the place I bought it from was

here

haven't tried emailing yet but def don't hold out much hope of a solution.

Once I've found out they're definitely fake though I will speak to trading standards and hopefully get the site shut down, plus will put warnings all over this site.

wannaBe1974 · 11/08/2006 16:44

have sent them the following email

I placed an order with yourselves on 3 August for Fertility plus for men, the order number is 68006029.
The money was taken from my account on 4 August, however, to date I have not received the order. Numerous efforts to contact you on the various telephone
numbers provided, both in emails and via your website, have resulted in me speaking to various other companies who appear to bear no relation to yourselves.
Could you please advise me when this order is going to be delivered to me.
I am now seriously beginning to wonder if your company actually exists or whether it is just a scam to obtain money by deception.
If I do not hear from you by close of play on Monday, I shall be contacting Trading Standards with a view to having your site closed down for breaching
the trade descriptions act.

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 16:51

very good e-mail and too bloody right.

Sexonlegs · 11/08/2006 16:58

Excellent message. I think that makes it clear!

wannaBe1974 · 11/08/2006 17:00

well it's not going to get me pregnant but at least i can shout at someone about it. And if don't hear from them I will contact trading standards and poss the police as well?

ccpink · 11/08/2006 17:38

Hi
sorry to just jump in mid way through a conversation. We've been kind of trying for over a year but my periods are very irregular.The GP gave me a drug to start them after the pill, which worked but now all over the place. I've just been referred to the gyn't for more of the same and possibly Clomid. I just wondered if anyone knew if they give Clomid before testing the man? Or will this hod us back another few months?

Sexonlegs · 11/08/2006 17:38

Exactly! Bloody buggers! Hope you something back from them soon.x

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 17:55

Think they like to test the man before, my DP was tested before we were referred.

ccpink · 11/08/2006 17:57

Thanks natty, I got that impression from other peoples' messages. Seems strange they haven't mentioned him and have sent referral?! How long did you wait for the appointment?

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 18:13

From the letter from my gp going off it took 3 weeks then the hospital contacted me to double check i had, had all the relevant tests done and to fill in a questionnaire. It then took another 7 weeks to get the appointment through then the appointment was 6 weeks after that so in total 16 weeks, i was stressing big time and was thinking about going private but could not really afford it.

ccpink · 11/08/2006 18:25

Jesus! 4 months, think I was being a bit optomistic in my head! Plus, my dh will have to get tested first as well. I'll be 6 months then. Best to try and forget about it for now I suppose - if that's possible!! Thanks for your advice. I hope it works out for you

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 18:35

Thanks, but remember some people do get seen quicker than this, i am from oxfordshire and our clinic covers lots of areas. Do you not have periods at all? When my DP got tested the doctors just gave him a pot a and told him what to do etc, then we dropped it off at the hospital and we had the results within 7-10 days so it does not take long for that to take place. Maybe go back to your gp and see if he knows anything about waiting times etc and see if he can organise the sperm test for you.

I did also have about 7 accupunture sessions to take my mind off it in the middle but gave up as i could no longer afford it as i wanted to join the gym and get fit. In the time i have these sessions i did have two shorest cycles - 35 days and 42 days. Not sure if it was from this or just my body trying to work properly but we will see how long it takes this cycle as i have not had any sessions.

sorry i seem to have rambled but stay on the positive threads because we are a nice bunch and can cheer each other up when we are feeling down.

You go wannaBe!!!

That email sounds spot on.
It's worth contacting the police...even if they can't/don't do anything they'll still log the complaint and then can refer to it if anyone contacts them about the same compnay.

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 18:37

Sorry just re ready your first message - says you have irregular periods, has you gp run blood tests for you?

coggy · 11/08/2006 18:39

Flippin' heck....jist went to the 'conception' page!!!

You've been busy Natty and Trace!!!!!

