i sent them an advert that i wanted to be faithfully AND ACURATELY reproduced in their seek directory guide. they did not do this. they printed the advert without my consent, and took away my telephone number from it and also took my correct website address and added one that does not exist, they just invented it! so the ad was in effect completely useless.

i only discovered this monumental error when i recieved a copy of the booklet 6 months after starting monthly payments for the publication. once i recieved the booklet, obviously i stopped the money going to them from my bank account. they then tried to get the rest of their money and have now sued me in court for it. i have to counter sue them to get back what i have alredy paid. the amount i am claiming for is over £1000.00!

i have since found numerous other companies and individual small businesses who have had the same problem with this company (seek.net) and have been bullied by them into paying up. the company is ran by a guy called Alper Muduroglu and his partner is his brother Sami who has been made bankrupt recently with debts of £320,000!! He is not supposed to be involved in any other companies for the next 2 years, but is illegally trading with seek.net. These people must be stopped.

DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH SEEK.NET. THEY ARE USING ILLEGAL TACTICS TOWARDS THEIR COSTUMERS AND AND MAKING FALSE CLAIMS TOWARDS BUSINESSES IN THE U.K.

alper muduroglu response

AUTHOR: alper muduroglu - lonond (United States of America)

SUBMITTED: Friday, December 11, 2009

I'm not sure where all this started I think it began with this disgruntled advertiser (Dave - fab4dave) who I have spoken with over 18 months ago and established the problem that led to him posting stuff about SeeK.net and myself.

The truth is SeeK.net (SeeK Directory ltd) is a Company that was solely run by myself. I was the only Director the Company ever had and the only involvement my brother, Sami Muduroglu, had was as a founder shareholder.

 

I won't go in to the weaknesses or strengths of the Company as being honest I could post anything up here and as the comments are not vetted and very difficult to remove it would not really count for much. They are only my views.

 

For anyone who wants actual details about myself or the Company I would suggest contacting the official receiver as SeeK was forced in to liquidation after 9 years of trading due to bank funding being pulled. If details are required about complaints regarding the company or myself I have checked with Trading Standards and they had received 3 complaints during our 9 year history which I would estimate brought in over 15,000 paying clients. They will be able to verify this.

 

I did give my personal email to forums such as this as I have no issue with people complaining if they feel aggrieved, but I never received one email. If any businesses did not generate the business they were expecting I am genuinely sorry for that, I know myself how difficult it is to set up and run your own Company but I never knowingly mis-sold and if I was guilty of anything it was a lack of Customer Services and over aggressive selling tactics which as the MD ultimately has to be my responsibility. Anyone who suffered because of that I sincerely apologise.

 

This is not a response to try and alleviate blame as if my products did not work for certain advertisers then I have to accept that and can only offer my apologies but the material that has been drawn to my attention is just factually incorrect.

 

Regards

Alper Muduroglu
