Hardly "muck raking" when much is substantiated with facts, not on WCM but elsewhere.

This is one of numerous complaints to ASA & you'll find that Optical Express continue to flout the rulings.

As for US immigration & police, I have no doubt movements of the OE employee concerned are monitored.

I believe references on WCM have been made to a person's use of cocaine not alcohol.  

I also notice a page deleted here since last night!

What a joke you are. Moulsdale is being watched by the polis and you know it. Hugh Kerr will be history for a second time! Moulsdale will have to sell his big pad in Majorca. WHY DO YOU FOOLISH PEOPLE STAY WITH THIS MAN!

The police have better things to do than watch a sucessful businessman on unfounded and vague rubbish just because you don't like his methods or his sex drive. Make an officilal complaint or shut up. The truth is that you have nothing except gossip from people who couldn't perform in their job.

Do you mean what i see as a perverted disgusting desperate little slob who at the least probably lies to young female employees and at best could potentially be drugging girls into bed for all we know ?

Why has ' Chang ' called David moulsdale the ' jimmy saville of the eye world ' ?

The alleged taking 5 young women upstairs at a work function ( previous commented here ) and as EX alleges your PA keeping others out of the way is not a sex drive - its a disgusting predatory pervert in my opinion .

The alleged drugs (speechless ), oh and allegedly hiring potential criminals? (another commentor on the forum  suggesting this -anything else anyone ?

Where you got Moulsdale being successful from I don't know -


Nothing successful this !

Summary of
Views and comments from forum on David Moulsdale- the owner of Optical Express

1. He has no interest in the wellbeing of his workforce, which is why he abuses his position of trust as an employer to prey on and get involved with young females (employees) through lies , hires multiple bedrooms at his Optical Express Christmas parties and gets his PA to pick up for him. ( as Alleged by 'EX' a commentor on this forum )- I think he therefore demonstrates his attitude towards the the duty of care he has towards his employees.

Another commentor called ' Chang ' has dubbed David Moulsdale the ' Jimmy Saville of the eye world '

2. Someone anonymous  called 'ex' has written on this forum , insinuating that David Moulsdale is using drugs.It is rumoured previous to this that Moulsdale has been using cocaine according to 'speechless.'

3.He is so interested in the best standards of eye care that he (as Sasha Rodoy alleges) has offered a government campaigner a bribe- in contravention to the bribery act and the law, not to campaign for government legislation in laser eye- surely the better option was to work with her?

4. In Personnel Today 2005 it was reported as follows

'Optical Express/The Dental Clinic has been accused of managing its staff badly and ignoring employment regulations. Personnel Today has received a letter from a source close to the company detailing a number of questionable employment practices - all of which have been denied by the management.'

5. David Moulsdale been reported in the papers to have affiliations with a well known scottish gangster.

6. He seems to have no problem with removing feedback about him from the internet (eg this forum, ex staff of optical express facebook pages and wikipedia) so and trying to inimidate people to not be involved in saying anything negative about him- probably so he can drag more people into his fantasist life of no consequences. (The ex staff of Optical Express had nearly 200 members with mainly negative feedback which has now been removed from the Internet )

7.  David Moulsdale has had his company offer complaining customers refunds - allegedly( Orml info) only when they sign a gagging order stopping them from telling others about their experience. see opticalexpressruinedmylife.co.uk

8. some customers who have struggled to get refunds and or compensation have written testimonies on opticalexpressruinedmylife.co.uk-

9. There are comments on this forum suggesting people feel intimidated by Moulsdale eg .'bob etc'

10. Moulsdale has borrowed heavily from RBS (to make his millions) which has been bailed out by taxpayers to run a business which has recently caused an 80 store subsidary go into administration and job losses, causing tensions with landlords as reported in the Telegraph.OE was accused of shutting shop before the rent was due .

11.  in 2007 Optical Express became engaged in a dispute with HMRC . This was over a disputed 10.9 million pounds in taxes.

12. Optical Express has been reported in the Which magazine as being the worst performing optical chain

13. Optical Express were featured on tv programme Watchdog which sent undercover  customers into their stores. They accused OpticalExpress of providing misleading information to customers and underplaying risks of laser eye surgery .

The only person that looks like he couldn't perform in his job is David Moulsdale -

Posting losses of 1.5 million this year according to the Herald and having to screw landlords out if rent and possibly customers out of their refunds to keep his so called dreams of success alive ?

Hardly a success story - sorry .

Too right! That guy is a major crim alright

Don't know who in gods name let him lose with all that money from the banks - probably ripping people off at the very least . Disgusting - and to think of all those innocent professionals who actually look up to him . What a facade - the way he has managed to pull wool over people's eyes including bankers is disgusting .
We can't afford to have people like this using taxpayers money to run a business they are not planning to run ethically making landlords and possibly customers lose out so they can extract money whilst the business is debt ridden. It's disgusting.

@Wondering etc

Post on 26th December was not mine!  Someone using my name.

Repeated gossip. Where are hard facts of criminal activity? If there was any truth to these allegations the should be at least a single honest witness prepared to stand up and make an official complaint about Optical Express. There is not one.  What happened to the principle of being innocent until found guilty? I woulld not want most of the above on my jury. I would get locked up for having a drink, having sex with consenting partners, trying to make money, trying to rescue my business,  sacking under performing staff, rewarding hard working staff with great parties, employing 2000 people, paying tax, trying to help peoples sight. Come on i thought this was a decent place to live.

That's why his business collapsed . Because he was running a good business .

His employees and customers must've been so happty for him to have to shut shop and screw people for money like he did and still report  losses .

Who are you kidding ?

I don't call giving young female employees as ex is suggesting the run around so that they don't find out how many employees moulsdale is using for sex-  consensual - I call or a pre planned attempt of emotional abuse of employees who do not have any reason to believe he would not act in the best interests of his workforce .

He must be desperate and also there must be something very wrong with his personal life.

Paying tax ? Optical express was engaged in a multimillion pound dispute with HMRC in 2007 - I doubt moulsdale wants to pay tax !

Sacking under performing staff ? David needs to sack himself then - because he's leading that business into a loss making joke -

Clearly sacking  under forming staff hasn't done David's business any favours .
I don't think he would know a good employee if there was a sign over him/ her with a halo saying ' good employee '

I beg to differ - David has probably treated a lot of people like [***] and now a lot of hardworking intelligent people probably will not ever consider working for him.

Whatever he has done to the employees he certainly doesn't seem to have done himself or his business any favours .

You wouldn't have had to rescue your business in the first place if you hadn't been such a poor leader who though he was probably so above everything and everyone that it was ok to treat probably customers and employees like [***] .

And while we are there - about you trying to make money - haven't you made enough money ? Given the fact that all these landlords that have been screwed by you - all these employees you have no notice to about them losing their jobs and and these customers who seem to be getting messed about for their refunds - is that really how it makes you happy making money ?

To me it would feel like stealing .

Why would someone claiming to want to save people's sight wind up having a business on bbc watchdog which claimed the business was misleading customers and underplaying the risk of surgery ?

i am not david. But it is not fair to attack without a single official complaint. Have you ever employed anyone?
