global visas

key word: Liam Clifford, Imprisonment.disqualifed as directing etc.,

Global Visas update:


This is a report about Global Visas of 28 towers street London (Information given to me by those scammed by the company and their names removed)
this company is defrauding people by promising them a service, taking their credit card details and then they stop answering calls and emails.

all their customers they defraud they find through google adwords advertising

not only that they write their own fake positive reviews and set up fake websites with positive reviews only about their company which then they pay through adwords to show up high in google results when in fact is their own fake websites with positive reviews

the fact that they make up their positive reviews which they put in google is emphasized by a recent review in the Mirror newspaper on the following links



this company makes up fake positive reviews on websites andf then they advertise them in google searches as being genuine websites showing high up in the searches





they seem to be misusing credit card information please read
attached to this letter is a letter from PHIL WOOLAS THE MINISTER OF IMMIGRATION




Global Visas was previously investigated by the people in december 2008, read the article by Eddie Fitzmaurice










Dear Sir,
First of all I would like to introduce myself as a former client of Global Visas myself, I have called them on the phone , they asked for my credit card details and to sign a contract online before checking my documents for a Visa Application, they took a deposit before me signing any contract with them and before them checking my documents to see if I have any chance of getting what I wanted , I was promised a permanent residence in 4 weeks before they checked my documents. I have asked for a face to face consultation with all my documents ready they agreed and they told me someone will call to tell me which documents to bring. After they told me what to bring I become suspicious as the sales agent told me something different than the case worker so I called the Home Office who advised me what they told me is wrong. I cancelled my contract with them after 4 days without submitting any documents and never being to their office. I have filed a complaint with them only to get a reply saying I owe them full fees. I have filed a complaint with Trading Standards but they were completely ignored by Global Visas( see attached letter). I have filed a complaint with the OISC 4 months ago. Global Visas has taken me to court 2 months ago for the unpayment of the 540 pounds left of my full fee telling the court the conversation on the phone when they told me what documents to submit to them was in fact a consultation worth 690 pounds.The list of documents to bring for the applications is a free information offered on the Home Office website. I was never informed they charge 690 pounds for a trivial phone conversation in which they tell you what documents to bring and I was told I would get a face to face consultation where they can see my documents. That’s my story short.
The reason I decided to write you a letter this time is because OISC only investigates my case but they don’t see the bigger picture of this , they don’t investigate the following things:

WHAT IS WRONG WITH GLOBAL VISAS CONTRACTS OFFERED TO THEIR CLIENTS
Global Visas is offering a service that the consumer is paying for( immigration consultancy service).

