Unprompted review
Reply from Autotrader UK
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
I’m sorry to hear that your advert didn’t generate the level of interest you were hoping for and that the experience didn’t meet your expectations.
I understand how disappointing that can be, especially after paying to advertise your vehicle.
While Autotrader provides a platform to advertise vehicles to a large audience, we’re unable to guarantee the number of views, enquiries, or a sale. These are usually down to:
Your vehicle’s popularity
The time of year
Financial and economic factors
Price
The quality of your advert
If you would like to discuss this with us further, please contact us on 0345 111 0003, or email us at customerexperience@autotrader.co.uk. We are open Monday - Saturday 9am - 5pm.
Thanks,
Tilly
