Not one I will be entering

Have been previously caught out and then constantly hasselled by their telemarketers, trying to sell their various products


allio - 4-2-2009 @ 04:31 AM

Me neither imgunnadoit2. These guys hassle me constantly even though Ive asked over and over to remove me from their database. :)


griffin - 4-2-2009 @ 08:30 AM

Not the dreaded Modern Group :o:o , I'm not wasting my time with them either.


spookeynic - 4-2-2009 @ 10:37 AM

the preson who had posted this "comp" seems to be a spammer. look at their nickname,


griffin - 17-2-2009 @ 10:20 AM

Hmm, well when will they learn ringing ppl up & annoying them over & over means we will never spend a dollar with them ever ;);) :P:P:P


pinkyeeyore - 17-2-2009 @ 10:37 AM

Just from experiance be careful with Modern. They can be a bit like Readers Digest and the wine companies.


bubbella - 18-2-2009 @ 03:10 AM

Agreed! Why don't they understand that I enter the comps because I cannot afford to buy it myself............ geez, doesn't take a rocket scientist to work that out! LOL. Yet they still ring and give me a sales pitch, it's these kind of competitions that allow them to get around the "no cold calling" law. By submitting your details to their database, it is considered "warm calling".

Ha ha, I've got news for them..... if they're trying to sell me something I am icy cold, watch out! :o :):)


missymoo - 18-2-2009 @ 03:31 AM

same here - they are sharks and personally I know people who have been majorly ripped off by them.:(
