Gary and Marcus Davies have had a string of rip off business rating companies, and left a string of dissolved and wound up companies, having first fleeced small businesses out of upfront fees for non existent reductions.

Be very aware that the Director, Gary Davies, and Marcus Davies of the Utility Bill Helpline Ltd are obtaining money by deception and fraud.

If you have been a victim, please add your comment below.  If you are prepared to provide evidence to the Police in the form of a witness statement, I can be contacted through my google plus profile.  If we can get enough complaints of fraud, we aim to bring criminal proceedings against them.  If we are successful, we may be able to recover your money through an asset confiscation order.

Alarming Evidence

I am always concerned when I see businesses vocally criticising other businesses operating in the same industry - the reason they discredit competitors (possibly decently reputable companies in their own right) is usually to persuade you to sign up to their services at the expense of other companies - because it is firstly very poor business practice, and one usually finds problems closer to home.

I am therefore going to investigate www.utilitybillhelpline.co.uk to look at their own bold claims, and test the trustworthiness of their company using information already in the public domain.

On their website, they use the following contact address: Coopers House, 65a Wingletye Lane, Hornchurch, Essex RM11 3AT
This is their Registered Address as required by Companies House.  However they do not publish their actual trading address.  Why would a company not wish to provide this?
The Registered Address is a building used by Haines Watts Group which is an Accountancy firm - and presumably their accountants - so should you have a complaint against Utility Bill Helpline Ltd, you would not be able to physically find them.
They do NOT provide a telephone number, NOR an email address, so contacting them could prove problematic.
The Company Director as recorded at Companies House is Mr Gary Davies.
Gary Davies has a string of dissolved companies behind him which have been G DAVIES CONSULTANTS LTD (which was struck off after going into voluntary liquidation) and BUSINESS RATES HELPLINE LTD (which is showing as dissolved with a First notification of strike-off action in London Gazette (Section 652).
At the same home/service address provided to Companies House, Mrs Carron Davies, and Mr Marcus Reece Davies were Director and respective Company Secretary of DUNCAN REGENT ASSOCIATES LTD which was dissolved after being struck off after going into voluntary liquidation and was also a Business Rating Appeals Company which has been reported to be a SCAM COMPANY.
There is a lot of unhappy clients here http://www.unknownphone.com/search.php?num=01204388189 who claim they were RIPPED OFF.

Already there seems to be a string of Business Rating Appeal Companies who appear to have misled and lied to companies, running off with substantial Up Front Fees.  The very thing Utility Bill Helpline are alleging other companies are doing before telling us that they have amazingly managed somehow of getting up front fees back to companies who have been ripped off by other companies!!!!!  How?  And then claiming to have saved them thousands of pounds through their own appeals?!!!!  Is that really a likely story?  When DUNCAN REGENT ASSOCIATES LTD and the BUSINESS RATES HELPLINE LTD seem to have developed quite a negative reputation of their own doing?  It doesn't convince me I'm afraid.

It is deeply concerning that the Utility Bill Helpline Ltd, also seems to be very much centred upon offering the services of Business Rate Reductions and would definitely occur to me to be a very large red flag.

This company has a LOT of Testimonials which name Companies which Gary Davies claims have misled and lied to consumers, and defrauded.  Having looked at the evidence, there are a tremendous amount of similarities between the 'customer testimonials' which lead me to form an opinion that they are fake.  Remember this is only my own opinion.  However, if they are fake, then please be wary of the comments they have made in relation to other companies in the same industry to them, because they may be lies.

Trading Standards will be asked to look into this case, and it will be up to Gary Davies to substantiate his Testimonials.  If they are indeed false, this constitutes 'canvassing business away from a trade or business' which is a criminal offence, by means of false representation (which is another). Not a concern when the whole thing has the potential of being a scam; locking customer's into costly and lengthy contracts on unfair terms.

If you trust this company or any of it's Claims and fantastic 'Testimonials' on their website, then look at the facts before you believe what you are told.

Ive done the same and feel a complete idiot - did you pay these cowboys ? How do I get out of this can anyone help

Can you please help me - we signed the paper work and getting harassed by Nadine to pay the survey or cancellation fee - Can you please help us as a small Company they are asking for some £1550.00 without doing anything ??? PLEASE PLEASE HELP GET THESE SCUM BAGS CLOSED DOWN. There contracts are so in there favour. !!!!!!

Don't pay them.Their contract is not watertight.On what grounds did they put an appeal in,misselling by their surveyor I guess.

I am waiting to here from Trading standards and will give more information when I have heard back from them. There contract is so much in there favour.

You want to google insolvency agency business rates.two other business rates firms one from Manchester and one from London have been wound up by the insolvency agency,a govt dept for misleading clients.

Hello there wondered when you would come back on........missed you darling

glad to see you are well

This company contacted me. The lady gave me a speech where she tried to imply that she had been asked to contact me by the vaulation office to deal with my rates rebate. I questioned her and eventually got the facts that they were a private business. She did try to give me the impression they were an official organisation dealing with re-valuations on behalf of the valuations office rather than a private business touting for custom. Not good.

Fradulent scam artist!! Stay well clear, they take your money and run. You can never speak with the directors terry mckenzie and nardine worden, I mean do they even excist! Don't sign any of the contracts as you will be bound to them till 2022.

I was promised no payments would be made until a survey was carried out by SJ Associates.
Guy came round, i signed the paper and there was no T&C's with it.
Surveyor was due to come round to survey, but i cancelled beforehand.
Now I have an invoice for 2.5% of the rateable value.
Scam artists, despicable.
They can sing for the money, terrible contract, No t&c's - Do one!

Can anyone tell me if there contracts are watertight as our manager signed up to this so called rates rebate from SJ Assocaite,appaentlly the salesman Jason promised a substantial refund. After looking these are a scam company and we want to get out as they have just raised an invoice for 2,5% of the rateable value.

you need to speak to your solicitor, possibly trading standards (in Manchester) may have a view. if a contract has unfair T&Cs, a court of law could cancel it. from reading previous posts, seems unlikely "gary" or "marcus" or "nadine" would venture out into the harsh light of scrutiny? u could just tell 'em to foxtrot-oscar and see what happens next?
also, inform them politely, by registered post, that with immediate effect any future written correspondence or telephone/email contact will incur your firm's hourly rate of £300 per hour, or any part thereof, (plus your reasonable expenses including any and all legal fees incurred) and that their next contact will be deemed full acceptance of these terms, payable in advance. ie they must send your firm a cheque, which you will wait to be cleared, then you will consider your reply. should your research take longer than one hour, or incur additional costs, then further payment will be required before you issue a reply.
oh, don't be bullied by these crooks. bullies are only successful if victims are cowed by them and don't stand up to the plate.
