“I highly recommend the T h e r e s a c h i n R e co v e r y for their exceptional experience and outstanding service when it comes to the Crypto recovery field. Honestly I’m really amazed by this teams skill in retrieving lost funds from fraudulent crypto investment platform, i had invested a huge amount of funds into this company where i believed my reasons for investing was to save money as well make some profits as they had promised me earlier before i got committed, but unknowingly to me i was dealing with some fraudulent staffs of the company that ended up seizing my investment alongside my profits just when it was right time for me to withdraw, they kept to persuade me to make more investments which i did but still couldn’t withdraw after all. At some point i really do not know what else to do as i felt totally screwed when they stopped responding to my emails and calls. After a few weeks i had a thought to lookout for a hacker who can help me recover back my funds, and this was how i went searching for solutions online, Luckily i found T h e r e s a c h i n R e c o v e r y through a crypto review section. I learned that T h e r e s a c h i n R e c o v e r y can be of help then I reached out to them once via the email contact: t h e r e s a c h i n 1 2 1 2 (at) g m a i l . c o m, i shared the experience I had with the company to them and they assured me of a positive recovery process. I had them provided with every required information leading to the lost of my funds before they went on with the recovery process of my funds. It was quite a smooth recovery process, after a few days i got the exact funds i had invested back to my wallet.. I couldn’t thank this team enough for their professional help, i really do appreciate everything they had done to get my funds back. To anyone out there who seek for some professional assistance or maybe you’ve had similar issues I recommend T h e r e s a c h i n R e c o v e r y to serve you right. they got call/whatsapp : + 1 2 3 4 3 0 0 1 5 4 4 as the number”

“Horrible. We are closing the first month with them-0 jobs made. They want money for nothing. They say we can't cancel our membership. I am shocked. We need to pay about £400 per month for building pack. Money on the wind.”

“ignorant For several weeks, I was unable to log in to the tradeperson app, which meant I could not receive job leads or notifications. I sent screenshots of the problems via email, yet despite this, my initial concerns were not taken seriously. As a long-standing customer, I found this lack of response disappointing, especially given that I was being charged during this period, while I could not access the app or receive job leads. After raising these issues through multiple emails and phone calls, my app was eventually restored, but I am still not receiving an adequate number of leads. Despite my repeated complaints, this issue persists, causing further frustration. Given the ongoing nature of this problem, I requested a refund for the payments taken from my account over the past two months, along with a cancellation of my contract. However, neither request are actioned to date. will never recommend them”

“As a 40-year-old computer scientist, I delved into freelance work to supplement my income. Seeking additional streams of revenue, I turned to cryptocurrency trading as a side hustle. Initially, it seemed promising, and I invested $150,000 in Bitcoin with an investor I trusted. After a few months of successful trading, I decided to escalate my investment to $350,000. However, my world came crashing down when the company abruptly went out of business, leaving me stranded with significant financial losses. It was a devastating blow, and I felt helpless and betrayed. In my quest for justice and restitution, I confided in a family friend, who recommended The theresachin recovery group to me. I gave it some thought before deciding to get in touch with theresachin recovery group, whose work had great feedback and endorsements. Their professionalism and promptness really pleased me, and they offered me hope by thoroughly explaining the recuperation process. After she recovered everything for me, I Was more than willing to review the fantastic work she did. The theresachin recovery group is a great resource for any fraud victim looking for assistance in recovering their lost cryptocurrency or funds.

“I watched an interview on the much anticipated ifsmarket investment and i made the initial deposit, minimal investment of $257,000 USDT. Following that, I received a constant stream of calls from this broker, who attempted to get me to spend more money in the next and subsequent rounds in order to double my profits. Ultimately, I invested USDT $444,000 in all before entirely losing interest in him. He stopped answering my calls and emails when I insisted on withdrawing my investment after six months. I attempted to contact everyone and ask for assistance in order to get my money back, but I was unable. I want to express my sincere gratitude to the entire staff at theresachin recovery group for their readiness to assist me in getting my money back. even though my case didn't meet their minimal standards. Thanks to theresachin 1 2 1 2 (at) g m a i l . c o m, call/whatsapp + 1 2 3 4 3 0 0 1 5 4 4. I can now rest easy knowing that these con artists will start to hear a hissing sound that becomes louder every day.”

“For my job some companies (not all local) showed an interest but do not bother turning up. When questioned why, the normal excuse of still working on a job so couldn’t make it. None of them professional enough to inform you though. Stay away from it unless you want to waste your own time.”

