    anyone know Mike Wilson?

    bought a side exit exhaust from this member about a month ago and it never arrived.

    been trying to claim my money back through paypal but apparently he has no money in his account.

    does anyone know of him at all that may aid me in getting my money back?

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    He was very active on the old forums, and came across like a reliable kinda guy.

    Give him a call, but like Raj says... he's probably just on holiday or something...

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    Top Notch guy in my opinion, done some work for me too, plus bought some bits n bobs. I was over at his bit a couple of weeks ago, and he's been having a bit of a time of it lately, a family member had died and he wasnt at his best. I will try and get up to see him over the next few days to find out whats been happening and let him know there are customers still wating.

    Iv dealt with him in the past and had no problems with him for parts. Best way to get hold of him is by phone.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    What details do you have? When some dip **** tried to rip me off last year on the GTiR forum (before I realised he apparently made a career of it on the forums) I waited 3 months for a MAF. Luckily I had bank account details, texts, phone number, home address, emails.... And so on (I usually get everything I can, details wise, when buying something). I gave him 24 hours to refund my money or I was going to the police... At 10am the next day I got a grovelling phone call and a direct payment into my account of the full amount.

    If he's taking the piss, go to the old bill, don't take **** excuses or wonder why you've got no reply to any messages/calls sent.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    are there not any members that know mike? there must be some folks up north that have collected parts off him?
    he had advertised alot of parts in the recent past, as in he has containers full of parts.??

    hes has more than enough time to get the bits to you, he even aknowledged you in this thread too so feck knows whats going on?

    Have you made the Committee aware of it all? They might be able to intervene & find out what's going on with Mike.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    First post!

    Right i bought a rear bumper and bonnet off him a few months ago, still not recieved either.........

    Went to claim the money back via paypal, but went over the 45 day dispute periode so could not claim through paypal, meaning i dont really have a leg to stand on. After looking back i kinda have got the impression that he new this and kept fobbing me off with excuss after excuss untill the 45 days were up and then havnt heard from him since.

    If this is incorrect mike then you are welcome to get intouch and let me know when my items are likely to arrive. Lets just say im not holding out much hope......

    My advice with the exhaust is claim through paypal before its to late.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    This doesnt sound good at all.!

    going by his profile he hasnt been online since :Last Activity: 25-11-2008 20:03

    and if im right, i "think" this is him on ebay http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/renaultturbospares1397 and its not looking good as it states :No longer a registered user also note the recent negative feedbacks with alot of money involved.

    maybe he should be suspended from the traders list until he shows up and answers to those who he owes.?

    whatever the issue, its not on that he came online with a p1sstake comment and vanished.

    Yeah ive noticed all that, I stupidly didnt read the feedback untill i had payed for the items.

    Looks like hes made alot of money without the goods, and got away with it.

    Slightly miffed.

    dont want to falsely accuse anyone but i have my suspicions
    that this might be his new ebay account

    http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/micoachworks1234/

    very shortly after paul r the fellow 11 owner posted this thread
    miraculously an 11 turbo trip computer appeared up for auction .
    is it a coincidence ??

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    something mustve happened in his life to rip people off in this way , why spend over 10 years building a reputation then through it all away in this fashion either way hes shown a complete disreguard to the members of this club and i think its time he was paid a visit either by the peeps who have been stung or by the police .....

    also ban his ip from the site untill he contacts an admin with some form of explaination

    ive met Mike a few times didnt think he could be so low as to indescrimanetly rip peeps off , infact its purelly being a thieving **** and hoping to get away with it

    he bought a turbo timer off me the other day on ebay, took him 2 weeks to pay for it as he said he has limited use of a computer due to internet issues.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    I tried the two numbers that we have listed for him today. His mobile just rang out so i have left a message asking him to look in this thread and explained what the problem is.

    His land line is stating "this number does not receive incoming calls"

    Does anyone have a know working contact number for him?

    If so can you please pm it too me.

    I have just pm him also......which will then automatically send an email to him.

    For the record we have also removed his contact details from the trader section until he sorts this mess out.

    He has no intention of sorting this out, to little money to get the police involved they will just advise going through small claims court.

    Ive emailed ebay notifying them of his new account and what hes been doing. See what they will do about it.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    I did have his number and rang him a few times months ago about buying an r5 but he kept saying it will be ready in 2weeks then i found an r5 and didnt ring back.Sorry ive deleted the message with his number on.He did sound a genuine guy on the phone and said he had a lot of sprares and was a respected member of this site.

    Even if he is having internet problems he should have used another computer to sort it out.Hopefully it isnt something to do with his health/someone elses.If it does turn out he has been messing members around im sure someone will be able to find out where he lives and claim their moneys worth in bits.

    Re: anyone know Mike Wilson?

    I know a guy with a r5 down by me and mike tried to get in contact with him when he scrapped his car to obtain the v5 and vin numbers.

    So if anyone has bought cars of him i would be very suspicious that you haven't got a "illegal" car.
