Here's a link to a website that has pics.

Well he was incredibly abusive to me. Both in texts and emails, he called me a c*nt, wank*r, cheeky f*cker - all sorts and was really, really aggressive. All of this was because he sent me the wrong thing and I tried to get him to send the correct item instead. I assure you I was nothing other than very polite and at first I thought he was joking it was so bad. This was dominic Walker by the way. I asked him if he treated all of his customers like this and he just went off into another offensive rant. I can honestly say that I've never been treated so badly by anyone and this was from someone I was giving money to!!!

I'd never dream of treating a customer anything like. I'm not the only one who has had this sort of abuse from them/him either.

Well he's hardly likely to ban himself is he?! I still got the texts/emails so I could prove it if needs be. I was literally shocked.

Well I am a trading locksmith now but I definitely wasn't back then. There's not a hint of that on the website anyway, he'll sell to anyone.

How funny would it be to get him kicked out of his own organisation?!

Yeah, check this email out! This came after having nasty text messages sent to me. I was going to meet him at a locksmith exhibition to swap the item I ordered that he got wrong but I missed him - he'd left by the time I rang him. So he sends me all these nasty texts and then this email!

I must stress that I'd done nothing whatsoever to antagonise him. Make your own mind up.

Wow. Simply amazing he'd speak that way to a customer.

I liked your response though. Very measured and calm in comparison to him.

I have bought from them once, and never again.
I bought that Abloy pick, and the make-up-key.
The pick doesn´t work, and makeupkey broke.
Dominic´s answer to my complaint about the pick was something like: no pick works on all locks, we just opened a padlock with it today.

Cheers mate, once he'd been so insulting I had the moral high ground and was going to keep it. Besides, I'd never dream of speaking to anyone like that, let alone someone I was doing business with!

What a horrible man.