“DO NOT TRUST CHECKATRADER. If there was a zero star option I would use it. Last week I contacted a building company through their website, seemingly vetted as per the claims on Checkatrader's website. Forewarned by the scam outlined below I checked the company's listing with Companies House, only to find that this company which advertised itself as having many years of experience, had been set up just two months previously by a 25 year old chap. His previous company, set up 6 months previously, had been voluntarily closed - I imagine following poor reviews which I found via an internet search. Needless to say we moved on. Checkatrader has continued to trade following the scam we suffered some years ago when we a big flat extension (not) done by Builders London, getting their name from Checkatrader. We read that Checkatrader checks and verifies all companies so went ahead. The company turned out to be operating a scam to get money for the demolishing part of the work then disappearing. This is exactly what happened; we started legal proceedings through the small claims court, aided very well by Which Legal, along with a number of other customers who had been similarly scammed. Checkatrader's response to our dilemma was pitiful. I did a check on Builders London and found that they were under a number of court proceedings. They had listed two poor pensioners as Directors and disappeared completely, so the court cases were unable to proceed. Checkatrade were unrepentant about their claim to have vetted the company, saying that we had no redress for poor service due to the discalimer on their website. Checkatrader actually helps scam Companies to operate their awful dealings. They DON'T vet them properly, as my own investigations of the two companies showed - I soon realised they were dodgy - yet Checkatrader did not. They list anyone who pays them. Trading Standards have reached the same conclusions. DO NOT USE CHECKATRADER. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH”

“These clowns are a total pest. I enquired online about membership and didn’t want to pay the fees quoted. I thought that would be that I’m now getting 2-3 voicemails a day from them despite blocking various numbers. GO AWAY CHECKATRADE!!!!!”

“I asked workman to repair two panels on fence. One completely broken in gale but I was unable to pull out the other. So needed a tradesman. I initially bought one to do myself but asked will I get another if he would do the job. He said he would get panel. Did I mind the colour? I didn’t think there was much difference in fence colour so I said ok. . He fitted my one with horizontal slats, his one with vertical slats, completely different colour. Warning sign I now realise is he wanted cash. Will not go on checkatrade again.”

“Why are there no tradesmen reviews on Checkatrade? It's because they hide how badly they treat their trade customers. I have been a customer for five years, and as soon as they got taken over, the work stopped, but I was still meant to pay a monthly charge. It's not right.”

“It makes me very delighted that I found [ACTINVSTLTD]! They helped me uncover the truth about Expo Company's unscrupulous business methods and helped me get my money back. Expo persisted in tricking me and robbing me of money. I became really agitated and asked ACTINVSTLTD (C0M) for more help. They provided excellent support."”

“A and I Roofing based in Sandbach Cheshire charged my elderly parents for poor quality work on a roof and deliberately kicked tiles down to cause a leak, presumably to get more work. They had been Checkatrade members and had used the Checkatrade logo even though they had been kicked out. This persuaded my parents that they were a legitimate Company. Were Checkatrade bothered? No. Now the Company still operating from same address in Sandbach has changed to A and E Roofing and is back as a Checkatrade member getting good reviews on Checkatrade because they won't allow negative reviews on their website.Checkatrade is just a cover for scam Companies who pay them to be listed. This is the view of Trading Standards and they have previously been investigated by BBC Watchdog. Steer clear of them.”

“Horrendous experience all round. The cowboy roofer they recommended left the job unfinished with water leaking in, and have been told he won't be returning. Checkatrade told us it is out fault as we didn't leave a review within 30 days of them finishing. The people you speak to in customer services are rude, abrupt and sigh and scowl like teenagers when you question anything. Really, really poor.”

“I wanted my hallway painted.I supplied the paint I put the job on Check a trade. I wanted a couple of quotes first. It wasn't a big job, two days work. I had a couple of responses. One quoted double of what I was quoted elsewhere. The best one was from another painter. He came with his notebook to write the job I wanted. Just painting, walls, ceiling and doors. I walk with a crutch, and I don't know if he thought I was in cuckoo land or what! He asked me if I wanted a dust-sheet on my bare floor. I said yes. I thought it was a strange question. I asked him is that not usual to put a dust-sheet down. He said that it would be added onto the quote. I thought he meant that I buy new dust-sheets. He said no, the dust sheets were his. I asked him why the charges then. He said that it would take time to put them down, then pick them back up. I said you are talking about the big cloth ones. Yes, he said. I said, you have to be kidding! No, he wasn't. I couldn't believe it. He charges customers for laying a dust-sheet down then picking it up. I said I have a proper decorators sheet. I will put it down and pick it up myself. He said he would email me with a quote, which he didn't. Probably because I wasn't going to pay for putting a dust-sheet down. Incredible! I won't be using Check a trade again.”
