You seem to just keep denying it even though people are out of pocket or have had problems on the intimation that they are making it up!
are you referring to Dumbodoggy ?...I think you will find him and Peter have spoken since he made that post and is quite happy despite various attempts from people to put him off the idea. Or are you referring to Vypaulius who I believe deserves further quizzing about what the extra charges were for and why the car was impounded..assuming the car in question was a Porsche which had been involved in an unreported accident. If it pleases you I can obtain full details of what happened as I must confess to not paying 100% attention when it was explained to me earlier.

Well something good comes of it then .... you do seem to know Peter very very well .
No, I havent the time to look either, but I do know there have been complaints over a long period of time, and having spent most of my working life in the freight business, and dealing with many in the Felixstowe / Ipswich area I do know something about the industry

It would be nice if DUMBODOGGY confirmed that.

yeah, I do know him fairly well. Never said the guy is an angel, just not a scam artist. I do not doubt he has p-ed off some people within the industry who even after all this time hold a grudge against him. I also know not all customers are willing to elaborate on details when they are hitting out in anger and crying wolf. I think it only fair if people are going to post up warnings that before casting judgement remember there are always two sides to a story.

is this a case of the denier actually being the person in question, who seems to know so much about the goings on whilst always trying to use the third party.

perhaps if as suggested those with a problem come back (if still around) and tell all, or better still the actual person come in and give responses to all the comments that have been made.

Remember that it can take 10years to build up a reputation and 30secs of madness to lose it all. To then compound it by, according to rumour, not make contact, not apologise, just keep taking the money, and letting "someone else" try to make amends is not on.

I may have a car to go back to the uk, please excuse me if I look elsewhere

if this is kosher then I have a slightly battered book on sales and marketing that I will personally send to the individual concerned - except he only has a mobil number and landline on answerfone so have no idea where to send it in accordance with Distance Selling Directive.

are you trying to infer that I am Peter ? I can assure you I am not and if you would like to message me I will be only too happy to point you in the direction of my own website which has been supplying kitchen appliances in the UK and around the world with many happy customers since 1997 where you can verify who I am. I can also point you to another forum down under, with a long list of commendations from people I have supplied there (plenty of posts by me on that forum too...totally unconnected to car shipping)

I came across this forum by accident (originally in search of more Australians looking for appliance advice) and read what people were saying about someone I have sent many customers to over the last 5 years without issue. I am very certain from the numbers I have sent that if this man was a scammer I would have heard a complaint from a few of them by now. It was never Peter's idea for me to post on here, in fact he told me last time not to bother when I told him what I had read.

He has no interest in posting his defence in an internet forum, whilst my entire business is web based and I have been computer literate for many years, Peter has not. I spent many a time in his office trying to show him how to get around the internet and gave up quite a few times too. Whilst the internet may be an every day part of your life please open your mind to the fact that it is not for others. Peter is old school, if you want an answer to any specific questions you have from from him leave a message on the mobile number or with the person who works at the office on his landline number his communication skills on the phone or face to face are his forte not by email or via the web (I called the land line number this morning at 10 and it was answered immediately no answer phone).

My responses to this forum are in no way an effort to market automovers. It is just as I have said..someone sticking up for his mate when all around seem to want to knock him down, some for reasons they seem so keen to keep to themselves. I am quite certain that Mitzyboy would hear no good about Peter since he has encountered him through Peter's ex business partner and I have explained in the previous post why they would not want to say a good word about someone who pulled his business from them

Hi guys,

I have to admit, on wednesday night I. Didn't catch a wink of sleep having worried myself to death after reading the forum!

I can however say the Peter did call me first thing in Thursday morning after my email to him expressing my concerns.

I have to say Peter has been great, Peter send me some details of some of his old customers who I did in fact call, these were not made up customers as he sent them over very quickly and they hadn't a clue who I was or why I was calling but they put my mind at ease.

Peter then gave me a number for the eastern European driver who goes by the name Luca who happened to be in the UK when I called him, he too didn't gave a clue who I was or why I was calling, everything seemed to stack up and Luca told me he has been moving cars for Peter for over 12 months and has not known of any issues.

If I am wrong I am wrong and it will be my loss! In fact the guy that I have bought my van from in Malaga also used Petes business in June to bring the can to Spain from the UK, he had no issues, in fact he was over the moon.

I am more than happy to put my business his way. He seems proper to me.

Cheers

Dave

Can I make it quite clear for good orders sake as you are making incorrect assumptions ..... I dont know "Peters" ex business partner so I'm not sure where that comment comes from, and no one has pulled any business from me, whatever that means. I have no particular interest in hearing no good about the man, I only go on what has been posted here on the forum by people who have had dealings with him, and what is freely available on the internet which he chooses (as you said) not to address.

I think you misunderstood what I typed Mitzy. You said in an earlier post a company of which you were MD had contact with Anchor Euro Transport. Anchor used to ship cars for Peter and it was them he fell out with and took his business away from. I presumed by mentioning their name that was where you had heard bad things about Peter.

As for FRAUD-WATCH WORLDWIDE, they have now been asked to justify their posting.

People using the internet to bad mouth a competitor is not a new thing and as I said to Peter the other day reinventing your company is not the solution as it will only serve to reinforce opinions. Peter knows the business quite well from what I see.

As you all say his communication and marketing skills could do with a little fine tuning but saying that I would rather do business with someone who does a good job, than a company which merely does a good job telling me how good they are

Not a problem
Although when I mete Peter Greene, he was a director of Anchor Euro Transport. Iirc the Anchor Euro that exists now is not the original one of East Anglia Origin as it was dissolved

Anyway, not important now I guess

I have to say I am a little confused at your comments about Peter. If he is a decent bloke who is not a scam artist can you explain why that from the moment he takes payment from you he doesn't answer any calls, why his PA gives out a false address when you try and contact him and why he ignores emails? Everything about the bloke is dodgy as hell! As with numerous other unfortunate people he has ripped off I would dearly love to meet him face to face to discuss him paying the money he owes me, but as he is a con man who hides like a spineless coward that is hardly likely to happen now is it? I have no doubt that he has moved vehicles successfully from one place to another illegally and has a few happy customers who have no idea that he transported their vehicles without insurance or having paid the correct taxes. I for one can speak the truth as someone else who has been ripped off by this despicable, cowardly excuse of a man. I would happily assist Fraud Watch Worldwide in justifying their post, absolutely no problem. I have read posts on other sites eg (shiply.com and ripoffreport.com) warning people about using Peter Green. They state that he operates form Puerto Banus and that some unsatisfied customers are looking for him to voice their disapproval of him. I hope they find him. Avoid him at all costs.

You are absolutely right there are two sides to every story. If you want a good story have a look at the thread on this site for carstospain. This was one of Peter Greens other scam transport companies. My view after reading it is that he has evidently been ripping people off for years. I wonder what he will call his next company? How you honestly try to defend someone like him is unbelievable. If he has nothing to hide then why does he?
