Extract from Cornish Farm rules -
We want everyone to enjoy their stay at Cornish Farm.
We do not want too many rules and regulations but we do want happy, middle of the road campers enjoying a quiet few days.
Extremes of any behaviour or practice will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
In short, if you think it is OK that your dogs should be allowed to run around scaring people, barking and making a mess everywhere whilst your children run around screaming and shouting having water fights in the toilets, whilst you sleep off the 3.00am, noisy BBQ you enjoyed the night before with your mates that came up from another campsite and parked in everyone else’s spot… PLEASE DO NOT COME BECAUSE YOU WILL BE SADLY DISAPPOINTED
My wife and I were almost pi$$ing ourselves reading them.

Ed, Just to reiterate what others have said, YES I think a 10% deposit is more than fair... after all this only equates to the very kind MHF discount you offer us, so if they are stupid AND rude enough to let you down then I think you should be reimbursed in some way. I know as a recent customer who had a SB Growler alarm & Battery saver fitted, that it is their loss, as there is NOWHERE better for service / product + 10% discount off a grand+.... a fair saving. Cheers Dave in Sunny Sussex.:thumb:.................
Sorry just had brain wave..... its rare but does function some times....... I'm sure we have a few legal beagles amoungst us.... but in my limited knowledge of teh law...... they have entered into an agreement / contract with you, this would be evidenced by teh fact they accepted your quote for the work to be carried out, in that they made the booking for both teh work & the overnight stay (which is part of teh T&C's of having work conducted at VB) Further more they didnt cancel the agreement (verbally or written) so negating any distance selling legislation if applicable. You had specifically set aside your workshop & staffs time in respect of this order, and as such are at a financial loss. They did NOT give you any opportunity to correct ANY mistakes / errors (if there were any on your side....which by the sounds of it there were ZERO). Your booking system will give you teh necessary evidence along with any emails they/you sent. I would go along with an earlier comment.... write a formal / legal letter stating they are in breach of contract / agreement pointing out the error of their ways & ask for a reasonable restitution to be made to avoid further action.... I agree that it shouldn't have to be like that & that your business is run on a very friendly basis, but business is business, you are not a charity (although I appreciate you help many of us out in our hour of need with our beloved MHs) you need to by fair, yes, BUT ALSO FIRM. Send a message from VB & most of us on here at MHF that this behaviour is simply not acceptable!! - In my previous life, I had to deal with idiots like this every minute of every day.... if you give an inch they will take a mile, if they smell weakness they will try it on, again & again. - Sorry to rant but these people should know that they haven't got away with it.....

I dont think it's fair to not turn up.
[HI]But I for one will never give a deposit and never will to anyone.
[/HI]

Not even if you are buying a house?
There is always the motorhome I guess
I don't see the problem with a deposit of 10%. if you aren't happy with the work the value of goods fitted to the van will exceed that.
Each to their own I know, but a trader is entitled to some protection surely?

I believe it`s a (old school ) principle here.
Customers have asked me if they can leave a certain amount to cover items but i always say no, that`s ok.
I always think that , if they are happy with what`s being done then that is fine.
I don`t leave a deposit with Asda before i go shopping. i pay as i leave.
Maybe it`s just the way the world is getting now, but i bet it won`t bother Ed to change the way of a lifetime-- and the customers that go to him will appreciate him sticking to some old principles.
I may get the odd one mess me about but i won`t be a Hitler on everyone else, i would feel pressurizing them to pay up before anything has been done is not the way.
