today i went for an interview in Nottingham for retro consulting and when i got there, there was only one office and like 3 or 4 different companies working out of the same place, i went there before to go for an interview with SSC marketing but this woman Alex i saw last time was now with some other 'company' as SSC marketing aint there anymore, and plus on the retro website it says it was made in 2012 and only was in Nottingham but today in the interview they was apparently set up all around the world like in Brazil and Russia and it has been a business since 2007 so its all lies, i was supposed to be starting with home fundraising which are sort of sales but for charity and they give a basic hourly rate and give commission but i thought this retro company was different as i never heard of them but yh. people also working of of 15 hockley are jam industries and UCS solutions but they are all the same company, just getting you to work for free before you leave and you have made a couple of sales for them so they have made 100% pure profit. they always seem to be hiring people. they all spin you the same rubbish, oh within 6 - 12 months you will be at the top, this is cus we are expanding quickly but dont go for it

I saw this site because someone call me from Thinking Forward events and ask me to be there tomorrow for a interview but i search their adress and their phone and the adress more 2 or 3 companies have it and the phone number was this one that you talk about so I think I will not go waste my time their

www.thinkingforwardevents.co.uk
http://www.liveinnovations.co.uk/

same adress and people said bad things about it

Live Innovations is the new name for the company Live Marketing Direct, owned by Tom Harris. They keep changing names from time to time cos if you type on google the name of the company (any of them) and the word scam, people can find too much [***] about them and it's not good for them.. that's one of the ways they keep misleading people

Another name to watch for is Syntonic Global in Reading, my son (17) had exactley the same experiance, thank god he had the sense to tell them it wasn't right on his assesment day, just think he nearly gave up college to do this. The lady wasn't very happy when he left but as he said to her if they hadn't lied in the original interview about being door to door selling then their time wouldn't have been wasted. by the way they still wanted him doing the door to door thing even though he is not yet 18.

Hello, I got this e-mail yesterday and was wondering if you could help me decide wether to go or not to this interview. Thanks!

Go for it!

The interview may be a real laugh!

You'll get the self-employed job whatever you say or do.

Good luck!

I fell for this scam a couple years ago and showed up for a interview in London Bridge. They pray on desperate graduates and people who are willing to do anything for work. They won't pay you a dime and expect you to stand on the side of the street selling product's. At this time it was e-cigerettes which i had seen around London before this interview and now i know how they recruit these people. They get people to work for free, many long hours with no guarantee of pay and won't look after you. You will be expected to make your own way there, normally losing out on travel.

AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS, and they go under many names. I just avoid that entire road now, but defiantly don't walk down to the dodgy basement they operate from. The moment i walked in i new this wasn't a legit operation. They are abusing loop holes in the eyes of the law and taking advantage of people, watch dog or somebody needs to shut them down... but even when you do that they just come back with a new name and location.

Introduction

In July 2010 the claimant Edward RocknRoll attended a private fancy dress party to celebrate the 21st birthday of his then wife's sister at her parents' private estate in West Sussex. A series of photographs ("the Photographs") were taken by another guest at the party, a Mr James Pope, some of which show the claimant partially naked. Subsequently Mr Pope posted the Photographs to his Facebook account where, until (he says) recent changes in his privacy settings, they could be viewed by his approximately 1500 friends, but not by the general public.

Hmmm....

I got an email this morning from 'live innovations' at this same address askin me to ring them so we could get moving with my application after reading these reviews I don't think il bother! I have a job so I'm not completely desperate!

Same situation, thanks everyone!!! :)))

London marketing services are bloody morons , they think every body in this world are lame and brainless , well i was stupid enough  today  to spend 200 pounds for this interview on my train tickets . They talk crap and try to convince you by giving all unrealistic numbers and sales figure and making you dream like a businessman bull [***]..... I had been for their open day today spending 100 pounds on my journey , they said they would start the proceeding by 12:00 and finish by 8:00 so i had booked the ticket back to my  place well in advance booking it for 9:30 but guess what they started by 2:00 and did not finish by 9:00 . after realizing the job is not my cup of tea i told them i wanna call it day and let me go, they din let me go kept giving  unreasonable numbers and figures.and eventually they made me miss my train back home making me buy immediate ticket costing another 100 pounds. i was traveling out of london each time . i cant believe i fell into their trap but i want to make others aware of this ....

