"I came here on the 30th of oct, because they told me I was going to work with a friend and when I got in Glasgow they sent him in another city and after he was sent home, I had to wait a hole day in rain because they didn't want to tell me what they want to do with me and I just had to stay from 10 in the morning to 11 in the night in parks and on the benches in the city like a homeless person I worked in Glasgow for a week and after that they sent me to Dundee, a small city in Scotland, we live in a very dirty apartament, with no heat or hot water, worked in here for 2 weeks and now they closed the unit and they want us to go home ,they want people from Romania, Poland and Bulgaria because they think we are very poor and we won't do anything anyway, but they may be wrong and someday they will get somebody very pissed of and who knows what can happen"

"My experience with them was very short, I came on 18'th of november 2007 and then when my friend Radu came to Glasgow they told me that I need to go in Leeds, and just before I worked for a month to get half of the money for my travel they sent me home, I found my luggage in the managers car, he left me at the bus station with no money in my pocket and told me I have to go home, somehow I got to London where the office is and got some money but they did not give me all of it"
› Razvan Buzdugan, Bucuresti
"I borrowed 500 pounds to get here and they moved me from Glasgow to Dundee and Glasgow againd and Back to Dundee and I had to pay for transportation from my own money, they gave me my first salary after almost a month and that was only 150 pounds, and now on the 30th of nov they shut this unit down and I don't have any money to get home and they are not saying anything, It is the worst decision I ever made to come here and work for this people, I am realy desperate right now"
› Costin Tudorache, Ploiesti
"I came here with Razvan, we stayed in Glasgow for 3 days and then came to Dundee, this city is very small so you can't sell a lot, they sent me to Leeds after 2 weeks, in there the conditions were very bad even worst than in Dundee and I had to lye to them that my mom was sick so I could get some money to go home"
The following people did not write themselfes this, I am going to write what happend to them, they are from Israel and had a hard life in Danbar also.› Noga, Israel
"I worked with them for 3 month but they treat people like shit, you never get your salary right, I wanted to get a day off for my birthday and the area manager Ron, told me that he is tired and he will take that day off so I had to celebrate my bday working, we stay 5 in the apartament and we pay to the company about 1300 pounds together and the apt. costs about 800 pounds, that is a lot of money they are just taking from us, they said we are going to work 8 hours a day and in fact we had days working 16 hours a day and now we work 11 hours a day"
› Tom, Israel
"One night we came with our boyfriends at home and the "manager" told us that we are not allowed to bring anyone in the house, how can you say something like that when we pay 520 pounds a month for a fucking room and we are not allow to bring anybody in there, after that they gave us each 50pounds penalty, that is realy fucked up, I hate this company , you should never make the mistake we made and come and work for them"
› Yohai Shitrit, Israel
"I came here with my girlfriend because they promissed that we can work toghether, we got in the airport and had to wait in there for 12 hours until they decided what bus we should take to get to the city and to the apartament, to find out after that we can not work toghether, they are a bunch of liars they will walk over dead bodies just to get their money, I hope they use it "to buy medicine" (a jewish word, I would say I hope they use my money for their funerals)"
I repeat this people have nothing to do with what I wrote in here, this are just discutions that I had with them and I just got some conclusions from that.
