Excellent service throughout.

I have received three cars this year with the help from Debbie at Lexus and Chris from Swansway. Their customer service was excellent right from the beginning, from the quote to the delivery of the vehicles they kept me updated throughout. There has been delays however this has been a problem with the car industry as a whole. It was explained to me from the beginning.
I would highly recommend.

Good Afternoon Mr Round.

Thank You for taking the time to provide us with your feedback regarding your enquiries with our advertised dealers.
All of the deals advertised on our website come from main dealerships from all around the UK and when we are made aware that a deal may no longer be valid, we contact the dealer, investigate further and remove the deal from the website if proved no longer valid. The enquiries that you have put through to our dealers seem to be advertised as factory orders, do you have a copy of the quote/ communication you may have received in regards to stock orders so we can investigate this further? If so, please could you send this to us at enquiries@whatcar-leasing.co.uk
We are happy to help you locate an alternative offer if needed, please could you also provide us with your best contact number to do so.

If you have any further questions regarding this or need any help, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Personal experience

I have referred to this website and service over the last six years or so, including receiving the updates every few days, and I do like the clarity and the immediacy of the website.
Notably, I have only given four stars to the website, which is because on a previous occasion an offer was shown and when I requested a quotation, the deal was considerably more expensive that the one on offer. To be fair to What Car Leasing, they immediately addressed the matter and the errant dealer was subsequently 'advised' and their offer was corrected.
I accept that the issue was not of What Car's making, but it was nevertheless an offer on their website.
I am currently using the site to arrange for a car replacement and have just submitted a request for a quote from one of the dealers, so let's see how we go on.
