I have been in business 6 years, and the saying "the customer is always right" is Censored , some customers are simply not worth the hassle, you cannot please everyone, and we have had our fair share of loonies wanting the world for £3.45 and a coffee, we politely say no, which we have found drives them even more loonie. I can here them rambling on now Smile

Just remember as a customer, the retailer or supplier may simply not like your tone/attitude, it's a two way street, not a given right that you can dictate ALL the rules. If you took some fog and put it in a jar, would it be missed.

What absolute nonsense...I never said or indicated that as a customer I was right. My "beef" is about customer service. It is NOT a 2 way street...If you want my business and there are comparable suppliers around then you have to work to get my business. If you don't want it or don't think it;s worth the effort...fine..I'll move on to the other suppliers. I'm not putting a gun to anyone's head to take my business. Rolling Eyes S/C 06 Black

Good luck with that philosophy, what you will get I would have to assume is a company that NEEDs your business as opposed to one that wants it, very rarely a good thing.

We have turned down many a bag full of cash because we knew the customer would be a pain in the ass Smile If you took some fog and put it in a jar, would it be missed.

In fairness Slick17 you come across as an arrogant prick.

I think James from LPR has went above and beyond to try and appease you. Customer service may have been lacking and there is no excuse for poor customer service in today's climate, but there is even less place for your lack of manners and throwing your toys out of the pram.

Basically, you're looking them to price match a service on your 5 or 6 year old sport with the vague possibility that you're looking for a '10 or '11 supercharged sport. Rolling Eyes

I'm sure LPR won't be falling over themselves for a yapping customer like you. I know I wouldn't if I were them. In my business we do our best to look after customers, but there are some you just will never please, and do you know what I've discovered in my relatively short time in business - Censored 's like yourself just aren't worth it, no matter what promises you might be paying lip service to. MY10 HSE 3.0 TDV6 : Santorini Black : Ebony Interior w/Anigre wood : Privacy Glass (total) : Sunroof : Sidesteps : Hybrid TV : Detachable Tow Kit : Spare Wheel Cover : 22" Dished Supersports

Name calling aside.....Just point out for me how James has "gone above and beyond to appease me". As I recall he has called me once...hardly going above and beyond. I think you are getting ahead of yourself.
What lack of manners are you referring too exactly?
How exactly have I thrown my toys out of the pram. I made an observation on the lack of service from a business on a forum.. Rolling Eyes
BTW. I made no promises to anyone about anything...in fact James was not even aware of the possibility of me looking at p/ex my s/c for a newer model until I brought it to his attention ( this despite the fact that it was stated in my initial post..which he clearly did not read very carefully...what was that about going above and beyond! Jeez!!!! S/C 06 Black

I see your point Slick it's poor customer service when you make the effort to contact someone with intent to hand money over to them for a service and someone says theyl ring u back and they dont or your waiting for a response and nothing happens , I'd just take it as a sign and take your money elsewhere to someone who does have the time to help u out


Thank you kensta...

Again, for clarity I did read the list from the original post when I was first alerted to this thread.

Over to David to see if we can beat the numbers.

Dear all,

We have fully investigated the reason that Slick17 regrettably did not receive a call on Friday as expected.

A message was indeed taken by our reception team, which as is standard procedure was then emailed to David our Service Manager. David does exactly as I do and highlights any emails than need attention by using the 'Mark as Unread' option so that it remains Bold in the in-box until it is dealt with. In fairness David does not recall seeing the email in his in-box (although it is there from Friday) therefore we have drawn the conclusion that he may have inadvertently highlighted the email in his in-box which then after a few seconds then shows it as 'read' as opposed to 'unread'.

The conclusion is therefore human error. We have decided to monitor this going forward, and any repartition may result in us moving back to a manual 'message note' system as opposed to emails. Although there are no excuses, David was particularly busy with returning service customers vehicles for the weekend, which may have led to this happening……. But it should not have happened.

Again, and now on behalf of David, can I apologise for the error and thank you for bringing it to our attention. David will be responding to you by email with regards to the initial enquiry.
