Review of Remarkable Flowers from 13 February 2013
I hope that some of Mark Boyd’s family have been reading these reviews and takes some action! This man has ruined so many people’s lives. He has left them in a lot of debt and he does not give a dam about them. There’s just so much more he has done that is too lewd to be put on this public form. He got tens of thousands out of a friend of mine. Bled him dry. It’s a pity that he didn’t have his 15 minutes of infamy on the Nolan Show. To get the word out that this person is NOT welcome in our community. Mark, it’s truly pathetic that you have been bombarded the show with texts as to how you’ve been harassed…. how can you live with yourself when you harassed a woman into an early grave? As I said before I wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire. And that’s being polite about it!!!!

  • A lucky bride!, 13 February 2013:

    Does anyone know what church he currently goes to?

  • Ontohim, 14 February 2013:

    I have heard fropm a reputable source- that MB isn’t a Christian, but that he goes to churches and preys on people – because Christians are more forgiving and guilliable. He told me he was at Whitewell. I doubt it – he hasn’t transport, but the elders of that church have been advised that if he shows up to be aware.
    He is also good at dropping names- I have just heard from someone that has known him for years that MB has been saying that his Ex has written letters to him say she wants to help him out and go on this journey with him. Couldnt be futher from the truth.
    He is a deluded and sick individual.

    He lives in his little made up world. And that would be ok if he was 8 but not when your 42

  • Used25, 15 February 2013:

    I am shocked at the stories here.
    One of the biggest shocks is that he had a girlfriend.
    As a gay man I dated him for a few months and am amazed he is bi.
    He told me he was a doctor at the Ulster Hospital and had all the gear to prove it, uniform etc.
    When I found out about the shop he told me it was a business sideline.
    He is a compulsive liar and fantasist.
    The stories involving elderly people are appalling. I honestly didn’t think he was this bad, I just thought he was sad, lonely and had a lot of issues to sort.

  • eveningstar, 16 February 2013:

    Well that was what I was hinting about him visiting the Giant’s ring. I knew about his pathetic attempts to pass himself off as a doctor. The more I hear about MB from everyone I draw the conclusion that he must have a mental imbalance. He’s clearly a sociopath or some other related disorder.

    However, this does in no way excuse his disgusting behaviour to the OAPs he’s ripped off.

    As I have stated many times before. HE HAS TO BE STOPPED!

  • theexdriver, 18 February 2013:

    the shop has been closed since xmas eve, rumour has it a supplier who owned most of the stuff on display there (unpaid for of course) returned and emptied the place. weather or not it’s closed for good is anybodys guess.

  • kaluvikyal, 20 February 2013:

    Could somebody please tell me what Mark Boyd and the connection to the Giants Ring is all about, seems im having a blonde time not understanding what its all about..

    Why didnt his story appear on the Nolan show?

    Something else im wondering about, Is Mark Married? As he told us he had twin sons at the time they were 6yrs old, but he told my sister he had twin girls who where 18?

    He also said he had been a model and that he also had recovered from a brain haemmorage is any of that true?

    My god these stories are really scarey im so glad we never encountered anything like this, seems we had a lucky escape!

  • eveningstar, 20 February 2013:

    Okay MB question and answer

    1) The Giant’s ring A well known gay cruising spot set amongst a neolithic earthworks

    2) The show did not air because of several reasons such as more important issues, he sent threatening texts or perhaps they thought he had a mental disorder or something. It’s a pity as I would really like him taken apart

    3)He doesn’t have any children he is definitely not married and this is all another pack of lies to gain your sympathy

    4) To my knowledge he has never had a brain hemorrhage

    5) I don’t think he was a model unless he was modeling vegetables

    6) Yes you did have a lucky escape!

  • timeformoretruths, 20 February 2013:

    hi everyone…i havent been on this site in recent weeks but woah look at all the newbies sharing their experiences and stories of Mark Boyd-well done! now please get in touch with me asap lol if you wish to help….and yes i can confirm as i was at his bedside during his recovery, he had been in hospital many years ago with a problem/surgery to his brain which he made full recovery from.
    I CURRENTLY AM SEEKING PEOPLE TO COME FORWARD AND WHO WILL AGREE TO SPEAK TO A NEWSPAPER REPORTER ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH MARK BOYD.

    IF YOU WERE A UNHAPPY BRIDE AND DIDN’T GET THE FULL SERVICE OF WHAT HE HAD TALKED TO YOU ABOUT/PROMISED TO YOU

    OR

    A BRIDE TO BE WHO HAS PAID HER DEPOSIT OT HIM AND HASN’T GOT IT BACK OR HEARD FROM HIM SINCE ABOUT FUTURE APPOINTMENTS AND FLOWERS FOR THEIR WEDDING

    OR

    HAVE YOU LOANED HIM MONEY AND HE STILL HASN’T REPAID IT BACK TO YOU.

    OR

    ANY OTHER INFORMATION THAT YOU MAY HAVE AND COULD HELP EXPOSE MARK BOYD

    THIS IS OUR LAST CHANCE HERE AND I NEED PEOPLE WHO ARE COMMITTED TO HELP AND NOT WASTE TIME EITHER… TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE HERE AND I DON’T WISH TO BE TAKING ANOTHER 5 WEEKS OF MY TIME OUT DOING THIS AND STILL NO RESULT WITH THIS FEATURE.

    YOUR NAME CAN BE USED OR WITHHELD IF YOU WISH BUT ITS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU AGREE TO MEET AND TELL THE REPORTER YOUR STORY.

    PLEASE EMAIL ME DIRECT TO me2u.4ever43@yahoo.co.uk
    WITH YOUR NAME AND A CONTACT NUMBER AND IF ITS WEDDINGS/MONEY/OTHER THAT YOU WISH TO TALK ABOUT. IF YOU DON’T WISH TO BE INVOLVED SIMPLY DO NOT REPLY OR EMAIL ME…YOUR SILENCE WILL BE TAKEN AS NO COMMENT AND YOUR NAME REMOVED FROM MAILING LIST,

    STEPHEN NOLAN SHOW HAVE SHELVED THE FEATURE SO FAR AND UNCONFIRMING IF WILL BE USED IN NEXT SERIES…EITHER WAY I PERSONALLY BELIEVE IT WONT BE AND TIME IS TICKING HERE AND MARK BOYD NEEDS EXPOSED ASAP BECAUSE TRUST ME…EVEN THOUGH HE IS FULLY AWARE OF THE SHOW INVESTIGATING HIM IT HASN’T STOPPED HIM FROM WHAT HE DOES BEST AND IS STILL TAKING MONEY FROM PEOPLE AND CAUSING HASSLE AND SPINNING OFF HIS LIES TO SUIT HIM AND NO ONE HAS RECEIVED ANY MONIES LATELY!!
    MAJORITY OF PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE NOT AWARE OF HIM AND WHAT IS ON GOING HERE, PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT QYPE AND FACEBOOK ….SO USING THE NEWSPAPERS NOW IS THE NEXT LAST RESORT I HAVE TO USE.

    MANY THANKS

  • gillykins, 20 February 2013:

    Mark did tell me he had twin boys who were 18 and when they were 6 or 7 they modelled for GAP he even showed my mum and I pictures of them.

    Mark told me the reason he opened the shop was because he suffered a brain hemorrage and as part of this recovery he took up,flower arranging and then realised thTmitnwas actually a calling from Gof which is why it is called ReMARKable flowers cus God gave him the strength for a remarkable recovery!!!!

    When I was booking my flowers for my wedding back in 2008, I went to wedding show in the odyssey and picked up their free magazine which had a huge article of mark, we had been great friends years ago and had lost touch I was so lucky to have come across him in the mag, my wedding flowers were beautiful and everything was great although he did forget my mother and mother in laws flowers to be given to them at the reception which was hugly embarrassing!! And like other brides he did cancel a lot of appointments

    having read all these stories about Mark I am clearly shocked at everything but NOT surprised. He is obviously ill which is also sad butnhemmustnhave some sort of mental disorder!!!!!!

    He also did my brother in laws wedding and when he came to the day he wasmmeant to be a guest but an hr before the meal told us his mum had had a heart attack, is this true!!!!!!’

  • kaluvikyal, 20 February 2013:

    Why the Nolan show? Why not every in newspaper Belfast prints?

    He cannot sue for libel as the stories are true?

    Cant those who have been scammed take this con artist to court?

    Its surreal this story was pushed aside on The Nolan Show in favour of a dwarf who pays for sex!

  • eveningstar, 20 February 2013:

    LOL

    You seriously couldn’t make up this stuff if you tried.

    I would not believe MB if he told me the sky was blue and rain came downwards. He’s a complete and utter liar. He doesn’t know the difference between the truth and a lie.

    He didn’t start up the shop due to him get a bump on his head. He started up the shop with someone else’s money to get a bit of money to pay that poor man back!!!1

    He’s such a fecking liar. I swear to god. I’d love to speak my mind to him one of these days.

    It wasn’t called reMarkable flowers because that twat had the idea it was my friend who came up with the name. He’d have a blood vessel burst in his head if he treid to have an original thought!

    It’s a well worn ploy by MB to evoke god to make sure his ventures are god-backed. Being from Norn Iron myself, once someone starts quote scripture or envokes god then that’s when I head to the hills. Self delusion on overdrive!!!

    He doesn’t have flower arranging skills of his own, he was taught those by Liz who he used to work with. She’d do most of the work and loathsome slimy mark would take all the credit.

    Yes I would agree he does have a mental disorder. I think it’s called he doesn’t give a feck about anyone as long as he gets what he wants… or being more serious for a moment he’s probably sociopathic. However, just because someone has a mental disorder e.g. schizophrenia it doesn’t make it any easier for the victim’s families after a fatal stabbing. Equally, after a bride has been let down, or someone has been tortured into an early grave, or someone has had their life savings nicely removed by the lovely Mark Boyd, then my sympathy is with the victim rather than the perpetrator.

  • eveningstar, 20 February 2013:

    I know some might think this a bit harsh but he needs to be isolated from the community as he IS a threat to that community. All the OAPs need to be made aware of him and what he’s capable of. Many will no doubt tut tut about this, until it’s one of their relatives then it will be all about why wasn’t something done about him.

    I know the police have been fully aware of his antics, but they are powerless unless someone makes a complaint;

    Too many people are too worried about what people might think, or have got themselves into situations where they cannot speak out.

    So, the upshot of this is the lovely Mark is still free to prowl about for his next hapless victim.

    I know hat I would have done it was my parents he’d targeted… he’d have no call to go cruising at the Giant’s Ring anymore pathetic and all that is…

  • kaluvikyal, 20 February 2013:

    Tell you what, IF this had happened to me or a member of my family, Mr Mark wouldn’t have known what hit him. As id have held a vigil outside his flower shop telling anything with a set of ears what kind of person he is..

    He’d have had tables turned on him by knowing how it feels like to be stalked harassed and hounded!

    His flower shop doesn’t sell wreathes but believe me he’d have been picking out a nice arrangement for himself different flowers for his different personalities – as Id have bate the bake clean off him

    The only modelling he really would have been up for would be dental work and facial reconstruction!! as I’m a very vengeful person and have made sure he wouldn’t do to anybody else if he’d done any of this to me and mine!!

