Hi, here's Monday's first request!

Best Price Computers, 7A Eldon Way Industrial Estate, Eldon Way, Hockley, Essex, SS5 4AD, Tel 0870 220 0444, fax 0208 904 3323, Web: www.poweroid.com.

Manufacturer of PCs & workstations, also specialiases in video editing systems, dual processor systems and graphic workstations.

Any ideas?

That 0208 fax number is somewhere else - Hockley is in the Southend-on-Sea exchange area so landlines there will have an 01702 STD code not an 'outer London' one.

Their website is http://www.bestpricecomputers.ltd.uk/profile/about_us.htm

Another firm with EXACTLY the same address is:

4Edge Ltd
www.4edge.co.uk

Where have you got the address and fax from as the about us page shows the fax as 0870 22 00 666. Perhaps the 020 fax is at the old location.

Hi

I got the details from www.microscope.co.uk

Mr Clinton Lee is the registrant and probably the managing director. A check of 192.com reveals there is a "Director Report" for him and also his home phone number.

[edit]This appears to relate to another Clinton Lee, although I cannot be certain.[/edit]

A Google of his home phone number reveals an address for Par Electrical Services Ltd. Another Google for that company reveals its website: http://www.parelectricalservices.co.uk/

The contact page gives a mobile: 07813682858

And the email is clintdaza@hotmail.com

How very intriguing - I rang 4Edge and they are nothing to do with him - they said "his car's not there today".  Sounds like a one man operation.  I feel like a Detective in this job sometimes - I'll try the mobile now!

The mobile doesn't work. Hmmm, think I'll move on, thank you all anyway xx

LOL, there is some funny information in this thread including an address/phone number last used half a decade ago or more, and some other poor bloke's mobile, name and address. (And also 4Edge's number just in case anyone wants to harrass the neighbours. Nice!)

The company stopped supplying PCs to the general public two years ago and retained those Hockley premises as the lease is not yet up. But, did you try the obvious route of emailing them? Try webmaster ==at==bestpricecomputers.ltd.uk and if you use saynoto0870.com as your subject you can tell the company why you won't be calling their 0870 number and your email will be read :)

(As webmaster I'll whitelist that subject title for the next 7 days)

Don't be surprised if you don't get an answer though.

I have emailed the webmaster and explained to him that I do not harass anyone, but work in an ethical manner.  I work from home, am self-employed, so the 0870 numbers are irksome.  I do not email people as emails are too easy to ignore.  

I hope that sets the record straight!

Try calling Mr Lee on 07706488832.

No slur was intended on your ethics.

Though the moderator, Dave, doesn't seem too concerned about bothering several unconnected people, including that last mobile number.

Sorry, but if you want to contact Best Price Computers Ltd you need to do it by email. I can't see a problem with that (especially as the company doesn't sell to domestic/end users anymore)

I don't think I'd dare now!  I did get a reply from the webmaster though... but not a 'phone number!  8-)

Thank you for all your help which is much appreciated.

Dave, LOL. Nice detective work but slightly on the wrong track ;)

Sorry, but we're not open to the general public except by email and nothing,  I repeat, nothing you provide here will make the slightest bit of difference :)
