I expect poor Ubers neighbours will be delighted at her party set up in the back garden.

Justdancevance · 12/09/2025 10:29

Perhaps Uber will run the FL living events from her garden and charge HO, with dropping numbers they could probably all fit in there.

Appledore is an odd place. Heaving in the summer dead in the winter and locals aren’t really that welcoming to incomers even if you have been there many years. It’s nice to visit but tbh the second homes thing is destroying the village and absolutely pricing locals out which probably adds to the issues.

when we moved down we looked at appledore as it’s so pretty but it’s actually quite isolated and the bus service is shocking so we moved to Bideford instead which is actually very welcoming and a lovely friendly place if less pretty than appledore

I think Uber got carried away with her free builder who seemed to be working very hard on what looked like a very expensive refurbishment of a property with limited rental appeal due to no parking etc. I suspect she was hoping to become an Rachman-esque landlord with a property portfolio as she could see the slide in MLM. Unfortunately for Uber he then submitted his invoice which was for half a tin of Dulux white wash and half her pension (or half the value of Hefty-Mortgage-by-the-Sea). Can her cheques really be north of $150k these days?

The new man who featured heavily at FLP events in summer 2024 has presumably been canned? He appeared in a photo quite a while ago looking distinctly less enthusiastic about appearing as part of her content. I wonder if how she conducts her relationships is similar to how she treats her downline (evidenced by shared messages and reports from those who have witnessed and been on the receiving end of her special brand of empowerment of other women)?

The league tables were published the other day and from memory Uber wasn’t right at the top of anything as she once was, not even in the top ten.

Yet again, completely missing were the Boring Names - what HAS happen to them? I’m keeping an eye on Rightmove as something is up.

I see Castle is trying to rally the troops

She should be showing vetting all her team. She doesn’t want anyone else to go to the police as I’m guessing she doesn’t want her part in the scam to come out. She set up a new company on the 29th July calling her occupation ‘an entrepreneur’

I’m guessing mum will have to be the cook / cleaner again while castle wafts around ‘adding value’ and dispensing her ’wisdom’ about ‘how to launch’

I often think of her sister’s nephews.

Justdancevance · 12/09/2025 12:06

I can’t imagine Ubers earnings now pay for her expensive lifestyle, it will be interesting to see her next set of accounts as her cash has dropped from 238k to 50k in the last ones though this could have been overdue builders bills. I wonder how fast she’s burning through any profits from her last house.

Crikeyalmighty · 12/09/2025 15:33

@Justdancevance I’m a bit baffled why anyone that’s not a decent sized corporate would have £238k showing on the business as cash - usually you would have dividends or salaried out to yourself , unless she has a linked deposit account and is avoiding transferring to herself for tax reasons

Justdancevance · 12/09/2025 17:34

Bloodsucker has over 4m in cash and investments, remember when uber declared she was now no1.

MrsDilligaf · 12/09/2025 17:48

I had a very good mooch around Appledore this summer, hoping to see Uber in the wild but it didn't really strike me as a "holiday" place; it felt more like a weekend away place.

We spotted the house by the sea in real life and on Airbnb - very hefty price wise so wasn't booked for the weeks we were there.

She’s done VERY well out of Forever Living and continues to exploit what she calls ‘prospects’ in Africa

I don’t really watch yawn, it’s just too boring now.

She’s in her forties, no pension, a house in dire need of maintenance.

Her inspiring weight-loss journey, is just one of many enabled by those weight loss drugs. I think castles weight loss is down to a similar intervention although she claims it’s down to celery juice 🤣🤣

YouOKHun · 12/09/2025 20:22

Another coach (first name same as 2Jags, last name same as Miami Vice Don) has put up a Facebook post to say she was scammed this year and along comes Castle to respond to the post and say she is going to pursue the scammer as “it’s out and out fraud”. The coach’s post about being scammed is almost identical to Castle’s post yesterday and I think they are getting their heads together.

Castle’s problem is that she was a co-director of a limited company with her scammer for well over a year, not a customer. If it’s out and out fraud as she puts it and dozens have been ripped off during the time she was clearly bound to her scammer can Castle successfully distance herself as a Co-director given that her responsibilities as a director continue beyond her hasty resignation last week?

There is a clip on Castle’s insta on 24 July which name checks her scammer and is talking about making lots of money. 24 July isn’t very long ago at all yet Castle says she had no clue? Castle also says she gave the scammer cash to get people off the scammer’s back. That transaction in used readies could be seen as a bit shady without applying too much imagination.

