Just had our contract cancelled by RTA themselves as they said it was ‘no longer financially viable for them to continue to advertise our business’. They came and valued our business about 4/5 years ago. The sales guy told us the ‘supposed’ value of our business. We paid an initial fee for them to sell our business and apart from the commission when sold there were no other fees payable. Assured of this we felt there was just the general T’s & C’s so stupidly didn’t read the contract and just signed while he was giving his chatter !!
Then a couple of months ago we received the letter cancelling our contract, along with a fee payable of £950.00 + vat for the pleasure. We emailed them straight away to say we weren’t told about this, we weren’t currently trading due to the pandemic and had had no business since March and try to argue the fee to get it waived.
We heard nothing for about a month, then received a final letter warning us to basically pay or go to court.
My husband called them and managed to negotiate the fee down to £400 as we had signed the contract. He ended the call by calling the guy on the phone a rude name and the company he worked for a shower of st !!
