Refund me or the stick gets it.

A few years ago we hired a motorhome for a week. After travelling from Nottingham up the west coast, across the north coast and down the east coast of the UK almost every motorhome waved at us! I thought it was a bit silly, but when I was about 18 I owned a Mk3 Spitfire, and all the other...

Thanks Sprocket, The plug no:3 is the one ( S3 adaptor? ) Cigar lighter plug other end and we're cooking. Many thanks

Hi Everyone, If I use my 12v telly on a non hook up site, I need a cable that is a "cigar lighter" plug one end, and a small 4 pin "din" type plug the other end. I've tried Maplin's etc but they don't do one. Any ideas?

Hi JGX, Your post and mine are complete mirror images of our events this week. It can't be a coincidence that we both own a Swift 'van, and the dealer's were miraculously galvanised into action. This is the customer service that SHOULD be the norm, not an exception every time some poor owner...

Hello again everyone. Further to the my previous posts, the dealer inspected my 'van, took it into their workshop and repaired it! They then placed it back in their storage compound for me. How's that for customer service. A million percent improvement. I don't know what prompted their sudden...

Hello again everyone, and thank you for your comments. There's been a major development! I had a call today, from a nice young man in the dealers service department. He said: "can you get your keys to me asap so we can have a look and let you know what's wrong". Their customer service has now...

Sean: I'm pleased you've had good service from "said" dealer, maybe it's a different one. In twenty years I've had 2 warranty issues and had trouble both times. Lord B: Correct! I haven't named the dealer. I just feel after sales service, in a lot of cases, could (should) be improved. My...

Perhaps I've not made my point properly. I'm not slagging the dealers or manufacturers just for the sake of it. The point I wanted to make is that new vans are poured into the market seemingly without the network to cope with ongoing customer issues once they are out there.

I've actually bought six 'vans from them over the years. Good trade ins, good salesmen, good prices. They just fall down on after sales service if there is a problem

Thanks SL, It's not just Swift, I've bought Bailey and Elldis from the same dealer and it's always the same story. We're too busy!!!!!!!! Well open a warrenty workshop then! I just think a lot of manufacturers and dealers don't care when they've taken your dosh. I'll get it fixed elsewhere but...

Bought a new Swift Challenger 570 from a well known East Nottingham dealership in June last year. Goodbye £15,000, and goodbye customer service. Faulty cooker, shorting out, smells like it's melting! Dealer says sorry mate, we'll LOOK at it sometime in June, even though I store it in their...
