts as said above, nothing is coming of this, just repeated content, people like Tom F presenting the facts through print screens and Tom McVey with his accounts defending himself. The fact that he uses sales consultants and ensures they're signed up with in a 12 minute conversation means that he's got the credit card details before any company can find out more information about them.

There is a GENUINE company Called BLINK SEO LTD
WE NEED TO MAKE IT CLEAR THIS INDIVIDUAL HAS NO ASSOCIATION TO THEM AT ALL. HE HAS COPIED THEIR COMPANY NAME AND AS FAR AS WE CAN SEE THEY PROVIDE A GOOD SERVICE WITH SOME DECENT RESULTS.

It's been asked before by another company. We did register our domain three months before they did. We target Croydon SEO Services as only a lead generation means. We can again be found for 'London SEO Services' and yes soon 'Manchester SEO Services' all part of our lead generation program.

Also,

Brian Martin, could you confirm why your employment was terminated from us as we have all the legal documents and 7 witness as to why. We also have cctv of you turning back up to one of our premises in an attempt to be violent towards staff.
Is this what you class as a "business" there is no record of you at companies house.
I have never seen an SEO company who claims to be "fast growing and hughly successful" actually advertise on gumtree: http://www.gumtree.com/p/jobs/seo-sales-consultant--croydon/90007847
Yet on http://myonepage.com/BlinkBrian you describe yourself as "Managing Director, Blink-Group"
Managing Director Of what Group? A group of Who You?
Anyone else confused. Me Too.

I feel any company going out of it's way to source bed reviews of companies in the same industry and then try to denigrate their business with negative comments is a not a person to be listened to. It show a lack of character and seen as though this individual was relinquished of his employment status by us if he did want to get back at us he could do it by becoming a real business and genuinely competing.

Google "SEO in Manchester" Brian you will see almost 20, 000, 000 companys fighting for top spot. Not little towns like croydon. On you running solo blog you accused us of targeting "non-competitive" keywords.
"SEO services croydon" gets a full total of 0 searches a month. Thats 0. Incidently exactly the same as your "company" and your opinion is worth.

There is a GENUINE company Called BLINK SEO LTD
WE NEED TO MAKE IT CLEAR THIS INDIVIDUAL HAS NO ASSOCIATION TO THEM AT ALL. HE HAS COPIED THEIR COMPANY NAME AND AS FAR AS WE CAN SEE THEY PROVIDE A GOOD SERVICE WITH SOME DECENT RESULTS.

Afternoon All,

We would like to take this opportunity to invite any customers, or potential customers to contact us and share any apprehensions. We understand weather you believe this man's lies or not there may be a few doubts. As a well respected organisation we have 1, 000's of genuine reviews from genuine clients.

For the record Mr. Tom Faulkner, after several attempts to reason with you and after a tirade of abuse and insults we find your latest attempt of actually contacting our clients is a new low for you. Needless to say you have been told where to go by at least 20 in the past months as we are getting reports from them venting their frustrations. They intend to form a group and using the internet they can warm people over your malicious, unprofessional and frankly, despicable actions.

We have never made any attempt to denigrate your "business" despite the allegations about you online we have have shown a degree of passion and tolerance. Even when you have spoke of family members of the company directors including insinuated a young girl was void of all decency and a man who had suffered a tragic loss was to be mocked due to a loss of limbs. If you think you have a "credible campaign" you should take a step back. Other members have confirmed you have asked them if you have taken it too far and categorically the answer is yes.
If you did ever have any human decency you have certainly left it behind.

Please take a look Here:
nhs.uk/conditions/Obsessive-compulsive-disorder/Pages/Introduction.aspx
Maybe there is still some hope for you.

With regard to the accusations of "under investigation". This is laughable. It is no secret Tom Faulkner is a regular poster, administrator and general puppet of the owner of badbiz.co.uk. Which SURPRISE SURPRISE! has been shut down indefinitely for lying and making libellous and defamatory statements about business's.

It is indeed true the ASA and trading standards have been in contact with us with regard to Tom Faulkner's accusations.
The only thing is, there was nothing to investigate. I can confirm we have had 20+ complaints all from the same source to the ASA and as yet we have had no sanctions at all. Nor have their being any "investigations" we have had requests from them in relation to Mr.Faulkners complaints. That's all.

