I let a TV advertising company use one of my cars, one time for an
advertisment.
I was gullible, they paid me nothing, however, no damage was caused and they
trailered my car back to me, but never responded to my phone calls after the
event.
Foolish, trusting me, I didn't get any paperwork, like I said I was gullible.
I put it down to experience.
Never again, as far as I am concerned, they are all tarred with the same
brush. Crooks, the whole worthless bunch of them.
And I never saw the rotten TV advert, although I got plenty of phone calls
from people that did see it, (aired outside of London only).
Best Regards
