It has been a very hard year behind Mr Priyesh Patel (+Lisete Martinho Coelho Patel) and his successors Mr Rajesh Rajinarath Kumar (for very short period), Mr Ricardo Rodrigues and now Mr Darren Holt of price-dropshop.co.uk.
Their websites multiply in an unnerving rate & manner from so many years ago until today:
paradiseliving.eu]Inmobiliaria Paradise Living (closed)
via-tv.co.uk (closed)
hanghold.com (closed)
partyportugal.eu (closed)
webshoppingnetwork.co.uk (unavailable)
bargaindealz.co.uk (live)
hotpicksdirect.co.uk (closed
wowdeals.co.uk (closed)
bargainzndealz.co.uk (live)
and their latest invention price-dropshop.co.uk (live). All to be said, very cleverly disguised as registered as an individual by Mr Holt, rather than registered under a company name like Paradise Living, Trident, Via-TV, Fantastic World, etc.
Needless to say that there are a number of web hosting servers and payment processing platforms advised and notified of their conning activities which had resulted, shortly after, in terminating their services to these individuals, nevertheless their counterfeiting and attempts to close them down continue by various parties including some undisclosed entity at this point, in order not to alert these individuals which direction they are coming for them and being targeted.
I can only say that by attempting to save a couple of pounds by wanting to buy what we believe to be an original product however much cheaper, the consequences are negatively grater than the pleasure, brings massive headaches, we all end up feeling abused (in some way or form), taken for granted, definitely violated and having had our rights as consumers removed is just simply not worth the time, effort, mental strain and stress that we will have to endure.
With almost half a dozen rogue companies, almost a dozen of domains registered (however half of them closed), they remain somehow active, however they just don't realise that we (the consumer market) are becoming more and more savvy and we will not give up in attempting to successfully banishing them for good!
Look after yourselves! After all, we always get what we paid for! Be good and report any incidents please! Everybody can help. Thank you all.
