Got my motor lowered to day he quoted me £150.00 for springs.
So i dropped the motor off 5minutes later he phoned me up & said due the GSI being than standard i would have to fit a whole kit (shox & springs) he £250.00 & i said alright cool do it.
So i went to pick it up bout an hour ago, got to the desk & he said £150.00 i thought that ain t right, but kept my month shut. Is there anyway he can come back & say you owe me £100.00 & can i just not answer my phone & ignore them ? I paid by credit card can he put another £100.00 through without my say so ?

He cant put anything through without your authorisation, just check your bank statement. £150 for 4 springs

He can't charge your card again. He's done the work with no written quotation and charged you £150.00. Can't see how he can come back to you on it...

God knows why he couldn't do just springs, but a full kit will be better... do you know what kit it was cos £250 is still relatively cheap...

I think it takes em a couple of hours but if they charge by the hour & pay their macanics a salary their making a fortune plus i bought the kit off them so they make money their. Not in this case though

he's NOT allowed to charge you card with out your authorisation,
but he has got your credit card details so if he wanted to charge you
he could. depends how dodgy this guy is.
I would keep checking your balance to make sure he has only taken the
£150.00 out.
