No but there's a picture of Ken Gundlach in the mirror now

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/bordeaux-fine-wines-wine-deal-3003561

Try this!

Who is John Wood? How is he the instigator in this?

He is Alfie or John wood and I have seen him in chipstead in his car

70  staff? This company has been trading for five years and yet not one of these members of staff reported anything to the authorities! Disgusting selfish greedy b*****ds who have now suddenly found remorse now they have to sell their cars! Knew what they were doing and yet treated people as numbers? Get real decent people dont do this !! To you closers and top members of staff...... You are the same scum as people who mug old people in the street.... No difference in my eyes

Of the 15 pages that this has spiraled into I notice the "blogger" SG seems to be very vocal. The word Bitter springs to mind. "SG" is infact Samantha Grant real name Jade who is now working at another wine brokerage in West Wickham with a selection of failed BFW staff replicating the exact business model. Samantha was one of the founding staff at BFW so all this nonsense about being ignorant to clients, mark-ups etc is rubbish, she helped grow the BFW. The fact is Ken sacked her as she felt entitled to have a place at BFW because she had been there for some years but in the end was not productive, lazy and just a nuisance. Delusions of grandeur spring to mind, and being that you are doing exactly the same job, just under a different company, if you spent less time blogging and more time calling you might actually get a brochure out! Oh that's right, you're now CLOSING I hear, you're better suited to admin judging by this blog, 80 wpm??!!! Don't play the saint, you're as bad as the rest

Reg please tell me more about John wood it would be interesting for a lot of people to have a face to face conversation with this con man

There is no john wood , all names are aliases and broker personas . All top staff kept there real names from there clients even the staff below them as they knew at some point trouble would brew .

ok then so its Alfie or what ever he wants to call him self ,im sure there's plenty of people know him ,and im sure there's even more that would like to catch up with him ,lets name and shame them, then they can all keep each other company in prison for all the fraudulent acts they have commited

Just read SG comments on page 6

Anon not sure what you mean about SG comments its not really giving the answer to my question unless im missing something

Doesn't matter what there real names are the police and tax people already know . All the practices of bfw and it's staff will go unpunished as what they done was not against the law from day one gundlach new it would come to this and the company folding he would not have taken from the company without advice from accountant , lawyer , fellow fraudsters etc etc no police action will follow on gundlach or his brokers or would of happened by now . Minor fine and director ban !

I guarantee that Ken will go to prison for this! I'd stake my life on it! He's done to much wrong to go unnoticed and laws have and will change to deal with this type of fraudster! Within 2 years Ken will be serving a sentence of 5 years plus for his involvement in this. For the top boys they'll wake away scott free, unless they themselves are implicated on company records. Expect a trial. Who's to say Ken won't do a Dunne and run off to Cyprus

Ken will run that's why his house is up for sale and Alfie was one of the top men and I have seen him in the pub in chipstead and driving ins car with a number plate change

Mike Solle or Joseph Stanley set up/registered  Vintage Bordeaux Ltd Dec 09.
Uses the same reg address as Bfw accountants.
A link if only by association.

Yet another poor attempt at journalism or whistle blowing.

I can see what you have tried to do here, but as you have said yourself, you never worked there but have friends who know some of them. Half of what you have written is inaccurate, good old Chinese whispers, stories blown well out of proportion. Either way you should have your facts 100% correct before publishing or you yourself could be in as much trouble as one or two of the main individuals there, however for slander.

I'm not condoning the acts of every member of staff but when Bob Diamond was hung out to dry for the Barclays fiasco, was every Barclays member of staff guilty of a crime? And furthermore would it have been fair to publish their personal details? The answer to both is no.

Regardless of rank, the sales people had a job to, it was not their responsibility to firstly purchase the wine from the supplier nor transfer it into the clients account. That would fall under Operations/Management so be careful before pointing the finger, you only know half the story

Cost of water is negligible, package is about £.02 and transportation per piece is about £.08. Price at the shop, £1.50, a 1500% markup - that's not the issue.

The issue is the product not arriving?

Is selling a product illegal or is not supplying it?

I know Mike left Bordeaux at some point last year, think he was working the two jobs at the same time. He took some people with him too I think. If he isn't careful he will be the next Ken!

Ken had like 70 / 80 people on the floor at some point, got rid of loads of them and kept a few closers. Since all of this, he took a few of the closers with him for one of his other companies.

I think Degi aka Alfie Alphie John Woods whatever you want to call him should pay for this too, as he was the instigator here. He is probably more ruthless than Ken to be honest.

The storage and pensions companies are in the same building or were in the same building. Does anyone know what happened to them? Because they were dodgy too?

I like how he posted a message on here about people putting up his address details etc and saying that he has a wife at home and kids, he didn't seem to care about his wife and kids while he was ripping people off or cheating on her, he knew it was only a matter of time before all this happened as does anyone that gets in to this del boy industry.

I would love to know how they are all coping without having all that money now, their posh pads and flash cars.... struggling maybe?

Why wouldn't they have money now? I am sure they are all still wealthy!

Alfie has been seen in chipstead pubs he must be living there