YouOKHun · 12/09/2025 20:34

@Justdancevanceyou're not the only one not watching her - in the last two days on the Unlucky Club page every like is from Yawn’s accounts, no one else. It’s not even mid September and now my end of October estimate of when it will all be over seems wildly optimistic. You’re right, it is really very boring and she can’t keep repeating the same old stuff month in month out. Perhaps her personal page has more interaction but her Unlucky Club page is indicative of the real interest.

Justdancevance · 12/09/2025 21:21

Castle is very lazy despite her claims. All her heavy lifting is done by other people. Less and less people are happy to do it (apart from her parents) so she doesn’t ask doesn’t question, which is why she is in her cure t predicament.

Directors have responsibilities and claiming a feather from my sister made me go along with it isn’t a valid defence.

Her late accounts makes me wonder is the castle senior money tree getting a bit bare.

but on the upside, she’s planning a renovation 😀 Daddy castle is limbering up his new knee and wondering how much will all this cost me and mr Caste is clearing his diary to finish his ‘micro cementing masterclass’ and wondering if he will make the Manchester derby match.

i do remember castle trying to explain to her dad how she makes money (when they were in Spain), and for a second his face registered what a load of shit

PieonaBarm · 13/09/2025 05:46

It’s not that long since Mr Castle was driving for DPD. Now don’t get me wrong, a perfectly good job, they’re the most reliable of delivery companies after all, but if Castle was raking in the £££££££££ she claims she is he wouldn’t need to deliver parcels. He now has a business flipping houses/renovations and has been doing various courses to upskill himself, so obviously has to have some form of income. I somehow think he maybe regrets leaving the cops, where as a constable with no aspirations for promotion or overtime he’d be earning just shy of £50k, with a regular income, and have a decent employers contribution pension to fall back on.

Meanwhile the princess of the family has a lovely time spending all day making content for social media and pretending to be a top business adviser

no, you have a website with lots of ‘bleedin’ obvious’ content

Her garden is about the size of a postage stamp. You wouldn’t need too many guests for it to look packed.

Justdancevance · 13/09/2025 17:45

I can’t believe that Castle is telling people to come to her, instead of going to the police

As a director of the company she needs to step aside and tell people to contact the police directly.

She’s claiming all the dodgy stuff didn’t go through her company and her laptop ‘broke’ at the police station.

Dodgy as fuck, someone needs to explain that ‘ignorance is not a defence’

Spongebobette · 13/09/2025 17:49

Wow she’s claiming her laptop broke???

no wonder she’s trying to divert her victims’ attention away from making their own reports to the police

OP posts:
PieonaBarm · 13/09/2025 18:14

Police don’t generally deal with fraud these days (madness I know) she’s probably been told to contact Action Fraud (who collate and pass to relevant forces IF (and it’s a big if!) it meets the referral criteria (which is a mystery to everyone) and even then forces can say they’re not investigating it. Action Fraud was set up to identify trends and also as the fraudster is often abroad/different force area and they’re difficult to pass between forces depending on where suspect lives. The “broken” laptop is probably a guise for her being told to do one and report to Action Fraud

BSintolerant · 13/09/2025 18:21

Castle claims that she’s lost £250k in cash and loss of earnings alone. Can anyone else smell Eau d’Ordure, or is it just me? You’d think a director of a limited company who holds herself out as a businesswoman would’ve exercised basic due diligence at the very least. I hope her company gets wound up and she ends up being disqualified as a director. I wouldn’t trust her to run a bath let alone a company.

YouOKHun · 13/09/2025 18:21

I didn’t see about the broken laptop but this is entertaining. I think it would be easy for Castle to pursue her scammer’s fellow director even if that director resigned on 3 September! The third poster realises Castle needs to do some dirty deletion.

The scammer sounds awful and ruthless (and sharper than Castle) and might decide if she is going down she will take Castle with her by simple demonstrating they were working together. Not hard to do, I’ve already seen (and saved) a clip of Castle promoting the scammer and it’s clear Castle is delighted with the promise of easy big bucks. That clip was posted only a few weeks ago. Long after doubts had been raised with her. The other victims didn’t start a company with the scammer and THAT is the difference. She is very good at placing the noose around her own neck isn’t she?
