RESULT!!

Post by martdy »

Finally took delivery last week after waiting 1 week short of 7 months.
Thrilled with the car but not with the waiting time . So , about a month ago rang VW customer services to complain. I explained that it wasn't just the frustration of having to wait for my new motor but the money my current car had lost. I was selling privately because the dealers part x was a joke. Anyway ,they politely told me very sorry nothing they could do take it up with the dealer. Why said I - not the dealers fault VW can't make cars quick enough. More apology's but nothing could be done.
Not happy with that so put pen to paper and wrote a very long firm letter explaining my plight. It took a month for a reply,actually arrived the day I picked up the car! More apologising but said after I have collected my car to ring up and a goodwill gesture might be forthcoming.I reckon they thought once I had the car I'd forget all about it - No chance!
On Monday I rang the number ,asked for the person on the letter - sorry not available she'll ring you back .Finally spoke to her this morning and I'm getting a voucher for £500 of servicing or accessories!
Better than I'd hoped ,thought I might get a key ring if I was lucky! But this has made my day.I'd still rather have had the car last November but just go's to show a bit of persistance can pay of in the end! :nod:

Well done martdy! Glad you pursued this, would have been too easy just to accept verbal apologies - nice one :yes:

Yeah, good work mate. Just shows you that if you don't ask, you don't get. Had more problems with the my own dealer rather than VW even though my delay should fall around about the 4.5 month mark (Provided the car gets delivered when expected!) Anyway, well done amigo! :yes:
