Have I been ripped off?
Just had the tracking done on my VTR and been charged £64.63. Is this right? Apparently everything was quite siezed. They normally charge £35 an hour so this works out to 1.5 hours work + VAT.
He also said something about some bar been bent which I advised him had been done recently when I have it lowered and had to be bent and extended otherwise it would have caused rubbing. Said they have got it so it's on 2-3mm out but say it may cause some rubbing. Have they fu**ed it up?
Cheers
