A PORN supplier has been fined ?4,000 by magistrates after supplying a sex video that was NOT explicit enough for the viewer.

A disgruntled woman complained after hard-core scenes pictured on the covers of three videos she bought did not appear in the actual films as they had been censored out.

Surrey County Council said: "The company had not shown any interest in the consumer's complaint, so the purchaser turned to Trading Standards."

Pabo Ltd was fined ?4,000 at Dorking magistrates for false description and ?10,500 for selling porn films by mail order.

They were also ordered to pay ?75 compensation plus ?2,044 costs.

Peter Denard of Trading Standards said: "Consumers are often embarrassed to complain about purchases such as these and companies take advantage of them."

Brilliant news this lady deserves a reward, hope she stumbles on the myth of TVX!

What a shame no-one thought to do the same to Mr Sullivan!

It's about time that this happened.
I remember years ago when I was wet behind the ears, I bit the bullet and sent off for this fantastic sounding porn vid from a full-page ad in the Sport only for me to receive a few weeks later a short video of some dog rithing away in a dingy studio on a sofa, occasionally pretending to masturbate.
Once bitten, twice shy but I should have had the balls to demand my hard-earned wedge back as what I actually wasn't even worth a solitary wank.

So can we nail TVX, Playboy etc for showing tame shite after conning a lot of people with HC last year?

We ought to nail the BBFC for not allowing the same access to hardcore porn as our fellow europeans. At least some of the stuff on TVX has made my bog-roll sticky, they aren't totally failing