I have called Consumer Direct about this matter but they told me they dont deal with this, they referred me to Trading Standards. The fact that Trading Standards investigated this matter but Global Visas failed to return any calls or letters to them only shows how dodgy the company is.
This company asks for your credit card details and takes a deposit over the phone before any contract is signed or before they assess any chance of you getting a visa. I believe that is illegal.
The client letter they send to clients ( their contract) is not signed by anyone from their office but they want to enforce it. According to Consumer Regulations 1974 I believe a contract should be enforceable only if signed by both parties.
I have sent you their contract that they offer to clients. In their contract they specify they charge you the full fee no matter if your case is completed or any work has been done on it., I believe that is unfair.
In their clause of the contract they specify they are not liable for any delays or quality of the work done or if any work done. I believe this affects the statutory rights of the consumers as it allows the company to offer a service that is not fit for purpose but the company cannot be held responsible in any way, but the customer has to pay the full fees.
Global Visas says in contract they cannot accept liability in the event that your application is adversely affected due to a change in the law, policy or quotas. This term in their contract allowes them to keep your full fees you paid to them even if something happens and you are not elligible for the visa you hired them to do for you. I believe this is unfair .
I have specified this company is taking me to court for full fees although I have never submitted any documents for them to do a visa application and the contract was canceled 4 days after it was signed. I believe this is unfair.
I believe OFT has taken Foxtons to court over unfair contract terms and I believe this is what we are dealing with here.
http://www.oft.gov.uk/news/press/2009/38-09 at the end of my contract Global Visas specifies Failure to pay any part of our fees will result in the cancellation of the payment plan and the fees will become due immediately. A 24% APR interest charge shall be applied to the outstanding balances . I believe that by offering the payment plan and charging 24% apr GLOBAL VISAS IS CLASSING THEMSELVES AS A MONEY LENDER AND THEY DONT HAVE A LICENCE FROM OFT, that making them an illegal money lender. The fact they cannot obtain a consumer credit licence is shown by the fact that Liam Clifford as a director has been in jail( google liam clifford old bailey and you will find his own press release where he is stupid enough to admit that ) nad in 2008 liam clifford has been disqualified twice for jetcrest and immigration complaince services- check companies house website.
They say within 3 days of you contacting there there will be a consultation and then all charges are due and any work done after that by Global Visas is done for free, this allowing the company to do no work at all after that but you cannot claim any money back from them, they say the money are for the consultation but they can even give the wrong advice during the consultation, they can even tell you you are not elligible for a VISA. I think the contract is designed as a scam .
I have mentioned the above to the OISC but I have not received any indication they have looked into this matter by reading the enquiry letter they sent to Global Visas asking them to defend themselves against my complaint. So on the part of unfair contract terms in the contract of Global Visas I did not see any intervention from OISC.
By no means I am trying criticise OISC now ( I believe they are doing their best), I am just trying to point out that we need to take a broader view to this matter.


WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE COMPANY ITSELF
On the accreditations page of Global Visas they specify Canada Law Society although Global Visas are not lawyers they are only advisers and they cannot be approved by any Law Society.
They use the logo of Home Office on their accreditations page even though I am not aware of the fact that Home Office gives accreditations to immigration advisers.
On their website Global Visas specifies they have overseas offices in Canada, South Africa, India, USA.
I have checked and none of these offices are companies registered for tax purposes in those countries and they also do not have licences and accreditations in those countries to act as immigration advisers.
Feel free to check yourself on the accreditations page of Global Visas and on
http://www.dnb.com/us/ When I have mentioned this to OISC their reply was that this is not under their jurisdiction, then whose jurisdiction is this in?
A UK set up company who has offices abroad which are not licensed or registered as companies, how does that help with the reputation of the company?
I believe that’s why they became a global company, it is easier to scam in other countries which do not have regulations like the UK.
Global Visas UK office is giving immigration advice to people wanting to move to Canda, USA, South Africa , Australia. Still, when people who are willing to do that are being conned by Global Visas and try to complain to the OISC office the shocking reply is that they only deal with complaints from people wanting to come or stay here, for the other types of Immigration advice of a Global Visas UK office you have to go to Canada, USA , etc authorities. Well their offices do not have accreditations abroad so to whom are those people supposed to complain?
GLOBAL VISAS OWN EMPLOYEES ARE POSTING ON THE INETERNET POSTS Saying the offices abroad are not registered for tax purposes and they are stealing peoples money
Please check
http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/global-visas-c261183.html


On the OISC website is only said they take complaints against advisers accredited by them but when you go to them about Canadian Immigration advice given by UK based accredited advisors they say is not their business even though you are a UK resident and you are complaining about a UK based OISC accredited adviser.


I think is hilarious and a paradox the fact that in this country they complain about the failure of the immigration policy and the fact that there are too many foreigners coming here but when the foreigners want to leave and they are stopped from leaving by bogus set up immigration companies like Global Visas the government does nothing to regulate these advisers who instead of helping people leave they scam them and stop them from, leaving when the government is so desperate to stop people from coming and encourage foreigners to leave?
Any foreigner, ready to leave to Canada, Australia, USA, is scammed by Global Visas and stops this from happening but the govern does nothing, even though they are desperate to reduce the number of foreigners in this country.




WHATS WRONG WITH THE DIRECTOR OF GLOBAL VISAS, LIAM CLIFFORD
For starters he is registered on the companies house website as a disqualified Director, I believe he didn’t receive this for best behaviour.

