Car Saga continues

Apologies, yours truly is in a little bit of a writing frenzy it seems (once again). So sorry for so many Posts and filling up your In-Box! Delete if you don’t wish to hear about my daughters Car Saga.

 

 

Just an update on Daughter # 2’s car.

Still impounded, Mr. S phoned and spoke to the ‘gentlemen’ today, we are lodging a formal complaint with Consumer Affairs now. We are told legally the 2 contracts (the hire car agreement and her car being fixed) are 2 separate issues and she is entitled to have her car back.

Then we are seeking legal advice from a solicitor. He (the not so very nice Manager) sent us the quote for the 5 minute repair (according to the other Panel Beaters she saw) and it amounts to $2,600.00. This company are scammers which is unfortunate for they are a family business that has been established well over 40 years.  Now we wait for the paper-work to be filled in, for even though he accepts a payment plan, he will NOT release the car till that is paid in full ($1,500). Very handy to have a Panel company who also runs their own Insurance company isn’t it……

Meanwhile yes good old Mum will be driving her into work before I head onto mine..ah the joys! 🙂

 

 

 

I am livid!

I have anger tonight over an issue with my daughters car which was in a panel beaters being fixed and the hire car they gave her, the fact that the repairer is now holding her car to ‘ransom’ as she put a minuscule dint in the hire car. 😦 They are using bullying tactics and demand that the $1500.00 excess be paid prior to her being able to take her car back.

It’s involved and Mr. S tomorrow is seeking legal advise. I spoke to the gentleman arrogant pig at the Repair shop who could only offer “I know how you feel etc but that’s how it is”. No it isn’t sunshine and you haven’t heard the end of this. She (daughter) has said she can pay in instalments as she hasn’t got $1500.00 – they/he won’t accept that and won’t release her car till it is paid in full. The contract that she signed states nothing to this effect btw. I spoke to him…I am livid… this is my writing for tonight.

Cruelty or abuse
not in the form
of a strike by hand
Bullying and power
against the young who know
not how to defend

Advantage taken for greed
circumstance they care not
legality they uphold trying
to bluff the
submissive

Be prepared for my revenge
and what may follow for
you may say ‘you understand’
where I am coming from
but you do not know the extent
to which it shall be taken

Do not sleep well at night
for the dollars you hope to get
as word of mouth travels fast
and your ‘service’ is one that
that shan’t be let off lightly

she has her rights as you claim
to have, but compensation that you
seek will in the end not be your
reward it will be your undoing
you will lose out when
all is said is done
your bullying and stand over tactics
will be ignored

you don’t deserve any more
you are showing your greed
praying on those that that you think
have no voice

you are wrong…so very wrong
