The scary part is John Bennet is probably the smartest guy on the Fat Prophets team. God help em!

Hey John, You just took Fat Prophets to a new low. Do you know what a snipping tool is. Remember your PM? Would you like to see it?

Yeah, heh heh. I was trying to only post about the dodgy service I experienced from Fat Prophets rather than my opinions about the owner. Oh, I can’t resist just one dig – Did you know that even his own staff say his ego writes cheques that his brain just can’t cash? Even his own employees...

I think he has his wires crossed. I accused Fat Prophets of selling their clients details – mine included. When I (foolishly) bought a subscription to Fat Prophets a while back I almost immediately started receiving phone calls from other share/investment companies asking for me by name. It...

I don't like sneaking behind everyone's back so here is a PM I received and my answer - Hi MadBrad, I am in FP management and would like to know who has been trying to sell you lists. I would appreciate if you could either email me - [email protected] Or alternatively is there a number i...

“…… And if any of you point out those dead bodies I’ll have my solicitor deal with you quite harshly, that is, if you’ll be so kind as to tell me who you are and where you live… please.” (I'm hearing a John Cleese voice when I do those quotes)

I guess I’m still shocked that Fat P can set themselves up to be ‘advisors’ and not have a clue. Imagine if someone in the healthcare industry did the same thing. You’d have dead bodies everywhere but they’d be saying “Wait, look, one of them is still alive, and he’s walking. There’s the...

Fat P phoned me earlier this week to try to sign me up for their telephone advisory service. Before he launched into his spiel the telephonist rattled off a list of supposed successful recommendations they had made… bad mistake. They were such bogus claims I couldn’t hold back. I think this guy...

RE: selling client details I've just noticed I'm not the only one who experienced this. I didn't think that would be the case.

Fat Prophets did PM me. I hope he wont mind me posting it here. I've edited any private bits: Hi, We do not sell personal details. This is in clear breach of UK data protection laws. The same applies in Australia (in case you are there) as far as I am aware. Whom did you speak with? I trust the...

In all fairness, after reading about Fat’s employees, I have to allow the thought that maybe Fat P management aren't aware that someone on their team is selling customer lists. Perhaps we can get Fat P to throw some light on the company policy on this. When I click on the 'Privacy' link on the...

I don’t know about cold calls. But, I do know they sold my information. After I signed up I suddenly had people on the phone trying to sell me investment products. I’d never received any of these phone calls before and they were asking for me by name. It started about 7 days after signing up...

Wow! This is amazing. Can I politely ask Fat Prophets for an explanation?

You've stormed on here, full of bluff and bully, and attacked those who have found your service to be of poor standards and your business dealings shady in more ways than one. Instead of taking the negative comments on the chin and using them as feedback to improve your business, you've thrown...

Hi PBoyles. I'm a fan of your work. Unfortunately I was with Fat Prophets for almost a year before a friend pointed out how much better I could be doing with decent advice. I did a little research and found he was completely right. I was running way behind with these guys. I didn't just waste...
