rip off merchants.
Following the incident yesterday, I emailed photos of the damage to three of the online "chips away" type companies. the first one back with the quote had looked up the registration number online and found it was still linked to the Hyundai it came off of rather than the Audi its on now. Despite me telling them it was an Audi when asking for the quote, the quote came back for £221 mentioning the Hyundai. I asked them to correct the paperwork so they did and came back with a revised quote of £445!!!!!!!
Their excuse? Its a premium brand and materials cost more. FFS, we are probably just talking about 0.5 litres of paint which I am sure they mix themselves. Robbing bastards.
