I have had to remove the post due to mentioning the company.
Payment methods were agreeded that we can pay via Credit Card. The work started and once finished we were asked to pay via bank transfer. They wanted the money in a company account which was being striked off companies house. This of course rang alarm bells and told them we would only pay by credit card, which they refused.
We then asked to cancel the contract which we are entitled to because they are breaking there terms of payments agreeded.
Since this has happened i have been told this sort of scam is used alot around London.

Terms were never given at the start of the contract. We were emailed the quote with payment methods they accepted. The only time the terms were given was when we sent them a pre action letter. Only when we sign these terms will they take our credit card payment. In there terms they have basicly stated they will not be liable if the engine fails to work. This in turns voids any warranty they issues and the service of goods act.