  • eveningstar, 20 February 2013:

    LOL remind me never to cross you…. But you are absolutely right. He has no idea nor does he care the damage, the pain and the heartache he’s caused. I can only explain such disregard as being the result of a mental disorder, as no other person could do so much and not feel remorse.

  • kaluvikyal, 20 February 2013:

    In actual fact he’s giving people with Mental Health Problems a bad name!

  • theexdriver, 21 February 2013:

    was told by a source who went along to the show the reason it was dropped was the reporter working on the piece was bombarded by mb with threatening texts saying if they exposed him he was at the end of his teather and they pulled it because they were scared he would kill himself. wilst telling the bbc this he was at the same time continuing to pray on vulnerable oaps. shame on the nolan show, you shuda given him directions to b&q with directions to the rope isle and called his bluff !!!! he aint got the balls. he’s a desperate little worm grasping at straws and nolan fell for it.

  • eveningstar, 21 February 2013:

    He’s pulled this stunt a couple of times with my friend. Saying that the local newspaper headlines would say “Local florist takes his own life”.

    My friend is far too soft and MB knows this and so MB gains sympathy. I. on the other hand would say if you are going to talk about it, then stop talking about it and DO IT.

    So perhaps some people who have posted on here supporting MB would be all shocked and bothered.

    What Crap! If he did it, then thankfully that would spare a few more OAPs from the same fate. What I heard only recently about yet another vulnerable OAP, I’d go out and get the best quality rope for him.

    I have no sympathy for this cretin. None at all. He’s the lowest of the low.

    I hope Mark you are reading this. You know who I am. You know what you did. You are beneath the lowest creature that ever crept on the ground. You cloak yourself in religious clap trap and expect people to swallow it. Drop dead you scumbag.

  • theexdriver, 22 February 2013:

    i hope he’s reading this to evening star. least he will know the end is coming!!! he’s pissed off to many now who wont be silenced and are going to see him stopped. or at least warn as many people as we can.

  • Ontohim, 13 February 2013:

    Remarkable hasnt been open since after Christmas time- I am assuming that he has closed for good- cant imagine him opening again.

  • A lucky bride!, 13 February 2013:

    Anyone know if its gonna be on the Nolan show tonight ?

  • gillykins, 13 February 2013:

    I don’t think so,it wasn’t mentioned on the ad earlier!!!!!

  • A lucky bride!, 13 February 2013:

    :( aw I’ve been eagerly waiting for weeks and tonights is the last in the series! :(
    his day will come though!

  • Ontohim, 13 February 2013:

    I was informed by journalist for Nolan that it isnt on tonight. It is very disappointing. There are a lot of us that have been waiting for ages. :(

  • theexdriver, 13 February 2013:

    was told that the supplier who owned most of the stuff on display in his shop has paid a visit and cleaned the place out. wat the hell is nolan playing at??? who’s for the sunday papers ???? lol. nolan had his chance!!!!!

  • A lucky bride!, 13 February 2013:

    here here taxi man!!

  • Ontohim, 13 February 2013:

    if Nolan isn’t doing show – it needs to be done, would the papers do the job? MB needs to stopped.

  • eveningstar, 13 February 2013:

    It’s another option with probably as much exposure. So, yes it’s worth exploring. If Nolan cant be bothered about vulnerable being deliberately targeted by this creep then hopefully the papers could pick up the crusade?

  • pinkfish, 18 February 2013:

    I was the last wedding mark did at the end of december. I have to say that even though I got the lies, excuses etc , he gave me money back for messing me around and our flowers where really lovely , just what we asked for. I am so stunned to hear how much people dislike him! I cant understand that even tho he nearly drove me to an early grave with his excuses and cancellations , it all came ok in the end!

  • eveningstar, 18 February 2013:

    I guess then that you were very lucky! There’s no doubt that he has talent (probably gleaned from Liz whom he used to work with) however, what you have experienced is not usually the norm. Also, a professional business man is not someone who makes continuous excuses and cancels meeting at the last moment…

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 13 February 2013
I got married just on Friday, however in the run up both my partner n I went into c mark. The promises he made us was like a fairytale and so we paid £100 and booked him. After coming home and putting on facebook about yey we have booked our flowers with remarkable, comments started flowing to get our money back and run a mile. We straight away went back up in made an excuse that someone had already booked r flowers but it wasnt that easy. Two days of excuses we had had enough so we went back up to try and get our money back. He then turned quite nasty. He kept sayin oh I have to wait for my PA to get the money..Like seriously who was he tryin to fool. We sat outside the shop refusing to move. He eventually came out in began to close up shop. So we approached him again. He did then go to atm and get our money but the hassle and stress we went through was unbelievable. The lis he told us was unreal. 

I am now married and used a local florist Norah Mitchell. There service was reliable and more than we could have ever expected. 

Mark you are a conman who does deserve to be exposed. Im so pleased to see the shutters are now down and will never again open.

Thankgod we changed our minds on time

  • eveningstar, 10 February 2013:

    I think there is no need to apologise, I guess it’s natural to defend someone, however, whenever the ground has been taken out from beneath your feet, it’s very unsettling. MB is a confidence trickster. I really think he has a psychological disorder. He has no compassion for his victims and informs them that the money is “God’s” money. I think that tells a lot about his personality.

    However, this is irrelevant if he has some mental disorder, as it’s more important that he’s stopped. That’s why getting the message out through the media and word of mouth is vital. It’s so important people know what he is like and not to lend him any money under any circumstances.

    There have been people who have literally lost everything and I mean everything because of him. And he has no remorse or feelings or regret.

    Anyway, let’s see what happens on Wednesday night…

    BTW it’s NOT a valid argument (which I have heard) to say well, he made lovely flower displays, who gives a flying f**k what he’s good at, it’s how he has and always has done. From a long time ago… I know what he has done and if it was me I couldn’t live with myself.

  • kerri13, 10 February 2013:

    I cant post on here what he has done its appalling and due to the circumstances i cant openly wrie about it! I feel so sick and if he was infront of me ryt now id do damage! There is a need to apoligise i was the neverjudge person who was very rude possibly to urself but at that time it was my experience once again im sorry i cannot believe all this what a prick :((( xxx

  • eveningstar, 10 February 2013:

    Must be bad if you cannot post about it openly on here….

    No, if anything, I was probably a bit forthright in my indignation lol. In other words I didn’t want him to even have the slightest bit of sympathy as it might just make him believable to someone else in a vulnerable situation to him.

  • kerri13, 10 February 2013:

    No no i take full blame and hope the evil pig gets no more sympathy and believe me once i get the green light i will tell all the man is pure evil i swear what he has done is soooooooo evil i wanna spill it all out arrrgggghhhh its eatin me but it will all be out i cant believe what an evil shithead he is im so shocked and ashamed to even have spoke to him i dnt even know him that well but to think he stood and coooood over my kids i really do feel sick! Sorry about this rant but its eatin me lol MARK BOYD is an evil conman and needs to be stopped do u have any isea what the police are doing about this? Xx

  • theexdriver, 11 February 2013:

    what police are doing is simple . at moment waiting and watching they know all about him but the folk who are being taken for thousands by him refuse to give statements so their hands are tied. best way forward is through trading standards!!! brides need to complain to them. also inland revenue.

  • scently, 11 February 2013:

    To kerri13 if you contact the Nolan show you can leave your story anonymously. they will use an actor to state your words. itys no good just putting it on here. please contact the Nolan show.

  • eveningstar, 11 February 2013:

    Has anyone got contact details for the Nolan show as I need to give a statement of what I know about MB. Thanks.

  • theexdriver, 11 February 2013:

  • Ontohim, 12 February 2013:

    Hey I have just seen this- OMG Kerri13 I totally feel for you- I was in a similar place. Mark led me to believe that he had romantic (boke!!!) feelings for me, and I foolishly believed him. At the same time he was lying and decieving me about his first ever bad financial situtation that he found himself in, which was no fault of his own. Not only did he leave me in such a terrible financial mess he also took me on an emotional rollercoaster. I was totally convinced he was telling the truth for months, he had me isolated from my friends/family because I was embarrassed to tell them what had happened and what a terrible state he left me in.
    Everyone has been affected in one way or another. Give yourself time to get through this. I agree he must be bought to task and exposed.

  • kerri13, 12 February 2013:

    Oooooo no it wasnt a romantic thing infact i actually thought and still do think hes gay! Hes a waste of skin and will have to pay for what hes done! Xx

  • Ontohim, 12 February 2013:

    what I mean is that he lies, everything he says is lies, what he did to me, what he did to your friend, all that comes out of his mouth – just lies- why because he is so selfish- the most selfish person I’ve ever met – it always is about him
    But the thing is – we will get through whatever happened to us, and we all probably have more going for us than he ever will do. He lives in his deluded world

  • kerri13, 17 February 2013:

    Can someone give me the crimestoppers number for this matter please xx

  • eveningstar, 17 February 2013:

    0800 555 111 is Crimestopper’s contact number. Good luck….

  • timeformoretruths, 20 February 2013:

    hi Kerri…Andrea here:) you know how i feel from our recent chats abouts MB’s latest stunt and sinking so low the git should be right down there with the Devil!!
    as i told you before your the only person who has had the balls to come back onto qype and admitt you were wrong after sticking up for MB and we do appreciate it. wish more people like you would come forward.
    Yes he has duped the lot of us for many years, me inclcuded for 33 years!! but hey you already know how i feel as do majority of people who know me.
    least we all singing from the same hymn sheet here and that MB has to be stopped and some justice brought to all this.
    i really do hope this next new stage of newspaper and them on board will help our cause because trust me ive my whole heart and soul into this and worked my ass off and my fingers too and many numerous phone calls all for the Nolan show and its been wasted as they didnt run the story and now highly unlikely they will in the next series:( i sure wont be wasting my time with no results 2nd time round here! yes the police know about him and as already said by exdriver…people are relucant to put their name down against any statements that they give, people didnt want to be on the tv and their name and reputation connected to Mark Boyd and what he has done. I will write my name in CAPITALS and sign my life away….anything i have to say about mark is all true and i know i would pass a lie dectector test..he for one would fail 100%!!
    watch this space with the newspapers and i shall be in touch 1-1 with you in days to come. You have a lot to deal with Kerri…and take some strength from it all knowing you have new friends on board who are here for you and know exactly how you feel on this rollarcoaster MB has us all on!! xx

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 7 February 2013
My son and daughter in law got married last May and this man was recommended to them by a work colleague.  My daughter in law has just told me tonight that there was supposed to be an exposé on the Nolan show last week and she also showed me this site.  I went to all of the meetings with her to the shop at Belmont and he was very charming (smarmy) , promised lots, dismissed competitors, said his prices could not be beaten in terms of value for money and he showed us some samples, which were really lovely.  However, my daughter in law had already paid in full and in the 2 months leading up to the wedding he led us a merry (not) dance.  She was absolutely distressed, he cancelled many appointments, and we tried desperately to pin him down, but had to listen to many false promises which he did not deliver on the day.  The flowers arrived in a taxi to my house on the morning and they were not what we had asked for and he had said we would get, my heart sank as I knew she would be so disappointed. Even worse, when I arrived at the church with the boys, the church had not been decorated as promised, her Aunt had been furious with Mark and he came running up to me apologising and said he would pay back 300pounds as a good will gesture (we are still waiting). Finally we arrived a the reception and again I could have cried, he hadn't even started and whe he finished it was a vase on each table, water and a flowered, no candles, foliage, top table, so so so gutted.  All in all he treated them disgracefully, took the money and couldn't care less.  However as we said, it was only flowers and we had a wonderful day but NEVER EVER use this man to do your wedding flowers

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 7 February 2013
Hi All,

I've been reading these comments left by others - I am dismayed to find how many have been left in the lurch and in debt to this scale

But I only feel its fair to share my own story about Mark.

