Paid 4 car in cash ,know told that more money needed as not enough taken thier fault not mine?
Answers:
they accepted your money gave you the car keys you fulfilled the contract they will have a hard job getting more
What? you bought it!
IF YOU ALLREADY HAVE THE CAR THEN DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY MONEY.IF THEY STILL HAVE THE CAR I WOULD GET YOUR MONEY BACK AND GO ELSE WHERE, SOUNDS A BIT DODGY!!
That depends, from a totally legal perspective, depends on where you are and how the transaction occurred. Did they give you a receipt showing you paid the full $5,800? If so, they are SOL. If not, it may have to be settled in claims court.
From an ethical point of view, you know you agreed to pay $5,800 and it seems like you know they only took $5,000. Therefore, unless you want to be an unethical cheating jerk, the proper thing to do would be to pay the money owed.
I don't think you would appreciate them asking the same question if you found out you accidentally overpaid them $800.
If they signed a contract and gave you a reciept for £5000 then your ok - If the reciept states £5800 then the contract would be void i believe but they have to prove you only paid £5000
If the sale document says 5800, you owe them 800 and they could sue you for it. Mind you they'd have to prove you only gave them 5000. You could try ignoring them - they might give up.
If the sale document says 5000, they are not entitled to any more. If they continue to ask for it, you can report them to the local trading standards office.
if you already have the car, then no. If they still have the car id tell them to keep it, your not interested.
Did you get the title for the car..a reciept stating paid in full? Any paperwork signed saying you would pay the other 800? if you got the title or reciept saying paid in full..dont pay them another cent. IF you signed anything saying you would pay the balance of 800..then you owe them..pay it
If you are in a supermarket and they sell you a £20 item for £5, then it is their fault, and once you leave they have no legal right to ask for any extra money.
I would imagine it is the same with cars, once youve left with the car and the keys, its tough on the garage. They should have raised the issue at the time of signing the papers. If they didnt mention it then, they I would walk away $800 better off.
If however they said at the time, come back with $800, then I would think you are obliged to pay.
Bottom line - their fault, they should have done their bit properly.
One word springs to mind:
CAUGHT !
If I understand your question correctly you were told that the cost of the car was 5800.oo of which he had paid 5000.00 to a garage (for repairs?) and now he wants an additional 4800.00? If he quoted you 5800.00 and you pd 5800. oo, did he give you a bill of sale for 5800.00 (you need that to register) that states how you paid for the car? Thats like saying the donut is 1.00 and after you've eaten it he had jacked up the price you got a receipt for a $1.00 and now he wants a 1.50 therefore owing him .50 There is no more due him. It's his fault not yours. Now if you haven't gotten the bill of sale and the vehicle because you were making payments, demand your money back and go elsewhere since you have the right to change your mind to buy it. I hope he wasn't a friend of yours.
they cannot charge you more than the previously agreed by both parts when the deal was made.most verbal agreements cannot be discussed once their been consumated.
ps i hpoe it helps
It depends how the mistake came about. If you paid in cash and they took your money without checking it, they cannot they prove that you underpaid.
I don't understand why they are asking for an extra 4,800, this doesn't add up.
no you don't have to give them money did you sing any paper for the amount of 5800 you might be in trouble
Did the garage accept £5000 as you were paying cash and are now asking for the extra £800 or did you only take £5000 and hoped they wouldn't notice? If it was the former I don't think you should pay if the latter then perhaps you should - talk to your local Citizen's Advice Bureau
I think you will find that its their problem they should have counted the money.

If you have an order form for the order stating £5800.00,and you have signed this then you have a contract to pay the full amount.
Just be aware it is very cheap for companies to take people to small claims courts these days,and you could be getting yourself in to deeper trouble for the sake of being dishonest about £800.00. It is a matter of personal conscience,if it was your business how would you react,people do not like cheats.
