    Filing out a hole and adjusting a headlight is minor , cutting the floor and the front panel back off would count as major work
     
  2. It covers goods or services

  4. Well been working on the floor and it's worse than I thought. I have scrapped the mountain range of sealer and guess what there is no seam sealer in between the panels. Looks like I'm going to have fun also on the pedel front they had the pedel the wrong way round so I can use the pedels not the best but I drive it I think IMG_20240506_120802.jpg IMG_20240506_120822.jpg IMG_20240506_120831.jpg IMG_20240506_120831.jpg IMG_20240506_120901.jpg

    What’s the time limit?

    Have you checked online to ensure what they told you is correct.

    To me it looks like a breach of contract/misrepresentation by LVH.


    It's irrelevant that LVH no longer exist.

    You should submit a section 75 claim against the credit card company as soon as possible after you realised there had been a breach of contract/misrepresentation.

    You just realised this recently.

    Statute of limitations for breach of contract is 6 years.

    Do your own thorough research, speak to citizens advice bureau.

    Then submit a claim to get your money back.

    You may have to get an expert to write a report about the sub standard work completed etc.

    I'll happily help you/ look at your claim before you submit it to the credit card company.

  12. @grimreaper focus your energy on getting your money back from the credit card company

    I've messaged you a draft letter that you only need to add a few details to.

    Let me have your email and i can send it as a word document which will make it even easier for you

  13. I mean who doesn’t do staged payments?
    You wouldn’t put seam sealer between panels when welding them on !
    How are you going to prove it’s not up to scratch ?

  14. If it failed the MOT on headlights, then that should be enough in itself to demonstrate to the credit card company the work wasn't fit for purpose.

    The Brake peddle hitting the new floor further supports this.

    If they ask for more proof then a report from an independent specialist may be necessary

    they are very very minor issues , I think you would need a bit more than that or folks could draw money back at a whim

  16. Well who hear like a wiring nightmare. I have all ready blown a fuse just to get the wires out of the front panel IMG_20240511_151212.jpg IMG_20240511_151225.jpg IMG_20240511_151250.jpg IMG_20240511_151259.jpg IMG_20240511_151212.jpg IMG_20240511_151225.jpg IMG_20240511_151250.jpg IMG_20240511_151259.jpg
     
  17. They may be just cheap LED non compliant headlights ? Or just a beam alignment . If he did what you asked or was it in a contract about standard of work . I’m super Anal about everything but the next man may not be . Did you part ex a vehicle in payment or spend big bucks . Very difficult situation . You may have to take it as a lesson and move on
