Title: Flat Squirrel Bmx ... AVOID !!!!!
Post by: Lenny-Lentini on February 20, 2016, 01:34 PM
'Ello Brothers

Recently Jan13th Ordered a Geisha MTB Freecoaster from Flat Squirrel Bmx

Still hasn't arrived and they aren't answering any messages even though I have an account.

Disappointing cos they had a professional site with some bits on that no-one else really stocks.

I tried the site Yesterday and it looks like it's been shut down.

When I got order conf' on email it flagged up as not passing 'Fraud Test' by Hotmail

Don't waste your hard earned cash Brothers ... AVOID

Flat squirrel is the scourge of the flatland world sadly, just have a look around on Facebook or any flat forum and you'll see it  :(
He is notorious for not having things in, taking money then either not getting it in or taking forever to get it.  Hassle him by email and be persistent, get your bank or however you made payment involved if needs be and you should be able to get your money back.
Go to flatland fuel for rare freecoaster stuff, they are legends

The bloke's a wrong'un from what I've seen, there's a multi page thread on globalflat about him & I've heard stories of people getting fleeced for a number of years now, I emailed about a frame & got no reply so I left it.
There's been an mtb geisha on feepay recently L

I've dealt with this tool as well,3 months of arguing,threats and empty promises and my order finally turned up.Wrong parts.So I sent them back and demanded a full refund.Which took another 4 weeks.The lad is still "selling" parts on Facebook groups,he's a criminal.Looks like the website doesn't exist anymore but he has another Facebook page on the go as well.I was in touch with some of his customers who said they'd been diddled out of a ton of cash.
