I sent my Voluntary termination letter on Wednesday 19th May and this was accepted. I had my car collected on Tuesday 25th May and inspected upon collection.
The man quoted me 420 damages for stupid little scuffs, scratches and a dent which was less than 2cm. Albeit they noted my car in average condition both inside and out. The man told me to refuse to sign for the damages (which I was going to anyway) and said that it was in brilliant condition compared to some of the cars he collected, one of the best actually.
Today I received a letter from my finance company Moneyway saying those charges have been added to my account's outstanding balance. I was hoping they would have cleared the charges as they were ridiculous.
I used the template letter about excessive damage and have sent this today stating also that I've paid more than 50% about 500 pounds more and that this covers the damages and that I also deny liability for the damages and the onus is on them to prove they were first down to me and second that they are beyond excessive wear and tear.
Nervous now about whether they will wipe the charges as I refuse to pay them. The car is 8 years old and has 66k miles on its clock. Its obviously gonna have a few light scratches and scuffs on it.
