Asked pay final balance on a car the day before collection??
Discussion
Sorry PH's I have a question about something that's bothering me!
I've bought many cars for myself over the last few decades. I always pay the deposit asked when signing the paperwork and when I go to collect the car I pay the final balance using my debit card.
When I paid my deposit last week i later received an email from the dealer with the details of the car Im buying and their bank details to transfer the balance the day before I collect. I said I have never had to do this before and they said their debit card machine will only accept a maximum of £1000.00.
Is this now normal practice? Is it questionable? Or am I overthinking this? The balance is only a couple of Thousand or so.
I would appreciate PH opinion as I'm supposed to do this tomorrow
