Smudger

Bull Dog were on Watch dog a couple of months back - basically if I remember correctly it was about their lying to customers and crap customer service, and incorrect billing issues. I am with Bull Dog and these are a FEW issues I have had: I have had numerous conversations to take payment from my bank account (instead of my credit card) for my monthly payments I have sent in 4 (yes 4) DDM's in - finally after a year of being with them they are now taking payment from my bank account. I have been trying to upgrade my account for months - was told yes it will be done (you know usual fob you off, blah blah blah) - then everytime I called back was told there was no history of any of my calls - none of them. This month I get a bill for £50 - instead of my usual £30 - I was told that this was an error and only the usual payment bill will be debited - I then receive a letter yesterday saying 'actually you will be charged £50 - there was a big error on the accounts that have just been upgraded, and everyone will be charged that and then credited on the next bill' - hummm lots of intrest for them. Oh a funny one was when the internet was down - was down all day so wasnt sure if it was my computer broken or web down, so I call them and there is a voice recorded message to say 'the web is currently down, please visit our website for more updates' - hello if only I could get on the Dam internet. Dont get me wrong - the general packages are pretty good - but if you need to contact them for anything - god help you and dont wish for a miracle. They are the worst people I have ever dealt with on the phone and also I would advise you to keep an eye on your bills and how much they take out and when - as I have also had problems with that too. I am not saying that everyone will experience this by any means - but its just a few of the experiences I have had with them.

Looks like its trying to be an old aston martin crashed into a fiat 20v coupe thingy --- not good at all!

My engine has done over 150k and it looks like a brand spanker compared to that one ...

:taped: Toyota Opti-fit battery - nothing else you idiots!

STOP buying hellfrauds crappy arsed batteries!!! when will people ever learn ? Buy Halfords - buy twice, or maybe 3 times - hmm or maybe more!!!

Toyota Opti-fit Cold weather battery = £60 and its meant for the soop - cant beat it imo.

Toyota believe it or not are really good to get your battery from - my local dealer (inchcape, so a massive dealership) charged me approx £60 for a brand spanking new battery a few weeks ago. And I think they call it their opti-fit range or something!

I just had a 'clifford' Viper alarm fitted to the soop last friday. And it is the best alarm I have had and used. 2 way remotes so it tells you if its locked or unlocked - and also notifies you when the car alarm is going off (live info - within 1000ft) so you know to check it. Well worth looking into one - mine cost me £450 (CAT1 - fully fitted) which included removing the prehistoric clifford alarm that was in the soop from japan http://www.directed.com/security/viper/images/tx1.jpg

I will have the ecu off you if you will let it go seperately

I had 265/35/18 Pirelli Pzeros the assimetro ones on the rear of my soop, they lasted 9 months which i was a bit shocked about as they were damn expensive... Just got some cheap avons at about 1/4 the price so will see how they fair up over then next few months..

Phoenix in Watford - Im in Woking also, got my full service and a few other things done - they were awesome - willing to stay till my car was complete that night and everything. Well worth the little drive for the good work. (damn you - thought it was a recent thread)

All the best..... you can do it, you have showed so much strength so far - my thoughts are with you.

Yeah saw that one - was v. intrested but he is in Germany and idealy I wanted to collect. - a road trip would be a nice though:)

Does anyone have one that they want to sell me;)

I could swear blind your location wasnt in your profile earlier - hmmm Nevermind, would be cheaper than £75 to drive to you in the soop

Possible to collect ? where abouts are you fella ?

Ok well if you still have it I can come and collect this weekend - I am in Surrey, so will need to know sometime before the weekend as its a far few hours away.

Front wings if they are available at some point please

Is this still for sale and where abouts exactly are you in Avon?

How about either: Paying for her to have her hair done then buy her a new outfit and take her out for dinner. You could get a photo of you both framed and wrap that up, or you could go to one of those professional photographers and wake her up with breakfast in bed;)

Yeah I am intrested - do you have a pic?

Great, cheers mate for that I will send her an e-mail now!

Yes please - (I know, been on the hunt for ages:( ) Do you know if she still has them for sale by any chance?

Wanted.... Standard Toyota side skirts, somewhere in the SE area so that I can come and collect, would be a bonus if they were already bronze - but we cant have everything we want.

where abouts in the country are you?
