I sent my iPod off to these people about a week ago and i've been ringing and e-mailing them to see whetehr they've recieved it and they wont reply.

Does anyone know anything about this company, whether they're scammers or not?

They will probably be able to fix them or send them to apple themselves then sell on ebay :D

Thats what i would do if i was the secret mastermind behind the scam

just read on their site how your ment to send it. i assume you sent it by Royal Mail Special delivery or what ever it's called? if you did you can use the number that the post office gave you to track your parcel. they can tell you if it has got there and been signed for, if you didn't send it by this method i have some abuse for you :) but not sharing it till i know the facts.

Even if they say it has been delivered it's no guarantee.

Done that.

And it says 'Delivered'.

My mum has sent them an e-mail anyway making it very clear that if this is a scam she'll be 'round their HQ with a wooden spoon.