6 years ago my daughter was getting married, we did the rounds checking out other florists as in all honesty my Daughter did not give us a lot of notice, working within a budget we found Mark to be the cheapest.

Mark was lovely, helpful and friendly, when he became aware of our situation really pulled out all the stops - nothing was too much trouble, he suggested we if wanted could spread the costs of the flowers and pay by installments, this doesn't seem to be the mindset of a master conman. 

Mark also got the job for my 2 nieces weddings - his work is as his name states Remarkable.

My sister and I arranged a Charity night in my Nephews honor - he had been killed a few yrs before - Mark gave us a beautiful Floral Arrangement to be used as a raffle prize.

I cannot fault this guy whatsoever - I know people are saying how let down they've been but in all sincerity that never happened to us. 

I can state here and now - I am not related to Mark in anyway neither have I ever been employed by him, I'm just a satisfied customer.

  • ACS131, 7 February 2013:

    I do believe that he was an honest businessman once- I booked him based on pictures that I had seen of two weddings of women I knew and thought their flowers were beautiful. Both of these women were married at least two years before me (one of whom, I know for certain would not put up with any messing around) and couldn’t praise Mark higher. The pattern that I have seen is that, since late 2010, he has been treating brides badly. The reason for this change in attitude and behaviour I don’t know but he has certainly changed

  • scently, 8 February 2013:

    I would agree to some extent. he was an exceptionally talented person up to about 2010. but there was an element of mystery about the financial side of the business and I believe that it was being funded by borrowings. Borrow where ever he could get the money and then more and more and more. Prices were unbelievable. He gave other florists a bad name as they were thought to be ripping customers off. Because they were charging the proper rates. Neighbouring shops couldnt cope if he was giving flowers away at cost price. he was a Robin Hood robbing the well off to help the less well off, or so he thought I believe. Nothing but no one could stop him. he wasn’t always like this but recently seems totally off the scale. and out of control. he wouldnt listen to advice from anybody. Its not the actions of a man who was running a successful business. It was a bottomless pit where money was concerned. No money to pay overheads, and essentials like rent, rates and electricty. Exposure painful as it is is the only way that will stop him before more people get hurt and loose their life savings.

  • eveningstar, 9 February 2013:

    So what you are saying scently, is that MB basically wanted as they say in Norn Iron to play the “Big man”, and because of doing so, indirectly put other people’s livelihoods at risk?

    Really, just when you think he’s reached the bottom of the pit there’s a whole new area to depravity to explore.

    Nice person.

  • eveningstar, 9 February 2013:

    I must admit that MB seems to exhibit many sociopathic qualities/characteristics.

  • ACS131, 9 February 2013:

    http://www.mcafee.cc/Bin/sb.html

    Diagnosis seems spot on!

  • eveningstar, 9 February 2013:

    Absolutely spot on. If anyone had read those characteristics to me then MB would be the first person that I would have thought of.

    Just heard the Remarkable piece has been pulled off tonight’s show. Its going out next week.

    That’s a real pity as it’s possible it might be taken off all together as I think next week is the last show.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 5 February 2013
I used remarkable flowers because my sister in law recommended Mark to me, and I was only told to check the internet on Sunday when my mother in law mention the stuff that apparently is being wrote about him on the internet... Well I can't say I was expecting stuff this bad!! 

I had a few problems with Mark but thankfully non to this extent. Appointments that I turned up and him not bothering his ass. Had some excuses threw at me which I am now assuming where lies. I tried to contact him many of times and I was searching online for a number when a telegraph listing came up about remarkable flowers being bankrupt and eventually when we did get in touch and this was brought up to him he told us it was the shop before him that was in that unit that had gone bankrupt. On my wedding day there were flowers missing to decorate my ceremony room, until this was pointed out to him and he took flowers from my centrepiece's to decorate this room. Also my mum had asked for her flower to be for her wrist and when it came it turned out to be something completely different and couldn't even be used.

The meetings I did have with Mark Boyd have been very pleasant, and I am truly shocked and appalled at the things I have read. I know my mother in law is having trouble taking it in, but its in her nature to see the good in people.

Edited to add that I have just learnt that she was also asked by him for a loan of money!

    If you do one thing and I am sure you DO NOT lend this conman any money, you will definitely not see it again. He got thousands out of a friend of mine and I don’t think he’s paid back anything.

    There’s much worse to MB, and a lot that I wouldn’t discuss on open forum, let’s just say he’s got some very disgusting habits…. There’s nothing saintly about the lovely Mark Boyd. He should be hanging his head in shame.

    So if there’s anyone out there still defending him, for heaven’s sake wake up and smell the coffee!

    Anyway, in case you were not aware, the Nolan show is going to be broadcasting an expose of MB tomorrow night, so I would advise it to be compulsory viewing.

    I defended him before and for that i totally take bak i was Neverjudge or sumfin i truely am sorry cuz ya wanna hear the story i just got tld by a closer than close friend i cant write about it in the open but my god wat a c**t i could kill him ryt now!

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 2 February 2013
No longer living in Belfast but amazed that this story continues to confuse people.  Mark Boyd told me he was a doctor in the Ulster Hospital when I met him years ago - on a visit to the Giant's Ring. He still owes me a very small amount of money for petrol when it would seem he lied about having no cash in his wallet. Old habits......

  • eveningstar, 2 February 2013:

    LOL he told me that he was a brain surgeon! So the doctor story is a complete lie! I am also guessing that MB likes to take in the Neolithic attractions of Belfast! And yes, he was probably telling you yet another one of his little fibs about the money in his wallet.

  • eveningstar, 2 February 2013:

    I also see that his star rating has dropped to 2 stars so a truer reflection of the quality of his service! Though zero stars would be correct.
    Anyone confused then google the giant’s ring belfast and see what pops up…

  • timeformoretruths, 20 February 2013:

    at last the gay life of mark boyd is coming outa the closet lol!!!!
    for many years since a teenageer everyone who grow up with him saw the tendancies there and as the years went on, we all got older we waited patiently for him to say ‘hey im gay everyone’ he never did! even when he lived with guy in bangor we had hoped he would be honest about it all-after all whats the big deal! and each to there own for sexuality. but he never did … he kept coming forward with ‘girlfriends’ who were more like trophies on the end of his arm and they never ever lasted either! strangers who met him for first time and non wiser who he was automatically had him down as a gay man! im sure more gaymen who have met him at the gaints ring have their own story to share too…..please can i state here…..whatever exposure comes of Mark Boyd isnt aimed at his sexuality! its down to the money he owed people and how he has lied and conned us all and the bad service he has gave to brides to be. yes we all asking where and what has he done with all theses monies he has got over a 20 year span…….watch this space and newspapers for a result and some answers hiopefully!!!!

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 2 January 2013
(updated on 28 January 2013 )
Hello Everyone....My name is Andrea and im sticking my two bits worth about Mark Boyd and Remarkable into this group and my dealing with him..may as well seeing as Mark Boyd has already wrongly accused me of writting a letter to him and sent a copy to his mother for which i will publicly now use this site to say I DID NOT SEND NO LETTER and you can go show or talk to your solicitor all you want Mark because your threats to me this week do not bother or worry me one bit in the slightest and at the end of the day you will not bully or harrass me into silence because for as long as i breathe and live i shall speak the truth and have no shame in sharing my recent dealings with you to everyone and anyone.
I would definately pass any lie detecter test.....the thing is Mark we all know that you would fail!!!!!!!

I'm fully aware that Mark and his friends are on this group too and reading every post that someone makes....heres another one for yous to digest!

Some reading this will say...ohh i know her, some of you have never met and some have recently met me but we all share common factors here and that is Mark borrowing lump sums of money from his friends, clients, employees, suppliers, buisness people he is acquainted with, with a promise from him to repay back the money and he very rarely does. Yes he has paid some people back but its a case of if you squeeze or blackmail him or even threaten him he does pay up.  Majority of people he hasnt repaid a penny too:(
The other factor is Mark letting down brides/grooms on their big wedding day and not delievering through with promises of how flowers/displays/arrangements etc etc will be and as prediscussed with him. 
Many stories are similar on this site but we each have our unique story to tell and here is mine.....

I have known Mark and his family since i went to same primary school and grew up in the same estate as him and had mutal friends too through local churches and organisations.  Over the years a friendship between the 2 families were formed and both our mums even worked together and very good friendship had formed. Ive sat at Mark's beside in hospital when he was recovering from illness a few years ago. You get the drift....Mark was my flowerist for my own wedding in 2008. Now i can not fault at all the service he gave to me and my husband and family in leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day. Yes i was a fussy attention to detail bride/groom but we just wanted it all perfect/looking wooh factor and yes all the flowers were gorgoeus and everything perfect and i/we were so happy and proud of his work and to also recommend him to friends  (which i did do).
My friend got married in the same year as me, near same time as me infact.. she too used Mark because she knew him, she grew up with him and lived in same area/same school.. and after her wedding we were talking and she told me about how disappointed she was with Mark and the problems that she occurred along the way.  Now i was suprised at the time to hear this and it always stuck in my mind 'why' ?
Naturally when my brother was getting married the family went to Mark to book him. 

2 weeks before the wedding Mark approached my father for the loan of money to help tide him over was the excuse mark gave and how he had a cheque going into his bank account and waiting for it be cleared and how he would repay in 2 days.  My father said yes and lent him the money in good faith and believed that he would be repaid in 2 days.  Like every other family out there in a time leading up to a wedding there is spare money set aside to be used for the big day and on the big day.  Money which has been earned, saved up and all accounted for too.  Something which Mark and his line of business would know only too well too.This next lot of info is relevant to know as it builds a bigger picture as Mark has ongoing form for preying on the older generation,of a vunerable nature, ill-health and geniune good natured trusting folk... folk that he knows would find it hard to say no to him and makes them believe that they are geniunely helping him out in a time of need.
My father has been of ill health over recent years, which includes heart problems and in recent months leading up to the wedding of his son he hadnt been well and was under hospital care and gp care.  All of which Mark was fully aware of.  
Mark didnt keep his promise and repay after 2days. He told lies after lies and had the nerve to ask for more money and bombarded my father with texts and phonecalls morning noon and night....even as late as bedtime.  Dad didnt give him no more money and was trying to get back the money he already loaned meanwhile my father was ill with worry, stressed to the hilt and was so agiated too and this was having effect on his chest/heart. This went on and on right up until 2 days before the wedding.
I finally learnt what was going on and I confronted Mark via telephone that i knew of his secret and all the texts he has sent my father and the missed calls and how my father still waiting to be paid. Excuses excuses he gave me, some of which my father had already told me Mark had told him. Mark finally arrived that day with the money in full...even thro a few quid extra in for a 'drink on him at the recepetion'. He tried to be himself, all nicey nice but at this point i was more concerned as my father was indoors ill! 
Mark made some comments during our brief chat i knew fine well he would not be attending as guest at the wedding, he even got dig in at me re my own situation and mentioned my now ex-husband!
Who for those that dont know, the exhusband was a previous employer until recently of Mark Boyd and he is on this site too now and has shared his experiences and what he knows...thankfully he now has been paid what he was owed in wages but had to go through the rig my roll of hounding chasing threatening mark boyd with the media in order for him to be repaid.
And yip..Mark Boyd didnt attend my brothers wedding as a guest and made an excuse that he was ill when really he was here there everywhere sneaking about and having other people lie for him too!
Helen..yes i am referring to you, lieing to my parents....i know your also on this group!

