This is surely a joke???
Any company that feels the need to have T&C like those above covering themselves to such an extent before anyone has even bought anything from them would give me, a potential customer real cause for concern.........reading that would put red flags up immediately and pretty much ensure i wouldnt touch any company with these sort of t&c with 2 bargepoles never mind 1 and take my custom elsewhere.

Its pretty hard to find on the Web site and is under Privacy Policy, but its there !
 
but are their t & c's legally enforceable? They don't seem to adhere to distance selling regulations with regard to fulfilling orders and I am sure there are plenty of other selling regs they don't bother with.
 
I can't believe they actually write things like that on their website! If I went on there with the intention of buying something then that would set my alarm bells ringing for sure! You really couldn't make this whole thing up.

I'd be tempted to find it all hilarious if there weren't people left out of pocket.

I imagine that these would be trumped by the Distance Selling Regulations. They are quite laughable aren't they, pretty much tell prospective customers that Shamey expect customer's to be dissatisfied and take issue with them. Wouldn't make me comfortable purchasing from them

I think theyd be trumped by trading standards as well, and if you make an order by phone you'd hang up before they got half way through their list
 
I found it sad that these two young girls have had a good idea, managed to get a lot of interest in it and seem unable to bring themselves to take on board the advice they have been given to run the business properly. Having now seen pictures of some of the horses that have recently left their "care" I am appalled. It's not just the injuries attributed to the zips on the onesies but the apparent neglect. That is a whole new ball game and I am truly shocked and saddened.
 
I find this absolutey hilarious

"If you are not a customer and are found to be messaging, calling or swaying potential customers you can be held accountable for damages."

I'm afraid that the "Privacy Policy" alone would prevent me from placing an order with this company - they might as well just put a notice up saying "Dont talk bad about us without proof or else!"

Pretty much lol

I have never bought from them, never will and will openly say that I think their products look cr@p, poorly sewn and quite frankly dangerous.

Horses get themselves into enough scrapes, without adding shoddily made lycra suits into the equation.

So Sue me for my opinion guys ;) I am entitled to it through the freedom of speech act so Im afraid that trumps those childish and not very well thought out T+Cs ;) Trading standards would rip those T+Cs to shreds.

The state of that poor horse was disgusting.

To be fair, we don't actually know what advice they have received . . . they are under no obligation to take advice from people they don't know on a forum. Based on their behaviour/the verbage on the website, etc., I very much doubt they are receiving any professional business advice - and, if they are, and they are acting on it, the business professionals advising them leave a lot to be desired!

Does make me laugh.

I'm not a customer of E&L insurance, never have been, but I've heard enough bad reviews (from clients and vets) that would make me 'sway' people not to insure with them.

At the end of the day, if you hear something bad about a company, you're going to pass that on.
 
It was made closed group as when open anyone can see comments etc even the directors from shwmae - one member did post messages she had received from the director and I believe they are still on there. The director was more or less quoting what had been written in the group.

Anyone can join the group, in fact I would think they would rather more peoe did join. There seems to be a few more cans of worms appearing, including the mare in very poor condition :(

That's them, they have 100% positive feed back :confused:

Look more closely - half of it is for stuff they've bought and on their seller feedback they have a neg saying the product never arrived, but it's over 12 months old and so is not counted in the %age figures.
