We would like to issue a correction notice and offer easyProperty a full and unreserved apology. In an article published on 18th September 2014 reporting on the launch event for easyProperty we reported incorrectly ” the crowd was told: “We are looking at the arsehole of agents.” we are happy to correct that this was in fact never said by any of the presenters, in what was a very professional presentation launching easyProperty.com and understand the distress caused by this error.We apologise unreservedly for this error and for any distress or reputational damage to The easy Group , easyProperty, its directors ,shareholders and staff.Commenting Rob Ellice, CEO easyProperty, said: “We are very happy that propertyindustryeye has apologised unreservedly and corrected its article which we accept. Our launch event was a fantastic milestone in our business and we wanted to ensure this was not spoilt by inaccurate reporting “Commenting Ros from propertyindustryeye said: “Having reviewed video of the event in full we are happy to issue a formal correction and apology and set the record straight. We pride ourselves on our reporting but in this instance we got it wrong.”
Now having read the original article I don’t remember the phrase as being of significance, but seeing the correction it sounds hilarious. I really wish I could now see the original report, and also understand how it was misheard. It sounds fabulous and far more likely to get EasyProperty great publicity than their stuffed shirt PR launch!
