I would imagine it wont be easy to get MGUK to agree the Tbox swap because in their eyes it is working and not faulty.

Nothing from TE or BG, Smartest Energy who we have moved to for our business energy havent been able to invoice us yet due to delays from the Administrators in getting the data to them. That said, Smartest Energy have been very good so far telling us not worry about bills, they will invoice us...

Apparently all updates were done back in December last year.

We discovered a strange problem with carplay on our last holiday. My iPhone was plugged in and using carplay for google maps. It intermittently stopped working as if carplay had been disabled. We discovered if my wife's iPhone was in close proximity to mine, carplay stopped working even though...

Our 2022 FL MG5 Trophy has done this from day 1. It randomly is not available and it is the car shutting down, even when on charge. The work around for us (MG UK are useless at sorting things like this out) is to use the lock button on the key remotely i.e. in the house, this gives the car a...

Here in Lincolnshire we are also getting the food waste bins imposed upon us. For the last 50 years we have always had waste disposal units installed in our kitchens, all food waste goes down the drains, no smelly bins outside, no attracting rodents etc. Considering the cost of the bins and the...

I’ve just checked back, when I was there last time, 58p kWh so not too bad, they are of course destination chargers not DC rapids. There are plenty of them so plug in when you get there, leave it overnight and you’re good for the next day. Highly recommended one of the river cruises in Oxford...

Yes you do need the app. Brilliant place, nice setup with chargers, the app is nothing to fear and works ok (well it does for me #8o) J

My gut feeling is that Tesla Model 3 will be the weapon of choice. Engineers dont travel far, within 40 miles of our base so range isnt really a problem and its a bit of a reward to my guys. Tesla do put on a good show for sure, I had the pleasure of driving a model Y performance around major UK...

I was looking around September time last year to purchase 4 x MG4 for my IT business engineers. Then all of this kicked off so I'm looking elsewhere, Tesla are certainly chasing the business market even though were only a small business. Ford used to be really goo, they had a dept for business...

Well at long last I have the letter from MG UK confirming my warranty is still valid. Phew, that took some doing, I wont be in any hurry to have another MG after this one, roll on August 2027, it can go back then. Thank you to everyone who offered advice / sympathy etc, it was appreciated but...

Youre probably right and it may well work with MGUK but frankly, I cant be bothered, I wont be losing out because I will simply start legal proceedings against the dealer where my contract is. In the worse case scenario they take the car back and I then purchase my Kia or Tesla depending which...

Me neither, I firmly believe a salesman can sell one car, service and support sell subsequent ones. From what i have seen, MGUK dealer support is awful, why anyone would want to represent MG I dont know. No because essentially my contract is with the dealer and they seemingly have had the rug...

One thing for sure, don't expect anything helpful from MGUK to avoid disappointment. I was very happy with the car, the service contract, the warranty, gap insurance, finance etc and through no fault of my own end up in this dreadful situation.

They have absolutely lost any future custom from me. I haven't made it clear to them yet due to potential legal action from me. And so it goes on.........
