We got a refund for our clocked car but the cheque for our old car has bounced - what do we do?
We recently bought a car from a dealer only to find it had been clocked. The dealer issued a refund although we are still waiting to receive the tax money back. We also sold him our dead car for £350 and the cheque has just bounced. What can we do?
