Repeated calls from this company, they are extremely cocky and rude. I asked the caller not to call me mate and he just kept saying mate mate mate, very unprofessional and pushy. Why don't people like this just get a real job and stop pestering people and wasting others' time.

"Jakes & Corby, rude swindlers and scammers. Always keeping you and trading standards busy."

Fools - the above has been FAKED!

We had calls from this number today. The caller was, at first persistent, then offensive. When My partner hung up on him he proceeded to make nuisance calls thoughout the day. Appalling tactics. Don't see why anybody would want to buy from this person. He ought to get a "proper job" or seek mental care!

Hello 4D Signs

We're sorry to learn of the above issues and we'd like to speak with you so that we can better understand what happened and when.

Our IT systems log all calls, and clearly if something like this has happened, we'll be able to track it and address it immediately with the person concerned.

We handle around 6,000 calls per day and we'd like to be able to apologise personally to you and as we say, address the individual concerned to ensure that this does not happen again.

Please could you therefore contact us on either 01277 89 77 70 or 01277 89 77 73 or by email to optout@motortrades.co.uk and we will investigate matters immediately with both speed and professionalism.
