    That site has been up for a few years now, and its safe to say its pretty much dead now. Hasnt been offers posted for over 3 months.

    And calling it hot-UK-deals probably didn't help

    Yep.. but things didn't end too well.

    I got a transcript (via an apparent "data leak" on HUKD) of a private Skype chat between a few fellow mods and one of the Admins there slated me and called me a lazy "see-you-next-Tuesday". There's a whole lot of history with the whole thing and being referred to as that was ironic given that I was waiting for basic features to be rolled out on HUKD for 16 - 18 months.

    Got an apology from said admin but too little, too late.

    I've nothing to do with them anymore.. and while I don't specifically hold a grudge towards them, I'm quietly suspicious about their whole operation.

    There was a massive thread on the now defunct DealSelecta on this leak which was pretty damning.
