Dear all
Apparently a group calling themselves TEMDI- The European Medical Directory and previously operating as IMI- International Medical Information - are contacting homeopaths offering free advertising for a year, and when they send you the paper work they make some small error on your address. When you correct it, you have inadvertently signed a contract to pay them 1000 euros.

The organisation is under criminal investigation in Switzerland.
Remember if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.
With rgds

These people hounded us for payment a couple of years ago ( are they based in Spain?). The Clinic did not advertise as a business, so we knew no-one had commissioned the ad. The threats got quite nasty and went on for well over a year and I am sure a bigger business might have just paid up for a quiet life or thinking the mistake might actually have been their own. The ironical thing is they sent us another form to fill in last year – but we haven’t had the payment demands again (not yet).
