Just an update: We are involved in litigation with IME (UK) Ltd and have a hearing date set for August. We would like as many peope as possible to speak to us and provide a statement about how you were approached by IME (UK) Ltd (or IME Ltd), how you were sold their services, what was said in any meetings and any information you have about whether any NHS trust have even heard of them. Please either get in touch with me by replying to this or contact legal beagles and they will put you in touch with me. Many Thanks.

Hi there, I have a client that is in the same situation with their new entity; was curious about how the court case went? They are doing exactly the same things as I read about on this thread.

They have been successful in their claim. They attended *a mediation and ime have agreed to withdraw their claim. Accordingly the Court hearing listed for 18th November will not proceed.

I would therefore recommend that you do not pay any money to this company and to put in writing your belief that you only had a fixed term contract and that you have no agreement with any other company and will not pay any money over.

*

Further I must advise that it has come to my attention that IME(UK) Ltd is now assigning contracts to Online Marketing Services Limited.

*

I will keep you updated with any other proposed plan of action with regards to the police and other regulatory bodies. If you require any further information then please do not hesitate to contact me.

Re: Internet Media Experts - B2B company - NHS Intranet Advertising

hi guys just signed up to let you all know about our situation. first got contacted on the 14.10.2014 by internet media experts uk ltd, exactly the same as everyone else, all the same promises, i must of told the sales rep 15 times i was not interested in auto rolling contracts, his reply was because of crossing out the standing order and paying in full, was basically given notice of cancellation in advance, never any sales which doesn't surprise me, after finding out from friends that work for the nhs and have excess to the intranet, they couldn't even find anything to do with that website.

today 19.01.17 received a very detailed letter off commercial debt recovery stating i have 5 days to pay there client or legal proceedings will follow, one quick search later and find out that company is dissolved. did ring them but wont bore you with the full convo but in short, when i told her about it being illegal to pretend that a company is still active when it clearly isn't, she said please hold and ill get my manager, she then shouts across a room that had a dog barking in background, sounded more like a front room than a office, a guy who wouldn't give me his name, said sorry wrong letter head has been used here are the correct details and gave me the company reg number for Media Collect Ltd. basically this group of scammers are that busy opening and closing companies they cant even keep up with which company to intimidate you with.

i've read through most of the pages on here and still cant find any one who has been took to court, but if i've missed the post, would love to hear of the outcome.

my solicitor tells me i could easily with all the evidence take them to court, which i really want to do, not for the money but to help others not fall foul to theses scammers, but just feel that they would just as easily close down and set back up again.

Hello All

We too have had all the same tooings and froings (funnily, no contact in the first 24 months though). Then renewal automatic in October last year, but contract assigned to OMS - same old same old.

I have sent a letter to the debt collection agency saying no contract but I won't be entering into any other communications with them from now on. If any valid member wants a look at the letter I am happy to share through Admin if that's ok (it's a good letter)

We have reported these companies with CAB 03454 04 05 06 and asked for details to be forwarded to Blackpool Trading Standards (where debt collection agency live) and I have today reported this to Action Fraud - the lady who helped me said she wasn't aware of any "NHS" advertising scams but information I gave will be passed to police. I named all companies incl Debt Collection and gave their contact names and bank acct details of OMS.

The call with Action Fraud 0300 123 2040 did take more than an hour (just giving a heads up on the time it may take to make the report) but if it gets these "alleged" scammers stopped or at least hindered and on the radar of the police then it was time very well spent for me.

I do hope more previous or any new members who have been / are affected will be able to contact CAB / Action Fraud

If I can help/assist anyone I am happy to.

kind regards
Chris

Re: Internet Media Experts - The General Advertising Company Ltd NHS Intranet Adverti

Can anyone give me some advice - sorry I know it's quite an old thread.

We signed on the 5th February 2015 with a 'go live' date of the 5th March 2015. We were lied to, told that they had a specific contract with the NHS to repair mobiles and tablets and there were stacks of them waiting to be repaired and this would be an exclusive contract for us to repair them through them. We would also be marked as 'NHS approved' and some window stickers supplied to advertise the fact - plus we'd get exclusive advertising for mobile and tablet repair in our NHS areas.

We refused to pay until we had the stickers, which carried on until 29th June 2015 the stickers kept getting promised and failing to turn up. In the end we just paid as IME then said they would refer to debt collection agency and we didn't want to ruin our credit.

Fast forward two years and out of the blue we receive notification that OMS Online Marketing Services have 'legally been assigned our contract' and we have 7 days to pay an auto renewing contract which we were not made aware of - although it is shown on the contract.

We've received zero enquiries from them, zero 'exclusive rights to repair NHS devices' and feel we've been lied to about the whole thing and now duped into paying another two years.

Can anyone offer any advice please?