So theres 2 people repaid.....BUT the story goes on and asdly with sad ending for us as a family but makes me more adamant that my story had to be shared here and to do whatever it takes for more folk to wise up this conman and run amile in the opposite direction from him! and for those still outa pocket to either seek advise from your solicitor or the psni or the trade standards agency or the tax man!

I learnt on Christmas Eve that Mark had asked another family member of ours for money.
Elderly lady, health conditions, vulnerable and house bound as such with money in the bank.  This lady was well known to Mark and his family, he even brought her fresh bread during the week and would have been out of her home. He told her his sob story and even sat in her living crying one day..so she leant him money to help him in good faith that he would repay as promised. Then he asked a second time and she gave him another lump sum. Then he asked a 3rd time and she said no. She threatened to tell her son and insisited that Mark repay her what he owed her.  On christmas eve, my mother was with her in the afternoon and what she witnessed is now left to haunt her. Constant phone calls to house phoning ringing every 5-10minutes.  She wouldnt answer the phone as she stated that it was Mark looking for more money from her as she had spoken earlier that morning to him.  She expressed her feelings to my mother and her words were that she lived in fear of him, how she felt she couldnt even answer her own phone in her own home, she felt harrassed and couldnt take much more it all and the strain he was putting on her.  My own mother was worked up too and so angry when she left later in the day. I was worked up too and so angry that he had yet again stooped so low and again with a member of my family.  I confronted Mark via text and said how i knew about him owing more money and to pay up or i was taking this further.  Sure the replies i got back were unbelieveable!! Anyhow, sadly this relative died suddenly at the weekend. Shock to us all and we truely believe that she should be here with us today only for him doing what he has done in recent months/weeks/days and has put her in an early grave:(
Her immediate family are now aware of the harrassment she was under from him and the monies owed, the psni have been told about him too. I texted him to stay away from the funeral and not to approach our family....replies from him was more threats and lies and more lies again about my own movements that day and what i was suppose to have not done and did do!! trying to turn the tables on me as being the bad one here!! ahh right Mark.....i know what i did that day, who i spoke to and what was said!!

I have been on facebook on my own profile and the amount of people that have got in touch with me to say "I'm owed money from Mark Boyd" or "he ruint my wedding day"...is so heart breaking....friends of his, of mine and we all got a story to share.  This is not a recent thing of him borrowing money and not repaying....this goes back to years ago and been ongoing even before he took on Remarkable shop!! But the lies and constant robbing peter to rob paul is an every day practice of his.  He told my father that money was not ours but it was God's money! Makes ya wonder what or where the money has gone too??
Doe he really beilive he is God and can do what he wants when he wants to who he wants?????

From reading all the posts in this group, and trust me i have, the mind does boggle as to how he is still trading and folk still handing over money to him. Lambs to the slaughter they are. Heres hoping that karma will catch him in 2013, and he gets everything he deserves. My hands are washed off him as a friend. And if he died tomorrow i would say good ridence to very bad rubbish!!!

His mum is standing by her son, has ignored her friends that once were a part of her life but im sure she would not be amused if she knew all the lies he has told about her own health to friends/clients/ associates....god knows what lies he tells her.

I personally think that Mark is beyond telling the truth to anyone now because hes so far gone as a pathological 2 faced liar conman who needs medical attention to see if he is a schizophrenic or whatever as he has more faces than the Albert Clock!!!!!!!!

    welcome ex wife. lol. i worked on my ex brother in laws wedding and can verifie all the above to be true. the bride ordered staff to remove the table centres from the tables half way through the evening so that non of the guests could take them as gifts, they were allready dieing by that time. all flowers where left in the front hall the next morning and the staff had orders to bin them. even the brides own wedding flowers . i was there to pick stuff up the next morning and all the flowers were completely dead.
    also my ex wifes family and myself were lied to on the day of the wedding, my ex and myself were hardly speaking at the time and understandable both she and i did not want any hassle on her brothers big day. her family were told that i would be delivering the flowers to the church on the morning of the wedding before anyone arrived and that i would not be taking any further part in the wedding. this was not the fact i was told that he had told them i would be transfereing them to the reception as well . this is what happened. and even though i tried to keep a low profile i was spotted by a few family members ,which caused some upset. this was the last thing any of us wanted.
    also i can confirm that mr boyd was indeeed to be a guest at the wedding, and that as myself ,liz and helen were busy setting up the reception room i witnessed him find were he was to be seated and had a member of the hotels staff removed his place setting. upon later speaking with my ex wife she had to get me to confirm mr boyd even attended at the reception. appartently he sneaked in and sneaked out without anyone of the family knowing he’d even been there.
    p.s. mr boyd also had another wedding on the same day.

  • Ontohim, 2 January 2013:

    Can I clarify on here that I never officially worked for Remarkable- I thought i was helping out a friend, if i was working for someone I would have expected to be at least paid- this never happened.
    As for being a friend- that i am certainly not! And can honestly say I wish I never met him.
    He is a deceiver and a liar.

  • timeformoretruths, 6 January 2013:

    reason for death on death certificate will not state ‘because of mark boyd’ but we know fine well the stress and harrassment and pressure that MB put her through on christmas eve, the fact a woman states she was living in fear of him says it all, she previously had to repeat herself to him that she did not keep money at home and how she wasnt lending him money a 3rd time as he hadnt repaid the 2 other amounts…..all this was a very big contributing factor to her death and she should be here today with us! I watched the effects of making someone ill that the stress/pressure/harrassment had on my own father at the time that MB put him through. Im very thankful that my father is alive today but again im having to watch the anger and upset and undue stress that MB is still continuing to dish out to us all and those still tangled up in his web of lies deceit threats! Myself and family take small comfort that there are others in simliar boat as we are were it concerns MB but least we arent sitting back in silence now and are speaking out and sharing our private business in order that it will help some justice in the correct departments take MB to the side and deal with him accordingly! For everyone that does sit in silence they are just playing into the bullying hands of MB as are eaxactly were he wants them…out of the public eye. But each to their own and some folk wont write a review but are happy to share their story with likes of me and a few others on this group so we have to accept that. How many more shall come forward this week….watch and see because we all certainly arent going away!!

  • eveningstar, 6 January 2013:

    Can I just say, that I am truly very sorry for your loss. Although MB may not be responsible for your relative dying, I would think that it would a be a huge contributing factor in it.

    If there is one thing that MB wants to continue is people remaining silent, through shame or confusion about him taking their money. He doesn’t want people to know. It’s real pity that I removed a lot of my earlier posts. It might have dissuaded people. I was attacked by other posters (probably his ever shrinking fan club) and told I was victimising MB. That I was only trying to take trade away from him thinking that I was rival florist. Nothing to be further from the truth. I’m a teacher and I don’t even live in Northern Ireland any more!

    I really don’t want anyone else to become his next target so either spread the word through the local community, use facebook or continue to use this forum.

  • timeformoretruths, 23 January 2013:

    thanks everyone who has commented or private emailed me since i have joined this site and shared my true experience of Mark Boyd and seeing and learning the other side of him that i never would have thought was him or like him but sadly its true..he does seems to have a spilt personality going on here and defo needs to be medically accessed in my humble opinion for what it is worth. I also am still shoaked at the many people who still defend his error ways and seem to have excuse after excuse for him…they obviously havent met mr.nasty mark boyd then and well it wasnt until october 2012 that me and my family have after knowing him for over 33 years!! I so look forward to the days ahead and no doubt many more like me might come forward either on here or via facebook. rollorcoaster of emotions has begun since october 2012 and so hard trying to accept and come to terms with everything and grieving too for the loss of our loved one and the fresh memories of how MB had her so harrassed on xmas eve/xmas week. I can never ever forgive him nor can i forget but i can hold my head up high for speaking the truth and shame the devil…cause he truely is no christian man in my eyes no more and the devil n hell is the next best place for the likes of him!!

  • CJGeordie, 7 February 2013:

    Words fail me! Having read some of these stories ours doesn’t really come close to the heartbreak suffered by others but he still took our money and treated us very shabbily.

  • theexdriver, 8 February 2013:

    hi cjgeordie , another dissatisfied customer!!!! please share your story . no story is to trivial , its the only way the word is getting out there. please leave your reveiw and let everyone one know just how shabbily you were treated. mb has no scrupples about treating people like something he stepped in.

  • timeformoretruths, 19 February 2013:

    well folks…mr mark boyd has reached an all time low, just when we think we have heard it all and are shaking our heads at disgust at his actions this one really does have to be up there with my own personal review of him. he had borrowed a large lump sum of money from a friend for which he knew fine well were and what this money was to be used for in days ahead.any decent sole would not have asked this good natured person for the money in first place under the circumstances!! so he got the money and promised to repay it and never has even as i type this comment he has made broken promises again and again and still he hasnt repaid. the stephen nolan show exposure is all up in the air at present and wasnt aired in the last series there-many times they promised and renagged on their words! not good publicity for them as many people were anxiously waiting to see their feature. i had spent many many hours helping the show get their story but MB has put the pressure on them, has turned on the tears and made idle threats which he hasnt the balls to carry out and they are weary of his actions and so the feature is shelved:( trust me, i have had words with the producers and journalists involved with the story and many high emotions and anger is floating around at present. If they do run it in the next series after easter time it may be too little too late espically as MB is still at large and preying on people and their money. So many people DO NOT know about him nor are they aware of qype and facebook reviews and people are still being targetted by him!! He still continues to spin off his lies to everyone who has spoken to him lately and that includes apparently his own sister and his brother inlaw, from what i was told by another source, who approached him about his money situtation!

