Bidrivals.com Not Delivering Won Items - Going Bust?

THERE ARE A LOT OF SCAMMED BIDRIVALS CUSTOMERS POSTING COMMENTS AT http://www.encheres-cents.com SO I HAVE JUST POSTED THE MESSAGE BELOW THERE! HOPEFULLY WE CAN ALL UNITE FORCES AND SORT THIS SH*T SITUATION BIDRIVALS COMPANY DIRECTORS HAVE SADLY CREATED TO EVERYONES SATISFACTION!

Chères victimes d'escroquerie de Bidrivals,

À la suite de l'information ci-dessus citée j'ai signalé chez www.pennyauctionwatch.com il y a plusieurs jours considérant BIDRIVALS LIMITÉ étant DANS LA DISSOLUTION, que je note qu'ELOY a signalé avec bonté dans ce forum de Web pour customer' Ex-BIDRIVALS SCAMMED ; l'information de s.

Pour assurer l'échange maximum des idées et de l'information, et afin de se déplacer expédie franchement pour chercher le plein rétablissement des marchandises achetées et/ou des paiements que nous avons effectués à BIDRIVALS LIMITÉ (pour qui a pris notre argent sans l'intention de fournir les produits nous tout payés !) il serait sensible et très utile si nous tous employons le même forum de Web pour discuter ce problème afin de décider sur la meilleure ligne de conduite de prendre pour résoudre la situation difficile que BIDRIVALS a créée pour tous les nous, que je prévois won' ; t deviennent resolved en tant que facilement, ou en tant qu'efficacement pour n'importe lequel d'entre nous, si nous tous continuons l'information de signalisation et qui réduisons des communications en fragments à différents sites Web à travers l'Internet.

Tous les clients Ex-BIDRIVALS donc sont cordialement invités à joindre www.pennyauctionwatch.com afin de discuter les actions judiciaires appropriées qui pourraient être prises contre le & LIMITÉ PAR BIDRIVALS ; ses DIRECTEURS de COMPAGNIE PERSONNELLEMENT si nous tous joignons des forces afin d'examiner des manières de récupérer les pertes financières nous tous ont soutenu en raison d'être les victimes des activités FRAUDULEUSES scandaleuses et indignes de BIDRIVALS !

Veuillez signaler vos commentaires dans le fil autorisé : Bidrivals.com ne fournissant pas les articles gagnés - buste allant ? - chez www.pennyauctionwatch.com

Now to the English )

Dear Bidrivals Scam Victims,

Following on from the above quoted information I posted at www.pennyauctionwatch.com several days ago regarding BIDRIVALS LIMITED being IN DISSOLUTION, which I note that ELOY has kindly posted in this web forum for SCAMMED Ex-BIDRIVALS customer's information.

To ensure maximum exchange of ideas and information, and in order to move forwards positively to seek the full recovery of goods purchased and/or payments we made to BIDRIVALS LIMITED (who took our money with no intention of supplying the products we all paid for!) it would be sensible and very helpful if we all use the same web forum to debate this problem in order to decide upon the best course of action to take to resolve the difficult situation that BIDRIVALS has created for all of us, which I anticipate won't get resolved as easily, or as efficiently for any of us, if we all continue posting information and having fragmented communications at different websites across the internet.

All Ex-BIDRIVALS customers are therefore cordially invited to join www.pennyauctionwatch.com in order to debate appropriate legal actions which could be taken against BIDRIVALS LIMITED & its COMPANY DIRECTORS PERSONALLY if we all join forces in order to look into ways of recovering the financial losses we have all sustained as a result of being the victims of BIDRIVALS scandalous and outrageous FRAUDULENT activities!

Please post your comments in the Thread entitled: Bidrivals.com Not Delivering Won Items - Going Bust? - at www.pennyauctionwatch.com

Please note that If you don't speak the English language as your primary language you can translate the entire www.pennyauctionwatch.com forum web page into your chosen native languages very easily at http://babelfish.yahoo.com/

Any body tried to contact buysafe.com???
I have been in contact with them and there are 2 responses from them:

The first email:
"I’m following up regarding the disputes you recently opened in reference to your orders with BidRivals.com. We have started the process of working on this for you. Please give me a call at your earliest convenience to discuss the next steps. I can be reached toll free at 888-926-6333 ext 149 or 703-778-4455 if you are outside of the United States."

