Auroras Wish - Mr John King

Jezzer 1 · 25th February 2010, 08:39

Following my own complaint against Auroras Wish, I wrote to Wiltshire Trading Standards and asked them to look into his nefarious activities

.

I had a phone call this morning from Trading Standards. They will be paying him a visit and would like to know of any members with outstanding problems.

Would anyone who still has issues please email details of the amounts owed and comments to:

[email protected]

She would like to know asap to add to their case.

Hope this helps anyone with problems.

Thanks for the update regarding Auroraswish / Mr John King. Can I just follow up the request above to ask that people who are experiencing difficulties in receiving goods or refunds from this person send a message as soon as possible please to assist Trading Standards.

Where I still have the information, those of you concerned will hopefully have a PM regarding this - apologies in advance if you have already sent a mesage to Sue Wilkin as per Jezzer's request.

Wish EBay would get involved, they have closed at least two of his accounts.

The Club has further details of Mr.King available but they are for the purpose of furthering lines of communication rather than simply turning up on his door step, although I am sure a number of you would love to do that

If you PM Pete with details of your problem, if it was bought through the Club's forums, then he may be able to further enlighten you as to Mr.King's credentials.

This applies to any other members also - although with Trading Standards now on the case it would be prudent to follow the advice in the opening post and email Sue directly. If you have bought items from him in response to an advert previously posted on the forums then you may also contact Pete as all his previous threads are 'stored' for reference should they be needed.
