starman3243 reported Margaret Rose Healthcare with the number 01476561688 as Cost trap
After trying to get my elderly father to pay £900 for a mattress and being found out, they then contacted my father to say the mattress was ready for delivery. When being told that the order had been cancelled they said "You cant do that".
Well actually you can. Under the Distance Selling Regulations if you order something without actually seeing it you are entitled to cancel the order if you change your mind within 14 days of the order being placed. -

A well spoken lady called on 01476 571580 purporting to be from Margaret Rose Healthcare. She said she was ringing "everyone in my area" (in Berkshire) to ask if we were in good health and wanted "mobility aids". I said we would go via GP & NHS/private healthcare and asked if she was really ringing everyone in my area. She then changed that wording to say "We have you on our list, yes". The call was courteous throughout but is clearly an example of cold selling. I object because the very nature of what they provide means they are likely to be targeting vulnerable people.

Wrote to,a client of mine saying they had been signposted by,their own GP . Did she need a new mattress? Sold her a single Memory Foam mattress for £14000 ...... Even went as far as writing the cheque out for her then getting her to sign it!
Luckily she had the notice to phone the local CAB afterwards. -

Cee Em reported unknown with the number +441476561688 as Aggressive advertising
My lovely father-in-law, aged 84 received a call from Margaret Rose Healthcare last week. The person on the other end of the phone was so solicitous, asking him about his health that he thought it was the hospital ringing him. Eventually, he ascertained that he was not speaking to the hospital but a company selling chairs, beds, mattresses etc for elderly and inform people. Dad said that he had been thinking of purchasing a new mattress and agreed that they could send him some leaflets. He received another phone call the following day saying that the company 'had a man in the area' could he call round? Dad said yes and the guy came round. He weighed and measured dad and the proceeded to sell him an orthopaedic mattress with a 10 year guarantee for £995! Dad said he wouldn't pay that much and the bloke asked if that was because he couldn't afford it - dad said he could but he felt it cost too much so the guy reduced the price by £400! The salesman very kindly wrote out Dad's cheque for the deposit for him and then told him that his Grandmother had set the company up, he then left telling him how grateful he was for the order!
We smelt a large rat feeling that this was one very expensive mattress so we asked Dad if he would show us the paperwork. On reading it we discovered that the mattress is not orthopaedic and the guarantee is only for 3 years, never mind it being seriously overpriced! Having done some further investigation on the Internet, we found that the company was set up in 2011, by a man, and only changed its name to Margaret Rose Healthcare in 2012. We are helping Dad to cancel his order and to cancel his cheque. Dad is an intelligent person who is very capable of making good decisions but he feels foolish for having been taken in. We have explained that these people are trained to talk to elderly people, to find out information and to use it to get their sale. I really hope that this story will help other people to avoid being taken in. -

Our mum has just passed away.She bought an orthopaedic bed last year. She paid 1800 pounds for it. We thought we can sell it for maybe 700 pounds. We looked on ebay how much they really are. You can get one for 350 pounds brand new and delivert. What a con on a 85 year old woman. Why are these prices even allowed

Roy reported Margaret Rose Healthcare Grantham with the number 01476561688 as Cost trap
I was visiting my very old uncle when these people called and I pretended to be my uncle. They said that Age Concern had selected them to contact people with mobility problems, and asked if I was sleeping well. They suggested that replacing the mattress would help with mobility problems, and said that they had quality orthopedic mattresses on special offer starting at £1500. When I asked for their number and said I would call them back after checking with Age Concern, they hung up. Got their number by dialing 1471. I suspect my uncle is on a database in circulation, of old people with mobility scooters.

These people have conned my mum into signing for £3844 for a adjustable bed. Knocked£1000. Off for discount and took a deposit of £695 from her. I will be trying to stop this tomorrow. Watch this space. She is nearly 80 and preyed on by a woman. Disgraceful.
Allen replied 4/26/14, 7:04 PMMy wife's aunt was contacted by these cowboys in February and sold a mattress for £1600. She was also sold a scooter that she didn't need for £3200. We tried this week to get a refund and hit a brick wall and intend to go to Trading Standards on Monday. Please update your progress -

They phoned wanting to check the mobility of my aunt whose phone I picked up. When I started asking them questions the phone was swiftly put down. They had phoned my aunt previously wanting to sell her a mattress no doubt this was a further call to put pressure on her

Sold an elderly friend an un-suitable £250 mattress for - £1,600!!! Cold calling at the door. Apparently there is nothing Trading Standards can do about it.
Reg adamson replied 10/26/13, 6:25 PMBoth elderly grandparents recently out of hospital, received call from this company to visit. How thy got their number I do not know. Agent arrived and there was some confusion regarding where she had come from. she asked to see around the bungalow and then made reference to a mattress. Initial cost of £2352 ! YEP £2352. When told that was too much, she made the expected call to the boss and managed to get one that "had been ordered and was returned unused." This one was £1000 cheaper, £1352. When told it was still too much the agent started on the £28 per week option. When informed that neither have control of the funds in the house, that their daughter would have to be consulted, the agent then beat a hasty retreat. I cannot believe that people are allowed to trade like this. I do hope our paths cross one day.Annoyed man replied 11/25/13, 12:26 PMThey did the same to my nan, spent 2 hours pressuring her into buying a £3500 reclining chair, fortunately she spoke with us before they could take the money, they did of course get an immediate deposit of £100 which they phoned through to their office immediately.
BIG BUNCH OF CONMEN and I will not rest until everyone knows. Starting with posting a letter to everyone on the owners street advising them all of what he does for a living. Address above, id recommend doing the same. -

This company arranged a meeting and arrived to sell my elderly mother a reclining chair She has dementia and clearly is quite deaf and very confused. This is easily recognisable on the phone. Luckily I was there when the rep turned up but she was very cagey and wouldn't show me the paperwork she had.
