Good News and Bad News

by jaketaylor ^Pro @ Wednesday, 11. Feb, 2009 – 13:00:59

Good News first: Remember that company that shafted us over fixing our Lotus time and time again? Dutton Forshaw in Canterbury?

Well the good news is that they have gone bust and been shut down and everyone has lost their jobs. Also Mercedes-Benz Kent have taken them over and they took over our complaint, recently offering us £300 in compensation for our troubles. Now considering they have taken over the company and could have just said "NO", I think this is a great offer and we have accepted!

Just goes to show it sometimes does pay to complain.

Now the Bad News: The Lotus wouldn't start this morning and she stinks of petrol making her unusable...

More Good News: Lipscomb Lotus in Maidstone will come and pick her up FOR FREE and deliver her back FOR FREE and fix her (probably for a small fortune but we can't have everything!)

so there always is a silver lining somewhere....

Big thanks to Mercedes-Benz Kent and Lipscomb Lotus and tough shit Dutton Forshaw!

  We never really expected anything other than someone getting into hot water but £300 will go towards fixing her a little

I am truly impressed with Mercedes Benz, that was a real lesson in goodwill building.