I quote the ASA word for word when they speak about our organisation. Not put a spin on a fact not give a mis-leading idea about the complaint procedure. But QUOTE THEM:
There was an advert made which stated: "AVOID this company is a scam "

After a GENUINE COMPLAINT THE ASA TOOK ACTION. YES THE ASA TOOK ACTION IN THE SOCIAL MEDIA PEOPLE FAVOUR - THEY ARE INTERESTED IN THE TRUTH NOT OPINIONS. They said the following:

the ad was alleging that the Social Media People was a company running a scam and because we had not seen evidence to support that claim, we considered that that implication was disparaging to the complainant’s company.

You have to admit. after almost 50 pages and 379 negative, pre-meditated accusations and insinuations the ASA have only ever ruled in the favour of the TSMP. Never against them.

The recent screen shots upload by Mr.Faulkner show of all his complaints they are:
"Without the need for formal investigation" I think that speaks for itself.

We invite, and welcome people to investigate us. Or request more information or genuine reviews. As you and the Advertising Standards Authority have already seen we have many happy customers.

What does scam mean? Rip Off? Fraud? No care for the customer?
Do scammer's not scam everyone?

Why can a company have so many customers if it is a "scam" its all or nothing surely?!?!

Anyway we are regretful that we have had to be so blunt about about somebody as everybody is entitled to an opinion. But to mock our receptions who is 19 and to laugh at a member of staff for loss of a limbs shows the level of respect this man has for anyone who opposes his opinion.

We have simply stated facts in the hope that people ### FACTS not twisted words and opinions etc etc.
But actual Facts.

The Facts Are:
Net66/TSMP have thousands of satisfied customers.
Net66/TSMP have been under an attack from a "man on a mission" for 10months
Net66/TSMP have been concluded by the ASA as having no evidence of scamming anyone EVER!
Net66/TSMP have provided genuine client information to the authorities to prove its ethical methods of trading and high levels of customer service.
Net66/TSMP have spoken to Trading Standards after a complaint mad by Tom Faulkner and have received tips and advice on how to "refute claims if they are falsely made" (still waiting for a screen shot of that "investigation")
Net66/TSMP have proved beyond reasonable doubt they are reputable.
Tom Faulkner refuses to acknowledge the ruling and advice of trading bodies he has notified.
Tom Faulkner genuinely believes that he is right and we do "scam" people despite reporting us to every single authority and governing body you could imagine
Tom Faulkner needs to face facts and admit he is wrong about us a company
Tom Faulkner should apologise to the man he has laughed at who tragically lost fingers many years ago and insinuated he may have lost them due to dishonesty. (A test of a man's pride Vs decency)
Tom Faulkner should accept in all the time he has made repeated accusations and claims he is the only one left reiterating his own points, none of the relevant governing bodies or authorities have concurred with him and the reason that is that Net66/TSMP does NOT scam people. Yes having thousands of clients there has been a handful who were aggrieved, and dis-satisfied (generally receive a refund or a special offer) customers. But as as a large company with thousands of clients it has an interest in providing a good service. Even if not every single employee all of the time makes the right decision the companies objective is to do long term business with a good service at a fair price.

Again, it is with regret that it has come to this stage but we have tried every avenue to clear our name with Mr.Faulkner and it is with no other option that we have to be frank, blunt and as defensive as we have.

Although weather you fully believe neither ourselves, nor Mr.Faulkner you have to admit the ASA who's job it is to police advertising have only Made 2 adjudications on our company. Both in our favour due to lies and insinuations that were not true. What cant speak cant lie as they say.

Public Relations Chief Executive
Net66 Web Services Ltd

Good work Tom. We will forward that to our my3cents corporate site, and spread the word.

Oh sorry, I didn't see all the posts.

Yes, Croydon-SEO-Services is a little crap wordpres blog as it was merely a lead generation program. But now you've mentioned it. I'll clean it up over night just for you Mr McVey.

If you type in anything SEO and Croydon related the domain name which I own croydon-seo-services.co.uk comes up.

Also, if you type in London SEO Services my domain comes up the b-s.co.uk and before I changed my website over which I done knowingly that I'd lose some ranks, I was on page one for around 15 keywords now only 12.

Page Rank shouldnt be measured upon how good ones SEO is and it's something I don't really take interest in myself. However I know Net66 do when they e-mail customers so it's laughable that they'd screw up their whole campaign.

I've had my domain runningsolo.co.uk for five years and it's always remained as PR1 I just don't work hard enough to raise it because I don't need to. I know how many readers come here and I also know that you've come on to my website today and that Dave McVey comes on on a regular occasion through the keyword Dave McVey Net66 perhaps because he wants to pay me to write off his name from the post. Perhaps because he wants to leave Net66.

