What am I supposed to do?

You could always stop posting about them. At the end of the day they're just people you sold a car to. It's not as if you're heavily invested in persuading people of how great they are... is it?

Well after I had sold my car to them I was contacted by Feefo and asked to provide a rating and a review. Based on my experience I can only assume that the majority of their customers decide to use that instead of this website, and after posting on here I don't blame them either. It takes about 30 seconds to sign up for this website so obviously there is going to be people like me who are either curious or just leaving a one off review. I can find 3 positive comments about the company on here (including the person who started this thread), yet every time they are greeted with the SAME assumptions by the SAME people...people who I highly doubt have used the company themselves.

The company came on this website, and posted without getting prior approval of the moderators, which is against all the rules, and had their post removed.

It's not hard to believe a company which can so easily break the rules of this website is one to which you cannot entrust a vehicle worth thousands of pounds in the hope that they will then pay money into your bank. At least we now know of three people who have been paid. What we don't know is how much they were paid in relation to the car concerned, and whether they paid what they initially said the car was worth.

If the company is in the course of being struck off, as opposed to just being removed, something untoward must have happened.

But this website is not a review website so why would you signup here and leave a review?

I have been looking to sell my car for a few days now, looked through a few different companies, however nationwide car buyer have offered me the most money along with free collection. Have any of you personally used them before? If so how did you find it? I see a few negative comments on this thread which makes me a little wary. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

But you also appear to have sold your car to them in early December...

Bit of advice Hannah, if you're gonna spam for a company try using a username that does not easily indentify you

P.S Are you aware it's specifically against the law to post reviews on the web posing as a satisfied customer when you are connected to a company.

Have a read of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations
