Unfair company. They called me for placing an ad about my car (they got my number from another ad site). It seemed to be a good deal, since £100 single fee until I'll sell my car isn't too much.
But then the problems were started: I didn't receive any invoice (they promised two times), than I realized that the fee would be only £79.99 based on their website, and I felt trimmed... Than someone called me to ask if I've got the invoice, and if anyone called me since I started the advert. ...and next week they removed another £10 from my account - for placing my ad into a magazine. Although I can't recall if we would talk about any additional fee.
Finally the website can be the largest, but far the worst and not well known at all. I haven't even received any calls from buyers.

It would appear to me that buying a car from these is all well & good. I received a phone call from these after putting my car on exchange & mart, indicating they had buyers 'lined up' and wanted the £79.99 to register me & 'match up' a potential. Being sceptical I then e-mailed them asking if I could pay AFTER the car was sold, which I would be quite happy to do. How confident were they I thought? Well, they firstly didn't respond, then said that their T's & C's stipulated they need it up front. My response was: 'Very convenient. Your Terms & Conditions speak volumes to me'. Other similar companies have also contacted me along the same lines and ...  Read the complete review

Had a very DAUNTING & DREADFUL experience dealing with cardata. I advertised my vehicle on autotrader and highlighted trade re-sellers exclusions and yet the sales people from cardata contacted me and lured me in registering with them explaining the numerous advantages, moneyback guarantees, quick sales etc.etc. I found out that these advantages were all a whopper...7 days is what they claim to sell the vehicle at the full price..Havent had even a single call yet. I called the customer services and there was a massive delay in answering the call and then i was told that there will be no refund and if i had any problems, i'll have to contact their complaints ...  Read the complete review
