    Default Could this shop get closed down?

    Well didnt know whre to put it really.

    Okay so, some of you probably heard of Blyk simcards,
    All you need is, a invite code, and passport [verifying your 16 or over
    and they send a sim card with 57 free mins or wahever it is. But its FREE

    yes?

    Well theres a shop down in the market place thing [Shop not stall]
    They sell these sim cards at £10 each

    My question is, Could they be closed or fined for selling something which they dont own and is initially free?

    Thanks in advance :]

    Yeah, they are selling things that are free which is illegal. Contact Trading Standards or tell your local bobby.

    Depends, coz the shop could have a deal with blyk giving them x% of their profits off them.

    I really doubt it, due to the fact that its a very small shop owned by russians i think.
