thats fair enough, but they should give some kind of service to customers who have just spend money with them, plus they should at least email people back and state that.

well what ever is happeneing they still owe me a hybrid turbo form 3 months ago but ive had no response. They seem to be lacking basic customer servive imo. It adds up to about £800, which isnt something to be missed!!

tbh, its they way they get treated will result in how they treat you back.... if something goes wrong, then speak calmly to them, dont rant and rave..... thats the way things get resolved imho

quote from email reply received. hope this helps a few people

We no longer do any fittings in the new workshop, we just manufacture and assemble kits.

Call (01600) 772527 if you want to discuss in more detail.

Seriously do not use ALLARDS!

Ok just a warning for the first timer tdi tuners about allrads......DO NOT USE THEM.....they still owe me a refund for my turbo from over 4 months ago and im sure there are others awaiting returns/refunds. They have recently changed their compant name to try and shake a few customers off * Fuel Efficient Systems * :whistle:

So if you have anything to say feel free to do so and WARN other VAG owners about their appauling service and obvious business issues [:@]

Tall Paul - have you tried to go down there and speak to them, or even try to speak to lloyd in person?

From everything I've heard they are a good lads down there - I dont know how much you've done to try to get your money/goods but I dont think slating them on a public forum is any way to do things. If you want to tell people in person then thats down to you but please be careful on a place like this.

Agreed. however I would imagine someone would do alot to get £800 back!

There is a difference between slating and giving your opion on the product or service delivered. Paul can give this in any thread he wants, as long as he says from his experience before every sentence ;)
