The VT has been done using the appropriate letter,
the issue now is they are trying to charge me a fee that would bring the car up to a reasonable standard even though they state the work has not taken place and the car has been sold.
They also state that the fee is to cover the sale value of the car although as I stated how can they do that when the car is being sold at auction,
I have also told them I intend to push this all the way using all agencies available,
my wife spoke to the Financial Conduct Authority a couple of days ago and they stated that this could possibly be verging on a criminal offence on the part of Advantage Finance depending on the T's & C's of the agreement which only states reasonable condition.
I can easily prove that the particular alloy wheels supplied on these cars are all prone to corrosion and as for a few paint scratches on the rear bumper of an estate car when it's ten years old is in my opinion reasonable, especially when there were far more serious scratches on the drivers door. This is going to be interesting to see if they really want to pursue this.
Advantage also state that my account will not be marked as settled on credit reference until this is settled even though this is not the credit agreement, is this correct?
