same s the other complaints,i paid for a samsung ue3d6530 which appered to be around 60 british pounds than anywhere else i only paid because i am a barclays customer and it was another uk barclays account,therefore i believed under british law of the fsa i would be safe.ive reported this to the police who have told me the bank account in question was actually under investigation by barclays and in the process of being closed for fraud!if this is the case why as a barclays customer was i allowed to place funds into an investigated account?surely funds to and from this account should have been frozen when they had it under investigation!especially as i paid while the account was under investigation!also why was i not called by barclays apparentley safe banking team to inform me!i reported this within 24hrs of payment to which barclays where not interested,i tried to inform their fraud sqaud aswell who did not care.after a bit of investigation it appears 3 barclays banks in the uk are being used to setup multiple fake accounts for fake websites and barclays are not interested.why are these criminals only using barclays and not any other uk banks?i thought barclays was safe are they not checking fake ids?they tell me how safe they are everyday on tv!they seem more keen on assisting organized crime rather than helping honest customers.could anyone who has had problems with popor electronic please contact the uks bbc watchdog,uk national papers,uk action fraud and especially the fsa as i believe if enough of complain about this especially as we were all allowed to make payments into an account already under investigation(this has been police confirmed)that we have an extremely strong case of wrong doings against us also the papers and public should be aware of the illegal ongoins within barclays especially as they have a new ping it mobile phone bank transfer app thats just hit the uk market!.as for popor they appear to operate as gbstore.co.uk and huses.net,probably many others aswell.please report to bbc watcdog,fsa and metropolitan police,i am also draughting a letter to barclays to which i would like anyone affected to sign and send.many regards stacey

  • Hi Stacy,
    I have been conned out of £201.98p by Popor Electronics 20/06/12 Zanussi ZPG4030X Oven & Hob , paid by bank Transfer using my Nationwide Visa Debit Card , no contact from them Website went the next day , Nationwide will not do anything , after two visits to my local Police , they finally agreed to make out a incident report , i gave them all the details of Popor Electronics , Castle Road , Sittingbourne, Kent ME10 UK, Barclays Bank Accoun No ,There Phone Number , nothing back from the police.
    I think Barclays should be doing more about this Scam

  • Thats the trouble with these big banks , when something goes wrong , they deny all liabity to its customers , when i phoned Nationwide fraud department , they said dont worry i would get my money back from them , then a week later they did a u turn saying it was my fault because i made a bank transfer , rather than a normal online payment , which i think is a loud of rubbish , i used my Nationwide Visa debit card to purchase a item , & i was conned , so surely nationwide & Visa should be doing more to protect its customers against this scamm

  • Hi Stacey ,
    I have emailed the details you gave to me to my local police , i havan`t had anything back from them? i may have to go and see them in person again, I am not sure they will do anything without your address ? I had a phone call from the FSA, after i emailed them , they just wanted know more of what had happened in more detail, & told me other things i can do & contact regarding the Scam.
