I am posting this web page as a general warning to others of people and organisations that we have dealt with who have behaved in a generally dishonourable and/or dishonest manner, in terms of non-payment of bills, going back on their word, etc.
Of, of formerly of, 52 Reculver Road, Herne Bay, Kent CT6 6LQ. Involved with a company called "UK Independent Security".
They hired some radio gear from us in August 2009 and still have not returned it, in spite of numerous phone calls and messages left, letters sent etc.
In fact, everyone else at "UK Independent Security" has been rather dodgy on the phone. One day, some chap answered, told me that they still had our kit and would send it, and when I asked who he was, said "never you mind my name"?! Several of them, one called Richard, another called John, have all promised to send our equipment back, but as of early December 2009 nothing has turned up and no-one will actually answer their phones to me. Avoid them, for they are liars and cheats! Looks like I may have to go to court over this.
HA HA HA - Their own web site has a warning on the front page saying "Please do not associate us with people stating they work with us, part of the company, or acting as a director(s) of the business. If someone states they are a director or part of the company to manipulate a trustworthy transaction call our office (01227 200191) immediately!" - an admission that they are having problems with dodgy ex-employees defrauding people - best advice I think is not to deal with them at all, they sound like a hangout for crooks to me!
If you google for Tobie Sidders (or Tobias Sidders) you will find - as I wish that I had done earlier on - that there are many web pages linking him to various scams.
All we want is to get our property back, but they seem unwilling to return it to us.
Of, or formerly of:
7 Avon Close, Canterbury CT1 1RF
He smashed the front window of our house at 77 Wincheap in May 2005, was arrested by the police and admitted the offence, but in spite of several letters, he won't pay for the damage that he did. Do not trust him. He has been in prison.

Rented an apartment in Ibiza from us, Summer 2006, promising us that he and his friends - who were all working their for the summer as chefs, would rent the place for the whole summer. Last time I saw him, he repeatedly told me that he was about to me pay the rent that he owed. Then he left the apartment owing us 1000 Euros. A bad debtor. Avoid trusting this man. He has a dog called Casper. I was also contacted in November 2006, as a result of publishing this page, by another person who had also been cheated by Tristan Poznanski over rent for a property.
January 2007: Another one:
I wanted to jot you a quick note to let you know I too have been cheated
and lied to, by Tristan Poznanski in Barcelona. I have a specialty catering business with Gourmet Delicatessan Products, and Tristan came to us as a new wholesale restaurant client, supplying or working for a previous client under a new company name Roast S.L. We proceeded to supply him food and pasteries during the entire month of October for which he signed for, and at the end of October, we started the waiting game of the never arriving bank transfer. Several weeks later in November, Mr. Tristan Poznanski disappeared, leaving an outstanding debt in excess of 800,00 Euros.His last known address where he was living with his dog is near the Santa
Caterina Market across from the Cathedral:Calle PLZ BEATES, 18 with mobile numbers 625 415 752 or 664 771 722 with
email address tristanpoznanski@hotmail.comNo change there then, Tristan!
This man deserves a page of his own, which he gets!
Rented a room in our flat, then moved out February 2009 giving no notice whatsoever and owing money.
Big fat bloke. Mobile number: 07814 545250 Email address: jimmyblogs@gmail.com
Don't trust him and don't let him owe you money.
Rented a house from us at 40 Cross Street, Lincoln. Moved out in May 2006 owing us the last month's rent. In spite of his many worthless promises to pay, he never has. A bed debtor to be avoided.
