Dodgy Dealers

Dodgy Dealers

Dear VFH
Unfortunately too late -  I have  read your article titled Thinking of buying a horse? Read Steven's story and beware! regarding a Dodgy Horse Dealer who traded as Lazy Plods/Bombproof.  I have  just bought a horse from Crack-On (allegedly the same dealer) that was NOT as advertised. 

I have  asked to return the horse and for a refund but was verbally abused on the phone and told "I know my rights, I will  see you in court".

Please make others aware of the potential problems with this dealer, I have got Trading Standards involved but am expecting it to be a lengthy, time consuming and upsetting job.
Name Withheld
