I’ve given up waiting for a response as it went cold months ago and doesn’t look appetising in the slightest now. I’m still hungry though, but have lost alot of weight so I guess it works.

Don – I think it’s okay if you make it with custard. Two wrongs make a right or something.

Two wrongs make a right or something.

Got you. It is a bit crusty now, so would it be OK to make into a cheesecakey type thing? I read somewhere on the internet that this could be a good recovery food. Panorama didn’t say no.

Make it into a creme brulee with a singed coke topping.

Good idea, why thank you kind sir.
What were the proles talking about again?

Is it only slimjim who is owed?

Proper coke though, not coca-cola.

Coca-cola?

Well, it’s clear he still has his supporters.

Well, it’s clear he still has his supporters.

Like that, is it?

Like that, is it?

It would seem so, can’t really see any other reason

Does that mean that if you’re not carrying a pitchfork, you must be a supporter?
No room for sitting on the fence because you don’t have access to all the facts?
Sorry, forgot where I was for a minute, of course, you’re right.

Does that mean that if you’re not carrying a pitchfork, you must be a supporter?

No

There is.

However, it seems to me that those that try to derail this thread might be doing so with some other agenda

I will say that you’re mistaken in your belief.
Tomatoes, in or out?

Good try! Where’s the money?

Whoah, whoah, whoah… I have no agenda when I derail any other thread!

Or

Good, now ask him where the money is.

😆

Good, now ask him where the money is.

Good to see that you’ve analysed the info and come to a well informed conclusion.

I think, I’m not 100% sure, that people received the plan, they just didn’t get the levels of support they expected.

Nope, contact and payment in March, no plan ever delivered.

Plenty of sympathy for the problems encountered, which is one of my reasons for not being an arse and sending loads of grief through twitter or whatever, but that runs pretty thin when you can’t get any response via email.

I would quite happily still take a training plan rather than cash, but that requires some kind of communication 🙁

Nope, contact and payment in March, no plan ever delivered.

Fair enough, all the info I’d seen here was of at least receipt of the plan.

so, you know it was a holiday and you know he didn’t send the plans?

Well you know him and that is less than a glowing endorsement

In defence of STW, he’s not a very good communicator..

And his job is to train and coach people and he has sold his idiet on here and yet he cannot communicate very well…proper LOL

He did also have severe and ongoing email issues, more than just a crashed server.

Which has thankfully not affected his ability to tweet even if it have affected his ability to post on STW .. hardly a credible defence tbh …we all know he had issues and we all know he has hardly bent over backwards to rectify them

I think, I’m not 100% sure, that people received the plan, they just didn’t get the levels of support they expected.
Having seen some of the questions on the idiet threads I imagine the expectation level was quite high.

I would call that defence tbh whether you wish to prevaricate or not – I think i can guess:wink:

Does that mean that if you’re not carrying a pitchfork, you must be a supporter?

Why would you suggest that those who think dave has been unfair to folk and should remedy it are all carrying pitchforks – why the charicature if you are not defending him? Bit tabloid that tbh

Would you be annoyed to be out of pocket for paying for something you did not get?
Surley this is reasonable

IMHO this is worse than RM as he did at least get the bits the only issues was debate about condition, Idave has deliverd far less. Had RM sent one brake and a calliper you may have a point re comparison

He needs to sort it ..it is clear he has unhappy customers, it is clear he has internet access, it is clear he has not sorted it despite promises to do so and it is clear he is free two days per week to sort it

Of course this scam is failsafe, all those who have been stiffed by him will be too fat to chase him even if he does reappear

I think i can guess

And it’s just that, isn’t it? 😉

Why would you suggest that those who think dave has been unfair to folk and should remedy it are all carrying pitchforks

I didn’t mean that I thought that they were literally carrying pitchforks silly…

He needs to sort it

Agreed, but I wouldn’t know whether he’s in the middle of that process or not, which is why I refrain from commenting either way.

thank you Junkyard, a voice of reason

I think, I’m not 100% sure, that people received the plan, they just didn’t get the levels of support they expected.

Lets be clear, I enquired about a plan, I received almost instant response from iDave, we discussed options, we shared information regarding my profile, here’s the good bit, he then chased me for payment stating ‘your plan is ready to go’, he then chased me again.. I contacted him to say his account details were wrong, he contacted me back within minutes offering correct details…
I paid £250
I asked him to confirm receipt, which he did within minutes.

I waited a few days, and scratched my head.
I chased plan. Nothing.

I chased again, to be told ”Im just finalising details, enjoy your last few days of freedom”

‘WTF?’ I thought, I was told previously, twice, that the plan was ready.

I chased again around a week later, a week or so after that I was told ”I thought id sent it, itll be sorted tomorrow”

I chased again. Nothing.
Repeat x5 etc.

Over the next 3 MONTHS(!!!) I’ve managed to get 3 responses from him. One was more than a sentance, and said something along the lines of ”you probably hate me, i’ll sort this for you pronto”

Nothing.

Last week I was promised a refund again, 8 days later.. guess what..
Nothing.

I’m giving it 24hrs then the Twitter warfare begins, he’s has enough time to prove what a great guy he is.

To clarify, great responder until you hand the money over, then, NOTHING.
no plan, no paperwork (heaven forbid he actual mail you a programme in the post!).
NOTHING.

Agreed, but I wouldn’t know whether he’s in the middle of that process or not, which is why I refrain from commenting either way.

The middle of the process?

In which case, by your reasoning, I can hope to receive a refund in late October?
Sounds fair.

Sounds fair.

Yep, that sounds fair in the typical taking everything literal kind of way that is one of the STW joys. 😉

Well, Don Simon, tell me do you think that they way iDave has behaved is reasonable?

So,

Agreed, but I wouldn’t know whether he’s in the middle of that process or not, which is why I refrain from commenting either way.

So, you didn’t actually mean that?

I struggle to see any humour there. Even if I still had £250 in my pocket, I think I would still look at your comments and think ”strange that he’s unwilling to accept skull duggery is afoot in this case”
or something

EDIT: DP

EDIT: TP

Well, Don Simon, tell me do you think that they way iDave has behaved is reasonable?

That’s something that only me and iDave will know.

Why don’t you want to share that opinion with us?

Why don’t you want to share that opinion with us?

Why would I? It’s none of your business.

sure, but you’ve shared your opinion on many other things here, and it is a discussion forum after all.

OK, so boxers or Y fronts? Boxers let you breathe a bit more. IMO.

Why would I? It’s none of your business.

what a crock of shit, why even comment at all?! get the heck outta this thread if youre going to be such an arse.

FFS, I’d love to see your opinion if he owed YOU hundreds

How long does the Process take? It’s not rocket science to send money by bank transfer/PayPal/cheque.. The classifieds on here would be screwed if the Process took ages…
If he can twitter he can refund money, unless he’s spent it..bike riding in France for example…

get the heck outta this thread if youre going to be such an arse monkey

and it is a discussion forum after all.

Arse monkey who gets shirty when they don’t like the opinions of others is the biggest arse monkey.

OK, so boxers or Y fronts? Boxers let you breathe a bit more. IMO.

Yeah, but ignoring your creditors and getting your flying monkeys to create interference for you gives you even more breathing space
