Post by: kevin b on June 08, 2009, 11:25:07 AM: Could you enlighten us Ann as we were intending putting a large sum in Fortis when we move over to Turkey.
I must say that Alper has given me advice on banking free & with no obligation & others on here speak highly of him.

Post by: Scunner on June 08, 2009, 11:41:10 AM: Anne, in fairness Alper won't have authority to make donations so would he not have asked his bosses and reported back that they planned to, only for them to change their mind later? I can't see how he deserves this.

Post by: karaokemark on June 08, 2009, 13:22:24 PM: I spoke to Alper to ask him what happened re sponsorship for the Carnival.He told me he sent all the information to head office, to be told due to the economic climate they had pulled out of all sponsorship deals in Turkey for the forseeable future.
Anne I am a customer and a friend of Alpers so if there is more to this then I think you should share it with us

Post by: busybee on June 08, 2009, 14:10:38 PM: In all fairness to Alper he tried really hard to persuade his seniors to sponsor the Carnival. He was very embarassed that they wouldn't part with any money.

Hi Mercury,
ihave never had to chance to meet you but i feel you are judging me unfairly. When I was trying to get sponsorship for the carnaval and I tried my best but unfortunately the decision was not mine to make. If you wish to know any details please ask Pete or chrissie.

regards

alper

P.s: My references are my customers . :)

Are you working this week? Our partners need to open a new bank account as soon as possible as we are waiting for some money to be paid into it from our insurance company.

If you are I will get them to call and ask for you.

Thanks

Post by: mercury on June 11, 2009, 22:06:13 PM: Hi Alper. I agree we have never met and maybe I have judged u unfairly. I am however on the committee and do speak to the others. I am happy that your customers are pleased.

Post by: Pi55y on June 17, 2009, 09:05:56 AM: BusyBee is right, Alper, who is a very nice guy, really did try his best for us and was trying for weeks to get sponsorship but unfortunately his head office would not sponsor so he could do nothing about it. Maybe we will have better luck with Fortis next year
