Yeah, I think it's auto up dating, but it's going to close down.

Does that mean it's giving the guy an income while it's auto updating and people are still using it?

In my inbox this morning

You and mollers need to get your bloody facts right, Metcheck is not closing down and you really shouldn’t believe everything you read in the papers, everyone with a brain knows that!!!!!!!!!!!

Seems I guessed wrongly regarding metcheck, my apologies to anyone concerned.

[Mollers]

Yeah, Metcheck is still alive, personally I no longer use it. As for the other 'Facts'. These are 'facts' dealt with by Exeter Crown Court not tittle tattle banded about by red top newspapers.

Your man was very aware of what he was doing and now he's paying for his actions.

Doug/Mollers, is there a username associated with the messages you recieved? If the sender has something they would like to share with the wider community we would I am sure be interested to give him/her a fair hearing.

It appears that Andrew Bond was the man behind Metcheck:

Therefore if their are other owners, and Andrew is no longer part of the picture I am surprised that they have not made any public statement to that effect at the time or indeed now (and that the above page is still live on their site). Especially since this is not the only site that highlighted the connection.

Well said Mollers!

There are three Andrew Bonds in Exeter according to the electoral register. So perhaps just an unfortunate coincidence?

Very very unlikely- the whois address for metcheck tallies with the street name given in the newspaper.

It's not just on here that the link has been made.
Quote from a photography forum

A couple of weeks ago I was thinking about starting a thread to highlight just how rubbish and wildly inaccurate Metcheck was, but never got around to it.

Anyhoo, over the last few days I've tried logging on to Metcheck to see if it's excelling itself at crap forecasting, only to find that the site has been down. As it's been down for several days, I decided to do a bit of googling.

It turns out the owner of Metcheck is the same Andrew Bond that was recently sentenced to 8 years for raping a 14 year old boy and possessing child pornography spanning all 5 levels of seriousness.

The story is covered here http://www.sentryparentalcontrols.co...and-abuse.aspx - PLEASE bear in mind that it does describe his crimes - it says nothing more than is reported on the news but if it's deemed inappropriate please feel free to delete

Forecasts have been down on and off over the past weeks and the two week forecast just seems not to work
