rmGibbons327's review of RideMow - www.ridemow.co.uk

“Has anybody ever got a mower or a refund”

★☆☆☆☆

written by rmGibbons327 on 23/03/2014

Spent £1199 with this lot on the 11.02.14 again bank transfer. They said I would get the mower in three weeks. Not taken delivery but lots of nice emails saying it will be with me shortly. However got an email yesterday saying that due to problems the delivery will be another six weeks. I have then come to this site and seen that lots of others have been effected but nobody has put up any outcomes on how this was resolved. Did you lose your money? Has anybody actually got a mower from this lot? I think I know the answers to these but live in hope

Many thanks

M

Hi M - I too ordered a ride on mower from ridemow and stupidly transferred £699 pounds. I also received e mail saying delivery would be another 6 weeks. After several phone calls assuring me it was not a scam there is now no reply on the number given (a mobile number). I have reported this to trading standards and to the police who directed me to a site actionfraud.police.uk where I filled in a form reporting this scam. I suggest you do the same. I am sure we have lost the money but at least if we can stop other people losing money it will be worthwhile. I hold out no hope of getting money back. Please keep in touch. Derek

HI Derek I am in daily contact with them via email and have also gone to the police and trading standards. They do respond to emails and have been promising me a refund via bank transfer all last week but as yet not received it. I will of course keep you up to date but my feeling is that the money is long gone. many thanks. M

I also ordered a mower and have had several emails saying they will refund. But as of today I have had nothing. I have just tried to get back onto their website and it's gone !!! I fear I have lost my money, how have they got away with it for so long?

After emails daily and getting responses from ride mow they have now shut down the site and my last email was returned to me as that is shut down too. Our fears have been realised and our money is lost unless anyone else has any ideas. Please let me know if anyone has a way forward. many thanks. M

Martin their site is back up as are their phone lines, cannot understand what is going on. I emailed them this morning and told them I am applying to the courts for a CCJ and will then call the sheriffs in. I have just had a response from Maria who has said they are not a fraudulent company and that a cheque for my refund is being sent! I don't hold out much hope of the cheque clearing bit will keep you posted.

Hi M, I'm still waiting (from January) on the tractor which costed £ 1299.00. From RideMow only same and same promises. Here is somebody who was the lawnmower delivered or returned the money? What to do in this situation? Thanks, Monty

HI just an update obviously still waiting for a refund but was wondering if you had any joy with a cheque??? They have avoided giving me a business address so will be very difficult to serve a county court summons on them. If anyone does get an address or more information please share it. Many thanks. M

Hi, no cheque received. Not a surprise, I was also promised a bank transfer after continually contacting them, but nothing. I see from a later comment they appear to have been caught and are on bail !!!! An expensive lesson learned here. I am usually so careful so could kick myself for doing a bank transfer. We have lost £1199

Contact trading standards. They are taking them to court and in my view the more cases against them the longer sentence they get.

you never know under the proceeds of crime if one of these lot has a house then there is a chance of some money back.
