Bought a Ford Transit on here last month and all went well, not sure what the experience is like as a seller, can see mixed reviews here but as a buyer it is great. Found the campervan through google search

Quick and Hassle-Free Sale of My VW Campervan!

I recently sold my VW campervan using Life with a Van, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. After trying a few other sites that were full of time-wasters, I found Life with a Van to be great. The platform was incredibly easy to use, and I received a lot of inquiries from interested buyers. Within just a few weeks, my campervan was sold! I highly recommend Life with a Van to anyone looking to sell their vehicle. Highly recommend

My Van sold within the first week!

At first I had a few questions and their support team were very quick and helpful when replying.

I would use this again over eBay as I didn't have to pay any transaction fees which was especially useful for me as my van was listed at £20K.

My van sold very quick and I got over 300 clicks on my van ad. I would highly recommend.

Was contacted through eBay to list on the site. Really struggling to get any messages or leads through eBay but so far had 5 leads and only it’s only been on couple of weeks! Feeling positive about getting it sold. Will update the review once Ive sold and if I’ve sold if sold through “life with a van”.

Stay away

As mentioned by another the site is recommended via an Ebay message. Should have realised then its total rubbish just to get your fee for 10 views in a week. Stay clear. jocox_36 is the Ebay 'user' who recommends. Just so happens to have left a positive review on life with a van too! No coincidence.

Wasted the fee to get 9 views

Wasted the fee to get 9 views. Was suggested from a message on eBay, I can see it was a scam. I’ll be warning others not to waste their money I’m afraid.

Hi Steffan,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're truly sorry to hear that our service did not meet your expectations and understand how disappointing it can be to feel that the value received did not match your investment.

We want to assure you that customer satisfaction is our top priority and we take feedback like yours very seriously.

Please contact us directly so we can discuss this further and explore how we might provide assistance or rectification. Our goal is to ensure that all our customers have a positive experience, and we hope to have an opportunity to restore your faith in our service.

Warm regards,
The Life With a Van Team
