Surely any invisable Ts & Cs would have no validity whatsoever in law ?

Were they "invisible", or did you just not ask to see them?

I disagree

That's nice, dear.

I think therefore, your best bet is to run it by a solicitor and get some proper legal advice.

I had a similar issue purchasing a brand new car where the salesman had "mistakenly" given me a employee discount off the retail price. This was all recorded on a proper vehicle order form/invoice. Just prior to delivery, the sales manager called me to say they were not going to honour the discount as it should never had been offered. Well I spoke to my solicitor and was advised to allow him to send a letter to the dealership pointing out that we had a valid signed contract of sale which they must honour.

The car was delivered to my door on the proviso that I never set foot in there again! The £3k discount came in very handy though!

Not sure how this will work on the "invoice" you have though.

Thank you Tilt, very good advice and very much to the point. I just wanted to get a general consensus, which I think I have received. I think I will just move on and put it down to experience.