I was contacted by MG Ltd after spotting them on Edp Jobs 24 - a reputable site or so you would naturally believe I thought. I had previously seen Morton Solutions and thought that looked suspect and steered clear but had not seen MG before so I went to the interview in hope of a new job perhaps.
On arrival I found myself in a well hidden, small dentist waiting room type office which had just two others waiting to be seen. Although it was indeed a bit small and with no signage and a little in need of a paint job I had been in worse. I was then greeted by a leggy Latvian 'secretary' who's patter was that more of a 'gentlemens' club than a professional and clearly there as decoration.
I'd arrived as instructed on the hour but was made to wait thirty minutes as the person ahead of me in smart business dress went in and eventually came out smiling - a good sign perhaps.
Likewise although told it was informal I'd decided to suit up and look smart. I was beginning to wonder why the secretary? As surely just two or maybe there were more before were being seen today.
I was duly called in and greeted by a short, stocky stock-exchange type called Sheridan who I was told was Mr Halls.
He had a cheesy grin I didn't much like and an air of smugness that belied his stature along with a self assurity that I've only come across in Oxbridge types of watching Made In Chelsea - a Spencer type if you will. Nevertheless I've been there before with those types and could handle them being a man of 40.
After a while of him motor-mouthing through the product - LoveFilm, he asked me some simple questions and I was glad he'd stopped talking (at me) as it seemed a touch rehearsed and uninteresting, still I smiled politely and asked the usual relevant questions, pay, history of company, etc and he answered them satisfactorily saying that after a few weeks I would be trained and earning around 20000, I'd fully expected this as the ad had said this and I've been a Project Manager before, I presumed it was the starting wage (I shall never presume again!) as Stephanie (another secretary) had explained my CV was more 'Management material'.
Mr Halls proceeded to show me his business model which seemed fine, in fact I've been presented with similar ones before. Then the meeting ended suitably and I was told to expect a phone call later.
After receiving a successful call I was invited my email to an 'Observation Day' again I've been on these before as a Manager at various retail establishment which is what I was led to believe I was observing - promotions and marketing in a retail field!
The day arrived and I was met at the same office by a plethora of people of say around 30, some of whom were in the next door office which at the time of interview was closed and looked unused, not today. For around 15 minutes we were made to wait as around half the group were being seen by what we were told was a separate company and nothing to do with MG....Morton Solutions - a sign had appeared albeit small and another demur lady was manning their desk this time. My first eyebrow raised ever so slightly and a doubt crept into my head.
I was then called in the office with 2 others and Mr Halls and a young chap called Nick who would be training us today, another eyebrow raised when he was dressed identically to Mr Halls - same paisley tie, tight suit and University hair, think Spencer and Proudlock - same accents too! To my amazement another 4 or 5 mini Mr Halls all around 21 yrs old and same outfits came up the stairs and went into Morton's office - clearly connected then!
Anyhow I went along with it and thought just see what happens, I was there now and I'm a big boy so if I smell a rat...
After being led outside by Nick and his sidekick - a wet behind the ears chap called Steve we went toward the City and it was then we were told we were going on a train to a nearby town and that any questions would be answered whilst we were on the move. Oh I thought.
The other two ladies with me didn't seem to flinch and were at ease with what they were doing and I said ok let's see what the day entails.
On the train Nick continued to flex his brain power and quote from business guru books, explain economic theory and other rubbish but avoided all direct questions about the company instead preferring to talk about LoveFilm, seemed normal you might think.
We arrived at the town and proceeded to our mission - it was only on the way that we were then told we were door knocking and I became unhappy to say the least but still I lingered.
After 2 hours of unsuccessful knocking we retired to a nearby pub where I was treated to a can of coke - no expense spared. Some even took the liberty of asking for crisps.
I was then called by Nick to have a chat - he explained to me the business model and proceeded to write it down except this time it wasn't the same as the one the slimy Sheridan had showed me, I'd seen this type before - a pyramid scam whereby you work on commission virtually for free for a time before moving up but then you get the big money he said - all lies I thought but kept on nodding.
After our stop it was dark and around tea time and having secured no sales in the first part we were to.d this was the best and only time to achieve sales so we walked to the nearby estate once more. Nick became something of an arrogant idiot in this time and although achieved 2 or 3 sales after an hour I'd seen enough and left the group to go home as it clearly was a scam!
A few things I haven't yet mentioned - the agent (Nick) gives you meaningless tasks to door whilst you walk around and spaces you out so you can't confere - it's a tactic so you can't discuss or see him at work - this is in the first part. The second part involves you more and going into homes if invited - on the doorstep he was so pushy yet polite, even trying to get an old lady to find a pen and paper so he could write it down for her - another trick - no clip board so gets invited in - he's got a notepad in his jacket - use that.
I smelt a rat at the offices and as soon as I returned home saw this site - I'm glad I've experienced it but it's a scam that will catch many out as they won't pay you or give a contract - on this site also they are blogging so watch out!
They're smart though and like religious types they prey on the weak and gullible using mind brainwashing games like giving you compliments or getting you talking about yourself , don't be fooled they are wealthy con artists who care not a bean about you or what stands in their way.
I'll be reporting this to the EDP and Trading Standards if I hear from them ever again.
