I wonder what happened to these poor people?

You may remember me from the original thread.

My daughter and myself bought the Hull franchise and lost 22k before it even got off the ground. The franchise agreement stated it was a Ladies only 'Private Hire' business, but a few days after we signed up Pink Ladies decided they were removing all their plates and going unlicensed.

On this basis we decided to pull out and sue for breach of Franchise Agreement as it was no longer 'private hire'
Our case was progressing well when Pink Ladies went into administration ( the first time !!).

My daughter has just telephoned me this evening to say while I was out I've had a phone call from a lady in Cardiff who has recently purchased a Pink Ladies franchise license and further spent another 10k on marketing , but the business is not going well at all and she is being hassled by her local council in Cardiff re licencing issues.

Apparently Tina ( one of the PL Directors), has told her that shes not running the business properly and thats why shes losing money... where have I heard that before.

This lady found me on Companies House website and was calling to see how my franchise was getting along !! Poor woman was completely unaware of everything that has gone on before.
She would not leave her name or number but has promised to call back on Saturday to catch me home.

So looks like PL are trying to rip off more people for Franchises.

If you are going to spend £10/20k on anything, surely the first thing you do is google it. Do that and all the nasty stuff will appear.

Only if you go to page 3 or 4 if you google pink ladies the first page is mostly their own websites/franchises etc

If you put in 'Pink Ladies Taxi' the link to the Warrington Council press release is 6th, and this thread is seventh. \:D/ \:D/