Also - I'm a really crap SEO Consultant Tom McVey that when I noticed manchester-seo-services.co.uk was available to buy, I took it upon myself ot register the domain. Meaning soon I'll be out ranking you for Manchester SEO Services and organically producing more leads.

My wordpress designs are lazy because they're only there for lead generation. If people want to find out more about my service use this link.. http://bseo.co/deisg it's my main site. Oh and this is another reason I'm such a ### SEO.

I use bseo.co because it's my metric tracking short url. Somethign that Net66 don't have they use bit.ly. I use my own white-label service - again because i'm a ### SEO.

Sorry this was rushed and messy but I am rather busy tonight.

To Faulkner:

Shut your pie hole. How can it be libel when many of the statements may well be ENTIRELY true?

Your website is a damn scam. It is this site's and many others such as [redacted]'s duty, to catalog themselves at the top of the search engines and report that fact. I see nothing that leads me to another conclusion. You have nothing to prove libel, your site SOCIAL MEDIA PEOPLE is a scam and should be avoided!

then stay away from this topic and deal with your problem.

My interests are in Stephen BadBiz Jones anyone on here who has been approached by himself, please make contact.
There may be rewards issued accordingly.

More to announce very shortly.

I certainly am not.

However, by only having that to say proves you guilty of all the accusations. I have in no way defended any company and I find it very un witting that your presumptuous accusation is the greatest defence at your disposal.

Get a life and stop making claims about business' online. If you are good at what you do as you claim then there is no point in constantly trying to denigrate other business'. Perhaps some information may surface about yourself and you can see the effects of the stigma attached to bad press. Although there seems to be nothing, with your trading practices, out spoken and ignorant opinion and distinct lack of ability my guess is that if you had any customers at all they would be posting about you left right and centre.

Your image is not exactly professional to say the least. Neither is this thread.

Still on your case, is also Tom McVey confirmed by the administration of the site. I need not to explain myself.

LOL

what a dick you are blink Brian. Your a kid. I think gmioiwti is a rather rude individual. That said his points carry significant reason for consideration. If you are an SEO expert why can your site no be found.

www.blink-seo (DOT) (CO) (DOT) (UK) Is terrible.

Google "seo in london" or even "seo in croydon"

Are you not an expert? If so why do you not rank for what you should do.
You are a fraud of the first order.

I find it no coincidence that the primary people who are quick to insult on this thread are the ones with skeletons in their closet. Brian, I can not find any registered company for blink hosting. Please can you let me know your Reg No. and also you VAT no. so I can investigate accordingly. If I am wrong and you can do your job you just haven't then I shall eat my words. However. It doesn't look good for an SEO expert with no search engine presence does it.

In fact if you search "blinkseo" you are not even Number. 1?

What are you hiding Brian. Are you willing to prove you have an opinion worth listening to, or have you just come here to have a dig at a company who sacked you by the looks of things.

Tom McVey ((Aka) 'Give Me Info Or I Will Take It")

I'm unsure if you read your Tom Johnson facebook profile account. I sent you a message last night. Read it and sort your web development team out!

Oh sorry, I haven't explained my above point. Page rank and site-links have nothing to do with each other. Site-Links is based upon top landing pages.

Page rank on the other hand has been lost due to the pages no longer existing.

This appears to be one of the most dodgy internet companies I have ever laid eyes on. A quick search returned more than forty complaints, not a good sign.

The company indicated will not even provide written proof of their services rendered. Unlike say, Intuit, this company does not have any backlog documentation to actually support their assertions. The screenshot series released has been troubling. I advise that you do NOT get involved with Social People Net unless you are fully aware of the risks associated.

What makes me laugh is that Net66 have proven that they have no idea about Web Development nor Search Engine Optimisation.

It's a little hard to explain but they've changed alot of their pages to accommodate a Wordpress platform to automate their content. By doing this, they've lost the extensions to their webpages such as .php .html ect. It's because of this that they've now lost a feature called site-links on Google. They've lost their page-rank.

As well as this, because of my purchase last night manchester-seo-services.co.uk and my actual skill and knowledge of search engine optimisation. I'm also going to ensure I out rank them so they can't generate any natural leads.

For a company who are apparently specialists in search engine optimisation and web development they can't even provide themselves with a quality service nevermind a third party.

Perhaps lessons that I've taught them in this message, they may well accommodate with their other company social media people website. They can't even link to each other properly and the new web layout is absolutely aweful with many features still not working.

Tom McVey, do a better job please.

The Social Media People – Invoice at the centre of an argument.

