The continuing crusade to expose the underhand tactics used to lure (mainly) women into exploitative schemes using the lure of 'financial independence'.

And only one month to go until the next success day. Where forever bots can spend money lining the pockets of those at the top. Not to forget spending another weekend away from the family in this amazing family business.

I need new glasses. (I keep reading 'speaking' as 'squeaking'.)

notsurewhatshappening · 17/02/2019 13:54

Castle did speak but didn't make a big deal of it as she didn't do very well- was clearly feeling rough for whatever reason. I watched it through my bot doing a FB live. She was sitting at a table being interviewed with a top male bot.

My cousin has just started with Usbourne. Is the best thing just to politely ignore her until it fizzles out. Am worried she is going to drag my Uncle into it. He is a pensioner with not much disposable income...

Thanks @DoraExplorer99

I don’t know what we’d do without you!

How many of those top 10 are getting CB cheques, do you think?

I suppose the newest recruits are unaware that these events are very small compared to a few years ago, so still think it’s an impressive thing

Norma27 · 17/02/2019 16:02

Bloodsucker made me laugh when she reminisced on stage about how in the old days they used to sit one person at a table to make the room appear more full than it was. And look how big the success days are now! So much bigger than 20 years ago yes, but nothing compared to 3 or 4 years ago.
They are an embarrassment. Uber couldn’t even be bothered to turn up!

Spongebobette · 17/02/2019 16:10

She sent a helpful video telling minion bots to ‘touch your business every day’

OK then

Norma27 · 17/02/2019 16:27

Ha ha I saw that. Always makes me cringe when they are told to touch their bizniz every day!
There was lots of talk by the top bots about how hard you have to work to succeed. Bloodsucker said she didn’t see her kids for a year. I thought it was family friendly and could fit into the pockets of time you have.

UnapologeticallyUnhinged · 17/02/2019 16:27

Yawn posed with Bestie's kid on work experience saying 'there's a future for him at this company' er no. That company has no future.

Also am I out of the loop? Didn't BFF's husband used to shill this crap too? Where is he? He is glaringly absent on her timeline.

Whiterangey · 17/02/2019 16:53

BFF and her husband split up last year. Shortly after they moved from the mansion into a bog standard terraced house.

Wouldn't be shocked if FL was the cause of the break up.

Whiterangey · 17/02/2019 17:37

Also worth noting that number 12 in the top UK FL bots went insolvent and owes in excess of £50k to HRMC.

Business is booming.

cozietoesie · 17/02/2019 17:41

But then they wouldn't have a business!

DownThePan · 17/02/2019 18:07

Is HomeSchoolBot in the Top 30?

New to all this so I'm trying to keep up! How do you find the top 20 list

Hunbot · 17/02/2019 19:54

Ooh not known who homeschool was till now but turns out she is local to me. Probably my most local high profile bot.

BangingOn · 17/02/2019 20:00

Well if you google for the FL U.K. country manager and then check his Facebook page the list is on there.

UnapologeticallyUnhinged · 17/02/2019 20:24

@Hunbot you are lucky. I live slap bang in the Viper's Nest! I drive by HQ every day 🤣

Paddy1234 · 17/02/2019 20:39

I am also smack bang in the middle of the vipers nest
It's only a matter of time before I accidentally say HI Yawn - how's that diet going?
My area was saturated but it's all gone completely dead - how fantastic

Hunbot · 17/02/2019 20:44

I am down in West Sussex. Any others other than homeschool who are down this way. Is the Midlands the vipers nest
