Abdul 0 Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Ok so I bought some mdf speaker mounts off him for an impending corrado project. Anyway he quoted me a price for the mounts shipped, I payed it. Rest is here: Then this followed after I asked for a refund of my money. Basically he hadn't accounted for postage in the above price which was an additional $50. Now there's no way I'm going to pay that as I can get the mounts made for half that over here. Then this: Read it very carefully.. "But from your name I realise why you are the way you are. Classless". My name is Abdul M Chowdhury btw. Bang out of order IMO. I'm a bit speechless now tbh. Edited March 19, 2013 by Abdul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean_Jaymo 0 Posted March 19, 2013 That's not on really! I'm sure will loose some business now based on his attitude. I personally found his stuff over priced for what it is. I do like the backlit dials, but again, a touch pricey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted March 19, 2013 I doubt this will aftect his business at all. As a salesman he provides a great service but when he makes an error he then insults me like that. I certainly hope the mods don't close this thread as I've been a part of this community for some time now and quite a few people have dealt with me etc and know how i am. Totally laid back about everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted March 19, 2013 Wow. Close the thread? If I was a mod I'd be banning him for the forum. Totally totally inexcusable. ---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 PM ---------- Personally I'd post the links on VW Vortex & the spoonfedtuning facebook page too, however victims of discrimination often don't speak out. I'm livid. :mad2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wesleyvr6 10 Posted March 19, 2013 What a Joke!! Thanks for posting this, I was going to place an order for a full scuttle panel this week too, certainly won't be doing now with customer service like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 19, 2013 ^ Yep - I'd ban him for that too but I'd like to give him the chance to respond to this first... Are you out of pocket Abdul?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps you/a mod can alert him to the thread for an explanation? I feel sick with anger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 19, 2013 BB - I'll discuss with the other mods / Andi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Thanks for the support guys. Supercharged, he's said in one of his replies he's issued a refund, nothing in my PayPal yet but I guess it's because it's a transaction from abroad? Either way it's only £24 but that wasn't the point in the first place. I'm happy to see him reply but unless he does some photoshop work on the above messages it's pretty clear what went down to be honest. If you have access to my pm's you're welcome to check them. Baz, thanks mate. I'm still shocked at that last comment to be honest. Being called an asshole when I did nothing wrong is one thing but that took the biscuit.

Supercharged 2 Posted March 20, 2013 I've not got PM access but Andi / Tom will look if required - lets see if the refund comes through first.. I thought they were usually instant but showed as 'pending' but maybe not from the US? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Refund is pending. Didn't show up on my transactions screen for some reason. Edited March 20, 2013 by Abdul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted March 20, 2013 Could you please post up your request for a refund if you have it? That is one piece of the conversation that's missing and the turning point where he seems to go off the rails - did you say anything inflammatory to him? Either way I agree the racist comment was unacceptable in any way and I don't think we can have that sort of thing happening here. Totally unacceptable.

BILLCOR 1 Posted March 20, 2013 Totally out of order no matter what was said, but after the fiasco I had with him last year, I'm not surprised by this!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

craigowl 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Yes, people often claim the Americans know how to deliver good customer service and we don't. I know from experience that they can flip and become extremely obnoxious. Andi - for word "racist" I think you meant to say "racism"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BILLCOR 1 Posted March 20, 2013 But you did get a free spoiler for your troubles ! WTF!! Are you his guardian angel or something, every time Spoonfed is mentioned, you are around making excuses for for his totally poor customer service and looking at the messages Abdul received, this confirms what I thought all along.......that DOGGER is in fact an A$$HOLE who couldn't run a pi$$ up in a brewery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abdul - please keep us in the loop if you have any troubles with your refund.