The attached VAT Invoice has been published before, but recently gained new and greater significance when it became the centre of a puzzle/dispute between TSMP, me and Manchester Trading Standards (TS).
The NEW ‘dispute’ centres on the fact that when TSMP and I both provided copies of VAT Invoices to TS to support our cases, the documents differed: which meant that one party was not telling the truth.
The version supplied by TSMP included a ‘link’ to its Terms and Conditions, and the entry ‘Local Clicks £99.00’
As you can see, my version does not include those details.
I was able to offer TS access to my email server where the original email and attachment still reside (secure from tampering) to satisfy TS that I hadn’t altered mine.

Previously the VAT Invoice had been significant because TSMP insisted it included a link to T&Cs, even going so far as to make that claim on its ‘Final Demand’ - despite being repeatedly told there was no T&Cs link. For good measure, TSMP also included a lie about WHEN I received it.

So on its 'Final Demand’ TSMP lied to me. (On that topic, and several others too!)
And in the document it provided to Trading Standards, TSMP lied to them.

No honesty. No integrity. No ethics. No good business practices.
Net66 and The Social Media People - businesses reflecting the appalling ethics, morals and practices of the family which owns them.

Still On Your Case - Tom McVey - Katrina - Give Me Info Or I Will Take It - Clive_Wilmot - HelloNet66 - camilla4785 - Stand Up Citizen - Serial-Blogger - Stephen Jackson - heliotropious - To name a few of The Social media people / Net 66 incarnations on this site:

Firstly: '...I have personally spoke to Peter Duffin at Manchester trading standards and he told me...'
This is mere hearsay and consequently of no value here or elsewhere.

Secondly: '...I have checked out Net66 Web Services Ltd Myself and they publish company details and terms on their site...''
Nobody disputes that you, TSMP Still On Your Case - Tom McVey - Katrina - Give Me Info Or I Will Take It - Clive_Wilmot - HelloNet66 - camilla4785 - Stand Up Citizen - Serial-Blogger - Stephen Jackson - heliotropious etc have T&Cs. However, try reading them as you could run a train through them and they are STILL not legally binding as they are dramatically flawed!

Incidentally 'Still On Your Case' you present yourself as an ambassador of TSMP, your written skills and your grammar are far superior to that of your master; as Tom McVey although 'colourful' when being threatening, is basically an illiterate oaf whose literacy and overall comprehension like his maths are that of a 13 year old.

To quote: '...Fantasy people telling fantasy stories...' As a fantasy person, Still On Your Case, you place yourself in the same genre as Tom McVey - Katrina - Give Me Info Or I Will Take It - Clive_Wilmot - HelloNet66 - camilla4785 - Stand Up Citizen - Serial-Blogger - Stephen Jackson - heliotropious! and you expose yourself by self-admittal of the knowledge of the investigation by Trading Standards on yourselves by their officer Peter Duffin!

TSMP / Net 66 or the other trading names that you use, You are still a Scam, Dishonest, Deceitful, Unprofessional, Unethical and gangster wannabees who are best described as pikys' who have a house.

Avoid This Scam - Avoid This Scam - Avoid This Scam - Avoid This Scam - Avoid This Scam - Avoid This Scam - Avoid This Scam

The issue on this thread is the appalling business practices of Net66, The Social Media People.

Despite TSMP’s attempts to smokescreen out criticism with irrelevant rants, the evidence of Net66 and The Social Media People’s litany of misdeeds stands as a testament to its absence of ethics and integrity.
* The evidence in recordings (which it has acknowledged as genuine) proves it told premeditated lies to threaten & attempt to silence criticism.

* The evidence of its documentation (which it produced itself) shows it has lied to banks, as well as customers.

* The evidence of its own words on this forum proves it is willing to lie to anyone and everyone in attempts to escape the truth. (‘Never investigated’ – says TSMP; but ASA publication and Trading Standards investigation prove, yet again, that TSMP lies. And by ‘quoting’ comments of Trading Standards it further confirms the truth that an investigation is underway.)

* The evidence of broken promises on this forum proves it is not to be trusted. (TSMP promised to answer questions then skulked silently away.)

* Even in launching a revamped website – surely the ‘shop-window’ of a website design and development company – it makes errors and omissions, and parts are non-functioning. It even gets the names of companies whose ‘testimonials’ it uses WRONG: how flattering to a client company whose name its supplier can’t be bothered to get right!

* And now, when changing its Registered Office Address it provides Companies House with inaccurate details.

Fantasy people telling fantasy stories – whilst greedily banking the hard earned money of its victims – until victims win it back via their banks.
TSMP’s smokescreens, fantasies and insults won’t make the facts of its misdeeds go away.

