Looks like moulsdale is moving to desperate measures to stop people posting heere .

Maybe so. I've had calls from these muppets in the past and so was interested in what was happening to the companies involved.
As a customer of Specsavers, I'm just glad that I've never had to deal with bad customer service in Optometry.

Think you need to get a new line though. Anon clearly is nothing to do with OE. Can't you just go back to posting informative and interesting messages and stop arguing with people?

David moulsdale probably wrote that too .

Someone called 'EX' has written on this forum alleging/suggesting  that David Moulsdale has been involved in more than one female employee on one night at the optical Christmas parties . He /she also alleges that his personal assistant aids him to keep the ' previous ones ' out of the way .

This alleged planned act in my view can only be interpreted as a pre planned act of abuse of victims  by an employer and in my view at the very least breaching employment laws - acting in a manner which is not in the best interests of a workforce .

That comment by 'EX ' has now been deleted off the forum .

Strong chance members of the senior management team at optical express have Been writing on this forum to save face and protect David Moulsdales interests .
Including alleged slandering a campaigner for legislation in eye surgery after she whistleblew after being offered an alleged bribe by a senior director at optical express on behalf of David moulsdale .

There have also been previous allegations on the forum of David moulsdales use of cocaine and alleged company policies which include delayed refunds , allegedly customers currently unable to get refunds - alleged gagging orders being imposed for surgeries gone wrong for customers to obtain refunds and news reports suggesting David moulsdale put his 83 stores into administration before the rent was due- enraging landlords - yet claiming he was going to be opening new stores.

David moulsdale has borrowed heavily from RBS which had now been bailed out by the tax payer -

Possibly the same taxpayer who is now struggling to get refunds  .

Reposted comment from ' glad to be out '

'Just being laughing at this page after page of hate against OE. I worked for them for 3 years and so much of what you people have said on here is true and if anything worse! Too many stories to start telling on here but lets just say that a whole lot of very good hard workers are wasting their time with this business. The image they try to give people about being professional is so far from the truth as to be laughable. One mistake, error, failure, delay, late payment, failed refund, unhappy customer after another.'

Im reposting the comment from 'onwards and upwards'

'Optical Express is a joke of a company, Mr David Moulesdale can give all the motivational speeches he likes but the truth is David and his management don't give a toss about the customers or his staff. Its all about the money......To line his pocket no one elses!!!

I can't see why this hasn't made the news, especially having 152 UK stores now reduced to just under 80!

David thinks nothing of closing the stores and telling no one, till staff and customers turn up for their work. To find the shop closed, emptied of all stock and can't explain to loyal customers that are there to collect their glasses or contact lenses which they have paid for that they cant help or advise them as they didnt know themselves,Disgusting!! Then the process of having to fight tooth and nail for refunds.,is another hurdle, they will gladly take the money from you but getting it back is another thing all together.
Not just  with the customer refunds, every company be it glasses,contact lens orders,distribution,sanitation products,ink catridges, printer maintenence,  or simple stationery orders are all bounced as they move on to the next unsuspecting company!
The amount of people that have been made redundant before christmas is alarming and yet he is still having his Christmas Party at Glasgow Hilton, Doesn't have a concience to stand up there and give it the big I AM, he's doing alright, stuff the ones that put in the graft and actually do a days work for him!
Yes people, customers and employee's talk, whole place is corrupt to the core.....Not what you know, It's who you know in there.
Aslong as the senior management bow down to David and answer all his demands, there fine and dandy, minute David needs to rein some cash back in, close stores, pay people off!!! Just like that!!'

@Wondering

Change the record.

Even you seem to have realised that no-one is reading your own drivel and you've resorted to re-posting from other people.  Is that why you didn't get much sleep last night?  Repeating something doesn't make it any more valid.

Since you are so worked up about David Moulsdale and his alleged sex and drugs habits why don't you take it to the police?  If allegations are true and you don't talk to the police you are morally reprehensible and far worse than you claim Moulsdale to be.

Like you are morally responsible for covering moulsdales back ? Do you get paid enough ?

Who are you exactly and what is your relationship to Moulsdale ?

Do you have a job ? Because for someone who is apparently self employed and doing ok you seem to have way too much time for this forum .

