tollyboy update

Good for you........I sincerely hope it arrives and that your satisfied with it...great shame about the lack of service you've had though, it'll be interesting to see if Richard compensates you in any way.....

 

i too have recieved an e-mail from richard saying the same as above so hopefully i shall also be posting a positive review of a new tollyboy belt very soon.

 

I wonder did someone direct him to the other thread, or maybe his troubles are over, either way I'll look forward to the reviews when you both get your belts....soon there'll be no more:anal: for either of you:anim_32:

 

I have also just this minute recieved an e-mail telling me my belt is ready and will be posted out to me tomorrow wednesday! as richard is going away and any adjustments etc that might be required he will sort on his return . Hopefully i too will be posted a proper report on my latest and most serious piece of kit yet.

 

Excellent news, I'm pleased for both of you that your belts are finally on route....arty0019:

Look forwards to your reviews.....

 

Congratulations to the pair of you.

As you know, I'm tempted by tollyboy, even after the trials and tribulations, so I await your reviews! :character0180:

 

Hmmmmmmm nothings ever as straightforward as you think?:confused0068:

 

Ohhh dear, that sounds ominous? I hope it's not bad news?:tortoise:

 

tollyboyslave......I'm really sorry to hear of yet more *woe* in your journey, I can't believe there is additional cost I had hoped to read that Richard had given you some reduction as compensation for his poor service.....

I can't see this thread getting locked as long as you stay factual, the whole point of this forum and others like it is to get information out there be it good or bad, that way folks looking to buy a belt can make an informed choice as to where they spend their hard earned cash......

All I can advise is stick with it if you can, when you eventually get a belt that is right for you the world of 24/7 chastity in my experience is somewhere you'll not want to leave.....

Good luck, please keep us all posted.

 

That is absolutely correct.

I am one of those who is very interested in the tollyboy experience, so I do not want to see threads unnecessarily shut down. The main reason threads are closed are because I get complaints from members - and this site is run for members, so they win!

Rant on, express your feelings, and above all - give us the facts.

I think it is appalling that anyone gets treated this way when purchasing a chastity device, but it is more common than not.

Hopefully if we keep these threads clean-cut and informative, people will vote with their feet (and their wallets) and these manufacturer's will get their acts together! :sign0004:

Thank you again for keeping us up to date on the experience.

 

WOW....Thanks Mistress Watchful it is nice to hear that this post is being supported and thank you also to everyone who has posted comments showing their support. As factual as possible this ordeal (should have been a happy moment) has just rumbled on and on with so many broken promises and delays coupled with apologies and more promises. The latest broken promises were that the belts were almost ready for collection barring glueing the silicone on and new glue being ordered, then the rear cables still weren,t connected but would be finished by weekend. Then message to say Richard had felt unwell and had not done the work but was going to go to bed with the flu but would be in touch early the next week to work out how much the balance would be with as he had put it a HEFTY discount for all the upset, delays and inconvenience caused. Result we thought what day was convenient to go up to sheffield and collect the belts and check they were ok? we asked, which is what was agreed would happen from the day we first went up to see him and place the order along with our deposits, it was the following evening that we got a message saying that he was now going away suddenly but was posting the belts to us the following morning.......hooray we thought. the next day we recieve an e-mail from someone called paul.....(no surname) with an address somewhere in hampshire asking us to send a cheque for the full amount plus extra for delivery charges as he has the belts to despatch on tollyboys behalf. So here we are again no belts..... someone we have never heard of asking us for money with no way to contact them or the proprietor what would everyone else on this forum do? should we send all the money and hope we get something in return.. if we do get something in the post what happens if it does not fit or is poor quality.....will the proprietor even come back to alter or repair if that is needed. I am mad with the time i have been waiting after being quoted 4-6 weeks max, poor old tollyboyslave has been kept hanging for 4 and a half MONTHS.:confused0068:

 

Allornowt, if I was in the position you describe, I would be looking at either Trading Standards, or more probably going to small claims court. At some point you just have to take the view that a supplier is not going to come up with the goods in a reasonable time. I would certainly not be paying money to an unknown third party.

Have you tried posting on IC or SD about your experience, as I seem to recall someone mentioning that they knew Richard?

 

thanks for the response and i have already approached trading standards which in itself was a bit of a dissapointment as they say there is nothing they could do but they did get me to get in touch with diect/gov who work as consumer direct and after ringing them and reporting the matter they advised me on what course of action was available to me. This involved writing a letter to tollyboy which had to be a certificated postage letter stating that i was giving tollyboytime of essence of 14 days to get the product to me. This i duly did and this was about the time that richard from tollyboys finally returned the calls and apologised and said the belt would be ready asap. I think that these people know just how little protection you have from unscrupulous traders but that it is also very embarrassing having to try to explain as i had to,to a nice young lady from consumer direct just what i was waiting for from tollyboys and what exactly the items were for. I hope this mess is sorted outside the legal arena but i will not stand by and watch myself and god knows how many other people in my position get ripped off. If anyone does have any information that might be of help we are all ears. thanks for the support guys and girls:anim_37:

 

Have just recieved a private message from another unlucky mansion member who is being kept waiting with all the same excuses that we have been fobbed off with from TOLLYBOYs richard davies, only this poor chap paid up front in full INCLUDING delivery charges and now he is left hanging there. HOW MANY MORE of us are there......?please let us know if you are in a similar position(strength in numbers you know):confused0068:

 

this post could just run and run........its just unbelievable what is going on behind the scenes. will keep you all informed as more strange things come to light:confused0068:

 

:character0028:Hooray.............................please let me introduce you all to the first pictures of the now world famous Tollyboy Belt. I finally got a message the same as tollyboyslave that my belt was ready to be posted from an alternative address down south, after all the moaning and problems i decided that i would go straight down there and collect the belt and test it for size etc.............here is a few quick snaps i have taken as soon as i got home. It wasnt a good fit when i tried it on but the lovely susan said she would try and alter it on richards behalf until his return. The alterations required a massive 70mm having to be cut off the shield where it connects to the waist belt and all new locating holes and edging being re-done. It will still need some more alterations slightly but that can wait until richard comes back and can do the work himself. Drove all the way back in the belt approx 150 miles and about two hours travelling time, seems ok but may need waist belt shortening as well. Have to say Thank you to Susan though as she could see i was a little dissaponted when it didn,t fit me and agreed to spend her afternoon in her workshop doing the alterations for me. Richard also was true to his word and gave a discount to me for all the delays and problems. So far I love it and i think mistress will too when she gets in from work. will post more info as i use and get used to it. thanks for all the messages of support/
