Disadvantages: They Will Use Their "Power" To Manipulate And Abuse Your Rights!!!

Have you ever thought about getting finance for a car and saw the Wecome Car advert on TV. If so and you are still thinking about it please take this advice, they are a bunch of thieves in suits. They show you the cars, you sign for them then you find that there are extras on the contract that you knew nothing about. I found that they had charged me £300 for an "optional extra" that had never been mentioned previously. Then the car was faulty and infested with ants which they refused to sort. I was therefore out of pocket for that and then the car was recalled from the garage for having a maufacturing fault in the brakes. Again I got no help from the company with this. Instead they decided that they would increase my term time for repaying to allow me to recober the costs I had encurred. This was ok until I realised that I was pying more back than originally signed for and more than 3 times the value of the car. To make matters worse they tried to get me to sign a blank contract and they would then fill in the blanks and send me a copy. I refused and then I got chased by them with this new contract which I never signed. They had forged my signiture from another form I signed and had the audacity to send me the "new" contract. This is all now being investigated.
They also neglect to tell you that Welcome Car Finance do not provide the finance it is in fact their Mother company Welcome Finance so this makes it easier for them to abuse your trust and harder foryou to get out of the contract when you find you have been misled.

So if you are thinking of financing a car through them then please try elsewhere first as I'd hate that someone else goes through the same aggrevation as I have just because they seem the easiest option.
