End of Contract Managed Poorly and Customer Mislead
Our car was collected by Manheim and a report was issued on 21 May 26. Manheim take 1-2 working days to submit a report to Audi Financial Services, they usually submit it the same day. Having heard nothing from Audi Finance, 11 days later, I called Customer Services on 1 June to find out what was going on as the car was showing as ghosted with nothing to pay on the Audi Financial Services web portal. I was told by Customer Services that there was nothing to pay bar a £10 administrative fee the following month. As I thought that there would be something to pay I asked her to check with the team responsible a number of times. She was adamant that there was nothing to pay and our contract was at an end. An email was sent to us at 1:11pm on 1 June by the Customer Service Advisor at Audi Financial Services stating that:
"Thank you for contacting Audi Financial Services.
I would like to confirm that there is no EOC charges.
You only have to pay the OTP fee £10."
On 17th June we received an end of contract invoice, which was now unexpected following our conversation on 1 June, which has caused issue. Audi have since confirmed that Manheim sent the report to them on 21 May, so we shouldn't have been told that there was nothing to pay. The first member of customer resolutions that I spoke to on 17 June was rude and unhelpful, the person I spoke with on 18 June was excellent and escalated the matter. A complaint is in progress.
