Zillion Business Review - BAD BAD BAD
The outline of the case is as follows:-
• We were approached on email and on the phone by Zillion Media
• We were asked if they could write a story about us for their Zillion Business Review – we accepted
• No cost for the agreement was made as we do not pay for advertising (company standard)
• The piece was written and pictures were requested from Zillion to support the editorial
• As per request, we sent 5 pictures, of which 2 were chosen
• The final ‘Order Sheet for Publication’ was sent to us
• We read the text and signed the order to publish – again, no mention of costs or invoicing was attached to this document
• We were then presented with a bill for £2,755.00 EUR
The issues have arisen are as follows:-
• No mention or agreement of costs were discussed or presented before the proof to print was presented to us
• The only cost mentioned on this document was the cost of 1 EUR per extra copy over 25 if we requested them
• No cost was agreed throughout and they made zero notifications to us of any cost along the way
• On emailing them this information about deliberate ‘hiding’ of the cost, they admitted there had been some misunderstanding and offered a 6% reduction
• I declined this as we at no point agreed for this to be a paid publication
• They have again come back and offered a 10% reduction whilst instructing a Bailiff company to contact us to reclaim the costs which with extra fees and interest have now jumped to £2,742.85
• We have tried to make contact with the Bailiff Company and had zero communication back from them
• I have contacted Zillion to dispute these costs and they are now demanding this full settlement from us
I have also completed research online and found we are one of many companies this has happened to. Apparently they do not charge for the actual editorial but the size of the pictures added into it. Hence why they keep confirming ‘the editorial is free’ but only after much pushing did they admit the cost of the images (to which they chose and sized) is the costed part. All of this was never agreed to and if we would have know, would never have gone ahead.
They have stated the ‘business from the article’ is something that needs to be considered. We have received not one phone call, one email, one journalist request or any enquiry from the business. I requested a distribution pack of where the magazine is sent – this was declined.
I have been in communication with Anne on email (all emails attached) and will keep in communication with her as we are concerned with the addition of them seeking Bailiffs, we may be forced to pay and then we can never reclaim the costs. We have now received an email from Anne at Zillion with the email address for the ‘Bailiff’ company as:- Rick Wubbels r.wubbels@***.nl so I am concerned the two are very closely linked as I find it odd to be asked to discuss this over email with a ‘high court’ agency.
On the bailiff letter, I can see they are trading under two names – Zillion Media BV and Bala United INC, I have found two addresses for them which I have included above.
The Bailiff Company I have been contacted by is:- TE RECHT DEURWAARDERS and they have stated their website is www.terechtdeurwaarders.nl but can also be found at www.kbvg.nl. Due to them being in the EU I sought advice online and was told to make contact with the Financial Ombusman based in the UK – I have copied them into this letter also.
Will let everyone know how i get on!

These fake publishing Zillion Media predators tried to scam my company in the 1990s! We also ignored all the officious attempts by collectors and they eventually went away.
