Customer wants to back out of the deal.
I have a customer who placed his order last August. 😕
He wanted a full colour print on the back of his camper van, full coverage.
Also some stripes down the sides and on the cab of which I quoted him
£500. Half up front of which he paid without hesitation.
I produced 5 designs for him for his camper of which he chose 1.
At this time I told him some of the bodywork needed repairing in order to do the work of which he agreed and told me it would be done in a few weeks.
The repair work was started but was still unfinished come December. Now I will say I didn’t print anything until I knew I could arrange a definite date for fitting as I didn’t want the prints getting damaged with being put to one side for so long…space was small so this seemed in my opinion the best option.
Come January he rang to tell me he’d sold the van and had another he wanted graphics on but not the one I’d already designed. So, biting my lip I said fine,
I’ll get that over to you. The new van already had graphics on of which he said he would remove. This van is still carrying the old graphics and the customer is now stating he wants to source an alternative quote.I’ve advised him that’s fine. Pointed out that his deposit is non-refundable and this is stated on his receipt when he paid his deposit.
Now just waiting for his response.
All communication is on email so all his requests are in writing. I do this on every job.I believe I am covered legally and that I have not held the job up in any way.
Am I correct in my assumptions, and would you do the same.
Karl.