    I have personally now am considering my own next move forward and questioning myself about all i have done so far and the results achieved but yet no result. I know where i stand with some people and where i dont stand with others as people do not wish to public be known that he has conned them which then makes ot harder to get the finally result of exposing him 100% and having everyone back me up.
    If i do go forward i shall keep everyone updated but if yous dont hear from me then do take from it i have stepped back from it all and walking away. Im still grieving remember and dealing with all other emotions that MB has brought into my life since October 2012 so no it hasnt been an easy time and made very hard by him and his nasty texts of threats to me. I know others are suffering too and we each have our own way of dealing with things and our actions and words….i take small comfort that im not alone in this nasty situation he has put us all in.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 18 January 2013
DISQUALIFIED MOTORIST FAILS TO PAY FOR FUEL.....as per Newtownards Chronicle Newspaper, Thursday 17th January Edition

A Dundonald man was found to be driving while disqalified after he failed to pay for fuel at a petrol station.
42 year old Mark Boyd, from Cairnsmore Walk, was charged with driving without insurance and driving while disqalified on December 13 2012.
Ard magistrate court heard last thursday that police were called to a service station where it was reported that a driver had failed to pay for fuel.  They spoke to the driver, Boyd, and discovered that he was driving despite having been previously disqualified.  He admitted the offences.
District Judge Mark Hamill gave him 12 months probation and disqualified him from driving for 12months for the charge of driving without insurance, He was given the same verdict which would run concurrently for driving while disqualified.
.................................................................................................................................................
At last he finally gets named and shamed in one newspaper and one which is read and is popular newspaper for the residents of Ballybeen and Dundonald. 
This is just the start of his motoring offences as he has a history of 3 motoring incidents and of which are not yet settled, in or out of court.
I hope that his friends of the church read this, i hope that his friends who contiune to stick by the scumbag read this  and i'm sure they will make up their own wee theories and excusues for him and believe that they and he are right and we are all the wrong ones!!
This is being copied and pasted to various sites across facebook too.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 17 January 2013
Bit of background: I had my flowers booked with Mark and, after having several appointments cancelled and having read these reviews, I cancelled him and went elsewhere.
I was one of the lucky ones who got their money back (with great difficulty but still....). I would go into more detail but I'd simply be repeating what everyone else is saying- same stories, same difficulties getting money.

He sent me texts while I was on honeymoon accusing me of posting on this site (ironically the post I was accused of making was the one by Dolly111 which was written on my wedding day! I was a tad too busy...) and telling me it was people like me who ruin small honest businessmen like him. I didn't (and won't) post my story on here in case there were more texts.

Only came on here to say that I spotted on Facebook that Stephen Nolan's show on BBC1 on 23 January will be exposing Remarkable Flowers- apparently interviews were done yesterday. I will definitely be tuning in for that one!

  • eveningstar, 17 January 2013:

    Me too. I cannot wait to hear the Nolan Show expose this little twerp for what he is. I am so glad (that however small) that I was a part of pushing for this interview to take place.

    Just in case you are unsure… Mark…. you are a loathsome piece of crud that would give the dirtiest piece of slime a bad name. SO at last all the birds have come to roost. All the disgruntled brides all getting their revenge. And this is not even touching on the dozens (or more) of people you have conned out of money. The OAPs worried about making their next mortgage payment, to my friend you have left without a home to people who’s Christmas you’ve ruined as they are struggling to make their next loan payment…. You get what you deserve!

    If there’s one thing you will learn, it’s what goes around comes around… good luck you’re going to need it.

    So please keep posting. If all he can do is send pathetic text messages… then let him jog on.

    And ACS131 if you haven’t already please get in contact with the Nolan show as it’s important you tell your story. No story is too trivial or unimportant. That’s what MB wants people to remain silent. If you choose silence then it only gives him the green light to get more of God’s money (as he calls it) out of the next vulnerable person.

    So as I said before I wouldn’t piss on him if he was on fire.

  • eveningstar, 17 January 2013:

    I have just finished laughing so much my sides hurt. “ruin a small honest businessman”. I really don’t think that MB understands the concept of honesty.

    Mark, Wikipedia defines honesty as “Honesty refers to a facet of moral character and connotes positive and virtuous attributes such as integrity, truthfulness and straightforwardness along with the absence of lying, cheating or theft. Honesty is revered in many cultures and religions.” DO you recognise yourself as this? LOL don’t think so!

  • timeformoretruths, 18 January 2013:

    hi there…can you get in touch with me asap please i would really wish to speak/email with you. i have already left you a private message.

    Everyone…and i know by posting on here that MB and band of followers are also watching this site but right now i dont give a shite who reads any of my true words…….because till the day im dead will be the only time i will be silenced about Mark Boyd!!!

    Watch this space re the Nolan show and 23rd as it may not happen unless brides come forward and get in touch! 2 have backed out, a 3rd didnt even bother to turn up and filming crew were waiting for her!! So im urging everyone who reads this and knows of someone who will give up 5mins of their time to help me and everyone else invloved in bring this onto the Nolan show to come forward…..

    and for the record it was NOT me nor my ex husband who went to the Nolan show in the first place to report Mark Boyd and it was NOT me who sent a letter to mark Boyd and a copy to his mother-as im being blamed for!!!!
    Helen, Mark Boyd exgirlfriend, was the person who got in touch with Nolan show. And as she wrote to me in message she dont care who knows it was her either so im certainly not naming someone outa turn here!!
    As for who ever it was that sent the letters…GOD and the person responsible for doing the letters knows that answer but shame on for passing the blame onto ME!

    As for receiving threats from Mark Boyd via texts etc…i advise anyone to save them to their sim and phone and make a copy…..PSNI or other departments /people would be only too pleased to see the harrassment and undue stress that MB is afflicting upon people who are speaking out the truth about him!!

    Many people cant sleep or rest easy, are very worried about their future and left to pick up the pieces and sort out their finances all because of Mark Boyd….and what he’s doing…he’s still continuing on do as he does to suit himself and to hell with the rest of us!!!

  • eveningstar, 18 January 2013:

    Will any brides out there please realise that you playing straight into MB"s hands here as this is exactly what he wants.

    SILENCE

    If enough brides (and grooms!!!) come forward, give only 5 mins of their time, then your help can do 2 things….

    1) Prevent a travesty of a wedding happening to another couple

    2) And very importantly curtail his notion that he can extort money out of elderly vulnerable people and claim it is “God’s money”!

    I realise that there is probably something mentally wrong with MB. His behaviour is not normal. I guess that there is sometimes even honour among thieves but there no sort of mercy with him.

    He cloaks his deeds as God’s work. However, even people like him MUST be stopped.

    So, doing NOTHING is not an option.

  • Ontohim, 19 January 2013:

    I know its not easy going and speaking face to face with some one about the way that Mark affected what should be the best day of your life, or how he has ruined friendship, or how he has hurt you emotionally promising something and making you feel that he is something that he is so clearly not – but if a few minutes of your time could stop this from happening to someone else then is it worth it?
    I hope this is the wake up call that MB needs. He has been confronted, and helped out on many occasions over the years, but the pull to borow money from people and leave them in HUGE DEBT!!!!! seems too great for him.
    I have no problem with people knowing that it was I who contacted the Nolan show- people have told me that I shouldn’t have, as this will effect my chance of getting any of the many thousands that MB decieved me out of. However, seriously how would he have returned the money back to me or any other person- in an honest way??? Maybe he’s growing a money tree out the back of his mansion- oh sorry he still lives with his mother. (another lie he told me)
    If someone had done something like this when it happened to them years ago – maybe word would have gotten around and I wouldn’t have had my heart broken or be in huge financial diffs.

  • eveningstar, 19 January 2013:

    LOL He told me he was a brain surgeon…. yet he couldn’t use a computer…. he told me he wrote songs…. but yet didn’t play an instrument…..

    Mark Boyd is so used to telling lies that he cannot tell the difference from the truth and a lie.

    I really hope the Nolan show goes ahead. It’s time he was stopped.

  • knewit40, 23 January 2013:

    can anyone tell me if the Nolan show exposing Mark Boyd is definately going ahead on Jan 23rd??

  • Used2bhisfriendfromchildhood, 23 January 2013:

    hi…nope not being showed on the 23rd. another date is set for it but :)

  • knewit40, 23 January 2013:

    hi used2bhisfriendfromchildhood thanx 4 letting me know about nolan show what a pity i was sooo looking 4ward 2 seeing this creep getting his comeuppance at last!!! i’m sure we know each other as i also grew up a few doors away from him & went to same church. he fleeced me in a place a used to work & when i trid to contact him sent me threatening letters etc, i hope all the “christians” in dundonald will finally wake up & smell the coffee about this conman who not only lies about his “business” life but also his personal life. i worked with a guy who knew him from around town & the things he told me about him were shocking. he really is a two faced liar & needs professional help! glad the truth about him is finally" coming out"

  • eveningstar, 27 January 2013:

    I think there’s a lot more to Mr MB than first meets the eye. I have heard a little more, however, it’s something that I cannot talk about on open forum, suffice to say, he’s sunk even lower than I ever thought possible.

    So MB if you are reading this, I hope you get all that’s coming your way, karma has a strange way of balancing things out…..

  • knewit40, 27 January 2013:

    hi eveningstar, i think i know wot u are talking about! the things i have heard are shocking but i know for a fact they are true as someone who was involved with him used to work with me & told me all about him & his sordid secrets!! believe me he can sink lower than u think!!!!

  • eveningstar, 27 January 2013:

    I think we’re on the same wavelength…

  • knewit40, 27 January 2013:

    defo!!!

    Hiya…YES the show is deinately airing the story this Wednesday evening :) I can confirm this as I’m on the production show list and will be there!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to see the report and just hope people who do watch will sit up, listen, learn and take fecking heed that Mark Boyd isn’t the so called good christian man and sun shines outta his ass and he can no wrong as SO many people still believe!!!!!!!! He’s scumbag that walks this earth and rotten to the core and still waffling his lies out-i think this guy is way beyond knowing what or how to speak the truth any more! I’m glad to hear that one bride2be was repaid her deposit on sunday but he still put the poor girl thro the hassles of his lies and cancelling appointments prior to finally meeting yesterday.

In recent days it was brought to my attention about this so called Florists Remarkable Flowers,I can safely say this man Mark Boyd is nothing but a lying,cheating, money- grabbing,two faced fraudster,He may have a few good weddings but they are far out weighed by those he has let down and ruined the wedding days of  many,please stay well clear of him as he will stoop to the lowest levels to get money out of people,I grew up with him and always believed him to be honest,that all changed after he conned a friend of mine out of a few thousand,He cannot be trusted please read the reviews and take heed this man is the lowest of the low and doesn't deserve to be allowed to do business ,how many more peoples lives will he ruin before he is stopped???

    thank you Juile for coming on qype and speaking out and for commenting also on facebook. All those years we grew up along side him and never once woulda believed he was capable of all that he has done and no doubt there is more that we are never likely to hear about but yet he has bitten off the hand of friendship too as he has burnt a few of us along the way as we are now hearing/sharing our stories. the answer to your closing question remains unanswered at present but KARMA does live in this world we live in and im sure that its within arms reach of grabbing Mark Boyd, all a matter of time!

