Warning: Fairguide.com

Please note that VisitScotland/Scottish Tourist Board has no association with Construct Data Verlag GmbH (‘Construct Data’) which produces the www.fairguide.com, a website listing events and organisers from around the world. We also have no affiliation with any other listing company, including expo guide, who might contact you.

We would like to draw your attention to the sales practices of Construct Data, which have resulted in complaints by our Exhibitors. Construct Data contacts Exhibitors by mail, prominently displaying the name of the show attended by the Exhibitors and using the name of VisitScotland/Scottish Tourist Board. The mailing asks Exhibitors to send the form back to confirm that their details are correct. By signing the form the Exhibitor is committing to a full sized listing on fairguide.com, at a cost shown in small print, for three years or more, if no notice of cancellation is given within 10 days of the form being returned by the Exhibitor. This wording is contained in small print on the form and should be read carefully.

It is important that any organisation that feels it was mislead by Fairguide or any other company with a similar offer into signing a contract notifies them immediately. Please visit the following website for further information and next steps http://www.aeo.org.uk/page.cfm/link=87

Please pass this information to your exhibiting partners.
