    Would you be willing to share your draft LBA?


    see this https://postimg.cc/xkZvNQ7S

    I have mentioned the 4 areas of law I would be relying on earlier. All drafted by AI. You would be shocked what AI can do

    Sorry, but that LBA is truly awful. They will 100% know that has not come from any legal firm. It's full of waffle, unfounded accusations and demands that have nothing to do with any court.

    Agree that though the recipient will clearly know it, it's worth emphasising to the OP that they would be doing something profoundly unwise if they represent the LBA as coming from a legal firm as the draft currently implies ('our client').

    I'm also concerned that the OP is confusing a LBA with the actual issue of a claim or the court case itself.  They seem to think all they need to do is to send a LBA and the dealer will cough up £16, 000 - or something



    you never know, that would be a nice days wage  B):)o:)


    ... If I received something like this I would file it straight into the bin.

    ... Nothing in that draft suggests to me someone who is likely to launch a successful, or even comprehensible, court action.

    It sounds plausible that you could make a case for suffering some financial loss, but that wouldn't be a simplistic "I paid £x for a car I didn't want, therefore I'm claiming that amount", as you presumably still have the car?
    Moral of the story, dont use the name of a global billion dollar brand to lie to hard working individuals. If it were the reverse, and I missed a direct debit by £1 and was returned. It would be registered against me for probably 6 years

    Even if I dont get any refund out of it, I plan to ask the courts to let me publish the findings publicly against them. 

    Prior to approaching them, I had a 8 year old honda which was problematic, so when they promised me 10 year or 100k warranty and heaven and bliss, I sold my honda and jump on board, now they are denying they ever talked to me and denying emails, company letterheads, quotations etc 

    I find the level of dishonesty COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE

    ... Sorry but if that is your LBA, all it is going to do is give them a good laugh.

    Came to this late...is it some sort of wind-up?
    If you want the full story you need to read the 13 pages from last year.  Get some popcorn.  Lots of it...
