Official Find Madeleine - missing shop and contacts

Who's having problems seeing info on the McCanns official site?

If you are having problems, do you think with latest developments, they are winding down their company and or been advised they can no longer make money off the public?

I've no problem accessing the online store. It's working fine.

by Guest 21.06.13 15:41

Works fine for me too [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Lots of requests for people to give them money.

Yes, I got an error message, fail to find data. Posted in another thread with same query and speculation.

Thank goodness! At least I can still press the 'DONATE £ 100,- ' button. Even 'Missing People' don't have Donate buttons for more than £ 50,-.

And when you press the banner link for : " Purchase our book , where to purchase" on the online shop site The link leads you to this poster http://www.findmadeleine.com/pdfs/english_dont_give_up.pdf of Madeleine, nothing about the book at all...

Someone in the McCann camp must be reading because the link to "where to purchase the book" is now working again.

thought we were all sad people,with no lives, sitting in dark behind net, nameless nutters who spout such vile ludicrous ridiculous theories/ideas that laws should be made to stop all this . So don't think any of the good people would be bothering to read here !

The "purchase the book" just has a "Don't give up on me" poster now?

The book can be accessed via this link.

Hi there Team McCann, I wish I'd thought of this good marketing idea earlier; a free sick bucket to be given away with every book sold?

Donate buttons fully operational - even a button for £100 - just click and it goes into the cart. Proceed to checkout. The findmadeleine store experience.

This has probably already been noticed but the online store is still being updated.
Im trying to find out how long it has been being updated now ?
If anyone has time to reply I would be grateful. Many Thanks roses

by currio 13.12.13 20:01

On Fri 22 Nov, I first noticed the donation button returned the message, store being updated. I checked it every day from there for 4/5 days until other forum members seemed to pick up on it too....so I felt I didn't need to any longer :)

I think it went out the Wed of that week??...since I was prompted by another poster that posted a few days earlier about it. will post the thread for you.

Thank you Currio.

Been visiting this site a few years now but only just registered so trying to find my way around and using search facility. Dont want to be a pest so was trying to find out on my own , to no avail unfortunately .

My brother is a website developer and it has been this that has helped me to finally convince him that something is amiss with this whole case.
I thought it had been since about mid November but wasnt sure.

Thank you again.

I tried to watch the CW video there a few times and got crossover from another video and then a gallery of family photos started up. Lots of weird things happening. Then the soundtrack gave way to loud music. At this point I gave up. My feeling was that the CW prog was being sabotaged - IMO.

Major media coverage on Mandela this week, been a while since any McCann coverage and in my opinion they or a 'source' always generate some sort of drivel to overshadow or ride on the coat tails of any major event for publicity. Why nothing this time, a huge missed opportunity to protest innocence or to confuse the general public.

In my opinion, thats a bit weird .

Well we still have the weekend..

Was it the CW program that made you question TYI?

Don't be afraid to ask questions, if we don't know the answers we can point you in the right direction smilie

The search for me is a big struggle....For instance I wanted to go back to the Exeter connection but search gave me nothing. Typing in Exeter gives nothing. I tend to just keep refreshing on the Portal, but that means things Ive read before are gone because Im thinking I will miss points if I dont keep up....Search on here is hard, even on advanced. Ive given up on it.....Any tips would be helpful roses

Hi Cristobell

The moment I saw them do their first 'appeal' I just thought nah, to use a Belfast term nah

. A gut feeling.

Then the fairytale of the bed time routine, all on the sofa together for a story, sorry scrap that I mean the crease and ruffle resistant bed and milk etc and I thought ok maybe its just me but if I was inclined to dump my kids at creche every day of a holiday and go on a bender every night then bedtime would be a bit of a rush job, I must point out I am not like that at all but I have a good imagination!
Also, I wouldnt give a 3 yr old a drink at bedtime unless they were in a nappy, i doubt Madeleine was as she seemed advanced for her age, and unless I am sure she could / would wake to go to the toilet, which I believe the parents disputed in quashing the wake and wander theory.

Goodness, it is difficult to put thoughts on screen as eloquently as they sound in my head, credit to you all.

Try searching via Google - type in what you want to search for, followed by site:jillhavern.forumotion.net

Much more effective than the internal search function.
