I messaged Neilson too and all I got was a standard “we are aware and are investigating. Neilson does not condone discrimination of any sort”. I responded to say that I didn’t think was a sufficiently clear response and they just reiterated that it was being investigated.
I’m not in Banchory but in Aberdeenshire and there’s a lot of unfavourable chat about them in my workplace too. How can they have the front to show their faces around the place?!
I'm flipping annoyed about Neilson .
They were reported to ASA last year over the Greece holiday with chums not declared as freebie.
The ASA said despite medrums takeover of Neilson social media which sheep expected they did out of goodness of their own cold hearts.
This to me was clear editorial control and demonstrates some sort if undisclosed business relationship as when I go away with TUI they don't give me control and access to their Insta page.
The ASA said it came under remit of CMA as it was gift not an AD.
I highly suspect the Neilson Italian job was also kindly gifted.
It was in their interest to not have it marked as AD.
Now they declared ski for free there's been less engagement and low veiws.
So as far as I'm concerned they both decided to bend the rules to suit them and be shady.
Looking at their pics on social media they hardly diverse and they not affordable to most families.
Who knows if racism means they will severed what I feel is longstanding business arrangement that I reckon started before 2018 even.
