An online agent at the centre of repeated rumours has still not responded to EYE requests for comments on speculation as to its future. Rumours were swirling last night that it has been bought by foreign investors in a pre-pack arrangement.

EYE has repeatedly asked in emails and phone calls about House Network.

We have had no response despite our newly repeated requests yesterday.

However a poster on our site yesterday claimed that staff have been laid off. Further rumours last night suggested that the business is being bought out of pre-pack.