Hey BadBiz!

I notice you have the effrontery to comment on this thread yet still have no comment on your own thread:

www.badbiz.co.uk — www.badbiz.co.uk

Steve BadBiz Jones is most of the people on this thread after a company told him where to stick his ego. He has brainwashed Tom Faulkner who is now a puppet of BadBiz. Recently steve you have had all your websites suspended whilst trading standards look into you. You are attempting to drag as many people down with you and it appears Tom Faulkner is top of you list LOL! Oh well looking at thats mans obbsession with a company (not a healthy nor a reasonable trait for any human) he is probably well suited to fall with you. I have personally spoke to Peter Duffin at Manchester trading standards and he told me of Tom Faulkners obsessive nature and how they laugh at him at their offices. As for the ASA they will not comment but why have they took down an advert calling these people a scam if they really are one?

It shows the vindictive ways of BadBiz and we are glad he has crawled back under the stone he came from - what a loser he really is. Have a look at what he has written about his own daughter:



If you have a look at the BadBiz thread you can see that Phillip Moss is his son & Kathryn is his sister. He made these lies up about his own daughter imagine the scummy lies he has posted on this thread. Especially the way he has manipulated Tom Faulkner to do his dirty work for him. I have checked out Net66 Web Services Ltd Myself and they publish company details and terms on their site and there are many people who have cancelled their agreement. In my 25 years experience in business if a company scams people they do just that - Not pick and choose.

Just goes to show the vindictive nature and influence Steve BadBiz Jones has on people with his nasty mind games

TICK TOCK TICK TOCK TICK TOCK TICK TOCK TICK TOCK STEVE - WERE ALL COMING FOR YOU.

Sorry if anyone wanted to have a moan about the terms they agreed to without checking like the rest of the complaints on this site but you all must understand most of this thread is Steve Jones - More on him to follow on his own thread!

Aggrieved customers should complain - AND take appropriate action to protect themselves.
'The Marketing Giant' tells a familiar story. Let’s hope his/her money is returned as promised.

1. On the matter of whether or not the cancellation is accepted there is a key point which ‘The Marketing Giant’ might have in his/her favour. I’ll discuss that in private through ‘Personal Messages’ here on the forum, or email.
2. ‘The Marketing Giant’s’ experience echoes several elements of my own (& of others). To reclaim the 1st month’s charges (or others) it is worth considering a ‘chargeback’ claim through the banking system. Several people I have worked with have been successful.
3. To any other recent ‘victims’ here are some points to consider:
* Immediately cancel/lose your credit/debit card and get a replacement. (Usually within 3 or4 days. A replacement card on the same account has different ‘security’ details). Don’t wait till you’ve sent cancellation. This action should isolate your bank account from unapproved withdrawals.

* IF, after calm consideration, you subsequently decide to make a payment it is easy enough to arrange – under your own control: and not just because TSMP believes it is entitled to take your money. If TSMP has a legitimate reason to require further payments, ask it to explain and submit a proforma invoice. (Take expert (or legal) advice if you need to.)

* Depending on the situation consider making a ‘chargeback’ claim through your debit/credit card if you believe the service was not provided and/or TSMP fails to provide independently verifiable proof.
Recent successful claims demonstrate that banks agree with some customers’ claims.

This is a most unsatisfactory state of affairs.

Yet another 'satisfied' customer!

I was approached by these scammers last month and during a moment of weakness agreed to become a national client...ha ha, I paid £299 + vat and surprise surprise had no clicks at all, I was told on Friday 21 October that my cancellation notice had to be in their office by Sunday 23rd or I would have to pay another month, so i immediately typed up a cancellation letter and went to the post office to request next day delivery. Because it was a weekend I had to pay £9.24 to guarantee next day delivery...but you've guessed it, they still took my £299.00+ vat. I am absolutely livid with this bunch of charlotans they are just crooks. they do not deliver on any of their promises they do not supply any anylitics so you dont enen know if the adverst were placed at all. my guess is that they weren't.
they say that they are looking into my complaint and will return my money within 72 hours if the cancellation was received by their office before the 23rd...Iwill keep you posted.
The Marketing Giant

Oh yes please!
Net66 have uploaded a new format and website. They're MySQL skills are disappointing as they've uploaded a new website they've forgotten to hide the other names they're going by and it's not just The Social Media People they are known by any more.

Leaving things on servers without password protected directories is poor practice. Reports / Print Screens coming up later.

