As you all probably know we have been on the lookout for anew car and around the 15th December we found one that we thought fitted the bill. After speaking to the salesman via phone on the 18th December we put down a deposit to hold the car until we could get down to the garage as it was 9 hours away(although due to travelling south for xmas to see relatives the garage is only 30 mins from them )
We put the deposit down with the condition that it was fully refundable if the car wasn’t as described which the salesman agreed to.
Fast forward to the 21st December we go to view the car and are passed onto another salesman as the original wasn’t in on the day.
The car clearly wasn’t as described as it was dented and marked and had scuffed alloys etc. The salesman who showed us around the car acted quite embarrassed by the condition of it and commented that the car we were px ing was in better condition.
Therefore he promised us a refund would be done the next day.
Fast forward tot today and after many promises of it being done and promised calls back it hasn’t happened.
Luckily we paid by credit car and having spoken to them today they are sending paperwork out for us to fill in so we can get a “chargeback” The credit card chap said in the meantime try contacting the garage again and see what they say which I did and the chap I spoke to this time remembered me as was quite shocked (probably acting) that we hadnt had it back !!!
Im absolutely fuming over it.
The garage kept blagging me saying it had been done but then why did the original sales chap email asking for car details on the 5th so he could do it yet still hasnt !! 😐
