Ford Options cancel
Hi all.
Wondered if anyone could offer advice.
Looking for a second hand car I decided on a 12 month old Ford on a Ford Options deal. I paid a deposit of £250 and left the dealers awaiting the call from them regarding the acceptance of the finance. A couple of hours later they called and said that the finance had not been approved but the salesman had managed to get the finance approved through another broker. The deal is slightly different and will end up costing me an extra £30 per month. On the phone I said this was OK. On reflection I now realise this puts me over the threshold of what I can, or want to afford. I will speak to the dealer tomorrow and tell them I no longer wish to proceed with the purchase. As I've not signed finance forms am I entitled to my deposit returned?
Regards

What did it say on the receipt you got for your deposit and the order form for the new car? Did you sign anything at all?0
