Arfur Dealy 823 Posted January 5, 2019 It really bugs me when I get missed calls with no message, sometimes multiple calls in a short period of time... What is wrong with these people, it’s so fecking rude. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mojo121 229 Posted January 5, 2019 It’s the ones that call again and again and again when you’re dealing with their complaint or fixing their car. I always ring them back like “I have 9 missed calls from you?” They always reply like “yeah I was just wondering...” I then say something like “9 times though?”. Just to highlight their neuroticism. I’m not legging it or ignoring you I just don’t have Bluetooth or i’m with someone else or i’m taking a shit. Calm your tits. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve stopped ringing them, if they can’t be assed to leave a message then they aren’t genuinely interested. Anyone with a modicum of education knows it’s rude not to leave a message. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EPV 631 Posted January 5, 2019 Everything on this thread gets on my tits. But the psychopathic calling 6 times on the bounce without leaving a message when the reason for the call is about as urgent as mowing the grass is the winner. "well they didn't answer me instantly, I'll ring several times in the next 30 seconds until they hear me and answer" I actually am outright rude to people who do this and couldn't give a shit if it loses me a sale. It's bordering on harassment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D&M 66 Posted January 5, 2019 off the top of my head.... when browsing the classifieds, people advertising their cars as 'trip-tronic' instead of 'tip-tronic' I don't know why, but that one just really gets my goat. May be more to come.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a bloke email me about 5 days ago, asking if I would take offers as the car is overpriced. I politely declined and explained why the car is priced as it is priced. He emailed again last night, asking what offers I would take, as the car has been online for sale for a while now and no one is interested. How about you fuck off, sunshine? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trade vet 702 Posted January 5, 2019 1 hour ago, Arfur Dealy said: Common TV divulge your billy annoyances.... The vast majority of punters are nice straight forward people.However,the odd one who lies about a warranty claim does get me annoyed.For instance,I remember being well down the M1 and an Astra we had sold went past doing about 100mph.Sometime later the guy calls in ( he was actually wearing a Ferrari Baseball cap) and asking if we could repair his exhaust under warranty.I said yes and asked him a few things like has he been far etc.He said no and always drove carefully etc.You can imagine the rest. Its not the punters,it’s all the other stuff,suppliers short changing you or just being incompetent and the bullshit explanations. I never liked flash traders,they are usually frauds.When you are struggling for a parking spot at the auction then some dickhead with the Range Rover Sport with vanity plates,fake tan and Rolex ( all the optional extras) arrives. The security gate just opens and they are allowed in because they are a big time operator,when you know they haven’t got a pot to piss in. That’s all for now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark101 536 Posted January 6, 2019 Phone calls after what I consider normal hours but no message (I only return calls with messages left) Also What will you take for the car Where did you get it from How long have you had it Can you tell me a bit about the car - what? More than the advert on AT and my website, both with videos Can I view on Saturday - yes but only by appointment. I have others to see so can’t commit to a time - goodbye Has the cambelt been done (on a chain) Relying on third party services to back my exceptional customer service Feast or Famine income People parking in my neighbouring units space when I have parking outside People turning up with their friends, family and pub expert to crab a sub £5k car But mainly, the cold weather 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
