Bourkey Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 It' seems every now and then we cannot escape being conned by sellers or companies that do shite jobs on our cars.We already have a very good national business directory for good businesses so why not have one where we should be aware of dodgy sellers or companies.

SiCaln Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 yea very good idea sir Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fogdoggydog Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I'll second that idea Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I'll third thatI think it should be in the same section as the National Business Directory! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted May 31, 2007 Author Share Posted May 31, 2007 Good idea. A sub section in there would be good. It's just so we have business to use and ones NOT to use Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 i suspect we may need to be careful with this, its a good idea that i like, however, word of mouth about somewhere bein crap is one thing, but actually publisin it on the net, would that not constitute slander in some form?? would be therfore be open to some form of legal action if it did constitute slander or defemation of character??perhaps MJ's missus JoJo could shed some light here.dont mean to be a buzz kill but u know wot todays world is like!Phil.

Idrees Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Excellent point there Phil^ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 Yeah good point. We wouldn't want to get into trouble for it.I think a rule for the section must be that you have to have proof of the dealings like photos and not just that a mate said they are crap.

Nanglebadger Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 good plan!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Right Phil, spoke to Jo, she says that any published details regarding a company/individual require their permission to be publicly shown.If not, then they have the right to sue the individual/UKSC as a site Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 i think that puts paid to this idea then im afraid, dont wana get Geo in shit!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 Ah well. it was worth a try. Don't want to get anyone in trouble though so your right in saying it's best to pass on this idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RoSsSr16v Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 phil sounds like a man with a plan... lol excellent idea though if we cud have got the go ahead for this damn the government Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stevie B Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 yeah BUT.... we could have a a "Named" & "Shamed" section, giving your own experience with any company S. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 That's one way round it.Could just name what area/town the dodgy garage is in, to avoid legal action.And if anyone is from that area and wants to know the name of the garage they could PM whoever posted the thread?

Bourkey Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 MMMM. Seems this may be brought back to life then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 yeah, thats a good idea, they have one on another forum i use and its really effective!Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gaz Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I only really buy regularly from Toby or Dave anyway.But theres always the odd company that is a pain in the ass which is worth pointing out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