Going to go and have a read.

coggy · 11/08/2006 18:41

I see what you've done Natty - good idea...get them to do the hard work!!!!

ccpink · 11/08/2006 18:43

Hi - I'm on day 50 today! After taking the hormone to start them again they were ok for a few months and then a bit hit and miss. I've had loads of blood tests, which were all normal - whatever that is?! Lately he wanted me to have blood tests on day 3 and 21, I did this, but because I'm now on day 50 we've given up on that!GP said gyn'st would give me hormone again to start period, then clomid.
I'm also trying reflexology but have only had two sessions so far - expensive though

wannaBe1974 · 11/08/2006 18:57

I was just wondering - has anyone heard from Piffle? I just had a look at the antinatal threads to see how she's doing and she hasn't posted there for a while so am hoping she's ok? I don't want to put a message on the boards in case she isn't and doesn't want to post or anything.

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 18:58

coggy - well i thought it was best they post about themselves just in case i post something incorrect about someone and upset them.

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 18:59

Wannabe she has changed her name to PrifflePsomething can't remember but if you go back and look you will see who i mean.

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 19:01

ccpink - you on the right step and yeah it may take a while to get seen etc but at least you have been reffered and something is being done. We will all get there in the end some of us at the begining of the journey some in the middle and some hopefully at the end but the way i see it is that i have got to meet some lovely people who know how i feel and am sure i will meet many more in the months to come.

coggy · 11/08/2006 21:38

Natty...good thinking...I did wonder about any that we didn't know if something had happened....

wannaBe...I've seen Pifflesomething or another somewhere today I'm sure.

Babymad4num3 · 12/08/2006 00:25

Has anyone been to their GP after TTC over 1yr, if so what did they say as i will be going GP on monday about the TTC thing (if BFN)! What kind of test do they do? And what do they ask or tell you?

WantAbabyNOW · 12/08/2006 01:34

Wow.. what busy little bees we have been on mn!

I am most i pressed with your email to that crap company wannabe. If this helps that is not the website I saw them available on though... I saw them on www.marilynglenville.com/supplements/fertility_plus_women_men.htm

I have no idea how to do links... sorry. when in doubt, cut and paste.

Hope you are all starting to cheer up. I have taken my first whole metformin tablet without regurgitating it last night. Hooray for me! Am not planning on going too far from the bathroom though as sure will need it at some point!

Ahhh, the stress of ttc. I am obsessed like so many of us are. My house looks like a cyclone has come through it, and still I sit here tapping the little keys on my keyboard. I so have my priorities right!!!

Am supposed to go to THAT baby shower today. My mum is going so maybe I can get out of it.

Hope everyone is feeling a lot better. If feeling down try to imagine what sperm that is odd shaped looks like. Also picture them swimming around chasing their tails. These images in my head are continually making me laugh this weekend.

Oh btw... baby comp......looks so cool but so expensive! Google it if anyone is interested.

coggy · 12/08/2006 08:50

The exctiment's over!!
AF has started this morning...but I feel fine...not sad...not disappointed...fine!

I guess like wannaBe said...when you've been trying for such a long time you just accept it and, although I have really enjoyed the last couple of days and the vague possibility of a bfp, it would have been a mini-miracle with such a short lp. I've had over 70 AFs and BFNs since ttc....so it's just normal!!!!!

Just realised this is beginning to sound like a fairwell speech!!!
(It's not!!)

The really good news is that my lp has gone up by one day...which to me is very exciting!!!
And I will DEF get that long overdue appointment with my consultant (at last!!)
Trust AF to come at the weekend so I can't phone straight away!!!!!

At the risk of this post sounding even more like a farewell speech (which it truly, definitely isn't!!!) I just want to say how fab everyone on here has been....it so fantastic to go through the ups and downs with people who are doing it, and obssessing over it, too!! Wouldn't get so much detailed knowledge and support in RL.
You make me laugh, cry (?!) and blush at some of the TMI bits on here!!
And I consider some of you very good friends....even tho my DH says it's sad talking to "Vitual People"!!!!!!!!

Right...I'm off back to bed....it is Saturday after all!!!!!!