Mr Clifford also seem to have a history of making up his own accreditations, feel free to check
http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/investigations/2002/07/one-false-mover.html


Mr Clifford has confessed also in a press release that he has spent time in jail( good behaviour?). Feel free to check
http://www.england-matters.me.uk/Immigration_2007_10-07-07.htm I quote :

Once, he was arrested and thrown into the cells of the Old Bailey as a result of his previous government job of keeping people outside the UK. During his time in the Old Bailey cells, he realised his country needs help and that "people who work for UK PLC should never have to spend time in the cells for a job well done". I believe he is even trying to turn a jail sentece in his favor by portraying himself not as a conman that I believe he really is but as a hero.

 
Mr Clifford and his company has been previously investigated by the newspapers and has been forced to hand money back to his clients.
Feel free to check
http://www.people.co.uk/news/tm_headline=victory-on-visa&method=full&objectid=20987018&siteid=93463-name_page.html

Mr Cliffords dodgyness is emphasized by the myriad of companies he has set up with almost identical names , he set up one even on his home address with the name of Global Visas UK when his company in 28 Tower Hill London is called Global Visas. He has set up also more than one company who can use Global Visas as a trading name. I believe this raises the question of Phoenix companies.

Question is: why is this company still operating on the market? The only person suggesting this company is a leading and largest immigration company in this country is the companys own Director Liam Clifford in his thousands of press releases but no one but himself backs these affirmations.

At the moment MR Clifford and his company seem to be at the centre of a scandal with his clients amid acusations of them not acting in good faith and in defavour of their clients, charging money for work which hasnt been done or was unecessary, providing false immigration information, deliberately taking money from people promising to take an action that cannot be successful and give misleading information to people, routinely promising people things which they cannot deliver and have no intention of delivering.
all these concerns are illustrated on the following websites

It has recently transpired from the Global Visas employees that Mr Clifford has sacked his entire Canadian Office. This raises the question of whether he sacked them all because they were honest.
Liam Clifford stepped down in 2006 as a director of Global visas putting his wife as a director but if you google liam clifford 2007 in 2007 he still postes press releases on the internet as director , so he presents himself as a director even though he is not. Isnt this criminal offence?


I believe that if Insolvency Services is not given any powers to fine Global Visas for breaches , Global Visas will just continue to make a mockery of the entire system and continue to re-offend because every time they scam someone they only get a slap on the wrist and even if OISC finds their report in the favor of the client Global Visas can still decide not to give a refund and OISC cannot do anything about it, even if you take Global Visas to court and win( which I intend to win against them) they can still decide to not give money back and just get themselves an unpaid County Court Judgement. I believe they are just making a mockery of the system, a company run by a disqualified Director, who continues to scam people even after being disqualified and all OISC can so is a slap on the wrist, not a shutting down of the company.
This company is taking money from people who are students, cleaners, waitresses, people who don’t know how to write a complaint letter, where to complain, they don’t know their rights ,they cant read a contract or the small print, they don’t know where to go, vulnerable people who are easily ignored and fobbed off by Global Visas and Liam Clifford who made a fortune on their back.
Excuse my bluntness but I am not a softly spoken lawyer, I am just a member of the public .
do you think Armageddon will ever come for Global Visas?
I have lots of emails of liam lying to his customers ,I have emails of him blackmailing his customers by promising a refund if they write a favourable letter regarding their company. I am ready to forward all the emails to an email address you have as evidence so I don’t need to print them, I

This company is taking money from people who are students, cleaners, waitresses, people who don’t know how to write a complaint letter, where to complain, they don’t know their rights ,they cant read a contract or the small print, they don’t know where to go, vulnerable people who are easily ignored and fobbed off by Global Visas and Liam Clifford who made a fortune on their back.
Excuse my bluntness but I am not a softly spoken lawyer, I am just a member of the public .
do you think Armageddon will ever come for Global Visas?
I have lots of emails of liam lying to his customers ,I have emails of him blackmailing his customers by promising a refund if they write a favourable letter regarding their company. I am ready to forward all the emails to an email address you have as evidence so I don’t need to print them, I 

Thank you very much for reading.

