PATHETIC SERVICE

<p>"Goregaun Ashtavinayak Mumbai PATHETIC SERVICE" My Name is Alisha Lobo I had booked a Chevrolet Sail U-VA on the 14th November 2012 and I had asked them to deliver the car on the 26th December 2012 which happens to be my Anniversary after all the payments done loan passed and finally comes the day I was suppose to get my delivery but they called me on 25th saying I will not get the delivery on 26th as they don't have the model, and they promised me a delivery on the 28th then they gave me a date on the 2nd of Jan 2013 and told me the compensation part they will give me accessories worth 6000 and also the car registered of 2013 without any extra cost, I said OK as I had the heart's for the car then they promised me 7th then 10th now its the 11th still I have not received my car. Just came back from the showroom we reached at( 7pm and till 12.30am) the situation was so bad that after not getting the car on time they are not ready to pay me my money pack its only after the police intervened the managements is asking us to leave come tomorrow and then they will look into the matter. that means tomorrow also there is no surety that they will come up with any solution, in short I spent 2months + 4 hours till mid night to get this bulls*** from them.</p>Not Professional at allEverything
