the poxy (sure that word is ok eh Mods? 
) bank has messed up a SIMPLE money transfer.
Something that can be done in an instant has now gone from 3 working days to yet ANOTHER 3 working days.
DONT THEY REALISE THAT I NEEEED MY ZX10 NOW NOW NOOOOOW
I’m guessing abbey? 
OMG how did you know…
Thats no mistake, the longer they take - the longer they earn interest on your money!
their excuse is that they tried to contact me for security checks.
but i did it in the branch and saw the girl press her button…
the longer it takes the slower and clunkier and less appealing my Gixer becomes…strange eh? it was my pride and joy only a week ago :crazy:
Jeez:doze:
How frustrating is that for you when you have a new bike waiting for you:crazy:
Wouldn’t they let you have cash instead? Does that mean you don’t get the 10 for the weekend?
mine has been a good morning got into depot at 3.30am left yard at 4am, 40 drops round london done llast drop 8.30 back at yardx by 9.10 home by 10am
…the dealer has already bought a brake lever and exhaust to spruce up my Gixer i’m part exing.
The ZX10 is valetted and serviced waiting for me, the bank reckons the money will be in the dealer’s account this afternoon/tomorrow am at the latest.
sounds too smooth.
How about i need to get my gixer to East Grinstead to the showroom BUT my tax and insurance ran out on the 29th Feb…ggggrrrrrrr…
good luck, banks are ****
i keep all my money in a smarties tube 
:D:D:D:D:D
FINALLY after 2 weeks i have taken possesion of my ZX10R
The sun came out especially for me and considering i’m new to 1000’s the ride today getting accustomed to the beast was sooooo much fun.
Will definitely be on the Lads ride out in April so will finally get to meet some of you then, if not before
We used to be with the Abbey, but they missed sold us a morgage which we took them to court and won. They were taking money out of are account and saying it was life insurance which we already had with someone else and also £1000 was taken out of are account over a few months by someone frauding are card and they didn`t want to pay us back, so another court summons was served and then they payed up.
They are a bunch of b@stards and i would never use them or say to anyone else to use them.
well i have taken my measly savings out of the abbey after this debacle.
doubt if the absence of my funds will bring them to their knees but it made me feel better.
Enjoy the new bike!
Where in East Grinstead did you buy it and what were they like to deal with? (Just looking for good local dealers to me).
‘the motorcycle centre’ in blindley heath.
they were excellent really must admit.
Over 150 bikes on show, no problem to test ride them and although my gixer that i part ex’d was in a bit of a state they gave me over the book price.
i’ll definitely go back there.
Nice one. I know roughly where they are, just past a petrol garage on the right as you head from London.
Thanks for the recommendation and, really do enjoy that bike!
Oh the stories I could tell you about Abbey… Both the bank and the group…
pleasure.
Abbey never were the sharpest knife in the box, but since they have been taken over by the Spanish BBS they are rapidly heading down the tubes.
Had a BBS account in Spain once. What a f***ing nightmare.
Glad it worked out in the end. Enjoy the new bike.
Oh, and be carefull of Abbey out there.
Oldguy.
Gratz on the new bike, have fun
Got yours dirty yet Rik???
