How to Save 95% on a new iPhone 6? DO NOT FORGET EVER THE CLAIMS THEY MAKE ARE FALSE. They have been made to put UP an exclaimer. Why because they are making their claims and advertising up.
Remember the statement at the bottom of the advertorial.

Madbid passes no test they are a scam group of companies making claims all over the web with false advertorials. DO NOT GET SUCKED IN IT WILL COST YOU DEAR AND YOU CANNOT EXPECT ANY REDRESS.
MadBid passes the test!

After a simple registration, I received my free credits from MadBid. I was now ready to try and win one of the items up for auction. Before I joined, I wasn't too sure how the site worked, but all became clear once I created my account.

I started with a bid on the item I'd wanted for so long… a brand, spanking new iPhone 6. After a relatively short auction, and much to my surprise… I won!

For only £28.22 in total I got an iPhone worth £699!

To make sure it was no fluke, I decided to try and win something else. Much more to my surprise, I won again! This time, the savings were even more startling. In the end, I paid only $79.22 for a MacBook Pro worth £2,000. Very impressive! There's no way that you can find savings like this anywhere else!

Delivery – Having won and paid for the items, I received them a few days later. It was just awesome, from start to finish.

In the end, I was completely satisfied with my experience.

TOTAL AND ABSOLUTE LIES THE CLAIMS THEY MAKE ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO BE ACHIEVED

3 fraudulent transactions. 3 fraudulent companies representing themselves dishonestly. 3 failed claims Swoggi Ebay Amazon.

Do not believe Paypal is their to protect your interest it serves itself and it's own agenda at the expense of it's customers. The chances of them blacklisting fraudulent companies who they have received numerous complaints about is 0 to none. Believe the advertising hype at your peril.

*******@swoggi.com. Juniper Global. Sophora Media Ltd,
I closed my account with the clear expectation that my funds with you would be refunded.

The account was closed by you without any reference to my £50.00 funds

It is clear that the site you are operating is a scam and you are falsely presenting yourself when you are a gaming site not complying in any way with the new UK gaming act.
At no time did you require that I agree with any TC's and having looked at them later they do not comply with fair practice and are therefore illegal.
The Paypal transaction details, from you, stated clearly that before taking any payment I would have the ability to check and reject payment. This did not happen and does not take place with any transaction from you for Paypal.

I have made a formal complaint to Paypal and cannot believe they continue operating with you. I have required a full refund of the £50 stolen from my account and for Paypal to pursue this and hopefully with the widespread complaints against your company Paypal will close your account with you, as they should do.

I have also copied Paypal with detail of the widespread complaints against your many trading names and the details of your scamming of many, many people.

I await a prompt and immediate response, although if the reviews of your company are anything to go by, it may be a long time in coming
Sincerely
Jim

A 100% scam. Protects itself by falsely presenting itself as a genuine auction web site. It is clear you are playing against the house and your credits are being ramped up to the point that you are paying a massively inflated price for items. The advertised items are a false representation of what is happening to items and are being used to advertise not reflect the truth on the site. The many advertising reviews of this site are being self generated and are in no way honest or true. The claims being made by reviewers in supposedly genuine reviews is false and even more so it inaccurate even in it's content.
Paypal protects the site and is comfortable in disallowing any claims against this website on the grounds falsely claimed by the web owners Juniper Global Sophora Media Ltd, Paypal showed throughout this dispute their contempt for customers and indicates their protection to be worthless.
You are well warned to stay right away from this mode of trading as it is clearly flawed, flagrantly biased against the customer and manned by crooks.

Everything I read and look at with make use of leaves me cold with this company. You cannot get a straight answer from them. What they offer is vaguely genuine until you start asking questions that they do not answer. Not to be trusted.