Thank you to those who gave me this information, it is much appreciated!

Fraudulant Immigration Companies

The last blog that was written was by my Partner, when at the time i was having problems with the Internet.  Recently, myself and my partner attempted (on more than one occasion ) to contact a company  who claim to be the number one Immigration consultants in the world.
That company is called Global Visa, and i recently got in touch with an Immigration LAWYER from canada, explaining the position my partner and i are in... Basically in practically six months we began the process to have me bought over to canada permanantly..... We was told that the Immigration process would be between 3 and six months (and yet six months later, i am still practically at square one, and certainly being 'hounded' for the 'rest of the payments's within a three month time limit. To date, including medical fees, medical reports etc..... i have now paid out over a thousand pounds, and my partner has also had to pay fees for the right of abode in Canada.

The Lawyer i spoke to today, rang me from Canada and we had a chat about what was going on, this is basically what was said: (names have been removed or changed to protect privicy)

Hello ****,

Please see the link below regarding Global Visa:

Many thanks,

> cfenquiry: Back in October 2010, (october 12th) My partner and I made the decision to Bring me to Canada permanently.We was going through the Family/conjugal relationship class , have been in a relationship for 16 months on April 16th. My partner and I have now been apart for 9 months having to speak and be seen on the Skype voip service. The Company we was originally utilising for me to Join my partner in Canada has done nothing in 6 months apart from 'rob' me of nealy £1000, taken my money and has shown me no, or very little work for the money paid out to Global Visas in Good faith. If you could contact me on:*********** Regarding This, and possibly any help you may be able to assist with, i would appreciate it.

