Another SCAM to add to this sorry list:
Bitcoin Exchange Ltd,
https://bitcoinexchangeltd.comClaim they trade BTC for cash but my experience is they just take your BTC (see also
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=332876.msg4370868#msg4370868)
In the absence of my promised but yet to materialise refund my loss has been minor. It seems from
https://blockchain.info/address/1Ndvbh9Li8Bm8jSSfPUyj3ytNrNz49HxWV (on just one of their deposit addresses) others stand to loose much more including several deposits since my earlier posts.
It also seems their claimed Company registration # 08459694 and associated address may not be their own (see

If anyone has experience to contrary I'd be happy to know. If I receive my refund after all I'll let you know. Gross obstructiveness and incompetence is one thing, while fraud would be another entirely.
Meanwhile I've filed full reports with Action Fraud and the UK Office of Fair Trading.
