“No communication on how the process was going, I had to continue to contact you or the dealer for information, could have been better!”

Thank you for your feedback Brian. There are still delays with some funders due to the backlog from the Covid-19 crisis and this is having an impact on turnaround times. However, you shouldn't feel like you're not being kept updated and we are sorry about this. We hope you're now enjoying your new car. With regards, Evolution Extra.

“I was extremely disappointed with the releasing of the funds, which meant a delay in picking up my car. Buying a car was meant to be a fun, relaxed experience. This meant we waited at the car garage for funds to be released for over 3 hours, having to return the next day after swapping over insurance from my previous car this even meant that I couldn’t return home in my part exchanged car. Other than that, my broker did what he could to assist me at times and other than the above was a great help.”

Hi Eden, thank you for taking the time to review and we're sorry to hear that things did not go as smoothly as you would expect. Unfortunately there are still some delays in the lender payout process due to backlog caused by the Covid-19 crisis. This isn't ideal and we do agree that it should be a fun experience buying a car. We're pleased that you got it sorted in the end and we hope you're now enjoying your new car. With regards, Evolution Extra.

“The customer service is terrible and being lied to is just unacceptable! They Blamed the dealer for their mistakes and then lied about it, I caught them out, when I spoke with the finance company. Daniel Cliffe would wait over 12 hours to inform of something only after I called to speak to him 4 times. I would not recommend Evolution to anyone! A complaint is being sent to the Financial conduct authority.”

“Don’t get me wrong, the personnel on the phone are very amicable and great people skills - but the chances of getting your car finance sorted are slower than a tortoise. Yes, I understand we are in the middle of a global pandemic, but in the day and age when you submit everything online to ‘speed’ the process up, a second class stamp is faster. I am currently 12 days in and still no idea what’s going on - wishing I’d bought a cheap banger to see me through!”

Hi anonymous I sincerely apologise for your dissatisfaction and hope you will understand the following. Many of the funders we deal with in this sector of the market are currently being extremely stringent in their checks for affordability at this current time. Many consumers are still on furlough and potentially many people may still get made redundant in the coming weeks and months. To that end the funder that had approved your application are wanting to verify all customers income and expenditure prior to allowing a finance agreement to be signed. This demand for bank statements to be verified has created a significant backlog, (at its peak 3 weeks) for the funder to approve and allow the customer to proceed to signing a finance agreement. I apologise on behalf of the funder, and no doubt hope the element of work we ourselves conducted was up to scratch and professional. Kindest regards Evolution Extra
