9. An Open Letter To Roland Tilman

Dear Roland,

Firstly, let's get the issue of your enigmatic brother out of the way. Sadly, owing to legal proceedings being underway, I am unable to speak to him directly, so instead I will address my concerns to you. You see, I was worried. I have a suspicion that your brother may have defrauded you out of what is rightfully yours. According to ancient British laws of primogeniture, hereditary titles are passed down to the eldest son. Thus, the fact that your younger brother is claiming the title Lord Tilman seems to suggest that he has usurped from you your rightful position in the Family Tilman.  Unless of course, you voluntarily consented to abdicate  the Tilman family throne? What is more disturbing is the fact you seemed unaware of your brother's noble title when we spoke on the phone last Sunday. I am beginning to suspect that some ghastly family secret is about to be unearthed. Have your family kept you in the dark all these years? Is there to be some Dickensian twist in the tail of this London Fashion Exchange story? Or is the fraternal rupture to which you alluded on the phone rooted in a battle over the family honourific?

The mind boggles.

More on-topic, I would like to know the answers to these questions:

1. You claim that the invoices you gave to trainees who paid for training were not headed by a false address, because although "2 Lansdowne Road" was not your operating address, it was the address to which your company was registered. Which company are we talking about here, Roland? I assume you mean London Fashion Exchange Ltd, as this is the company you said now owns London Fashion Exchange. 

 London Fashion Exchange Ltd is registered as having a registered and trading address of "5 Chigwell Road, London, E18 1LR".

Or were you talking about Scootec Ltd, the company you told me transferred the London Fashion Exchange brand to Joe Cox? 

Scootec's registered and trading address is: "145-157 St John Street, London, EC1V 4PW."

It would help me greatly in understanding what is going on if you could explain which company you were referring to when talking about the Lansdowne road address, because to me it seems that you were using a false address on your invoices.






2. Roland, I feel i must take some credit for aiding your copy editors and fact checkers because you have now made two emendations following concerns I have expressed in relation to the text on your website. Reference to Scootec Ltd has been taken out of the address in your "contact us" section, and the claims in the "recruitment" section of 300% growth over 4 years have also been removed! Screen shots from last week are available at the bottom of this post.

With this in mind, perhaps you would care to look at the "about us" section of your website. Here is is claimed that the London Fashion Exchange was established by women who had become fed up of being defrauded when buying hair extensions online. I quote:

"As women who use hair extensions ourselves, we understand the importance 
 of buying great quality hair from a trusted supplier. After experiencing many
 fraudulent orders, we decided to set up our own company offering the hair that
 women want from a  trusted and reliable company."

You're right Roland! Fraud is a real bitch, isn't it!  But could you explain to me who these women are? I thought you told me that Scootec Ltd established the London Fashion Exchange brand and then it was acquired by Joe Cox. All the Scootec board members are male, and so is Joe Cox. You never mentioned anything to me about women starting the company. Perhaps your copy editor has made a mistake again?



**** UPDATE!****

Roland's expert team of copy-editors have emended their website text upon my instruction yet again (10.11.2013), this time elegantly shoehorning in a parenthetical qualification to a previous claim:


"As women (original founders of LFE) who use hair extensions 
ourselves, we understand the importance of buying great quality
 hair from a trusted supplier"

It seems that the London Fashion Exchange marketing department are not only lightning quick to cover up their deliberate/accidental misrepresentation of their company, but are also virtuoso prose stylists as well. Bravo.
********************





3. Finally, I noticed something potentialy misleading in your advert. If you use it again, you may wish to adapt it slightly. You state that you are a:

"prestigious marketing company looking to expand your office and 
sales team"

Which company are we talking about Roland? Scootec Ltd? Is Scootec prestigious?? Have you seen the Scootec accounts!? Has anyone heard of Scootec ? How do you define prestigious? Or are we talking about the London Fashion exchange Ltd? But the London Fashion Exchange is owned by a 19 year old, and has no trading history...

Anyway, the advert continues:

"We specialise in helping businesses stay afloat, and help them
 overcome the challenges of changes taking place in the market 
place currently"

Which company is this?? All the trainees were given training under an invoice for the London Fashion Exchange! And considering you said that your company CAW Gallery closed down as it was unable to overcome the challenges of a changing market, are you best placed to offer such advice?

    Diet food
    Since now a days Women & Men are more conscious of the food that they eat hence they prefer to have homemade low cal food and if you can start supplying low cal food to various offices then it will be a very good source of income and not too much of efforts. You can hire a few ladies who will help you out and this can be a good business.

    Thus think over this concept and go ahead.
