If you are seeing Airy Dress advertisements......

Which name do you put in on FB, MerylStreep?
Is it Shein Fashion Group?

Thanks for the link, MerylStreep. I got straight on, too..

Maybe those of you who are on FB would like to add your weight to the fight. But don't mention a country in the Far East. Nudge nudge wink wink ?

I meant to add I've written so much about these sites I know where to look ?
I saw the post from GN asking posters to report. Don't hold your breath. I've reported several times.

I hope this link works. written-with-love.com/online-shopping-goes-wrong/

Oh goodness!
Is there anywhere we can shop?

I just got straight into it, MaizieD

My next warning on FB will be a lifetime ban. Why, because I've been scathing about these sites. This one that's mentioned here steels photos from a site called Lulu's.
Perhaps if more people joined us on FB ( the scumbags favoured market place) something might get done.
I'm not bothering to fight for others anymore. We all have a voice ( or fingers ?)
For those who want to know who's going to rip them off look at a site called Written with love it lists all the scammers who want to take your money for crap clothing. Many don't even receive the crap.
GN say there is nothing they can do about these adds.

MerylStreep. Can you explain a bit more about this post.

I tried to access a site called 'Written with love', which appeared to be about these scams and got 'Access denied'.
Have you a link to something about this?

I've read that the companies whose ads show the clothes (often gorgeous, and unbelievable value) but not the models' heads/faces are rip-offs.

Somebody on facebook posted that they'd bought one of those tops that was too hideous to wear outside but made a good pyjama top!

The main ads that appear on the right hand side are to do with google and not Gransnet it appears - so no vetting.

Thanks Phoenix. I have just seen this thread and have been tempted to buy the very same top but will not do so now.

Thanks for the heads up. New Chic adverts are everywhere. Sort of thought that if they are showing up in GN they must have been vetted. That doesn’t appear to be the case.

Not received Phoenix.

Phoenix, I’ve pm’d you.

I have emailed the link to HQ and they are now asking me what is wrong with this ad - please tell them!!

Don’t ever buy any clothes made in China.Cheap and nasty material, badly cut and made and all very small usually.
DD ended up throwing two dresses in the bin, not good enough to give to a charity shop.q

Shein, Airy, NewChic - all the same bunch of charlatans with different names. I contacted trading standards about them, but they did not seem interested in trying to stop their deceptions.

They are an utter disgrace. They steal photos from lots of genuine sellers, trying to make a living on places like Etsy. Beautiful clothes, often obviously unique and hand embroidered or embellished in some way, selling for absurdly low prices. But people fall for it and get sent absolute trash. I now never order from any 'new to me' site without Googling reviews first.

I really do think it is shocking that GN has no say in what adverts appear on their site. This has got to be wrong, and it's about time something was done to stop these scammers.

Sunlover

I think I also checked reviews for Shein. They were not very good. I think once again the clothes come from China and returning them is difficult.

I think you have accept there is no returning possible Sunlover.

I have an advertisement for Airy just below your first post Phoenix, so I don't think they're bothered about our opinions at all!

I haven't seen them on FB but it is a disgrace that you are threatened with a ban, MerylStreep for highlighting a problem with what are, essentially, scammers.

GNHQ have been alerted to this previously but appear not to do anything about this problem.

Revenue?

Your right, Shein aren't on the list but Sheinlove are. ?
