After a week of chasing payment from this company it appears i have possibly been paid. I got a phone call tonight from [name removed] to give me a receipt number for the outstanding amount due to my finance company. It was only after their director received a phone call from the brilliant lady at the office of fair trading today that anything seems to have shifted. I had just followed her advice and paid the fee to ASICS to get the address of this company to lodge a letter of intent for legal proceedings against them.
I still wont believe th...

Stay away from WBAC. They will offer you half the online quote and then don't pay! Look around at the reviews from other people. It seems no one gets their money. I have lodged a complaint with Fair Trading. I have been waiting 5 weeks with no phone calls or emails returned. Very shonky operators.

They don't pay up!

My boyfriend sold his car to this "company" two weeks ago. On the day we sold it (after we sold it) I decided to do some research because the experience left me feeling unsure. It made me unsure beause when they were "calling car dealerships"staff were instead standing by chatting to each other. They didnt check the car out properly and only gave us a decent price when we indicated that we knew how much the car is worth. So on that day I read all of these reviews and became very disheartened. The hardest part had been waiting the 10 working day...

Stay away from these guys!

They are a very dodgy bunch. I got paid late. It is only because I made at least 20 calls and pestered anyone and everyone that I even got through to someone who was prepared to do the right thing and pay up. Be warned. Their game seems to be to take your car, wait until they have sold it and then decide to pay you in their own time. Do not believe a word of the 10 day payment garbage they will spout at you. It is very unlikely that they will pay you on time. We’ve been in contact with A Current Affair who told us...

On the 15th June 2012 I took my car to sprindwood branch of we buy any cars.

I signed a contract that day and was told the money would be put into my account within 10 working days on the condition that I left my car with them that day. After 11 working days I emailed the Springwood branch chasing my money only to be advised it had all been handed to accounts of the 15th and the money would be processed in the following few days.

I waited again until it had been 15 working days and called the accounts department myself. During this call ...

Apart from the lousy price offered after bring offered a lot more to get me there. You do not get paid. Obviously they try to sell the car before paying for it. Part of Karland and Highway Group. Duds. Stay away, there are better ways, try large specialist consignment dealer.

Rang around to some wreckers about my 1990 VN Commodore automatic, wasnt going to get much more than $200 for it, and we buy any car rockdale was closer than any wreckers, so took it to them.
The online valuation was around $850, I was only hoping to get around $350 anyway, so i went there knowing I wouldn't get much.
Paint was gone, engine was in great nick, had 5 months rego, only surface rust present, ceiling trim was drooping etc etc..
The sales guy said he'd give me $150, but I noticed there was a $50 fee, so I said if you give me $150 ...

I just bought a new car as of 2 weeks ago and had to get rid of my old one. I wasn't expecting much as it is a 1994 model with plenty of K's on it. The Wreckers offered me $350 for it, which I was happy to take. But to make sure I contacted webuyanycar and they quoted me $1500. I thought this was a bit excessive because I would of been happy with anything between $300-$500. So today I drove it an hour to the dealership. I had an appointment for 2pm and din't get seen till 2:50pm. My first impressions when walking in were. "Wow they just look li...

It's been 4 weeks and keep getting told the pay was processed yesterday and should be in there but no money in my account. After numerous phone calls to these scavengers I've been trying to contact the manager for 4 days and the same excuse about "being in the city for a meeting". I threatened with the police to come and get my car and told them to call me back in an hour to tell me to tell me my car is there and not even 10 mins later get a call back saying my car will be returned from Melbourne on the truck in 2 days at the Blacktown office a...

Decided to sell my car using We Buy any Car, thought it would be a good way to do it, not having to stuff around with potential buyers, Road Worthy Certificates and what not. Got the online quote of $6300 and thought that's not too bad and was prepared to drop $2000 from that. They offered be $2100 what a joke, staff were a pushy bunch of tools. I drove 4 hours for them to tell me that my car was only worth $2100 and then when I said that I will keep the car and drive it 4 hours home they got really angry and even more pushy. I would like to wo...