  • scently, 10 January 2013:

    Totally surprised at the nasty remarks on this site. All true where money is concerned, but having seen MB doing a floral demonstration in a hall with an audience, i would say he is a very talented guy. His arrangements are second to none. His style is amazing and table arrangements are original. The person who commented about him buying vases in Ikea get real. most florist buys their vases in Ikea,some times the vases are cheaper than wholesale. and using net in a vase is very original too. whether its 90p or 9 p florists have or should be making money not doing it for free. Are you saying that flowers in tescos Sansburys and asda are not good. id think the management of those stores would be grossy annoyed if they knew those remarks were made about their merchandise. I sympathise with the lady who’s relative died at Christmas and thats sad, but blaming everything on MB isnt really the thing to do. MB is just a very bad business man who hasn’t grasped the concept of retail costing and profit. and some body has to pay.and its people who have been conned into parting with money.

  • misslead, 11 January 2013:

    Really!!! net in a vase is original with 2 flower heads floating on top,i was so lucky to get this special treatment,not so lucky to have paid a fortune for it tho!the whole point of paying a florist to do your flowers is so they can create a really special service that will wow people,that certainly was not the case at my wedding i could have done a better job myself without the expense.As for Mark,no one is really disputing his ability,its just a shame he didn’t use the best of it at all his weddings he would have had great business and a lot of happy brides,and i think you’ll find he was making rather a lot of profit which certainly was not going back into his business or he would not be in this mess!!!! I’m a little insulted at some of your comments as they seem to make some of us brides complaints as trivial.

  • PosterPaint, 11 January 2013:

    I agree with Scently to an extent when they write he ’hasn’t grasped the concept of retail costing and profit’ but to say that he just lacks business sense is completely wrong. Not only does he lack business sense but he is a compulsive liar. Like a few others on this site, I too have his messages saved as evidence should I need it. He has lied over and over again…

    1. Our money is in the post…no wait it was an oversight on his part and he didn’t actually send it.

    2. (after further communication) Your money will be sent by bankers draft…except that never arrived.

    3. (after even more communication) I will have it sorted asap as soon as I am out of hospital…6 weeks later and I’m still waiting.

    4. I will return your money in instalments…4 weeks later…no payment plan…NO MONEY!!

    So 14 weeks from me supposedly receiving my money after many promises from this man I am still owed the full amount. I do not believe that this can simply be down to poor business management. In my job, if I fell behind on promises and the things I said I would do I would be reprimanded…this is simply unacceptable behaviour.

  • scently, 14 January 2013:

    I just want to apologise if I gave the impression i was insulting any one on here and suggesting that their comments were trivial. But I do take into consideration that a lot of untruthful things were said by MB he had that ability to charm and make believe that what he was saying was the truth. I feel for his family especially his mother who has to live with this through no fault of her own.

  • eveningstar, 15 January 2013:

    Scently, the issue with this little bastard MB is not is floristry skills or lack thereof, but how he has systematically targeted vulnerable people and relieved them of their hard earned money. If it was my relative that MB had putting on pressure like that, I am afraid it wouldn’t be sufficient to post on a website about his actions, I am afraid I would be taking it a little further than that. How would you feel it is was a parent or grandparent of yours?

    He’s a disgusting & loathsome. However, I have feeling that things are about to take a turn for the worse for Mr Unremarkable….. very soon….

  • eveningstar, 15 January 2013:

    BTW there is nothing on here that’s untruthful about MB. I am sorry to say all the bad things are true.

  • scently, 16 January 2013:

    Hi Eveningstar you are right about him. He has lied and cheated his way for 20yrs. and lived on other people’s money, even said he was a doctor at one stage. and if you unblock me from another site I could tell you more.

  • theexdriver, 21 January 2013:

    dear scently i worked with mb for over six months , believe me there is a very big difference between flowers from wholesalers and tesco’s . i seen both day in day out. brides aint payin for tescos, if they were they may as well go there and do it themselves. brides who said they got a bit of net in vase arent complaining about the design , thats not what they ordered in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!! reason they got that mb had no money to pay for their wedding and used cheapest he cud get his hands on or they wuda got nothing. people pay a flowerist to pride flowers on their wedding day to their specifications and budget not what mb decides they will get dictated by what he has in his wallet. and i dare say not having their churches decorated by a taxi driver with no experiance what so ever in flower arranging!! yes i was asked to dress churches and reception rooms as well on my own. one poor bride got a tesco’s finest bouquet repackaged by me one time(appologies to bride involved i did my best) ask the brides is this what they are paying their hard earned cash for??

    news flash folks it has recently come to my attention mb used his driver was lost as his excuse for late arrival of flowers. i was that driver this summer !!! guess what folks i have worked as a taxi driver for 15 years, and this is the inportant bit I NEVER ONCE GOT LOST!!!!!!! ALL FLOWERS HANDED TO ME WHERE TAKEN DIRECTLY FROM MB’S SHOP TO YOUR HOUSE, AND I NEVER GOT STUCK IN TRAFIC OR HAD A BREAK DOWN WITH MY CAR. (in case he has told anyone this also, covering my bases LOL) reason for late delivery was simply i was hanging around in his shop waiting for him to finish making them up.

  • eveningstar, 21 January 2013:

    I think that any bride would want the very best on their wedding day, so to promise this and then to deliver the complete and utter crap that mb delivered is certainly be a big disappointment.

    There is no defending MB. He’s a crossed so many lines and I really really hope he gets what he deserves. A prison sentence or worse…

  • scently, 23 January 2013:

    Eveningstar I am not defending him. I did that for so long and he let me down on ever occassion. he told me that I was the only person he owed money too. he drove my jeep and wrecked it causing £8,000 worth of damage I had to replace the engine. So believe me i feel I dont have to defend him. The thing is I saw weddngs he did and they were spectacular. But over the past year he seems to have gone bad. I am shocked at the way he is behaving. Perhaps i was blind and as he was praying with people he was deceiving them and others. I feel sorry for the people who have been let down, lied too and deceived out of money. Its shocking. I do think there is somthing mentally wrong with a person who acts like this. Perhaps the Nolan show will bring it all out as there are others who have been deceived who dont or havnt used a computer who are in isolation and havnt heard what is going on.

  • eveningstar, 23 January 2013:

    Well scently, just when I thought that I heard it all……

    I am really sorry, but you know my opinion of mr MB, I wouldn’t have lent him a child’s plastic tow truck! How many times does someone need slapped in the face? Before it becomes painful??

    I would also say that when I knew him he was already bad and since then I would reckon he’s not veered too far from that particular course.

    If he needs help, then for heaven’s sake why hasn’t he sought it, does he need to drag everyone else down with him. An alcoholic’s first step to recovery is to admit his alcoholism. Perhaps MB should admit all the wrong he’s done. And I don’t want the laying of hands or prayer. Thant’s not going to help. Professional help just might.

  • Ontohim, 23 January 2013:

    Scently sorry to hear you were also affected by MB also. Thank you for sharing your story. Its beyond me how anyone can live like this. Everything seems to be being brought out in the open a piece at a time.

    Eveningstar I agree he does need some serious help-will he be willing to? I’ve heard he may have mental health problems- however there should be no excuses, he needs to face the truth and the facts. Man up and deal with the consequences no matter how difficult they are. He has made other’s lives very difficult because they thougth they were doing him a favour. Eveningstar I understand what you mean by you don’t want prayer, he’s hurt so many and that might seem like the easy option but I think that is one aspect he does need along with all the rest.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 4 January 2013
Devastated by this man and his lack of integrity!!! I have cancelled my flowers! Mark was very kind when I went to cancel, he said he knew why I was there and not to worry he understood. He promised the money would be paid back in full on several occassions. Each time a new excuse followed explaining why the money had not yet reached my hand. He then explained he had been in hospital for a few days. I do know he was in hospital but this would not explain the lack of refund. I had been to his shop 7 weeks before this and the money had been promised the next week. That would have given him 6 weeks between my refund and him falling ill. 4 months later and still no money. We receive the odd text message which his way of biding time. From reading other posts I'm not sure there is anything else to be done. I am honestly devastated by the distress he has caused me and my family during what should be the happiest time. 

Friends of mine hired Mark's services for their wedding this year. The bride knowing I had also booked him never told me how unhappy she was with her flowers until I told her we had cancelled our booking. She said she didn't want to cause me stress but explained about how awful Mark was at keeping appointments and that flowers that had been promised simply did not show up at the reception.

I am relieved not to be doing business with him and I am happy I found out about him with enough time to find a different florist. May the new search begin!

    If I read this right you managed to cancel before your wedding? If so, then I wish all the best for your wedding and hopefully, the florist that you will pick will deliver a spectacular display. Thanks for posting as well, as the more that word gets out about Mr. Unremarkable the less chance of this happening to anyone else.

  • theexdriver, 4 January 2013:

    welcome posterpaint, congrats on having the very good sense to cancel and not to play russian roulette on your wedding day. you have made a very wise desision, alltought you will probably never see a penny back from mr boyd unfortunatly. if you can i would suggest that you save yourself the bother and hassle of chasing him and go directly to trading standards and the small claims court. all the best for your wedding and i’m sure you will now get all that you expect from your new flowerist, i’m sure you have noticed that a reputable flowerist is a bit more expensive , and having read the posts on here you now know why. they deliver what you order on time and all correct. and they pay their suppliers and staff in full on time, and they dont supply cheap crap from tesco’s , asda, marksies, ikea, lidl etc etc.

  • timeformoretruths, 6 January 2013:

    hello posterpaint to this group…there are plenty of good reputable flowerist out there and good luck in choosing one. Well done for sharing your story and you should ask your friend to also write a review of her experience as every bit helps and shows Mark Boyd and his wee band of merry followers just how dissatifised people are of his work, his business manner dealing with people, his continued lies lies lies and amazingly how many people are coming forward and speaking out about him!!!!!

  • knewit40, 23 January 2013:

    hi posterpaint just wondering if you’ve found a new florist yet? im new to this site & have only read ur post if you haven’t booked one yet i would def recommend penelope flowers un kings square. the did my wedding flowers which were stunning & me & my family have used them for everything since including my lovely dad’s funeral! my mother in law sent me a gorgeous bouquet from them for my 40th a few weeks back & ive only just had to throw them out as they lasted sooo long! hope u get sorted & well done for cancelling with mark unremarkable boyd u had a lucky escape!

  • ACS131, 24 January 2013:

    I would keep trying for your money. It took me about 2 months to get all my money back but I just hounded and hounded him, calling him from friends phones when he wouldn’t answer my calls. I even went up to his shop when “his taxi driver couldn’t make it into town” on a number of occasions (shame on you theexdriver lol, i’m sure you weren’t even told!) and got lucky as I walked in straight after a potential client so I assume he didn’t want a scene.
    Posterpaint, pm me if you want the details of a great florist- he not only saved the day and made a point of taking my wedding over another on the same day who tried to book while I was still thinking about cancelling Mark but he made the wedding spectacular! My friends are still talking about what a great job he did 6 months later

  • theexdriver, 24 January 2013:

    hi acs131. wat u on about his driver cudnt make it into town lol. u guessed rite first i’ve heard about it !!!!!!!! do u think it might have been a fib???? lol. reading between the lines on here it cud well be mr boyd told u a lie .

  • eveningstar, 24 January 2013:

    MB telling a lie….. no! It’s impossible. He’s a Christian boy!

