Awful throughout

Awful service throughout. Got promised the world by the account manager. Signed up and have done nothing but return vans due to faults. Now they are trying to charge us for the replacement vans as well as the original vans. Account manager has wiped his hands and said he's the middle man. Depot manager speaks to you like rubbish and lies through teeth. Trying to deal with CS team to resolve only to now be told i need to return all vans for nothing more than they are having a paddy. Please avoid especially at an enterprise level