And the second:
"We are currently working with the merchant to determine how orders that were placed before the website was taken down will be handled. We are an advocate for you, the customer, and we are trying to get outstanding issues resolved as soon as possible. We ask that you allow us some time to see how the merchant is planning to make their customers whole. I will follow up with you by Monday.

If you paid with a credit card, have you contacted your credit card company about the unfilled orders? If not, that's another avenue that you may want to consider as we are working through this together"

I will get back with more information from buysafe. Anyway, you guys should go to buysafe.com and paypal to dispute asap.
I feel sorry for the Mr Smellies, as bidrivlas is multi-coutries company, depends on the law you can get back some money or not, if they declare bankrupt, nothing you can do much but wait for their assets, but i wonder do they have any assets in these coutries or not?! Anyway, contact your lawyer is the best way.

Cheers,

I joint this website (buysafe.com) yesterday and none of my BIDRIVALS purchases are listed or evidently recorded in my purchase history!!! Also I don't ever recollect seeing on BIDRIVALS website a Buysafe Guarantee Confirmation Number after paying for my purchases or being provided with a Guarantee Confirmation Number via email from BIDRIVALS!? Which it would appear that you need in order to search for any missing purchase orders in your purchased item history list, and also to make an eligible claim for an undelivered items if Bidrivals fail to deliver in which case my understanding is that Buysafe give you your money back?!!! Looks like another scam to me!!!

Any comments and or suggestions will be appreciated kidkiss?

The buySAFE logo is now removed from the Bidrivals US site, the logo was presented 5 days ago, and the buysafe page verificated the url www.bidrivals.com as a legit seal.

Bidrivals won't be back within 5 days.

I suspect chargebacks on credit card companies will be difficult in that Bidpacks were in fact delivered and the final value payments are a fraction of the real losses.

Hi Everyone,
Do not be reluctant to chargeback bidpacks if you are entitled to do so. Here is some info to help clarify what is refundable and what is not (ethically ... legally it may vary a bit)

There were three main components to the service offering when purchasing a bid pack:-

1) It can be used to bid in Auctions
2) It can be used in a "Buy Now" purchase
3) It can be used for up to 365 days

For Bids remaining in accounts and unused, they have not delivered on any of these promises.

For bids used in an undelivered "Buy Now" purchase, they did not deliver part 2 of the service.

Only Bids spent on an Auction where the "Buy Now" option WAS excercised are refundable.

Remaining Bids in accounts are also refundable as long as they could be used for "Buy Now".

The BidRivals promise was that there was a "No Risk" option that is available via "Buy Now".

It is the *only* reason I purchased bids at all. I would never have gambled so much money.

Hi all,

i'm afraid Matt is right... they will not be back and we will not get any item anymore, nor reimbursement...
I saw it coming, but too late . I stopped bidding at the beginning of April but they still owe me 4 ipad's, 1 projector, 2 jigsaws, an airport extreme and some small stuff.

Well, they have done their best to collect extra money with extra coupons/promotions before shutting down... to my opinion, they are just thieves.

cheers !

hallo an alle freunde und gegner
nachdem wir uns lage zeit bei bidrivals bekämpft haben sitzten wir jetzt alle im gleichen boot und sind die verlierer

es ist die selbe geschichte wie mit swoopo vor gut einem jahr
ich hoffe für alle von uns, dass der ein oder andere artikel bereits bestellt und bezahlt wurde und evtl so noch jemand was bekommt
ansonsten bleibt uns nur uns damit abzufinden, dass alles weg ist
alles gute

Gday all...as usual, I've been observing all this quietly in the background, but out of respect to all you big hitters, who smashed me up so many times (and you all are probably the cause of this site failing !) but in response to you MR ENGINE2011
i've had some joy with buySAFE...well at least I have been receiving Guarantee numbers straight to my inbox whenever i made a purchase on Badrivals & have managed to lodge about 20 small payment disputes.
Unsure if it works differently in the UK or US - i'm an Aussie (if it wasnt obvious)?!

Typically though (or luckily) i've been on holidays lately & not very active for a month, so all the large bid pack purchases i bought are expired. No news back from buySAFE yet, but will keep you posted.
Paid my $5 fee to commence chargebacks through my banks (well worth it) & also busy lodging claims through Paypal to the retail sum of the undelivered goods...hmmmm not sure about that one but I gotta do something


Well its been an bad experience people, if nothing else-its been awesome to see us ex-rivals unite, (we should have done this long ago I always thought)
... but I will miss ya's !
