Bought item through ebay,agreed return with seller for refund,item returned through DPD organised by them but not received refund,item back on sale on ebay,don't buy from them they're con artists.

Poorly managed, Lying Company, who will be so desperate for your 50/60£ for services that they do not provide.

The last time I purchased a car from this company the car was listing as working but actually wasn't.

The car had headlights in the picture turned up with no headlights.

I purchased many cars online- This company blocked my account and refuses to re-open, unless I pay them a re-listing fee.

By the way I attempted to pay for the car on the second day after winning the bidding. They have to keep for one week without charging me anyway.

EXPLOITATION at its maximum

RUDE STAFF

LIERS

JUST AVOID AT ALL COST IN MY OPINION

Got a mirror for my focus zetec s .it fits perfectly and the right colour match too.well packaged and fast delivery.thanks guys brilliant service would definitely recommend and would use you again.
Thanks again
Dave

I bought a tailgate for a Renault Clio in the same colour as my sister's after she reversed hers into a skip.
The idea was to save money on body shop costs by finding an undamaged one in the same colour.
The tailgate which is very heavy was stood up on its left hand side edge on a wooden pallet with just the thinnest most meagre strip of polyurethane foam to sit on.
After the courier dropped it off and I unpacked it I discovered the corner was very badly bent.
Because there was a delay between me receiving it and unpacking I had no way of getting my money back.
My point is this, having been in the motor trade 35 years, sending heavy body panels via courier with woefully inadequate protective packaging is a waste of their time, the courier's time and the customer's time and I am now left with 2 useless Clio tailgates instead of one.

This was the first time that I have used Trent & I suppose at sometime I would use them again. I would like to thank Matt for his help in getting what I wanted. Thanks Trent car recycling. 🚗

Quick delivery/ know those stuff and we’ll packaged works perfectly and fair price

SHOCKING SERVICE
DROVE 60 MILES TO COLLECT DOOR ATFER SPEAKING TO CHRIS ON THE PHONE, HE ASKED IF I WANTED DELIVERY BUT I SAID NO ILL PICK IT UP SO HE KNEW I WAS HEADING OVER, ARRIVED AN HOUR OR SO LATER AROUND 10.30 AM TO BE TOLD THE DOOR WONT BE HERE UNTILL 3PM BY SOME OBNOXIOUS YOUNG PERSON IN THE OFFICE, SO I CALLED THE UNHELPFUL SALES PERSON CHRIS) BACK TO ASK ABOUT THIS WHO WAS ALSO RUDE AND REALLY DID NOT CARE THAT I WASTED DIESEL AND A MORNING OF MY TIME, I ASKED FOR A REFUND AND TOLD THEM TO STICK THE DOOR. ABOSOLUTE JOKERS IF THEY WORKED FOR ME THEY WOULD ALL BE SACKED, PROB NOT THE FIRST SALE THESE CLOWNS HAVE COST THERE COMPANY.
Gone are the days of turn up pay ya money and take your parts, complete rubbish.

Chris took my details for an invoice but I never got one as I assumed this would have been given on collection, I asked about a better price for cash on collection and he said no cash, he also asked if I wanted delivery and I said no I’ll come and collect it assuming pay with card on arrival, to save me time going home first to get a card I got a friend to pay for while I was driving down, again no mention about 3pm collection, I was clearly led to believe I was coming over to buy a door and pay when I got there. Then when I was fold about the problem I called the office back and I think they expected me to just stand around in the cold untill 3pm when I arrived around 10.30 in the morning.

I ordered an engine with Trent’s for a Ford Fiesta and the payment went very smoothly.
I was told that they would have the engine arriving on the Monday. The engine did not arrive on the day that was promised.
I decided to wait to see if it will turn up and of course it didn’t. I called on Thursday to ask about the delivery and Trent’s said the engine that they were going to originally send was faulty.
Which is absolutely ridiculous to me why they would not communicate that to me and the only way I would of found out is me calling them.
Whilst on the phone I was told that they have a new engine for me (That has 10k extra miles than the original bought) and that it will arrive the next day to my garage.
I checked with my garage at the end of the day and it’s still not there.
Horrendous customer service and I was not even offered a discount on the engine that had 10k extra miles.
They will receive a call from me tomorrow asking where it is again.

SCAM, LIARS AND FALSE ADVERTISING. STAY AWAY

Do not trust any description they give on cars. Bought a car that stated starts and drives but when arrived it didn’t start and could not be driven either. They stated at the time of their testing it did start and drove, which would be physically impossible unless the car was rolled down a hill. The extent of the engine damage to this car it would never been able to drive even for a meter. Refusing to take the car back, I understand now why they want you to transfer the money instead of paying with a debit card so you cant claim the money back from your bank!

STAY AWAY, i have been buying cars from auctions for a number of years and this has to be the worse.

Update: Have already spoken to your customer service team who told me its on me. Even though the car is physically impossible to start and drive with a snapped timing chain and a battery leaking acid. This is your fake attempt on trying to resolve issue to show readers you care when in fact you dont. Person I spoke to exact words were ‘tough luck’.