  • molokoxx, 25 January 2013:

    i had mark booked for my wedding flowers but i was lucky to get my money back from him. i would highly recommend mrs bouquet when i went to see her after all the stress of having mark booked and having to cancel 6 weeks before my wedding she was so nice my flowers were breath taking and she actually turned up unlike mark. ASK ANYONE IN THE WEDDING INDUSTRY ABOUT HIM THEY ALL KNOW.

    the ex driver were you the 1 who brought my refund upto me i live off holywood road?

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 3 January 2013
I seem to be one of the ever growing list of unhappy customers of Mark.I was married in 2008 Mark was recommended to me by a work friend,while her daughter had been happy with his service she did tell me he once phoned her work place to hassle her to pay her remaining balance. This didn't put me off to much as i figured as long as i paid on time it would be no big drama.When i first walked into Marks shop i realized i knew him as we lived in the same area,this seemed to make my mind up" better the devil you know" he told me all i wanted to hear very convincing,i told him what i wanted all white bouquet with lots of bling ,i got white lilies with lots of green foliage and 3 diamonds bridesmaids flowers were tiny,flower girls had their promised heart shaped baskets with NO flowers ,Mark promised my table settings would be "out of this world so modern" what i got was a vase filled with water and 2 or 3 flower heads floating on top, now im no florist but 1 bridal bouquet 3 tiny bridesmaids bouquets 6 button holes and 2 or 3 flower heads on my tables £50 worth maybe i paid close to £400 ,i never got my sample meeting he made his usual excuses so on the day it was way too late to complain,the only slight revenge i got was giving away his vases to my guests not that it was anything to gloat over they were very cheap anyway poundstretchers were selling them.Also he made sure he got his full payment way before my wedding,during this time he also asked my hubby to come and work for him as his driver but for months fobbed him off with every excuse he could make,this was after telling him how much he would earn and how he would let him work around our kids school times etc,as always with Mark everything was too good to be true like all his promises.

  • theexdriver, 3 January 2013:

    yet another disatisfied customer, welcome misslead. join the very long and growing que. vase’s with water and a few flower heads for table centres , this is his usual table centre most weddings i worked on all got the same , though he seems to have short changed you . the rest all got a little bit of coloured wire twisted in theirs as well. your probably lucky if he spent £50 0n what you got.

  • misslead, 4 January 2013:

    you just reminded me theexdriver in some of my vases there was some sort of net material the same colour as my bridesmaids dresses,i guess that would bring the price up by around 90p!! what a big spender,he had convinced me i was one of a kind to get this very MODERN LOOK !!!!!

  • eveningstar, 4 January 2013:

    He obviously was going for the minimalist modern look… I have said this before, a wedding is not something than can be put right after the event. You get one chance and that’s it. It’s so obvious he hasn’t got a clue and his best work isn’t even his own, his best work is done by Liz I believe which he dishonestly passes of as his own and takes the credit for. What a slimy creep!

  • theexdriver, 4 January 2013:

    ahh net material , paragon material shop holywood rd, nearly rite misslead it was £1.20 a metre . i bet mr boyd is glad he hired someone like me with an excellent memory. vases were probably from ikea, i was a frequent visitor there too.

  • Ontohim, 4 January 2013:

    Were the flowers hydrangeas??? More than likely taken from someone’s garden

  • theexdriver, 4 January 2013:

    usually he used some sorta orchids £7.50 outa peakes and coloured wire £3.95 a roll. still not bad free vases/martini glasses from suppliers though they were unaware they wudnt be paid at the time and free water from the hotel . and £11.45 for wire and flowers hey presto 10 table centres.

  • misslead, 6 January 2013:

    the flowers in my center pieces were gerbera daisys,quite a few of my guests commented that they had them in their own garden,which annoyed me a little as i thought they were suggesting i did my own flowers which now i wish i had!!

  • timeformoretruths, 6 January 2013:

    thank you misslead for sharing your story on here. its amazing how facebook brings folk together eh ;)
    im glad we had our recent chat. MB switched from his usual vase supplier to ikea after he saw my vases which i bought and had him use for my wedding in 2008, just before yours. Reason being they were cheaper! Theexdriver has truely spilled the beans (being my ex husband does not mean that i knew all of this information beforehand either/as this was purely business relationship that he and MB had going even tho they met via me) on the ins out of how MB has been operating and putting together weddings. his comments regarding the actual prices of flowers/materiels throws a whole new light onto this all and how we now know that MB stole flowers/foilage etc from various gardens/premises and to think how clients are paying up to £400 a time for wedding day flowers…Its awful that suplliers are not being paid. I was always lead to belive that all items on display at his shop and weddings were infact his…just goes to show you how he loved to show off and bring you into a false pretence of his wee world….well it looks like 2013 is gonna bring the truth out and will be interesting to see what lies he makes up to try worm his way out of it all. I do note that a few of his followers on this site have recently shut their gobs and no further comments to back him up have been made on this group…im wondering have they had a change of heart in recent weeks or has he tried to tap them for money or maybe they cheerish their life and are avoiding him like the plague instead of being in an early grave like my family member because of him!!!!!!

  • theexdriver, 7 January 2013:

    more threats of solicitors on saturday to me from mb lol. followed by silent phone calls. wanting my contact details for his solicitor. you know where i work worm come and ask me i dare you!!!!!! and for ur info mb if ur looking a little pay day, i have no cash no savings and no assets. in the very unlikly event u where to get to court. i will be happy to tell a judge/jury/ reporters exactly how u treated me and others, and what i seen and heard.

  • eveningstar, 7 January 2013:

    Perhaps we should have a little whip around for him, get him a few coppers to tide him over lol.

    Mr. Unremarkable can threaten all he likes. He has stepped on far too many people’s toes and the.y’re would be a stream of people to put the judge right

    All that needs to be done now is everyone should shun him. Deter anyone visiting him in his shop. To cut off his oxygen supply so to speak.

    Warn everyone in your community not to lend him money. News like this should travel far and wide.

    Perhaps then he will finally get the message that not everyone’s in love with the lovely Mr. Boyd.

  • timeformoretruths, 10 January 2013:

    glad to see that im not the only person that Mark Boyd has been sending threating text messages too. On 2 seperate occasions now he has sent me them…all nicely saved on my sim and phone as of my proof just how nasty a guy he is!!
    Hope the ‘christian folk’ are reading this!! had my fill of so called christians this week and how not to upset them or speak outa turn or rock their little churchy boat or ashame them in any way by the likes of me speaking out about Mark Boyd!!!! As for his so called friends…hows you still stand side by side with this guy is a total joke!
    He stood in tesco’s last wednesday night and feed a total pack of lies to an unsuspecting employee (who did not know his error ways-she does now) about his health! yet he was stood bold as brass in his house on thursday and was no where in a hospital bed as he was leading folk to believe he would be!! yet again trying to play the sympathy card on his health.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 1 January 2013
I think someone here is out to get this man. I have been reading these posts very closely and suspect that quite a few are being written by the same person(spelling and grammar give it away). Very suspicious also that suddenly staff are posting too. Take this however you wish. I won't be posting again. Just remember there are some very twisted people in this world.

    i believe this is one of many profiles belonging to mark boyd and his friends!!

  • eveningstar, 2 January 2013:

    I agree with you. I may not be in mark’s company any more but I know what he was like and how he screwed over an old friend of mine. Sorry, this does’t wash with me. And I would like to point out my spelling and grammar are near perfect, as I am a teacher! lol

  • eveningstar, 2 January 2013:

    Just remember there are some very twisted people in this world. – yeah very true and Mr Unremarkable is one of them!

  • eveningstar, 2 January 2013:

    Hello Mark, when did you figure how to turn on a computer? Why don’t you sort out your life? Contact the Consumer Credit Counseling Service and sort out your debt. However, I suspect that your narcissistic personality would preclude you from doing that… or in plain English you don’t give a f**k about anyone but yourself. I have just read the post at the top of this page and I frankly am flabbergasted. I really do not understand why the PSNI/Community have not stepped in to stop you.

  • theexdriver, 2 January 2013:

    well spotted folks!!! hello to mr boyd, i will tell everyone as to why i as an ex member of staff am on here. in my oppinion from what i experianced mr boyd is a liein two faced cheating scumbag who left me in the s**t one time too many with owed wages. he tried to insult my intelligence far to many times , as i previously posted i was well warned not to let him owe me money or lend him any. i was asked repeatedly by him for loans of money or if i knew anyone who would be interested in investing in his bussiness. AS IF !!!!!!!!!! i am not the only ex member of staff on here , i have chatted to the others recently as well. the reason we are on here is to try and warn anyone thinking of giving their hard earned cash to this man . if you dont listen then dont say you were’nt warned!!!!!!!! i was and took notice thats why i kept my eyes and ears open and kept records for my own tax records, and also paid for any flowers with my own tesco club card so i have a record of all purchases there as well. as i previously stated at first i thought he was a bussiness man cutting a few corners , that was untill i fainally came on here and learned the true depths to which he will sink. it was then i immediatly decided to quit , and yes mr boyd did try to not pay me the monies he owed me when i left , but luckily for me i keep records and have an excellent memory and yes i had to use blackmail to get paid, but i did get paid and quiet quickly, guess he did’nt want me telling folk what i know. you’ve all been warned folks , if you dont beleive do a little home work, it aint hard , speak to anyone in floweristry, hotels, wedding suppliers ask them about him!!!! then make up your mind if you want to really hand him your hard earned cash.

  • Ontohim, 2 January 2013:

    Oh its great to see that he is popping online
    It amazes me that Mark continues to do this to people. Belfast is such a small place and people talk. Its getting to the point now when i tell my story to people that they know someone else that has had a similar experience. Interesting

  • eveningstar, 3 January 2013:

    Ontohim, you’ve hit the nail squarely on the head, in the absence of the PSNI being seemingly powerless to do anything because any money given this little creepoid ensures that there is no paper trail or that there’s no agreement in place, the best thing to do is to tell everyone, to warn him of what he’s truly like.

    He prays on the vulnerable and the sick. Gains their confidence. He’s kind to them bringing them little gifts etc. Then once he’s wormed his way into their affections then the puts on the waterworks.

    Now he has them as they willingly hand over thousands of their hard earned cash.

    So if you are reading this Mark, I am afraid the game is well and truly up. There are not enough negative superlatives in the dictionary to describe what you are.

    funny how MINDYOUROWN person hasnt made any recent comments to back up mark boyd lol lol lol lol …..

  • eveningstar, 20 February 2013:

    Perhaps he/she has taken their own advice and is minding their own business. I thought it might have been the lovely Mark Boyd himself but I have been reliably informed that he hasn’t a clue how to turn on a computer let alone use one. Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 30 December 2012
I dont really know mark that well my mum knows him slightly better than me but really only in a friendly how r ya sorta way but what i can say is last year we had two very close and sudden deats in our family so of cors we had to go arrange flowers as we walked into remarkable both me and my mum wer greated by mark with a very sincere hug and kiss before he even knew our situation without even realising mark had made two very upset confused and tbh lost ladies smile he then took a few details gave us alot of sympathy and arranged flowers. On the morning of the funeral the flowers wer all delivered and wer stunning this was the case for both funerals and i for one will certainly be using him again !!