People's Attitudes

Some people have the attitude they can do what they want and get away with it. They don't care about the people they push away. They admit they're pushing people away,but still expect them to do things for them. Admittedly, I've been that way at times,but I realized what I was doing.They tell you that they're pushing you away,they admit they're jelous of you and yet, they still expect you to do favors and do whatever for them. It doesn't work that way. If you want to push people away for whatever reasons, don't expect them to do you favors at the same time. GV, for start, has done something very wrong. They expect me to play ball with them when they've had nearly a 1,000 pound out of me.Another company, S.C,housing association, again, can't do their jobs either. S.C, have the attitude that they want everyone, their tenants to pay their rent on time every fourth night. As it goes, I'm not happy with their practices at all. Basically, we've had a company that's deserted us and left us on our own with no help or support, the kind they're supposed to give to us. People these days don't seem to realize that in order to get what they want, they have to work at it in the right way, not the wrong way. You don't take advantage of someone's good nature,nor do you take someone's money and not be expected to give them the support they ask for in return. G.V for instance, they made me promises they never intended to keep. It's been near enough six months since the process started with them, yet, they haven't kept in touch with me to let me know how things are going, they person who had my case to begin with is no longer with the company, yet, they weren't even going to tell me they were leaving the company until  I HAD TO CALL them for an update. The new person who has my case, hasn't even contacted me to let me know who they are! I'm still going to Immigrate to Canada,don't get me wrong, I want to be with my fiancee and my daughter, but I will have to go to another company that is willing, more then willing, to do their jobs. G.V, was a good choice in the beginning, but, they're only sitting on their asses doing nothing and this has set me and my fiancee back 5 months and expect me to do their job for them. I paid them to do a job, not pay them so I can do their job for them.  Read this link, England is the most violent Island in Europe.
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2512514/UK-is-most-violent-nation-in-Europe-and-is-worse-than-US.html
" Britain, was once known as GREAT Britain",it's now a country where we won't even say it's "great". It's gone downhill for years now. Throughout it's long history, every other country has tried to take a piece of it. I'm proud to be English, but I'm not proud to be in Britain". People from other countries believed that the roads of England were  covered in gold and came here for their share of it. The roads here are not covered in gold, they're simple roads made by ordinary  people.Thatcher,Blair and Major they screwed the country up big time. I could run this country better then them as I would work with the people, not against them and not lie to them! This, would've made me a great politician. I believe in fairness in  to help the people. If anyone has anything to say about this, you've had the chance to have your say but you've not done anything and it will be published.
S.C, (Housing Association) was supposed to move me 3 months ago for my own safety. Here's why.: A former tenant and his "mates" were harrassing me and other tenants. They tried,tried really hard to intimidate me to give them my laptop, my safe and other items but didn't work, so they turned their frustrations on to another tenant. They beat this person because he wouldn't give them any money, as a result, they sent him to the hospital. This person doing all this crap was then evicted from the house, I requested,nicely, to be moved as I was concerned with my own safety. they began the process but then said " you don't need to move now as he's no longer a tenant here". Well, they failed to take his keys and he kept coming back to the house while the employees weren't at the house. He used the computer, ate other people's food and left the downstairs in a state. Once again, they failed to do their jobs. They admitted they never took his keys, so he was able to come and go as he pleased. Then one night, he managed to get in to the house, go in to the kitchen, vandalize it and leave a very strong and very personal message for me. Basically, he left a death threat. The police were called in, they did what they were supposed to do yet the company, S.C, refused to move me for my safety. I've had to stay in that house and even had to sleep in my combats because I was concerned  for my safety. There was a night where I had to go in to the hospital, they kept me in over night to make sure everything was alright but when I got back to the house, I found my room was broken into and my laptop, safe and other items were gone. They left my room in one really bad state. S.C. still believed that I don't have to be moved. I now have to fill out the papers for Immigration again, I have to begin the process of replacing the things that were stolen from me and I'm not made of money. The workers at the house have not offered any support to me in regards to my items, they said that my room was robbed, no, my room wasn't robbed, I WAS ROBBED. Those items can be replaced in time, but what they did to me personally was completely wrong!  The last 3 months, I've been through hell! I've been under so much stress, that there's enough to go around for 10 people. A person's body can only handle so much stress before it starts to take it's toll. Since I've been back in England, 9 months now, I've had to deal with more stress, health problems and have to do other people's jobs for them! If I had my way, I would never have left Canada! I felt more relaxed there, no stress or not much stress and I felt SAFE! I'm going to do whatever it takes to get back to Canada and stay there for good with my fiancee and daughter and build a life with them and not ever look back at the U.K. England, as far as I'm concerned, has done absolutely nothing for me, so why should I stay here??? In closing, I'm not giving up on leaving this country, I'm going to do whatever I have to do to leave England and make a better life with my fiancee and daughter.

Impersonating TV Stars (unrelated to current subject)

It's tragic to see that TV stars are,  or seem to be unknowingly being impersonated by people using social media sites,  I came accross one today that doesn't look like it was made by the 'Star' concerned, yet seems to have been made by a Fan of the star certainly impersonating that person which in itelf is tragic, these people/fans/ obssessives need to get real lives instead of trying to use pc'c to make friends; posing as tv stars need to get in the real world...... ENOUGH SAID!

all the shit thats going on....... will hit the fan!

It's 21:33 here right now, im sitting here in  full combats, and although this post is unrelated to Canada, i will  admit i am scared, tonight i NEED to patrol this house make sure everythings  ok, sometimes i feel like i am back in a warzone and i panic. using the fatigues (combats) feels like a shield, i feel safe wearing it, but i shouldn't need to live my life like that. one thing i have noticed is kids won't give the respect to adults, but they will to the rank and dress (combats)

laws in the UK

We're are afflicted by them all over the world, but i feel strongly that some companies dont keep  to their word; i WONT give  the companie(S) names but if things dont improve i will go to the british  papers and voice my concerns that the elderly and vunerable are being left to their own devices people may see me as a hero here or an Enemy, but the truth must be told as to what these companies are: MONEY HUNGRY!!!
If i need to i will give the name(s) of those companie(s) to a NATIONAL BRITISH NEWSPAPER, and let the paying public decide who's wrong, they need to know the money is  being spent properly.l This is why Canada is so much safer than Britain.