I got an online quote from 'we but any car' of $9000. I drove all the way to altona (with baby in toe) and had to wait 30 mins after my appointment. The quote I got was $4500!!!! Half of what I was quoted! I was also made out to be a 'fool' for my high expectations of value - I know how cars are valued and recently the car was fixed for hail damage, the repairs costs at least $6500 and the ins company didn't class that as a 'right off' - the car is definetly worth more than the measly amount 'we buy any car' offered me. Had they advised me that they offer the 'wholesale value' of the car OR they had given me the wholesale quote I would not have bothered making the 2 hr round trip!! Very disappointed!!

Well wish I read this site before went there is just a lot of hassles dealing with this company anything but stress free after my 10 days I just had a feeling wasn't going to be paid so made a visit to the branch a demanded some answers and got some story and some phone numbers so rang them gave my details and said they would ring back which they didn't kept ringing they all gave me the run around so went back to dealer and he gave me another number which he also said the money will be in the next day which didn't hapPen eventually the lady ran...

Like many of the comments left here I totally agree. Had organised with the salesman Josh Grant, to have my car finance paid out by X date...this was a verbal contract....otherwise I would cop another lease payment. Guess what paymnet has not come through ! Spoke to Josh - sales / Skye Acoounts and was told the Customer Service Manager would ring me to discuss and they would pay me back any costs i had incured ! Get it in writing.....No one has called me back - 6 calls over two weeks - promises promises...

I am going down there personally to make my case - get something in writing and warn other potential We Buy Any Car victims to stay away !

Everything! Office did not even have a working light.

Sold my car to the dealer in Altona, been 4 weeks still haven't received the funds.
No one ever returns calls. I am in the process of arguing continually as I want my vehicle back.
Do not use them!! Also totally unhappy with the amount I sold my car for.

I filled out the online quote for my 2007 Mazda 6 and got $12'600. Whilst the amount was low I was desperate to sell so made an appointment expecting to get thereabouts this amount. On arrival they ask what you want for the car then proceed to call around to used car yards seeing what offers come in. Anyone knows car yards will offer 30% less so they can make a profit. If I knew that I wouldn't of bothered. Don't be fooled into thinking this is anything more than your local car yard because it is not!

Service was poor. I only received $100 for a car that was evaluated for $933 on their website. there was no negotiation possible not even a $50 increase and i was only allowed to get what they offered!!! waste of time, never go with them you never win!!! I would never recommend them ever! Plus there is a $50 administration fee per sale that isn't told until after the 'deal' has been made! Please don't sell you car to them!

Bad service!

Read a big advertising spiel in carsguide about these jokers saying they could better trade in prices. Anyway, was offered $23000 trade in for my car and thought, why not give it a go? Got an online valuation of $21500 or so plus 10% for booking in a valuation within 7 days. Rang to see why the valuation was lower than what I was offered and was told the computer can't see the condition of the car or the extras on it, bring it in and we'll look at it. Took it in and was immediately brought back to earth with the dodgy backyard setup complete wi...

Absolute waste of time.

I got an online valuation for my vehicle for $12500 based on national averages of my make and model of car, but was informed the final value of my car is based on the 'quality' of my car (fair enough). A lady called me later that day and suggested I take it in to get it looked at, which I was quite reluctant to at first but she assured me I won't regret it.

After waiting 45 minutes for the disorganised salesman at the Strathfield branch, they said my car was quite 'common' and could buy one for $8000 instead. My of...

I have had my VE SS Commodore for sale on Carsales for over a month and got pretty tired of 'tyre kickers' and scammers claiming they are oil rigs wanting PayPal accounts, so I thought give webuyanycar.com.au a go and see what sought of money they can offer. I found the staff very professional and didn’t waste my time with the usual car sales tactics. Unfortunately they we unable to get to the price I was hoping for but I certainly have a better understanding of what my car is really worth in the market. If my car isn’t sold in the private market in the very near future I will definitely revisiting webuyanycar.com.au
Informative, good customer service, professional
Didn't match the price I was hoping for

The reviews seem to be extremely accurate. The online quote was twice what they offered when I took the car to them. Finally agreed to a price obviously a lot less than I was expecting. Gave them my bank details, waited a couple of weeks to get paid and have now been chasing them for a month. In that time they have returned my calls once.

Web site quote is fiction, Wonder if they pay anyone
