I received a phone call back in 2022 asking if I wanted my business to appear in their 'charity magazine' I agreed at the time then gave birth a month later, didn't hear anything back from them. No invoices, emails, phone calls or anything but last week received an email from a debt company saying they are taking me to court! Absolutely avoid this fraud company!!

Absolute scum bags that need locking up! Tried getting £713 off me via their debt recovery company DRC. If it wasn't for me being suspicious and googling them I would never have seen these reviews! Thanks to those that left reviews as they helped me realise it was all a scam! I've contacted action fraud and some other companies and have filed reports! Please don't pay them a penny, luckily I didn't!

I’m a victim of best solutions with the kids with cancer scam . Then he phoned again , same guy saying they were working along side the police about good and bad business . Now I have DRC on my case on a weekly basis demanding £700 and threatening me with court action .

This company tried the same trick with me for my old company Drainwest followed by a phone call today to say that the publication was ready. I had repeatedly told them that I am not interested, however they change their contact details to hide . They need to be locked up . I can't wait to get an invoice for something that I haven't requested .

This is a scam. Do not fall for it. Another linked scam is DRC Debt. Keith is one of the call operators. The booklet is fake. Do not pay them. Call Fraud Action. Absolutely disgusting that these people are getting away with it in the UK. I hope these people read these reviews and are ashamed of themselves. This is a crime and as such passed on to the appropriate parties

Hi all, I am so sad to say that like you guys I have also been a victim of this scam I received a call and was told I would be helping poorly and dying children if I donated £298.80 in return they said that I would have my advert in a magazine. Thank you to all the people who have already commented on here I did not give any money. I never agreed to pay the money and was told I would receive information in the post, instead I got an invoice. I have contacted Action Fraud as one of you suggested and they have been great I highly recommend it. PLEASE BE CAREFUL X I have definitely learnt my lesson :-(

Cold call received from 07537 149219. I asked them to email some info to me but they seemed more interested in writing only after something was agreed. I would be more interested in advertising my CIC and told them I would not agree to anything over the phone since I had been stung by the police magazine scam. He said he would leave it with me and hung up.

scouring the internet and they found my number where they were asking to donate money to childrns charity. They are cold calling you, marketing and phoning you with your permission to scam money from you. I called their HQ who wasnt helpful at all. Like the caller, the other guy claims they were not marketing. Phone random business numbers asking for money is marketing.
