A little story - a laught at my expense - GOKIWI - 28:th-Jun-2016

I got the finance paper work through for Doris a while ago , didn't really pay much attention to it as all I was interested in was the monthly payment being inside my budget - Mistake N01
Doris was up for 10,495 but reduced on a "Managers Special" to 8,495 - Mistake N02

I put down an 850 deposit which would leave 7,645 to pay under finance for 4 years leaving a 1,760 outstanding balance

So on checking the paperwork - Mistake N03

Value of Car -             7,645
plus VAT -                  1,664
plus adjustment -        1250
Admin cost -                 600

Total cost -               11,159
Outstanding balance -  5,255 (after 4 years)

Not bad eh  - You may all laugh now ........#Imafcukingidiotanddeservetobestitchedlikeakipper

I'm not surprised by those figures to be honest. The only thing which has be curious is 'adjustment'. What's that all about?

It doesn't sound like you have factored in interest either

I would be curious on the VAT also as its not a commercial vehicle and the Admin fee did that include you buying them a computer to do the admin? also the adjust as that's utter rubbish.


RE: A little story - a laught at my expense - J1ODYA - 29:th-Jun-2016

Is the adjustment interest?

I have asked for clarification and a breakdown on how the achieved the figures, VAT certainly should not have been charged and as to the "adjustment" I will just have to wait and see, failing that a call to trading standards will be on the cards.

Did you also as them for the laptop you bought with that admin fee?

My admin fee was on £30 for my Cosra then again £30 for the Astra I traded it in for.


RE: A little story - a laught at my expense - bhalay207 - 29:th-Jun-2016

Think my admin fee was £150