Absolute shocking, I rang up asking about an engine on a car I wanted to buy I was told the engine was fine and there was no issues, so I went on to purchase the car however upon arrival it turns out there was a whopping hole in the sump and the stupid incompetent yard lads have ran it to temperature with absolutely no oil in it this killing the crankshaft and block !!!!! I’m now faced with a dead engine and a 3k bill if I want to repair it I was offered to return the car which meant I would be near £600 out of pocket, there attitude well wasn’t interested it seemed so thanks Charles Trent just what I wanted left with a car that is going to end up in the crusher after spending 3k purchasing it. And as they also said you could see in the picture fluid on the floor, that could have been anything from coolant to power steering fluid when your told the engine is fine you expect it to be fine.

BEWARE WHEN BUYING FROM CHARLES TRENT YOU WILL LITERALLY GET A SCRAP CAR NOT A REPAIRABLE ONE

Ordered a part online at 1915 Sunday evening. Part arrived Tuesday morning via DPD. Part fitted and working by Wednesday. Perfect service and great price including delivery to Isle of Wight. Will definitely use them again

Called to check if a part was suitable for my vehicle. The staff (Matt) were really helpful & friendly and easy to deal with. I will keep in mind for when I am next looking for spare parts.

I had four new tyres fitted three months ago by CT. One of my tyres over a period of weeks has been going down slowly but surely.
Turns out it was the seal that was leaking and not a puncture.
And they then had the audacity to charge me for the problem they caused!!
Not impressed as CT used to be good value for money but obviously not now.
Shame really.

Within the last month my neice brought a replacement engine for her Ford Focus Ecoboost as the reviews for this company looked good and the "Our engine and gearbox replacements are tested and trusted, coming with a free warranty for peace of mind". This did give a peace of mind as she would be spending just over £1700.

The engine was shipped direct to her garage and installed but the engine was defective and not working, the garage took it out and she contacted Charles Trent who said they would collect it and give a replacement, this took just under two weeks to be collected and shipped back out. She spoke to someone at the Rugby branch who said all the engines were tested before coming out but then why did this one not work.

She has had the second engine installed and she has asked for Charles Trent to contribute to the cost of having the second engine installed as this is no fault of hers that the engine had to be changed, she has had to pay twice to have an engine installed that should have worked the first time as its Charles Trents policy to have them "Our engine and gearbox replacements are tested and trusted, coming with a free warranty for peace of mind".

She has spend many calls to the Rugby branch and frankly she has been given the run a round with the staff saying the manager is in a meeting and will call back but no calls back until she explained that she will look at taking it further, then she got a call back.

Today she have been told that she won't get any help with the cost to have the second engine installed and told it must of been something that her garage did, if that's the case, then why did they send a second engine?

I would advise anyone looking to get an engine or any other parts to not buy them from this company as they do not care about you after you have paid and send sub standard parts.

Came to collect my van, told couldn’t remove vehicle because needed a smaller loader accessible issue. Driver moaning not helpful. Ok reschedule couple days later. Same size transporter arrived driver loaded van no problem. Then get payment issue, long short after phone calls bank numbers still haven’t been payed,

What a fantastic company bought gearbox on Wednesday morning was told it will come on Friday
It came the next day Thursday afternoon
That was quick
Thanks very much

Quick, Easy & Convenient. Found Charles Trent via MotorWise, not only did they offer the best money for our "scrap" car, but they called the next morning, collected the morning after.

From finding them, to having them quickly call and arrange a day for collection, to the cheerful truck driver arriving, it was all really smooth, easy and relaxed. Can't find a single fault, payment was exactly when expected too, for the original quoted price! 100% recommend. Would use their services again.

Really disappointed with service.
I rang and paid £130 for a wheel last week, the gentleman recorded our call and I reiterated the importance of the wheel arriving before I drive to wales on Friday first thing. He went away and came back and assured me that the tyre would be fitted over the weekend and that it would be ready for DPD pick up first thing Monday so he was pretty certain I would get it by Tuesday.

Having had experience of DPD I was surprised when I wasn’t e mailed, so I rang at 0912 this morning the gentleman told me after some research on my postcode ****** that the tyre was taken by DPD on Saturday and he would get in contact with them and call me straight back. At 1133 I had not had a call back so rang again and was told by another male that it had been escalated to sales and they would ring me as soon as they spoke to DPD. I never received that call and at 1741 I despair of the quality of the service I have received. I had specifically said delivery on weds and thurs would be a problem as I was out all day, I did not want my neighbour, an elderly man recently undergone radical cancer surgery and cannot lift heavy weights.

As DPD has now apparently had my wheel for three days, four by the time you read this. If the wheel cannot be delivered by the end of Thursday, please refund the full amount of £130 plus any compensation you feel commensurate with the failings.

Update. I received a reply from Charles Trent saying it woukd arrive Wednesday and recognising the total failure of their customer service.

The next e mail I got was asking me for customer service feedback, it won’t come as a surprise when it wasn’t overly positive.
For a company that markets cheap wheels, I explained I wanted the cheapest possible wheel simply as a spare, some on their site were £40+ mine was £130, circumstances necessitated the order rather than more research.
The company recognised their abysmal failures but obviously offered no ex gratia no fault recognition of that

Very poor service. Front desk are not helpful paid for a part and went to collect to find part not ready. Told to come back in half hour to then be told there is no contact with the other unit they have where the part was kept.. manager not helpful at all

Excellent customer service from Matt... Easy and problem free purchase
Thank you