    Hello Never_judge. Interesting profile name. Is it some thing you think we should be doing. I am delighted that you had good service from Mr. Remarkable. It’s a pity that this isn’t the norm and there is some consistency in the quality of his work. Perhaps you would like to advise anyone you know who is getting married to use his services? Perhaps not….

  • Never_judge, 31 December 2012:

    Perhaps this is a forum and I’m every bit as entitled to comment as r u :) and yes i would recommend him not really sure internet bullying is the way forward if all whats wrote is true surely he would be closed up and in jail by now!!

  • eveningstar, 31 December 2012:

    Tell that to the OAP female pensioner who he’s borrowed money off. And yes, you are permitted to post, however unhelpful that might be, perhaps you should spend a few minutes reading the two pages of reviews on this site. Clearly you haven’t. Also would you consider lending Mr Remarkable some money?

    The problem with Mr. Remarkable and being as you quaintly put, closed up and put in jail, is he’s a confidence trickster, he get people to lend him sums of money and never pays them back.

    A friend of mine lent him a considerably large amount of money and he has as much chance of flying to the moon as he has of getting any of his money back.

  • Never_judge, 31 December 2012:

    I dont have any money to lend!! More fool the people that do!! And yes i have read and didnt comment under any cuz each to there own!!! People on this r shaing their opinions so y shudnt i it just happens you dont like my opinion but i wont be losing any sleep over that!!

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 26 December 2012
(updated on 29 December 2012 )
To the brides below who got married on the 15th nov and 1nov I decorated both rooms and both have not been paid yet by mark. Also to 15th bride the room decor would of cost £315 alone so for him to sell you flowers and room decor for £300 was too good to be true but I'm the one sitting with no money that has been paid to me. There are a lot of brides this year have had their rooms decorated by my company and I haven't been paid for most of them. I fell for the tears,lies and excuses. Most of the time I stupidly done the wedding feeling sorry for the unsuspecting bride sitting at home getting ready for the most important day and not realising the panic that was going on in the background ie me getting calls the night before or on the morn of a wedding looking a room dressed. I'm owed a substainal amount of money but sure there's all these brides at home who got the full package for very little money because the likes of me is sitting at the bottom of marks pryamid who were never going to be paid.

  • theexdriver, 27 December 2012:

    well said fellforthelies. to one and all on hear i delivered the flowers on both these occasions as well and i was only paid because i blackmailed the toe rag. i worked with fellforthelies often and can confirm what she has told you all is 100% accurate. this is how brides get flowers at a fraction of the price, hard working people trying to provide for their families go unpaid by mr boyd .

  • eveningstar, 28 December 2012:

    I was told he used to practically give flowers away to appear to be “The big man”. Unfortunately, this meant that other decent florists were practically forced out of business.

    I would think that anyone who has access to the internet and read these review that there would be virtually no chance of them buying flowers from him. My brother got engaged just before Christmas and Unremarkable would certainly not be somewhere I’d advise his future bride to be going to.

    Mark, you are a complete scumbag. You are a coward. You do not deserve the loyalty of these people. Do the right thing and stop. However, knowing you as I do you wouldn’t even consider that.

  • Ontohim, 28 December 2012:

    Fellforthelies thank you for coming on here and telling your story. I too fell for the sob story. He told me that the company that paid his tax and vat had gone into recievership and he needed a little short term help. I too helped him on several occasions, running errands, transporting flowers and forking out cash to pay for flowers so that brides actually got flowers because he told me that he had a cheque that was being cashed (cheques were fakes) or money that was being transferred (These were the lies that he told me and we were supposedly going out)
    I would love to know where all his money has gone.
    Word is getting about – how he is going to stay in business is beyond me.
    On a different note I found out last weekend- Mark has been juping people for money, befriending them and getting them to lend money for 20 years.

  • eveningstar, 28 December 2012:

    Hi Ontohim, it’s very interesting he’s being doing this routine for 20 years, as this would be consistent with what the little I know of his dealings with people, such as conning a certain North Down family out a substantial amount of money about 10 or so years ago.

    The person I know of that he conned out of money, I confronted him, and said that I didn’t think that this was the first time that Mark had done this to someone as the whole episode was so nicely executed by him.

    Isn’t cashing fake cheques fraudulent?

    As regards the money, I don’t know, but he must have been loaned tens, if not hundreds of thousands over this time period. The money? Well who knows, my fear would be that he absconds and leaves for another country with this mess in his wake.

  • Ontohim, 28 December 2012:

    Hi Eveningstar, he apparently has the cheques, but they are never taken to the bank. He texted me a picture of the cheque and said it was still clearing and he would get the money to me. Does he even has a bank account.

    Its a long time to be living this sort of stressful life of never having any money and creating this fake life, to borrow enough and to up sticks and leave the country – but that wouldn’t surprise me. He told me that he genuinely doesn’t need anyone or any relationship. Its little wonder he has as many health problems as he has and I would imagine they will only get worse- as you can lie to yourself for so long and then you emotions and subconscious become so acidic and effect your physical life.

  • eveningstar, 28 December 2012:

    I guess all that badness has to manifest itself somehow…

  • Ontohim, 29 December 2012:

    Just heard from 2 sources- one a bride who’s parents still get text messages from MB asking for money on a regular basis. Any brides out there – be careful that you don’t lend him anything.
    Also another friend has just informed me that someone lent MB a significant amount in Oct/Nov time. More than 10k.

  • eveningstar, 29 December 2012:

    Good idea ontohim. Any prospective brides out there should be warned not to have any dealings with him or to lend him any money.

    I am also afraid that the people who have leant him money have very little chance of getting any of their money back. My friend lent him 10s of thousands. He used to borrow more of him then give it back to him as a payment if it wasn’t so pathetic it might be funny….

    He has to be stopped. This situation cannot be allowed to continue. He’s already annoyed the wrong kind of people so he’s on shaky ground as it is….

  • theexdriver, 2 January 2013:

    hi eveningstar, ontohim, i have seen his little stash of cheques, when u corner the rat he will show u one then tell u he has to pay it into his account. this is to get u outa his face/shop so u dont cause a fuss in front of new victims. also in the entire time i worked for him i only once saw him go into a bank. i very much doubt he even has an account, and definatly not at the branch of barcleys in ballyhackamore. if this bank knew how much he uses them as an excuse i’m sure they would sue him for defaming their bussiness. also last summer he used the computer shut down at ulster bank as his excuse to folks for having no money.

Review of Remarkable Flowers from 20 December 2012
If you feel that Mark Boyd or Remarkable Flowers owes you money- even if it is a civil matter can I suggest you speak to your local police.  The more people that do the easier the authorities will be able to connect the dots and hopefully stop him from doing this to other good, honest, hard working people out there. 

I know there must be other people out there that aren't going to be having the Christmas they had expected to this year because what this man has done to you.  Remember you are the victim here (hate using that word- victim, but its true) Dont feel embarrassed or ashamed, Mark has been seemingly doing this to people for years!!!  Can I suggest also that you are brave and you tell all that you know what happened to you, and let the message of this get out.  
What will stop him frim continuing on with what he has been doing - I dont know,but I am willing to try what I can. 
So -
Tell the police
Speak about what happened to you
If he has done something to hurt one of your friends or family support them while they come to grips with it
Talk to the papers/media 
If it was to do with what Mark promised you re-wedding flowers go to the trading standards authority

And believe that he will be stopped and there will be justice.

  • eveningstar, 23 December 2012:

    Just heard the news that my brother has got engaged. I guess I won’t be advising his future bride to go to Remarkable Mark! I don’t think so!!!!! But great news nonetheless.

  • scently, 24 December 2012:

    The police can not do anything about money asked for and given voluntarily. Stealing is a different matter, but the law will protect a person who is defamed with out evidence to back it up. Anyone saying M.B stole money would need evidence or they could find themselves in a court for defamatory statements. So be careful what you write here. People have been prosecuted for saying stuff on social sites.

  • eveningstar, 24 December 2012:

    Actually, when you complete a search of all the comments on this page, the only mention of stealing is from the verified incidence of Mark stealing from his own church.

    So no one has actually mentioned Mark stealing from people. He’s much too subtle for that. He gains people’s confidence, worms his way into their affections, and asks them to “donate/give” him money, no agreements in place and the debt nicely stays in the donor’s name and not his. Hell, the business is listed in someone else’s name! Not even his name!

    So if you wish he has stolen Christmas from a lot of people on here as they are in financial difficulties as they “donated” money to him. Well, at least the Grinch learnt his lesson, but I really doubt that Mark ever will.

  • scently, 24 December 2012:

    I hear what your saying and i am not defending him in any way. But unless you have actual evidence that he stole the money from a church or a factual account of him being caught with it, you could end up in a civil court for defamation. and i see what you say about confidence tricks worming etc as you say. Thats not stealing. Giving or donating isnt stealing either. It might be obtaining money by false pretences, but its not stealing.

  • theexdriver, 28 December 2012:

    hi scently, i hear what ur saying but i doubt anyone on here will ever hear a word from mr boyd or solicitors. the last thing he wants are police and the courts looking into his affairs!!!! or even the tax man!!!! his m.o. is to fob off the reveiws on here as people with grudges against him telling lies!!!anyone reading these bad reveiws shud ask themselves a few questions?? why are so many people so pissed off?? ex workers , supliers, and customers?? we cant all be telling lies. and unlike most there are now 3 ex members of staff on here. we are the best position of all to know exactly how he works . we can vouch 100% for the lies and deciet ,the broken promises and the shoddy services supplied, and yes on the occasions people get all that they have ordered on their big day!!! now people get to know why, not because of mr boyd, but the peolpe behind the scenes working hard to try and give a good service, even though they themselves are unpaid and yes conned into working hard for remarkable flowers aka tesco/asda/marksies.

  • eveningstar, 28 December 2012:

    Exactly, theexdriver the last thing he’d want would someone poking about in his ever so murky affairs. I am very surprised that Mr Tax man hasn’t come a-calling as an investigation can be extremely thorough.

    I would imagine that any future brides would google mr remarkable and find out what he’s really like. Also, constantly posting like this and mentioning Mr Mark Boyd of Remarkable flowers keeps remarkable highly relevant in google’s search engine and its indexes.

    It’s truly awful that the “good people” have to step in at their own expense to make up for Mark. It’s pity that he has no intention of paying these kind people.

    I just wonder how long this can go on for…..

  • theexdriver, 2 January 2013:

    hi eveningstar in fact he has been accused of stealing on 3 occasions on here , twice by ex members of staff. i have posted that he asked me at easter to get him daffodils from the side of the road that had been planted on public property and when i refused/made excusses i later witnessed him remove them in person , also i and another member of staff have posted previous that on many occassions we have both witnessed him taking ivy for wedding decorations from both private and public property ie. church/hotel grounds, without permission of the property owners. this was a regular occourance at virtually every wedding i worked on ivy was never purchased for wedding decorations the entire time i worked there.

  • theexdriver, 4 January 2013:

    dear scently please get your facts straight borrowing money from people and promising to pay it back and then not doing so is illegal. it is called obtaining money by deception!!! and the main reason that the police do not do anything is that it is incedibly hard to prove in court unless there are a large number of victims willing to go to court and thus show a pattern.
