Angry FFS leave me alone!!!!!

Got a car for sale at the moment and those wankers from Cardata won't fucking leave me alone On the advert I even put strictly no cardata or canvassers and I've had 3 calls and a text from the tossers

the last cow even got shirty when I told her I'm not interested "you are asking £6750, most people would be interested in getting that" me "yes but I've been scammed by you before"

They make selling a car so difficult, scamming bastards

Sorry I just needed to get that off my chest

mate,

I had these fuckers hassle me and here is the solution to getting rid of them!!

hopefully theyre ringing your mobile for maximum expense!!

next time they ring just say "ok hold on whilst i get my credit card" then put your phone in the drawer and play the see how long you can get them to wait game!!

its great and i think my best was 6 mins!!!

cheers,

Mark

Everywhere you go they are there
You only have to look on here in the for sale section for hecklers for their uncalled/unwanted comments so it must get worse advertising nationally

Anyway, you want better broadband, call me on 0906 87878787 and ask for Tim Nice but Dim

Just do a google search on them and I'm sure you'll find some good reviews lol.

They call you up stating that they have x amount of buyers in your area that will pay the full asking price for your car, all you have to do is pay them a fee which was around £80-90 and the buyers will start contacting you within the hour. That's the last you hear of them or your money though Put it this way if you were buying a car would you use cardata? I know I wouldn't!!!!

Best thing to do (imho) is say to them "I'm sorry, I can't understand you, can you get me someone who speaks English?" (this works particularly well if they are actually English) and just keep saying it to everyone who comes on the phone, they soon take your number from their database.
