I ordered dvd's there and got them next day delivery. It is to my understanding that the company was short staffed and since they sold their products cheap, had a great deal of merchandise to send off.

I have have had exactly the same problem with this company. I still have over £60 worth of goods outstanding - I shall pursue this to the bitter end. The web site advised that they were going out of business and guaranteed to supply ALL orders - this has not yet been the case.Their web site has now been removed and the 'Info' email addresses also deleted. So Phiilip McKellow - if you're reading this - be prepared. Matt Woodhouse...3 September 2002

I have had exactly the same problems with this guy, sorted eventually, but this last time I sent a graphics card back and wanted some speakers which he said he would send, didn't then after a long wait was sent an email that the company was folding but that all orders would be honoured, everything has closed and still waiting for my money,does this guy have a conscience or what, as being on benefits £40 is a lot of money to me.

I placed 2 orders in June for small items no more than a Kilo in each order and never received anything. Their email address is gone and their website is no more. The two people involved, Mandy O'Loughlin and Philip McKellow cannot be contacted. As the orders were under £100 the credit card company are no help. I assume the next step is to take them to court to get my money back.

I ordered a CPU back in June with a specific motherboard
speed specified (200mhz). The money got debited straight away but waited over 4 weeks before receiving it. To my amazement they send me a CPU for the wrong motherboard speed (266Mhz) which was no use to me. I returned the CPU in good faith and asked for a full refund as they could not supply the 200 mhz version.

A email from Philip declared:
'Hi, that will be no problem at all, a full refund including your postage
costs will be sent. Regards PM'

That was in July, I've received a few emails since telling me my refund would be in the next lot!! Fat chance of that!! I should have kept that CPU, I could at least have sold it back on Ebay!! Does anyone know if they went into receivership?
What's the next action to take so they don't get away with it?

Apparently same guy same problem, was trading as GOBIDFORIT last year
and had lack of cash flow & no stock. Before they closed down, the whois gave:

Domain Name: ukpc.tv
Registrant: Mxxxx Rxxxxxx (domain@ichip.tv)
Mxxxx Rxxxxxx
xx Gloucester St
Bxxxx, UK

I can see a few letter of complaints going her way!!

I ordered a Microsoft IntelliMouse (£40) from UKPC.tv back in June 2002. I was told I could have the goods in a couple of days, but after two weeks I decided to give up and cancel the order. I was told that I could have a full refund, which would take a couple of working days. I waited weeks and still no refund, so I emailed UKPC asking why I had not received it. I got no replies from over a dozen emails and so contacted my bank. They dealt with my problem and attempted to contact the company to obtain the refund on my behalf. After ten weeks of waiting, the bank replied stating that the company (UKPC.tv) had failed to respond and so the bank gave me a full refund.
