Re: Awful experience with mylhd
BUYERS BEWARE
- I have had an abysmal association with My 'LHD' UK Ltd.
I paid a 20% deposit for a Mercedes SLK and, even repeated warning bells of being ignored
and not receiving replies to e-mails or telephone messages, did not prevent me from being duped by this Company.
Luckily, because of the Company's inefficiency and lack of professionalism,
information it provided about its Euro Bank Account were inaccurate and the final payment for the car did not go through
and the payment was rejected by the Company's Bank, albeit €346 short.
Sadly I did not see this forum until after I had paid the deposit and I hope that by posting other unsuspecting potential buyers
will pick up these threads as I am surprised at the online sales activity still enjoyed by such a Company.
Despite being assured by the Company Director that my deposit would be returned if my requirements could not be satisfied,
he did not honour his word.
I was advised that I was protected by the Distance Selling Regulations,
so I issued a Summons through the Courts,
but the Company lodged what I can only describe as a completely fabricated defence
which made it clear to me the course that the Proceedings would take.
Also, one must bear in mind that the Company could possibly go into voluntary liquidation
in which case any claim would be lost.
So, I closed the case down and decided to cut my losses.
An expensive lesson, but one I will never forget.
