Multiple phonecalls within 5mins of speaking to him finally accepted and agreed to a good deal. Car was picked up very quickly the next day and taken away for scrap. He Then promised the money in my account by 6pm...just to let you know they shut there phone lines at 5pm so no way of contacting them. Beautiful sales pitch to to avoid the payment not going in, was expecting to be honest(that's me lie). I will 'hopefully' get my money for scrap car 'probably' Monday as there closed over weekend. But fair play George for insisting on a review. Not your fault mate just part of a c#ntish system. Other than that 5 out of 5 for customer service and speedy collection of car.....fingers crossed for monday payment 💪Response from the ownerThank you for the rating and feedback 🙂 Sally Atkinson ★★★★★ So far great customer service from Emma to arrange my vehicle being scrappedResponse from the ownerThank you for your review and rating 🙂 Olivia Freeborough ★★★★★ Very happy with the service at Reclamet.
