Fuming women driver

Update after about 14 months all sorted settled out of court :D roll on to yesterday would you believe it car parked with wife in passenger seat and yes another white suv reverses into the front again IS THIS CAR JINXED anyway all sorted going in for repair 6th feb just paint damage that I can see so full front bumper respray which to be honest it needed anyway as had been peppered since replaced
 
Exact same thing happened to me years ago.
Behind a 4x4 at lights when he reversed, still no idea why. He was all apologetic and said his insurance would sort it. A few days later his Insurance contacted me saying that I'd bumped into him!
Took months to sort it but I got my car sorted in the end.
It happened before camera phones, which are a bonus today I suppose .

And the saga continues car arrived and not happy at all orange peel still showing in quite a few places and then I see this 🤬 not acceptable at all so back it goes again 🤬🤬715EED2F-31E6-4F1C-9D2E-DFE3CE572D63.png0C6112BE-890E-4137-B204-D753CB383A20.jpeg
 
Surely these people can see this? Why would they deliver a car knowing it wasn't correct? The mind boggles.

I know I had already pulled them on the orange peel and they were ment to put this right and the car went through a quality check think the guy should have gone to specsavers :x
 
Did they fit the badge with a hammer? I had similar angst with the repair on my car, I think they must rush the jobs through with the result being that quality suffers! :evil:

Sometimes I think the just chance their luck in the hope that the customer will just accept it!

Was this an insurance co approved / recommended body shop
 
Unreal....but reality most people won't even look and jump straight back in their car. Good luck getting it sorted, but tbh if that's what they feel is ok they're probably not good enough to do a decent job.
