Money Claim Online is NOT how I would go about it, it is very limited to say the least!

it's a cheap alternative, slighlty better than just sending emails that get no reply.
I have never used the service myself so you probably have a better knowledge of the details of the service and it's shortcomings.
I have experience of civil action with regard to large sums of money, it gets v.expensive v.quickly and doesn't always work out that you get all thats owed which can put people off when it means hiring a £100 per hour solicitor when they are owed £200

Well the way I've done it is the same as MCO, but all by post. Same costs and everything. No need for a solicitor, easy to do yourself. Only reccommend it as a last resort though. I'll happily give anyone advice if they want it.

Ive never read such a pile of total and utter shite in my life.
If I were Trevor Id be asking you to get my details out of your avatar as you are doing him no favors talking such nonsense, people might think you are a trader on here and think that is your approach to customer service god forbid.
Blackening someones name... are you for real?!? Perhaps if he stopped taking peoples money or supplied their parts his name would not be blackened.

I once again ask...is toby not now fullfilling his orders therefore not taking peoples parts or money!
Plus below my name it says paid member, nothin about a trader, I buy my cars of Trevor so I doubt people with any common sense will know I'm not a trader! So it won't harm trevors business!

He has said, after months of silence, that he is now sorting things out but he has said that in the past and so it remains to be seen - actions speak louder than words. As for your comment about "blackening his name" ... it took us to "blacken his name" a couple of days ago before he would respond to members - if you think it was the wrong thing to do perhaps you should have suggested an alternative way to get him to break radio silence and bother to speak to the people whos money he has been holding for months.
I know you are not a trader but with a companies logo as your avatar and their forum name in your signature less informed members may not. As you appear to be conveying the attitude that it is okay to take peoples money for months and not bother supplying what you have sold I think it would be a great shame if anyone misread your position, thanks for clarifying for new members that you have nothing to do with Trevors trading forum.

I think I'm being took up wrong! I'm not saying holding anyones money is right but the man isn't, he is now supplying the parts or money!
I don't think it's fair waiting so long but now the man is supplying so therefore he isn't a theif.
So what I have in my avatar is my own business, it's between me and Trevor and not you Dylan!

as I said... actions speak louder than words... if he lives up to his word then members get what they have paid for that will be great, his past actions suggest otherwise but I will be delighted if this changes.
As for your avatar and signature, you are right it is your business and now that you have cleared it up for people who might not have known I am glad you will not potentially impact anyone elses business.

I will not be impacting anyones businesses! Only impact I've had on trevors is a profit for him by buying cars and sending him customers and helping him out doing other things around his house etc!
And as for Toby, well I hope it changes and I believe it will.

You see, that is exactly the problem, he has been holding people's money. In fact in many cases for 3-4 months with zero communication.
If you ordered parts for your car from Toyota or any other trader, would you accept a 3-4 month wait? I think not....
If parts are made available on a website, showing as in stock and available to purchase, you expect the company to deliver in good time with communication as to what is happening with your order.
Absolutely no one would have placed an order with Toy Tuning knowing there would be such a wait on parts.

An excellent response full of hope and careful reassurance. If only I hadn't read it so many times before..
For those of you giving him the benefit of the doubt I know the feeling - I put my reputation on the line previously and he fucked it all up regardless. This boy and broken promises seem to go together.
As far as I'm concerned his last chance was, well his last chance.
This may come across as harsh but after months of deathly silence only broken by poor excuses and foolish arrogance I can feel no other way. He deserves the same respect that he has shown to his long-suffering customers and that isn't much at all.

is nobody asking the question why its been so long? i wanna know just through shear curiosity. Did he fall of the face of the planet or something? what about a RC developments type manouver?
would be interesting to know.
Personally im pretty sure people will always buy parts from toy tuning, purely because its (on the face of it) quick and easy.
Think how many cars keighly trade sports and performance sells with there reputation.

I think if Toby really wants to have any hope of truly resolving this situation, he should make his phone number public and take what's coming to him on the chin.
I don't see how he thinks he can gain any confidence from people if he's always hiding behind a keyboard. Toby may not want loads of people phoning him, but I'm sure loads of people didn't want to give him their money and then have no contact.

Just a quick post to say that all of my order has now arrived from Toy Tuning!
Has everyone else who had ordered stuff getting their goods/refund now?