Poor structure http://46.20.228.9/

They have a new website online. Very abstract

The Social Media People scam has been investigated by Manchester Trading Standards. The TSMP received a 'personal' visit by a Manchester Trading Standards Officer.

The Social Media People scam has been investigated by their bank for irregular business practice. The result being that after a year or so of trading TSMP are now declaring Net 66's direct association with TSMP, as previously they were using Net 66s Merchant account to process all of TSMPs card transactions which was illegal!

The Social Media People scam has been investigated by Companies House for non compliance.

Etc.Etc.

The amount of documentary evidence which proves that TSMP are not the well established organised ethical, honest, effective 'global' multi media organisation, which they would have everybody believe, is overwhelming. How can you deny that you have been investigated by such official organisations such as the ASA when they even publish their finding on the official ASA website (http://www.asa.org.uk/ASA-action/Adjudications.aspx#2) ?

One of the many incarnations of Tom McVey, for example Jonathan Barker-Smith and Stephen Jackson, should be Walter Mitty! and apt description being '...an ordinary, often ineffectual person who indulges in fantastic daydreams of personal triumphs.'

The conclusion being that TSMP / Net 66 are an Unethical, Dishonest, Amoral, Inept, Complicit Scammers!

"We have also had 3 calls this week to customer service personal account manager claiming they had found our details "online" seen as though they were not, we can only assume the Brighton accent was a co-incidence aswell"

The above comment is about the funniest thing I've read on here for a while. TomF - looks like your 'Brighton accent'
gave it away and you've been rumbled!

LOL

Good Afternoon All,

We have tried to refrain from retaliating from various provocations from contributors on here, however, we feel for anybody who reads this site they deserve to know the truth about the intentions of negative posters.

We find it no co-incidence that we received this email this morning just a couple of hours before a post on here from the same individual:

hi

http://www.asa.org.uk/ASA-action/Adjudications.aspx#2

So you haven't received 'advice' from The ASA? Yet more lies and deceit from a little back street scamming company in Manchester!

McVeys, you are ###

Nice, wouldn't you agree. Oh well, it seems Mr.Faulkner has made it clear he is obsessed and even asked a random person he didn't know to give him his opinion on weather he was caught up in it. An irrational hate of our company is only harming yourself Mr.Faulkner and we honestly feel an obligation to urge you to seek help.
Obsession can be dangerous and in your case it shows no sign of slowing down.

We have also had 3 calls this week to customer service personal account manager claiming they had found our details "online" seen as though they were not, we can only assume the Brighton accent was a co-incidence aswell.

We first heard a comment a few weeks ago about a review on there net66 website to which our customer was prepared to verify. However, looking at the level of obsessive behaviour and especially after personal pictures and images of one of our offices have appeared online, one would be inclined to remain anonymous.

WE ARE NOT UNDER INVESTIGATION! THAT IS A LIE! We were asked about a few statements on our websites.
One was employee stories and due to the obsessive nature of one or two posters they asked could they have their name removed - THIS WE HAVE ALREADY MENTIONED A LONG TIME AGO AND MADE IT CLEAR ON HERE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE!

The second was a client's review. Who said he does not care if these vultures contact him he believes there are too many "[censored] Stirrers" these days in business and as a matter of principle he would contact the ASA and inform them his opinion - THE TRUTH.
We were pre-warned to watch out for this review by Mr.Faulkner and yet it still stands after his countless insinuations that it would be gone. We believe there have been 11 ports of contact from Mr. Faulkner to the ASA yet they still stand by their original opinion of us.

What did the ASA say about the social media people again:

"We considered that the ad was alleging that the Social Media People was a company running a scam and because we had not seen evidence to support that claim, we considered that that implication was disparaging to the complainant’s company. We therefore concluded that the ad denigrated The Social Media People."

YES THE ASA ARE A GOOD SOURCE OF INFORMATION AND THEIR OPINION IS ACTUALLY WORTH LISTENING TO. BETWEEN THEM AND A SOLE TRADER WHO HAS MADE 1000+ NEGATIVE COMMENTS AND TRIED TO TWIST THE ASA'S CREDIBLE WORDS - I KNOW WHO I WOULD BELIEVE!

I Think this is a sign that this forum should now go back to posting facts or at least reasonable opinions as opposed to twisted words. You would expect that of the News Of The World and we all know what happened to them!

The Facts are: Yes, we have had clients that have been less than impressed with the results. That's advertising, we could send 1, 000, 000 people to your business and they may not buy anything. To date it has been insinuated that we are a "scam" - why in that case can we prove we HAVE done the advertising.

