Thanks for visiting Trustpilot. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to leave a review here anymore because the company’s website has closed. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

As others have said, this business (or whatever it is) sends huge volumes of spam emails.
Legit businesses do not behave in this way so it should be a huge red flag to anyone thinking about dealing with whoever is behind this mass spam operation.
Update 27/10/2025 - My email address is NOT a limited company email address. So their strange justification for their massive spam operation "makes no sense" (to use their terminology).
Just spam. Already reported for illegally getting around GDPR
07/11/22 edited 27/10/25 Several years in a roll this organisation bumping my email. Never purchased products or services with them. Before I decided left a review I have contacted them and notify do not send me anymore emails. Furthermore I did try to unsubscribe but look like its doesn't work and for this look like a scam.

They flagged my previous review saying NOT A CUSTOMER - READ REVIEWS FROM 79 CUSTOMERS ON OUR WEBSITE. They are flagging everyone but unlikely for them reviews will stay forever.
Just be careful to visit their website as its smell of scam while they are claiming about positive reviews.

NOT A CUSTOMER - READ REVIEWS FROM 79 CUSTOMERS ON OUR WEBSITE
We do not have any record of a previous unsubscribe request from you however we have now unsubscribed the email address from the mailing list.
We are legally entitled to send marketing emails to limited company email addresses. We do not require prior consent. The ICO helpline on 0303 123 1113 will confirm.
More than 1,000 business owners, managers and advisers have booked onto our workshops in response to marketing emails whilst many others have unsubscribed without any difficulty. Our customers would not appreciate paying five times as much for training just so that we could replace emails with Royal Mail or Google advertising.
Constant Spam email from these guys.
***** Update 30/10/2025 in response *****
I posted this review over 3 years ago, and I *was* receiving constant spam email from this company, which, you are correct in saying, I was NOT a customer, I was a potential, prospective customer, hence spam.
Furthermore, I was NOT a limited company at all.
I had to resolve it myself via my hosting company to block emails as nothing else worked, but stand by what I recollect which was that the emails were persistent and relentless.
Spam emails,
I did not sign up to receive such messages.
I have received a few & refuse to email them back to confirm my email is a working email address.
