    What should we do with this forum?

    I paid through PayPal by credit card. Rob said my light would take a while to make. This seemed reasonable but took me past the time I could use the PayPal redress system. I paid just under £100 so my credit card provider wouldn't help. I did make sure that all concerned knew what happened to me...

    What should we do with this forum?

    I wish it was easy to obtain redress in the UK. Trading Standards have no teeth, and one or two complaints aren't enough to mobilize them. Court action costs money and Rob's behaviour suggests it would be a wasted effort. Should you win a case, the loser can still avoid paying you. The tax man...

    What should we do with this forum?

    The last correspondence I received from Lummi was not what I'd expect from someone full of remorse. Let's face it. He has £100 of my money. Multiply that a few times and it's a tidy sum. My advice to anyone thinking of buying an Orb, Raw, Wee or iSticki from Lummi is don't.

    What should we do with this forum?

    I have no charitable feelings towards Rob. I believed the sad stories to start with. Perhaps they were true, but he has been seduced by the idea of money for nothing. His lifestyle on FaceBook must be expensive. I say 'believed'. I was cleverly conned into feeling sorry for him.If he's never...

    What should we do with this forum?

    Sadly, true.Still, if Trading Standards and PayPal get enough complaints, they might act.I make sure I post my experiences wherever I can. I helps shoppers decide on what to buy.There is always the option of court. It costs £30, but if you win you get expenses. Whatever, the 'accused' has to...

    Has Anyone Received a Lummi Order Recently? 18 Months and Waiting...

    I had a message from Lummi a while back asking me to confirm my order and to expect it in July. I had no reply to my confirmation and still have no torch.

    My (awful) experience with Lummi (more than 1 year waiting, lied and ignored)

    That seems sensible. I saw your other post. I'll add to it when I get home.

    What should we do with this forum?

    I'd keep the forum open, together with the warning. There are few places where victims (like me) can discuss their progress in getting refunds or their overdue orders. I think Lummi would like to sweep this sorry story under the carpet. Without a voice for those affected,, I think it will. If...

    Still waiting for my Lummi order made in October 2009. Last 3 messages to Lummi still unanswered. I think my money has gone. Buyer beware. iPhone 4. iStiki. Mount. Torch.

    My (awful) experience with Lummi (more than 1 year waiting, lied and ignored)

    I think it's time for some group action. Is anyone interested? My guess is that Trading Standards receive the odd complaint but might do something if they get a 'batch'. There is money to be refunded, I would think, with the success of Lummi's new iPhone product. That's if anyone is sent their...

    Charging 10180 Cells

    Thanks to all for your comments. I've stayed with my Nano charger. It takes a while to charge a battery but it seems that is an advantage with tiny cells like these.

    Has Anyone Received a Lummi Order Recently? 18 Months and Waiting...

    I carried on trawling the Web after posting here. I can find very little in the way of recent praise for Lummi. I wish I'd seen what I have today before ordering in 2009. I'm quite surprised to find that the major torch selling sites still have Lummi forums. I wonder too why PayPal still take...

    Has Anyone Received a Lummi Order Recently? 18 Months and Waiting...

    I've been waiting for my torch for over 18 months. The last few messages from me to Lummi remain unanswered. I wonder if anyone has actually received an order from the company recently. I can only find negative posts. It seems that Lummi has a new product now. I saw it on FaceBook. That makes me...
