Gurdip Virdi - DO NOT BUY CARS FROM HIM DODGY- barbercarsales barbercarsales.co.uk


Recommended Posts

Post a link please. Oh and welcome to CAG :)

 

Actually, i'll post one. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/jailed-longford-traders-sold-cars-8817499

 

Brilliant news. Virdi, Pittaway and friends have been ripping people off for literally years. It will be interesting to see if the business at Longford road now keeps operating or not.... they still have ads on ebay.

 

What amazes me most is that David Barber (or "Dave Babar" as listed on their ebay ads), is actually a real person... I assumed he was a made up second identity for Virdi or Pittaway.

Well Gurdip is still heavily involved with the business - I've been dealing yet again with their eBay account and have been told numerous times that Gurdip is dealing with my complaint etc.

 

They are now under yet another name of 'Undernewmanagement' on eBay so be warned, they have far from stopped trading.

I just thought I'd let everyone here know that I have finally got my £500 - it's only taken since January but I am aware that most of you haven't received a penny back so I thought I'd share with you how I got it back.

 

Basically, I think he might be a sadist as I was just incredibly rude and nasty to him. I was calling him names (I never swore though) and I was generally a pain in his arse!

 

I would email every other day, hounding him until I think he got fed up with me as I went through eBay so he couldn't not check his messages lol.

 

Anyhow, I won't be pursuing him any further as I'm sick of the sight of his name on my computer screen... It's worth a go guys, get mean and nasty on his ass - he seems to respond well to it.

I've had it in dribs and drabs over the last month or so - some has come from Barber cars account and most came from Gurdip Virdi's account (Not involved with the business though huh? hmmm)

 

He paid it directly into my account.

I would suggest maybe they have turned over a new leaf............ but they seem to be listing the same old scrappers on eBay. I can only assume Do EveRYthiNg must be very persuasive.....thumbscrews? :!:

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

he may be using a different name but cars and vans/vans and cars it’s all the same

Gerard Bird/Gerry Bird/G Bird aka Gurdip Singh Virdi

He is still doing the same thing, operating from the same premises at 101a Longford, I’m guessing during Covid they got the great idea to rip people off remotely and charge people for the pleasure.

they now deliver cars that are shocking quality and refuse to even accept the issues you find. Then Gaslight you into thinking your the problem and call you an idiot for buying a used car instead of a new one.

Buyers beware this thread is vitally important
