Echotrials20" Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Why does it when I ring it says to me the number you have dialed is not recognised?? I don't get it, anyone got a real contact number. Ordered some parts 2 weeks ago and still not here Cheers kieran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannytrialskid Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Because he is a scammer. And I don't even think the company actually exists anymore although their website is still up! Unlucky, you should of searched about them before hand. Those products aren't turning up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Manning Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Should have searched the forum for reviews before buying from them. You would have found out, that its a mistake to make any purchases from trials-uk. Sorry about your loss though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echotrials20" Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Ahh right I'm not usually on here. But now I'm building my new gu I will. The only thing is I have bought some bits off them the week before and had no probs. I payed with paypal so I may request a refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannytrialskid Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 So your telling me that you actually got something from them? They haven't updated their website in yonks and if they were still dealing I'm sure they would update their contact details. So how on earth you got them is a mystery!

Echotrials20" Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Well me and my mate are building our new bikes for new year so have been getting bits from tarty, select and trials uk and until now have had no problem with trials uk I have payed with paypal eachtime and has always come next day. Spent loads the first time with not a problem. Didn't think a company. Could be a scamming basturd really so didn't give it a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try get the refund and never use them again until if it is even possible for them to get good rep with the riders again; which I doubt!

dannytrialskid Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I could of sworn that I saw a topic saying someone took over Trials-UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) I remember someone mentioning they thought it had but when Dan posted in the thread about the big drugs bust he also said something about a big winter sale so I assume it's still him in charge. EDIT: Found it here http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=156178&pid=2196185&st=100&#entry2196185 About Trials-UK The company is still running and currently in the process on selling up all products in-stock. There will be a massive closing down sale on very soon. On all orders we will notify all customers that there will be a maximum 2-3 working days delivery lead time. So if anyone want to get a bargain and don't mind waiting please visit. Edited December 3, 2010 by isitafox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echotrials20" Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Cheers for shedding a light on this guys Just glad I didn't order more bits or it wasn't expensive stuff Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK999 Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) I'm pretty sure most people will agree but like you I'm new to all this too, so I'll just mention the service/infrastructure etc www.tartybikes.co.uk has is incredibly impressive, didn't have any huge issues with my first order which is where a company will really shine or fail to but a couple of niggles with the payment system which was not their fault and something I had a question about regarding the order were dealt with very quickly, in a friendly, informative manner. I've actually recommended to someone outside of the trials scene that they should look at their ordering system etc as an example of how to do things! edit: Can't do clicky links in the new members section? Mine won't work Edited December 3, 2010 by MK999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam T Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I use to shop with trials-uk back in 2008 always had very good service, fast delivery and best price. Even got a free lollipop . But in the past 2 years dan ko has just dissapeared and there was a topic on here a while back about trials uk been a weed farm. God knows where he is now... Andrew Copied and pasted from the topic: bought the warehouse as an investment and was rented out early January 2010 to a company based in Bristol who was looking to expand through the midlands and needed storage space, they was in "florist" industry. I literally found out about this operation on the very same day the police raided the unit, as a friend from another unit called me and told me. I was completely shocked and gobsmacked that a operation like this was happening in one our premises! Just for the record to people who actually think I was involved in such disgusting activity you are absolutely wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
