Here we go again......The European City Guide are mailing contracts under a new name, but not much else has changed, the layout is almost identical to the contracts mailed under their own name which have lead to thousands of complaints , critical press coverage and questions being asked in the European Parliament.
CONTENTSThe New ContractsIt was probably inevitable that the ECG would do this, an internet search for their name reveals that they are so heavily criticized as to have their own section on the dmoz Open Directory Project! When your name is that reviled it's probably time to ply your trade under a new name! The contracts we have seen thus far is in Dutch and French, trading under the name and address: E.C.G., S.L. Martinez Cubells, 6, 4° pta.8 E-46002 Valencia The new directory is called (In Dutch) Industrie En Handel, 2006 - Register Zakelijke Informatie (In French) Commerce Et Industrie 2006 - Registrie Des Affaires We await the English Language Version!
