Well I had a fairly sh*te day!

I have been trying to get hold of my Sales Executive at the dealer for the last week with no joy, so I rang into the main switchboard and asked if they could transfer me over to him only to be told that he no longer worked for the dealership!!!!

To say I was pi**ed off was an understatement! I had no contact from the dealer to let me know he wasn't working for them anymore and there was no out of office on his VW email account, it hadn't even been deactivated!

I asked them to informed me who would be taking over his role with my order and I was told they would call me back, I had to ring in three times today and each time they told me they would call me back, guess what, I never received that call!

I'm going to call them again in the morning and see if they finally give me some answers, if not I'm driving straight down there to have a massive go about their p*ss poor excuse for customer service!

Rant over  :whistle:

That's pretty poor.Same thing with the salesman who sold me my car leaving a few weeks after.At least the salesman who took over the sale e mailed me to tell me he'd left, and that i would be dealing with him.How odd.I'm confirmed BW38 too. :smiley:

Finally got through to the dealer this morning and have been told my build week has been moved to 39 but it is still unconfirmed  :sad:

Since placing my order I've never been so aware of what week of the year it is!

I asked vw via twitter how many golfs Wolfsburg produce a week and they said they didn't have that information :(

My weekly asking on twitter has given me a positive result this week, I'm now confirmed for build week 39. There's no update on the tracker but they have said this should change at some point next week.

My build weeks have gone 42, 45, 39, 46 and now 39. I would love to know the reasoning about the variance but I'm happy that it's ahead of schedule, fingers crossed it should be about 3 months from order to delivery  :smiley:

Great news.  My build weeks were similar yo-yo ones too, going 28-29-48-29-35-4-37.  Mad!  But that's all over and done with now thank God.  Don't think I'll ever forget that number sequence though.  Enough to drive a person insane!  3 months is pretty good going for a Golf.
