Don’t let these scammers bully you
Fredrick Edwards Limited and Fredrick Edwards Associates Limited will hide behind the fact they're two registered companies with "similar names". Except what they won't tell you is that they share company directors, addresses, email inboxes, and even registered Data Protection Officers.
They are ostensibly the same company, using separate limited companies to mitigate legal and financial risk to their original organisation while they run their shakedown on the side.
When I engaged with their Instagram advert in 2023, Fredrick Edwards Associates Limited (whose Trustpilot has magically disappeared since I mentioned it to them), used the same logo as Fredrick Edwards limited. They sent all emails to me from hello [at] fredrickedwards. They even used the same logo on all of their documentation.
My personal information has now illegally been shared between organisations without my consent — accessible through a shared inbox by any Fredrick Edwards Limited employee, and sent to a third party debt collection insecurely. This includes my name, address, national insurance number, and signature. Perfect for anyone looking to steal an identity.
I know it was sent insecurely, because the debt collection company Judges Demand Ltd actually took the time to respond to my data subject access request I sent via the ICO. Fredrick Edwards Limited claimed they could not find me on their "system" — despite emails being sent to me from hello [at] fredrickedwards, and I am yet to receive a response to my numerous complaints in 8 weeks from Fredrick Edwards Associates Ltd.
This company will capture your information without any kind of privacy policy and then share it between companies without your consent. They will claim that you owe them money without you ever receiving any terms and conditions or privacy policy from them. Then they use Judges Demand Ltd who are complicit in their scam to threaten you with court action when you refuse to pay their "fee".
I have asked for evidence I was provided with terms and conditions, signed a contract, a privacy policy, reason why Fredrick Edwards Limited refuses to acknowledge that my data went through their servers and would have been accessible to their employees, and why their Data Protection Officer, Richard Render has refused to reply to my emails instead fobbing me off to another inept employee who rudely replies to emails stating that they will violate ICO guidelines by sending a DSAR well out of the 30 day window.
I implore anyone not to engage with this company or any of their other trading names — Fredrick Edwards Associates Limited, We Love RND etc.
You only have to Google "Richard Render tax" to find out the kind of people they are. Do you really want to trust a man who was banned from being a company director for 6 years for paying himself £150k despite owing the HMRC more than a quarter of a million?
If you have had the misfortune of dealing with these convicted scammers, please, please complain to the ICO. The more of us that do, the more likely this company is going to get hit with a fine.
Though I'm sure Richard won't mind on his £150k a year while refusing to pay his taxes.
