HI,

I received through the site an offer to bid for the following company:
Anna Dyatlova
Lingvo House Translation Services Ltd
UK
info at lingvohouse.com
www.lingvohouse.com

THe web-sites do not open up - furthermore this company was only registered in the UK on 30 October 2008 and has no phone number and no web-site as such.

I would warn other people to be careful when opening the message - probably best to do from an Internet cafe.

Regards,

Basil

Hallo,

please do not post such messages, as this is diffaming a company. I´m closing and locking this. The best is, you contact the company and are asking for their information. If they dont provide you with this, it is your choice if you are working with them or not.

As we can see are they officially registered in the United Kingdom. They are still a young company and it is quite common that not all small companies have a functioning website in the beginning when starting their business.

Please dont mis-use TranslatorPub.com for such notices as we need to errase them otherwise.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hello Stefan,

I have searched, maybe not thoroughly enough, but I cannot seem to find a page supplying us translators with info regarding agencies, i.e. good/bad payers. There is not any and if so, do you plan on putting one up? It is extremely useful when dealing with an agency you have never worked with before, do you not agree?
Regards Lise
