The salesman gets a sale then they couldn't give a flying fuck it seems.

Kevin just got his private plate on yesterday because the sales guy 'had forgot all about it and left it in his tray'.

They've fucked up about my last 5 cars from them.

Ibiza had a deposit on it from somebody else, they changed the keeper, never paid for it so it had an extra owner on it :lol:

I don't know if the cunt is at the wind up or not. They declined the short insurance and he's told me it's illegal for him to tax it online with my policy number.

I'm having visions of going in and grabbing the guy by the throat and choking him til he sorts it out, that's a fortnight now :|

Arnold Clark 7 day insurance?

Bampots didn't offer it to me the last time but I think they have to give you it.

Just don't tell them it's already insured elsewhere.

Just seen you've already said that :o

Also, they are bampots with the v5 as well, could very well have been in your name for days.

They should be able to tax it then if the V5 is still under the traders name? They're at it. Go in with a petrol bomb lit and demand answers.

I'm contemplating that Eck but I'm sticking a fair few K down on it and don't fancy spending much more :|

I was thinking why can't they just tax it with their own traders insurance? It isn't my car yet, I've stuck £100 to hold it and that's it.

get the dealership to deal with it why should you tear your hair out because they have left everything till last minute,, what about traders plates until u get ur docs

Tax it, print out the receipt and ask for a refund from the dealership?

What a bellend of an insurance company though :|

Kind of car btw?

The dealership is paying for it.

Tax it online and drive it anyway...

See if anyone else can suggest something because it's starting to do my nut in :mad:

I've bought a car from a Vauxhall dealer, it's just been serviced and MOT'd and is ready for me to pick up tomorrow apart from 1 problem....it isn't taxed yet.

I have been insured on the car since yesterday but the insurers will not, under any circumstance fax or e-mail the policy across. Therefore they cannot go to the Post Office and get the road tax. They've tried to get me on the 5 day insurance and it's been declined due to it being group 19 or 20 (can't remember).

Anyone any suggestions? Already raged at the insurance company which got me nowhere and also asked if i could pick it up from one of their offices...they don't have 1 in Scotland.
