Just had one call to my house in Epping today .my wife who is ill would not answer the door . We have a ring go bell. He had seen my wife through the front window. He actually tried the door handle to see it the door would open . I can see this clearly on my ring go video. Beware elderly and elderly people
I don't know how GOSH have got my mobile number, but I have recently had very persistent and pushy reps trying to contact me by call and message.Number now blocked!Whilst I fully support Great Ormond Streets Christmas fundraiser - and I have made a small donation - I'll choose who and when I donate money to.
A charity mugger came to my house and asked for my details. Despite my explicitly asking and the representative stating that GOS would not take money from my account, they set up a Direct Debit without my permission and took money from my account. The representative lied directly. I'm not talking about evasion or mistruth. An out-and-out lie.This experience has very much changed my relationship with charity organisations. I will no longer be giving money to any charity under any circumstances.Shame on you Great Ormond Street. You don't deserve people's money.
GOSH door knocker walked through gardens staring in window on way from next door to my door. Told him I don’t give to anyone who comes cold calling. Later the same day and he’s back again. Not acceptable, firstly do not stare in my windows, secondly, No means No!
Very proud to donate monthly to GOSH Children’s charity. They truly do amazing work.
I had the chance to meet the executive director at a recent fundraising event, and their passion for the cause was palpable. They shared personal stories about the organization’s origins and the challenges they’ve overcome, which resonated with everyone in attendance. It’s clear that their vision and dedication trickle down to every team member, creating a motivated and cohesive group. This strong leadership fosters an environment where innovative ideas thrive, resulting in impactful programs that truly change lives.
Playing the lottery for over 2 years and not even won a tenner.. I've won more times on the national lottery.. and now I can't afford to play anymore they keep ringing me wondering where their money is....
Not happy with fund raisers knocking on my door twice in 2 weeks.Puts me off donating
Well, I started by reading some other reviews. Not good is it?.I wanted to donate £50 to their new childrens hospital so called the number.Sorry... but we are unable to accept calls at the moment.shocking.....do you want donations or not?.Called an hour later....still not taking donations.This country is truly broken
I was not harassed in my home, but I was harassed whilst out shopping, on two consecutive days!I was leaving Home Bargains in Rhyl and a young male called out, "Hello Curly Whirly, can I ask you a silly question".... I am an adult and yes I have curly hair, what right has this kid to address me is such a way, and to assume I am going to be interested in what his silly question might be! The following day Easter Saturday when leaving Sainsburys in Rhyl, I was spoken to by a different male, "Hello Miss Curly can I ask you a silly question" ... what the hell!!!!! These rude young people are obviously trained to pick out some physical feature, perhaps to somehow appeal to their victims, well it doesnt work! Nor does the chat line... can I ask you a silly question! GOSH do you have any idea how these young yobs are alienating people from an otherwise undoubted great cause? I would no more sign up with them for donations, thereby giving them some monetary benefit for capturing me, than fly to the moon. Think on GOSH and perhaps stick to professional means of getting funds, and not using rude flyby money grabbing youths.
I am over female and in my 70'son my own and have twice been canvassed in the dark by young people working for this charity. It is an inappropriate time to call in a rural area. They then did the same to an elderly neighbour who was foolish enough to let them in until his daughter stepped in. We both support various charities but don't want these uninvited people on our doorsteps. I shall be reporting this to the local police. Apparently they have to have one's bank details ( a one off donation not acceptable) or they don't get paid. Disgraceful.
Really ?In this day and age , is it sensible to send young girls out in the streets after dark to try to get people to sign up to donate ?? No it is not . Also from the other side , it makes vulnerable residents open their doors to complete strangers . I seriously question the thought process behind this campaign.
We’ve been harassed by GOSH representatives on numerous occasions now. They knocked our door THREE times in a single day. Once at midday when no-one was home, the second just 10 minutes after I arrived home from work (obviously stalking me), and the third at 8:30pm!! I’ve previously expressed my disinterest on donating to the charity, yet they continue to return to our property. If a property could be put on a sort of TPS these guys would be in some serious trouble. After speaking to neighbours, they had nothing good to say either (we have a community Facebook Group), some even said that the representatives were extremely rude and overly personal - one lady even had to leave her house because she didn’t feel safe! Times are hard enough and people certainly aren’t going to donate money to a charity that is being represented by such rude individuals. We’ve offered to give them some spare change as a donation but they insist on bank details. You can jog on if you think I’m going to be giving my bank details to some stranger at my doorstep. I’ll happily donate to charity but it will be on my own terms - not with harassment and peer pressure at my door. I wrote this review after GOSH decided to ignore my email of complaint. We’ve now opted to purchase a ‘no cold callers’ plaque to prevent them from visiting in future. If they choose not to comply and continue to harass us, I will be taking this further; perhaps even deciding as a community to set up a ‘no cold calling zone’ with the Local Authority if need be.
I found it highly intrusive to have someone knocking on my door asking for money for this charity. I understand that all charities need money but door to door harassment makes me never want to donate. There are a lot of people struggling to pay bills at the moment so having someone trying to guilt trip you on your doorstep is totally unacceptable and moreover getting paid for it meaning some of the donation doesn’t even get to where you want it. Clearly harassment works better than advertising though otherwise they wouldn’t be doing it.
GOSH knocked on my door three times in one day, including after dark. I see this as harassment. Once is enough.
