TIMELY ADVICE AND A WARNING TO ALL CLIENTS ....

... for your own protection and information please please take a couple of minutes to read this.

The information below is for everyone who is looking to book a kissagram, stripagram, stag or hen entertainment.

What is the problem? There is one agency who have several websites and they are trying to cause problems across the country with other agents' bookings.

Who is this agency that is causing problems? This agency is called Leisuretime Ltd (and sometimes Horsham Entertainment).

What are they doing? What they are doing is taking the phone number of enquires that they get (they have an enquiry form on email which requires a phone number to be provided. Otherwise they do a 1471 on telephone enquiries and take the phone number that way). Then later on - sometimes a few days before the booking, sometimes on the day and sometimes just an hour before the booking is due - they phone the client back. Leisuretime Ltd then confirm with the client that a stripagram is booked and then pretend to be calling from the agency that the client booked with. Sometimes Leisuretime Ltd pretend to be the agent, or sometimes they pretend that they are the driver or the stripagram, and then they inform the client that the booking has had to be cancelled. Leisuretime Ltd assure the client that any deposit paid will be refunded and then give the client a phone number for Leisuretime Ltd telling them that a phone call to Leisuretime Ltd will guarantee them a stripper.

At this point most clients are totally unsuspicious - they believe that the agency that they've booked with have cancelled the stripagram booking, but that if they telephone the number they've been given then they can still have a stripagram. The client then phones Leisuretime Ltd, gives Leisuretime Ltd their credit/debit card details and all the information on the booking - the time, the address, etc.

But here's the problem - the agency that the client (you) originally booked with knows nothing of this. The agency that you originally booked with (and that'd be me!) do not have a problem with your booking, we didn't cancel the booking, we didn't give you the phone number of Leisuretime Ltd, we didn't say that we'd refund your deposit payment back onto your credit card.

But now the fact of the situation is that you've paid two deposits to two different companies and you've got two strippers on their way to your booking. Leisuretime Ltd will also make sure that they send their stripper in at least half an hour to an hour before the actual time of the booking. Their stripper arrives, says that they know they're early but they've got to crack on, the stripper knows your name, your phone number and all the booking details and so - being completely unsuspicious - you pay the stripper sent in by Leisuretime Ltd. But this stripper is stealing the booking. And at the original booking time, our stripper turns up: fully legitimate and fully expecting to fulfill the stripagram booking that they've accepted and fully expecting to be paid for the stripagram.

But the job's already happened. The money's been paid over and the stripper from Leisuretime has taken the money, done the job as quickly as possible (well, they don't want to get caught at the job by the legitimate stripper - fists may fly!) and they've gone.

This leaves our stripper and our agency really angry. It also leaves you really angry as you repeat again and again that it's all our fault because we phoned you and cancelled the booking. We repeat again and again that we didn't - we did not phone you and cancel the booking - it was another agency that did that. You then say that that isn't possible because you only booked with one agency and so the problem must be at our office. By this time I am incandescent with rage. You are insisting that I pay back your deposit payment as I promised to do when I cancelled the booking. I refuse to do this because I never cancelled the booking - I honored the booking and have sent the stripper to you at the correct time (most of the time that this argument is going on, my stripper is stood in front of you - angry, potless and having wasted his/her time and fuel money getting to you!) and I am insisting that you honour your part of your booking with me and pay our stripper their money.

And Leisuretime have got your money in their bank account. Their stripper has got work and has got your money in their pocket. And Leisuretime Ltd are laughing at you and at me.

So how do you know Leisuretime Ltd? Leisuretime Ltd have several websites and more phone numbers than I could begin to list. But their websites are: stripagram.co.uk ; kissa-gram.co.uk ; strippergram-uk.co.uk ; nakedcleaners.co.uk ; dreamstrippers.co.uk ; dreammalestrippers.co.uk and dreamgirlstrippers.co.uk.

So what can you do?

1. Make sure that you have the phone number of the agency that you booked with - as soon as you've made your booking then store that number in your mobile phone so that you have it with you on the night.

2. Some agencies like to put a reference number or 'password' on their bookings. If the agency that you've booked with gives you a number or password then do not discuss your booking with anyone who phones you, or turns up to do the stripagram, without asking for the password. DO NOT TELL THEM THE PASSWORD. Ask them for it and if they can't tell you then you ring the agency number that you've got stored in your phone. Do not pay the stripper until they tell you the password.

3. If anyone phones you to cancel the booking - at any point between you making the booking and the actual time of the booking - then you put the phone down on them and you ring the agency that you booked with. And remember that you know who that is because you stored their number in your mobile when you made the booking.

4. If the stripagram turns up very early and is very anxious to be paid and get on the job quickly - you phone the agency before you pay that stripagram.

The most important thing you can do is to be sensible - I know that this isn't always easy. You are arranging a stripagram for your partner or your best mate or whatever and it's meant to be just a little bit of fun. On the night you're having a good time, perhaps a few beers and you're letting your hair down. But when you book a stripagram, the agent does his work for you and on the night the stripagram is sober and working hard, driving many miles sometimes and we do expect that when you enter into this business transaction of buying a stripagram that you do maintain a degree of competence and sobriety at least up till the booking time.

And also please be careful handing out your credit/debit card details. This agency have been known to make follow up calls and tell the client that there's been a glitch with the payment and they need to take their credit card details again! Once again - if you get a call-back claiming to be agency checking your credit card details then you ask them what they've already got before you confirm those details again. Or just put the phone down and dial that number stored in your phone.

Thank you very much for reading the above. I do hope that none of the information needs to be of use to you because I hope that whoever you choose to book with proves to be a happy and trouble free experience for you.

NB: Leisuretime Ltd used to be called Beechline Ltd. It was when they were trading as Beechline Ltd that they were the subject of a BBC Watchdog report. You can see this report online on the Youtube website - just go to Youtube and search for 'stripperwarning' (one word) or 'asbo entertainments'. When I first put on my home page that it was Beechline Ltd that were on BBC Watchdog, I got a phone call regarding my website from Trading Standards who had received a complaint about me. Trading Standards informed me that there was nothing wrong with the information provided on my website and that as long as what was written was the verifiable truth then I was entitled to provide that information on my website.

What is written above is also the verifiable truth: I can provided backed up testimonies from several agencies and their own clients who have been subject to the scam detailed above: and I thank especially Dave from Sams Entertainments, Mark from Gemini, Frankie from Lips, Martin from party strip, Danny Valentino from Platinum, Troy Stevens, Zacc Harvey, Adrian Doughty and Dave from Adam and Eve. If there are any other agents or clients who would like to contribute their experience then please email me info@strippers-direct.com because eventually we can get Trading Standards or the police to show some interest in helping to stop this situation.
