Kavin Patel Website design ripoff, website development ripoff, liar and a cheat

Left a project on Elance and this company bids. Not a great bid a bit generic but I like some of their apparent websites.
They bid agian for the same amount which also happens to be the max amount the project is going for.
They then bid a week later for a third time and this time it's $250 over the max bid amount! After questioning it his reply was "Ah I bided on the wrong project".
OK so I should have had alarm bells then but pickings were slim and they looked like the best shot as anyone can make mistakes. Should have gone with my sixth sense!

So I award the project on the 18th OCT 09 and leave my terms, they come back with "thanks for giving us this project we should have your Ecommerce up and running in two weeks" Kavin its not an Ecommerce site, its a blog site and the ususal apologies came up...

We argue over the 50% upfront and them not being in business to RIP OFF anyone... I read up on Elance rules and it's not uncommon to do this, So in order to get the ball rolling I agree but only after we've agreed on a design.

I see a design on the 20 OCT 09 2 days later and dont hear anything substantial about the site for another 4 days when a mockup template comes through which is crass to say the least and after I've released Escrow funds of 50%

All i hear is theyre uploading it to my server for 4 more days and after threatening them by saying if nothing is up and substantial by the morning I'll be canceling and looking for another provider.

They put up a wordpress site with no interaction apart from the back end (which is build into it automatically) which I could have done myself. And then stuck the rudimentary graphics on the front! To resemble the website. All thiswork would have taken a proficient designer a couple of hours. They said they worked on it all day to get it live and missed out the crucial parts to building a website. Giveing the client what he wants! Development, testing, adjusting, launching.

At no time did they put up a holding page they just did it ad hoc, and after their mess of a site going up I canceled. I got called a thief for closing their FTP and that they would fight me over ALL the work they did. All they did was try and rip me off. I'm waiting on Arbitration from Elance.com to get my money back...

My recommendations, avoid hustlers like Kevin Patel and Dhruv Patel from 05creations.com like the plague... They have no clue how to do business and will take your money anyway way they can!
