Re: Money Transfer Problem,help! by LoverBwoy(m): 7:51am On Dec 27, 2006 |
one of them might be trying to scam you Your money cant be under investigation in the US because you are not the one sending it, the company is sending it you paid by cash to the branch in lagos Is the branch sending the money by check/cheque to the US? Is the remittance guy a one man company/business? why didnt the UK guy send the confirmation of transfer to the dealer directly himself? Go to the lagos branch and complain check the bank details of the dealer again tell the remittance worker to arrange a new deadline date with the dealer are they registered? maybe he has just watched the ABC report on nigeria |

Alhaji, if this is the same Homelink International, then there might be a problem. Nonetheless I can help you file a complain in England. Ask them to give you the UK phone number of their office, as I have lost contact with them after they tried to play game with my money. |

Have you spoken to the lagos branch You should go there so you and the company can call and fax all details to the dealer |
Re: Money Transfer Problem,help! by ALHAJIali(m): 10:43pm On Dec 27, 2006 |
the lagos office cannot do anything at all,i call this man directly and even have to spend almost few weeks before he can fax the so call confirmation to me,i sent this to the dealer in us and its after checking on his bank for weeks that the dealer becomes worried and when i could not come up with any good reason he threatened to put the on sale to the next buyer.as i become so annoyed,arojo now told me that his bank sent him a letter that is his personal documentthat my money may be impounded as the other dealers company is under investigation by us govt.my dealer said he should produce the letter and also give him his bank contact so that they can iron things out but arojo is not playing ball,he is infact he is wasting my time,i ve been calling this guy,he does not call or even send mail at all,i think the guy is trying to cheat me.information is a big tool,that is why am asking for help on this forum,god bless you all as you did. |
Re: Money Transfer Problem,help! by LoverBwoy(m): 11:29pm On Dec 27, 2006 |
contact his bank and ask for his status explaining your circumstances im not too sure if they will give you any of his information but ask for someone/ a number you can call after explaining whats going on |
Re: Money Transfer Problem,help! by LoverBwoy(m): 11:39pm On Dec 27, 2006 |
You can call the financial ombudsman 0845 080 1800 instead of downloading the form from them you can call the Financial ombudsman to explain your problem, give them the full address and contact details of the remittance company and the guy incharge Key Facts about the Financial Ombudsman How to complain complaints for people outside the U.K good luck |

Re: Money Transfer Problem,help! by layi(m): 12:43am On Dec 29, 2006 |
My dear, this is a clear case of scam. Contact the efcc immediately. Afterall they have an office here in naija , i guess. Your money cannot be impounded. If any investigations is going on, your transfer would be bounced not seized. Arojo should provide the letter and it should be confirmed Why should 43auto inc seize your 5k? Was there any term in the prurchase agreemnts that states that you loose your money if you could not pay up. the worse i expect is a penalty except it was clearly written as "non refundable" in your trade agreement. Are u sure arojo isnt a pally wit this us guy because the non refund policy is stupid to say the least. |
Re: Money Transfer Problem,help! by ALHAJIali(m): 11:53am On Dec 29, 2006 |
pals,i want to thank you all,you guys are great.| got police in,police waited outside their office as i stormed the office to ask for full refund of my money,arojo who ve been avoiding me called and talk for 1hr-30mins,an agreement was written for me to get paid next tuesday,it was scam.now does anyone know any reliable means of sending money to united states,that's cost effective,pls advise me l needed to send the money back. |
