I had pre-paid for the vehicle though. If they want to give away a vehicle I’ve already paid for then I need a refund. I wasn’t even offered the difference between a M5 and B group car back. Also, I had asked a colleague to tell them I was running late. If my car was going to be given away then why not tell him then?

I was specifically told by the CSR that it was because my vehicle had been logged as returned late.
