Firstly not sure how you know which file this is in conjunction with as the purchase was all in my partners name. He did come in to try and talk to you about the service we received and you personally were not interested in giving him the time of day and just told him you would get Louisa to call him. The standard response we always got! The vendor may have had a good experience but that doesn't change the fact ours was awful. I now feel I am being positioned as a liar and you are passing the ...
