<p>[QUOTE="Rideandrepair, post: 12383748, member: 168603"]Not much you can do. You’re at their mercy. Aside from politely stressing the need to get the Truck back. No one likes to beg. I have no problem communicating the fact that funds are limited, bills are due, and my livleyhood is at risk. It’s the truth. No sense pretending it isn’t. If they’re decent, they’ll try their best to help. If not you may be in for trouble when the final invoice is due. If it’s unfair, protest. No rule against negotiating. I have and others I know have successfully gotten excessive charges lowered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
