Hope you get your money back or your chicken house sorted.  It sounds like a dropshipper to me.  No need for lots of storage space then!

If you ever come across called SimplyABC, that isn't them, it was me!  I started off a little bloggy website thing where I was going to sell ebooks, but it never left the ground.  I think its still out there somewhere!  

Oooh just had a little Google and can't find me!  Lots of other SimplyABC's out there though!

Re your payment you can definately go to your bank and report it as fraudulent, my belief is that they should re-credit your account almost immediately then pursue the Company on your behalf.  Only if the Company can prove they have delivered to you would you then be re-charged.  Good Luck!!

Oh dear, www.simplychickencoops.co.uk has annoyed the forumers  Silly, silly www.simplychickencoops.co.uk

Just checked out the trampoline site and I'm sorry (call me picky or pedantic (I write for a living))... I wouldn't even entertain a company who wrote this on their website :

Trampolines on the market has grown in recent years and new shapes and sizes trampolines were born on the road. Any other benefit is based on how it is used and what it is. Thus, rounded shape is more designed for children and home.
That if, if you buy 12 or 14ft trampoline, it would be an excellent tool for training an adult or a child, and units of good quality it may take more than one bouncer.

If it didn't have the word 'trampoline' in there, you wouldn't know what the heck they were talking about!

Same address, but has a phone number.

The problem is that there are over 30 pages of Companies registered at that address if you Google it!  

Probably these at a guess.

Just clicked on the link for simplychickens blog - me thinks someone is doing rather a lot of copy and paste without knowing what they are talking about!

The simplychickens website does look professional, as others have said, so you won't be the only one that fell for it.  Hope you manage to get something sorted with your bank.

Edit: Just found this on their pinefurniture site, I think it sums it up well: "when you purchase pine furniture from us, you can rest assured that you are making the right decision and that you are buying for the lowest possible price oak furniture on the market!"

Hi

I have just picked up on this thread. I have a Visa debit card and have been scammed in the past (not by this company, thankfully!). All you need to do is contact your bank, explain you have been scammed and they will put you through to their fraud department to take all of the details. I did that and had my money refunded in 2 days.

Best of luck

I simply detest companies like this one. I do hope that you get your money back. I just looked at their site and clicked on their coops for up 10 hens. please have a look at the rubbish they are selling.

There not fit for purpose, trading standards could be a better way to go.

TALK TO YOUR BANK

Yes Mods, I did mean to shout!! 

Buying on a Visa card gives you protection from that sort of thing - keep all evidence you have - emails you sent & received, etc.

The bank should re-credit you and then take on the company.

Print off what's been flagged up on here if you like, to send to the bank - or indeed to the police, as your report could contribute to an ongoing investigation.

Contact Consumer Direct and they will tell you if you have been ripped off and how many complaints they have received.  They will also..... oh of course they have been disbanded by the government so we have no one to complain to or to compile a list of these sort of companies.

Hi all,

This is my first post on the forum, I found you when trying to find out if I'd been ripped off with my new coop 

I bought a new coop last week from www.simplychickencoops.co.uk supposedly on next day delivery, but no sign of it yet. And the aren't answering my emails. Has anyone used them before? Are they even a real company?

Getting nervous now 

Jamiesmack, any news today on your coop or have you heard back from the company?

You sure about that Dopey?  according to my internet, Homebase is 679 High Road.  It looks like the back of Homebase we can see and the address said 1st floor or something.