Aren't you morally responsible to stop persecuting  government campaigners and people like myself who are expressing views and concerns and help this country  in socially and economically fldifficult times by allowing transparency instead of probably lying about being a journalist or probably lying about not taking moulsdales money to rebutt various concerns that nearly 200 people wrote on Facebook and many more on this forum who's freedoms in my view are being violated probably through in my view corrupt practices of businessmen who think they can pay away all their problems and misdemeanors to allow for in my view social and economic mal practice in order for in my view mediocre businessmen like David Moulsdale to continue unashamedly borrowing from now taxpayers bailed out banks to fund a complete in my view disregard for the societies they serve ? Whilst lining their pockets .

I don't apologise for losing sleep over the concerns I have but I feel sure people like yourself do not see the wider picture aside from your own incentive to write your rubbish here and probably lying - do you not see your responsibility in a free society to stop trying to stop others from expressing their opinions and discrediting them ?

Do you think that our economy needs people like moulsdale who seems to have made a lot of money through borrowing yet is happy to put many landlords out if pocket according to news reports ?

What about those landlords and their families . Do you not understand the wider impact of people who in this day and age in difficult times feel it ok tto in my view act in a manner which is not in the best interested of in my view customers , employees , landlords , suppliers The Economy and line their their pockets ?

You are a bit OTT aren't you? Are you a bit lonely? Maybe you should get out more.

Thanks! I have now :-) Shocking and Outrageous!

So we've seen how the Optical Express ads and sales tactics have worried some medical experts but the procedure patients go through before surgery and the information that they have been provided with is also cause for concern.

Although you keep accusing me of covering Moulsdales back and similar there is absolutely nothing on this website (or any other) to support that accusation.  Play another record.

As I have said many times, I have absolutely no relationship to Moulsdale or Optical Express or any other part of the LVC industry.  Unlike Sasha.

A lot of my job is working from home and my time is mine to do whatever I want with it, when I want.  You also seem to have a lot of time.  How do you account for that?

I'm not persecuting government campaigners per se, just exposing a corrupt one who has been bought off by part of the industry that they are supposed to be campaigning against. I'll be proud to have done that.

Explain, how, exactly, have I prevented others from expressing their opinions?  I haven't, for instance, tried to smother posts by a flood of repeat posts, re-posting old data or deliberately twisted their words as you have.

If someone posts on a public website they can expect to have unsubstantiated opinions and other BS challenged.  It should be a discussion, not a shouting match.  What is allowed depends entirely on the rules and goodwill of the website owner.  Don't like it, find another or start up your own. There is no right of free speech on someone elses' website and you and I have both been censored by the owner.

I fully understand the wider economic impact of different actions.  Rather better than you I suspect.  I sympathise with those who have lost money and jobs through the actions of both Optical Express and Optimax, but this is a recession and I've lived through one before.  It's what happens. You either get on with life or wallow in your own pity.

Paraphrasing Retailer if you feel so strongly about Moulsdale and your allegations are true, then go to the police, go to the newspapers.  If you don't you are morally corrupt or a liar.

You must have a pretty sad life if you spend all day everyday finding new ways to disagree with me whilst trying hard to get me to meet  strangers in hotels .

If you must know - I don't even read your comments so I suggest you stop addressing me .

Not interested .

@Wondering
I have a pretty full and active life actually.  

What an unjustified ego you have!  It may surprise and dishearten you to know that you occupy very little of my thoughts.  It requires very little effort to answer you - mainly because you are so repetitive.  Consequently no new ways to disagree with you required.

Evidence of your memory problem again - I don't care whether you meet reading with interest or not.  For new readers, it was Wondering who challenged reading with interest to a meeting and when her bluff was called is now trying to twist the situation.  So predictable.

Really - full and active making people redundant ?

Or misleading young women with the aid of a few misguided employees ?

Surprised anyone wants to know you .

Ps I am not sasha rodoy .

I've got better things to do than talk to you on a Friday night. Shove off I'm busy and have no desire to meet your abusive rascal of a probable OE robot in a hotel or anywhere else .

@Wondering
For someone who doesn't even read my comments, you are now doing a better job than when you claimed to read them!

Though your memory is no better and you are still trying to twist my words.  I work for myself and have no connection with OE, Optimax or anything to do with LVC.  How am I supposed to be making people redundant?

Likewise, there's only myself to mislead.  No young women.

A correction - you haven't actually been talking with me this evening.  Though it's better than the usual repetitive rants. Also reading with interest is nothing at all to do with me, though I'm not going to let you re-write history by implying that he wanted to meet you.  You challenged him - he called your bluff, now you are backing off.
