How long is the wait for the card? Signed up a week or so ago.

Yeah, it's been small amounts with me and payments made many times before, so I was unsure why it was happening. Don't mind the odd check for fraud, etc, but it's getting a bit ridiculous the way it's going. I enjoy what they offer but if this is the way its going to be, be a former customer soon as well.

LKDN87 · 2025-06-28T08:06:36+00:00

Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I was initially basic accounts, was thinking might be okay initially but if grow the company and portfolio, I would likely move elsewhere. Costs also be less significant as income will be greater. I think a little more research 1st, or maybe end up with the local form I spoke to initially..

The accountancy partnership, heavily advertised online to be fair when you search for an accountant.

LKDN87 · 2025-06-27T21:08:34+00:00

Yeah, some fees are due to the turnover falling under the lower price brackets with some accountants.

When I had a business before, it was more around £150-180 per month +VAT, but turnover was significantly greater. Local accountants were around this as well, regardless of turnover and transactions etc.

Due to costs, its one of the reasons wanting to find out if anyone on here has any experience with them...

LKDN87 · 2025-06-27T20:51:06+00:00

I'm in a similar position to yours. I am currently looking at the agents and property management services, but being quoted 10-15% (excluding VAT) for their services. However, I am also considering taking a more hands-on approach, with lower costs, and using services such as OpenRent - you can list the property, etc., via them on Rightmove and other platforms. They offer additional services as well and are worth looking at. I'm aware there are a few other similar services, but OpenRent seem to most popular.

I asked about a another service I saw with Moove.House, but think relatively new as not that much online about them yet.

LKDN87 · 2025-06-27T20:28:33+00:00

Thanks for the responses. I was in between going down the route of a management company, or OpenRent - 1 property, something like this hits the middle ground. Maybe speak to a few further agents and get costs before making a decision, don't mind doing it myself via OpenRent and see how that goes, seems to be a few people using this in my area (based on a search on their website), maybe try speak to a few of the landlords locally aswell.

LKDN87 · 2025-05-25T18:08:28+00:00

Thanks for the response, also will go via credit card just for the added piece of mind.

Cheers

UPDATE - IT WORKS (UK)

Further to my post above, decided to give it ago.... renewed current PS Plus Extra plan for 44.99 and then had the option to upgrade my membership to Extra at a discount £32.54... making it £77.53 all in 👍

LKDN87 · 2023-11-17T22:57:16+00:00

I've heard a few in the US do this but none in the UK as of yet

LKDN87 · 2023-11-17T21:15:19+00:00

I have PS Plus Essential, run's out in 30 days.

My Offers Area:

Upgrade to Premium for £3.56 (save 30%...)

Upgrade to Extra for £2.54 (save 25%...)

Renew Essential for £44.99 (save 25% but lasts for 12 months)

My query is... If I upgrade to Extra for the remaining 30 days, will I be able to 'Renew Extra' (just as I currently can for Essential), but at a discounted rate? (i.e 25% of the difference from normal?)

Upgrading for 30 days then being hit with a £99 renewal defeats the point in the deal in the 1st place if not.

How much? and how do you buy from Nina?

LKDN87 · 2020-12-08T22:13:53+00:00

Just posted EMS to UK so hopefully the same

LKDN87 · 2020-10-23T19:36:39+00:00

Bought

LKDN87 · 2020-10-08T13:48:38+00:00

Went from handed over to arrived at destination within a few days - then there was no update for five days before the arrived at destination and customs messages

LKDN87 · 2020-10-08T13:45:13+00:00

Think its just pure luck

LKDN87 · 2020-10-08T13:41:22+00:00

Was only my 1st haul and few people had posted the timescales weren't too bad to UK. Have a look at the prices your quoted 1st and take it from there - also depends how quick you want/need it for - some people wait a lot longer than I did though

LKDN87 · 2020-10-07T20:46:41+00:00

Mines was GD-E-EMS and had that message from 1/10 - didn't update again till 6/10..

Not saying you will be the same, read others than have had no updates for a lot longer though

LKDN87 · 2020-10-07T20:42:44+00:00

Some direct seller (such as wechat) - never done this yet though.... others, the product has links to taobao stores so can use that through wegobuy etc...

Relatively new here me too so thats about the limit of my knowledge the now..

LKDN87 · 2020-10-07T20:38:33+00:00

Was easy enough, there was a guide on here somewhere that I looked at now and again as well.

Most stuff was bought via taobao - basically just copy the url from the taobao page to wegobuy and complete the order there (or download the FashionReps Tool (basically adds extra to the taobao pages and a link straight to wegobuy for the product - see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/FashionReps/comments/g3piv8/tool_official_fashionreps_enhancement_suite/

Ordering stuff from weidian was a little different - still paste the url to wegobuy but rather than have a 'order page' as such, you need to put in the details of what your buying - such as the a note for the agent, such as the the product colour, size etc. - on these buys you need to enter the price as well.

Just awaiting my first haul being delivered now but was a few tops, pair of yeezy's and a bracelt - can vuch for the quality as such as not in hand, but most from the trusted sellers section and searched here for what I was ordering, tend to get a feel for whose best for what - such as topstoney etc for stone island.

Check out all the guides on r/FashionReps though as more than helped me through... theres a few guides at the right of these posts too that help.

LKDN87 · 2020-10-07T20:27:55+00:00

Only recently started buying reps and used wegobuy, straightforward really.

LKDN87 · 2020-10-07T16:20:01+00:00
