Today we VT'd our Mini Countryman using the standard template provided by @R0b by both signed-for post and email - I'm hoping this will be a reasonably straightforward process as we are well within our pro-rated mileage allowance, well past 50% contribution on our PCP, there are no arrears on the account and the car is going in for a full valet tomorrow at which point I'll take lots of pictures!
We've terminated immediately as of today, received an automated email reply from Mini Financial services, and therefore cancelled our Direct Debit too - as the automated email reply we took from other posts here to be sufficient acknowledgement of receipt of termination. The usual payment date of the Direct Debit is the 1st of the month, we viewed this as more than sufficient notice giving the immediate termination date of the 25th.
We're VT'ing because the car is no longer suitable for us - the wife's increasing disability means she cannot now drive a manual car comfortably, so we are replacing the current manual Mini with an automatic VW. The car is in great shape and considerably under mileage allowance, though we have been mildly irritated by a small scratch on the rear bumper that we expect will cost us a few quid at collection time given Mini's love for the BVRLA regulations and standard remediation pricing of between £40-£110 + VAT :-(
So this is simply a short note to say "thanks" to everyone involved here for running this great resource, and I dearly hope I don't need any further help, assistance or advice on this matter. However we would absolutely never have been brave enough to even start this process without the information and templates here.
My wife thanks each and every one you in advance for giving her personal mobility back to her a clear 7 months earlier than we would otherwise have been able to do without VT'ing the current car.