TomF claims we do not understand Public Relations, we beg to differ. Defending ourselves on this site is not our Public Relations objective. We have regular projects for that and meetings with some of the largest brands in the world. However, there are a few people on this site who continually insult our directors personally and mock the company. However, as the site's regular contributors have began to see, there is a difference between people wanting to out the truth and people hell bent on trying to ruin our reputation. One of them we support and encourage and we have regular contact and training sessions to ensure we can continue to provide a higher level of service. The other is basically like a jealous ex. This is the equivalent of stalking an ex and trying to ruin their every move. Sad really and to be fair, it is normally against our practice to be as frank as we have but anyone who reads back the comments can see the tirade of abuse endured by our company directors.

Please Take time to listen and understand that the ASA's opinion of us is that of a reputable company. They have ruled in our favour and have never ever asked us to remove any thing from any of our organisations websites. We have never been under investigation and the malicious intentions of some of the posters on here need treating with the blunt response they have received from us and others.

AGAIN, WE ARE ASKING ANYBODY TO CONTACT US FOR ANY MORE INFORMATION OR GENUINE CLIENT INFORMATION AND REVIEWS FROM A 12 YEAR OLD ORGANISATION THAT IS A MARKET LEADER.

Is TSMP a Scam? Unethical? Dishonest? Fraudulent? Well TSMP really has done very little to alleviate anybody's concerns with their broken promises, abusive phone calls, threats, appalling administration and happy go lucky approach to customer service, and that is not including the non existent Customer Services Director and other aliases that Tom McVey has used such as being a Solicitor and also legal agent for the company when phoning disgruntled clients to threaten them!

Have TSMP been subject of investigations from Trading Standards? Yes. Have TSMP been subject to advisory notices from the ASA? Yes. Are TSMP being investigated by their own bank? Yes. Why, you may ask, would such a reputable company be subject to a 'home visit' by Trading Standards? Umh!

Honesty? Integrity? Professionalism? These are all words which TSMP aspire to, or so they claim. I think it is fair to say that they are lacking in all areas todate.

It took Tom faulkner a lot of words to say what we all know that The Social Media Peaple are full of crap and just one big scam. But hes right.
I tried doing the personal message stuff when they tried that 'Oh let's pretend to listen'stuff before and it got me nowhere neither. Theyr'e not worth the trouble of talking to becuase they don’t care, but Im glad theyr’e getting a bit pain becuase they deserve it.

Good Afternoon All,

We are fully aware of frustration of posters at our repetition of posts. However, seen as though our integrity as an advertiser & as a business is at stake it is only fair for any neutral to hear the ruling of an advertising watchdog AKA somebody/something credible & worth listening to. NOT lies & edited evidence. If there is as much evidence & proof & bla bla bla obout us out there why is there no actual governing body, or watchdog ruling and/or investigation against us.

We post facts NOT opinions riddled with unethical comments, and personal details of employee's etc. We post rulings of credible organisations after investigation.

A smart business person will listen to authorities such as the ASA & we would not like to pass judgement as to the type of person that would beleive annoymous people who are personaly insulting our employee's and making outragous claims.

Anybody who is unsure after reading personal insults at employees of our organisation and questions against our ethics can answered by reading the ASA's conclusion:

WE HAVE RESTRICTED CHANCE TO RESPOND FROM THE FORUM ADMINISTRATORS SO TO SEE WHAT THE ASA HAS TO SAY ABOUT US SIMPLY GOOGLE " The Social Media People ASA"

NOT unverified, annonymous & personal comments from a few malicious individuals. It is plain to see there is a few people who are trying to slander our reputation and bring personal insults into the equation. This is a lower than low tactic that you would not expect from a human being with any morals. We are not going to stoop to their level as it is plain to see that the same people under various names & aliases have embaressed themselves.

Thank you for ongoing support from all of our clients, very much appreciated. We have had several questions and enquiries from clients. This is something we appreciate, and invite. Please be careful of what you might read from un-verified sources and annonymous people online.

########################################################################
BE VERY AWARE OF CRIMINALS ON HERE ASKING FOR YOU INFORMATION, TOM F HAS PROVED HE HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE LAW IN BREACHING COPYRIGHT LAW, SAME FOR BADBIZ WHO IS A CRIMINAL ON POLICE BAIL, ALSO THE SAME FOR THEIR LATEST SIDE KICK ON THEIR FORUM WHO IS A CONVICTED HACKER. WE HAVE ALWAYS PROVIDED A GOOD SERVICE AND HAVE HAD OUR REPUTATION TARNISHED BY THIS SMALL & INCOMPETENT CRIMINAL RING. WE URGE ANYBODY TO NOT DISCLOSE ANY INFORMATION TO THESE CRIMINALS AS THEY HAVE PROVED TIME AFTER TIME THEY HAVE NO REGARD FOR THE LAW.
########################################################################

The reason we are repeatedly posting the ASA's conclusion that: THERE IS NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT CLAIMS WE ARE A SCAM.

