Default NEVER GO TO BATHWICK TYRES

FUCKING RIP OFF C*NTS!!!

i just went and had 2 tyres fitted, i supplyed the tyres and i have flush fit valves, so all they done was fit the tyres and balance them which took all of 10 mins

i ususally go to kwick fit and it costs £5 per wheel, but they were busy and i need em on asap as mine were, well, "on the limit" lol


them c*nts however charged me £35.75 for the pleasure of the dumb fucking nobhead to scratch my wheels too

im not very fuckin impressed at the mo!

yeah how come you paid up, surely he would have said that is '£35.75 please'

and you should have said my wallet is in the car, let me just go an fetch it, then get in, pretend to look for it whilst starting it up, then ram it in reverse and fuk off, to never go back again.

thats just plain unfortunate about the cutting out...

as for the trowbridge branch, i went there once in 2002 and bought 2 Avon ZZ1's, back then, as far as i can remember, everything was okay including the price.

but obviously within 3 years their customer service has got even sh!tter

well he said the "boss" doesnt like just fitting tyres they dont supply, hence why they drop your keks, bend you over, and ride you like a nympho!

just get a load of white gloss paint, and walk round there at 2am, and lob 10 litres over the fence onto the car park and walls/doors...

that will cause f'ing and blindin....

the will have to spend the profit they made on you, cleaning it all up fast

I dont know about this palce particualrly. But a lot of tyre places take the piss with fitting costs when you didnt buy the things from them in the 1st place. I dont blame them to be honest. Its just pure labour time as normally the fitting is included in the tyre price.

You still need to chase the damage though.
