Like I said I’m fairly fresh to this and not 100% sure what a should and shouldn’t say clearly haha Dont feel like you have to keep replying back and forth, this could go on and on. You said your bit in your email and that should be it. Sometimes trying to help being reasonable just causes you more grief. Why not just call the guys bluff and make no further contact...leave the ball in his court. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because at the moment he is letting the billy get the upper hand and making the OP look bad He needs to put the billy back in his box and make him look unreasonable whilstthe OP looks like the bigger man. Then he can leave the ball in his court. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
have a word with the wife 299 Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) 18 minutes ago, trade vet said: The plot thickens,a third party business was involved in the transaction.This is interesting,is the partners business a Ltd co. interesting yes because ive just seen this on that there google= Payments through an agent or third party It's not unusual for a business taking payment to be acting as an agent for the actual supplier. In this circumstance, Section 75 may not apply and you may not be able to claim against the credit card provider. This is because the card provider may argue that as payment wasn't made directly to the supplier of the goods or service, Section 75 doesn't apply. So where possible, make any credit card payment direct to the company actually supplying the goods or services. 18 minutes ago, trade vet said: Edited September 25, 2018 by have a word with the wife Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EPV 631 Posted September 25, 2018 Indeed. It’s similar to if you use your credit card via PayPal, you don’t get the S75 coverage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rory RSC 596 Posted September 26, 2018 The OP is a kid starting out who has tried but does not have the full foundations in place. I did some daft stuff when starting up, I am sure we all have. In this type of thing the person you are coming up against knows best, irrespective he thinks he knows more than you and is out for what he can get. As already advised, and it is actually really important you do this, pack in the emails and phone calls. Put something in writing recorded delivery and just state something to the effect of 'following previous correspondence and in light of drawing resolution to the matter please provide the vehicle mileage including a picture of the current display to allow you to assist with an amicable offer'. Give 14 days to reply. Long it out a bit, constant emails back and forth don't help anyone. For what its worth I give it 24 hours min to respond to anything significant most of the time rather than reply and come across as annoyed with them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mojo121 229 Posted September 26, 2018 Reading this from sunny Spain and I think you need to take Arfur Dealeys advice and a little of the Spanish attitude. Take a bit of a siesta on him - he is NOT your priority. You have his money. He wants your attention. You should have made him aware of timescales but the next time you get an answer long him out. We had a similar situation a while ago and once they had a week or three to wait they became a lot more reasonable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