Thats The Advertsing Watchdog, not a ring of criminals!

We stand by our ethics and to call us a scam is basically calling the ASA a LIAR or Incompetent! -

We know who we'd believe!
________________________________________________________________________________
We would incourage any genuine customers to not give out personal data to any "data poachers" on this or any other site. It transpires some of the people on here who are claiming to "offer assistance" are under investigation form various organisations and we would urge people to listen to the advertising watchdogs conclusion as apposed to comments that are just defamatory.
________________________________________________________________________

Having to defend our ethics on a daily basis has now got beyond a joke. If we put a comer or full stop in the wrong place we are the victim of a tirade of abuse. If anybody who participates in these daily insults should not only be ashamed of themselves but should rethink the point they are trying to make. Why nit pick & wait for a company to make the smallest irrelevant mistake and jump on them with insults insinuating they are incompetent. We have been reported to every authority in the UK by most of you & they have all found us to comply with law.
We have worked with 200, 000 clients over the past 11+ years and we have always had fantastic feedback.

________________________________________________________________________

Also as long as people try to call us a "scam" and unethical we WILL continue to post details of the ASA regulation. Because neutral readers deserve facts not one person pretending to be 12's opinions & lies.
________________________________________________________________________

With regret we are forced to expose a few characters for their nasty tendencies, opinions & backgrounds so their wrongful claims against us can be treated with the level of belief they should - NONE AT ALL.

We may be biased, in that our organisation has been involved in business 11+ years & is now suddenly wrongfully accused of having no ethics & even "scamming". This has been a hard accusation to face as we are a family business, and our directors have taken a few insults personally and even resorted to defending their integrity themselves. Needless to say it has fell on deaf ears and accusations are constantly thrown in our direction.

We have no personal feelings either way, yes we think there is incredulous people commenting and lying on here, but on the whole we know the truth. So do our expanding clients base.

________________________________________________________________________

So, is The Social Media People a scam, are people right to group together to try to ruin the reputation of a company within a an organisation for 11+ years?

Let me provide some EVIDENCE not twisted words or opinions - EVIDENCE:

There was an add set up, the creator was never proven beyond reasonable doubt as the address & contact details did not match up and could have been set up anonymously by anyone. For this reason we will blank the web address, bout the info is readily available from the ASA:

We are available for contact For any body who is looking for answers, or is still unsure:

Tel: [protected]

Email: publicrelations@thesocialmediapeople.co.uk

We are happy to deal with enquiries, and answer any questions or queries you may have.

Now, our latest comment has been posted?

Anyway, we appreciate this "concumer" site with a history of colourful practices has decided we are now alloud to post again.
Firstly we can confirm that none of our company directors, nor employee's have posted under any alias's. What has been posted is simply what most of our clients re-itterate on a daily basis to us. Obsessive and malicious lies prove the biased opinion of the 3 persistant liars on this forum. Yes we will publicly call the 3 people who have continuinely lied, mocked disabled people and claimed to know about drug wars liars! with no shame, and a confidence in our professionalism we can totaly dis-regard the worthles opinon of these three opinions. Two of them have been sacked by our company for lack of ability, as you can tell it was the right decision.

The last thing we would like to do is to lower ourselves to this level but after all this abuse there is nothing else we can do apart from give an honest opinion about 3 people we know to be liars.

All we can do is have a look at the ASA ruling on a website set up probably by one of the posters on here after being released from our business.:
asa.org.uk/ASA-action/Adjudications/2011/7/the_social_media_people_scam, -d-, co, -d-, uk/SHP_ADJ_154984.aspx

Copy & paste the link and then pick who do you beleive is worth listening to, 3 angry people who claim they have reported us to all these authorities over almost a year yet NOTHING has been done by the authorities at all.
OR
The advertising Watchdog, set up to independently regulate advertising?

Tough one we know. But after a long campaign we have rectified issues with many customers and re-built bridges and trust and yet we still receive personal insults on a daily basis from frankly some nasty individuals by the sounds of it.
I can confirm our board of directors have instructed us not to converse with the 3 men in question.

Yet we invite any GENUINE customers or potential customers to get intouch asap:
publicrelations@thesocialmediapeople.co.uk
