Terrible customer service

Despite numerous calls and messages confirming my appointment, I arrived at the garage to be told the car I was coming to view was sold. They made no effort to apologise for a wasted journey then seemed annoyed that i didn’t hang around to look at other cars even though they had none of the one I wanted in stock. Maybe next time, ring the customer just out of courtesy.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are very sorry to learn about your experience. We completely understand how frustrating and disappointing it must have been to make the journey to view a vehicle, having received confirmation of your appointment, only to find that the car had already been sold.

While we appreciate that vehicles can sell quickly, we agree that a courtesy call or message should have been made as soon as the vehicle was no longer available. We are also sorry to hear that you did not receive the apology and understanding that you deserved on arrival.

At Vertu Motors, we aim to provide a professional and customer-focused experience at all times, and it is clear that on this occasion we fell short of those standards. Your feedback is invaluable and will be shared with the management team to help improve our communication processes going forward.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and we hope there may be an opportunity to restore your confidence in the future.

Kind regards,
Keith

Visited Ford Newcastle

Visited Ford Newcastle on Saturday which turned out to be a disaster, considering the reputation Ford Newcastle have, I did not experience anything positive.

I had attended on friday to discuss test driving a van due to wanting to sell my current and one and hopefully upgrade. I spoke to a man who kindly arranged a test drive the following morning at 10:15am and stated he would give me a valuation for my current vehicle part exchange. I received an email and text confirmation also. I arrived at Ford Newcastle on Saturday at 10:05am, spoke to the man at the reception area and he proceeded to direct me to another member of staff to sort the test drive.
Once speaking with man he stated that not only can he not see anything under my name in the system but that also the vehicles I requested to test drive and received confirmation for, were booked out to another customer. Not one was available considering I wanted to test drive hybrid / petrol / diesel / fully electric vans. I was turned away. Not only was this completely unacceptable considering I had confirmation of the booking but I had turned down work on that day to attended Ford for a complete waste of time. The man who told me the vehicles were not available did not give me any other options for booking in another test drive or when the vans may be available. I was simply given nothing. Shocking customer service. I will not be returning back. Review has been written to ensure no other customer receives the shocking and unacceptable service I did.
