Totally unprofessional and holding a customers money will not give back do not deal with this shambles of a car sales company totally unprofessional I was asked to put a £99 holding fee down. For a car I was going to look at in the Bolton branch I was assured the money would be given right back either way if I decided to go ahead with taking the car out on finance or if I decided not to go ahead I paid the fee over the phone on my credit card spent over an hour speaking to a lady who works there discussing the price of the car how much monthly payments would be everything that is discussed for finance of a car I arranged to come in on the Saturday with my partner to take a proper look at the car and make my mind up if we was going to go ahead with the finance we traveled from Clitheroe to Bolton this lady assured me all the information and everything we had discussed would be passed onto her colleague and the monthly payment which she had given me so we would not have to go through it all again we got there no one knew anything about it ended up speaking to some lad who worked there who tried to say the payments would be dearer then stated from the lady this right away put both of us off going any further very unprofessional from the start I said I would think about it the lad said I would get a phone call Monday to sort everything out and sorry about the mix up we went away still undecided we did like the look of the car and thought if the price we was originally stated stated the same we would go ahead with the finance no phone call Monday I had to phone the dealership which I wasn’t happy about it just felt like they wasn’t interested long story cut short we went elsewhere took a new car out on finance had everything done and dusted in the space of the day so I contacted chapel house spoke to the lady who originally dealt with me and took the payment over the phone told her we wasn’t going ahead with the car I wasn’t happy with the way everything was dealt with an I wanted the money putting back onto my card she said it would be put back on nearly two week later still no refund put back onto my card I contacted the dealership to ask why was this so the lad decided to tell me the reason why is because the money was paid through my credit card and they can not put it back onto the credit card well if that was the case why did they not phone me tell me this and ask for another card to pay the money back onto like I told him so I gave him my bank card details and asked how long will it take for the money to go back he said around 5/7 days I waited no money on card again I phoned spoke to the sane lad said I am still waiting for the money to go back he said he had passed the details onto the department that deals with the refund and would contact them to find out why I was still waiting and would contact me back no contact back from him I waited another week and phoned again asked for him who’s name is Josh but got told he’s busy I asked for a manager he was busy but I was promised a phone call back no phone call I phoned again to be told the same this has been going on now for around5/6 weeks I constantly contacted this dealership asking why they are keeping a customers money that does not belong to them and it shouts out desperation from them to hold £99 because they never got a sale time after time I have phoned this dealership asked for the manager to contact me back but no one has the decency to give me a phone call all I get everytime I phone and ask for a manager to come to the phone is either he is not in the building or he is busy I have now contacted the main Mg contact centre to log a complaint about this sham of a dealership I have told them everything that is happening and asked them to deal with this I am absolutely disgusted that chapel house think it is exceptsble to take money that does not belong to them they are the most unprofessional dealership I have had the misfortune to have any dealings with stay away from them if you don’t want money being took from you and not getting back they are a total joke of a dealership

Enquired on the Jaecoo before being met by a salesman Dan Gargan, couldn’t have been happier with how he treated me and my journey, professional manner with a relaxed not pushy personality, very well looked after and I couldn’t be any more excited to collect my new Marco 7 today, thanks Dan!

I recently bought a car through and the whole experience was brilliant. From the initial consultation, I was given plenty of options and clear information, including all the offers available at the time. The test drive was really informative, and every question I had—big or small—was answered with patience and honesty.
Throughout the sale, and even afterwards, I felt fully supported. Nothing was too much trouble, and the communication was spot on. I’m really pleased with both the car and the service I received.

Can’t recommend these guys enough, we went several times to the show room and asked loads of questions, all the guys there especially Aidan who dealt with us were brilliant, this is our first ever car on pcp so it was a big deal for us and that was recognised and appreciated by them, unusual for car sales as they are normally just after the sale, there was no pressure and that was why we went with them, Aiden was a font of knowledge on the car and answered all the little questions that you have and the deal we got was excellent.
Really professional outfit great service will be going back for our next car to these guys.

Been buying cars from Chapelhouse Southport for years, I have never had any issues it’s so nice to go in and feel welcome the guys always go out their way to help - the manager dan and wes made it so easy for us to decide I went in sometime last year before our holidays they even spent time chatting with us asking how it went I was amazed they hadn’t forgotten - you aren’t just a customer with little details like that it made the experience so much better definitely go and see these guys

Incredibly impressive service by Dan Gargan, the moment my wife and I walked in. I wish if there was a 7 star option.

Had a good experience, Garry Andrews is very friendly and helpful. Came in on his, off day to help us. I would recommend his services to everyone.

Dan gargan couldn't do more for us, we came in and enquired with the help of our daughter Anita, we went through everything including a test drive, which was amazing, and also placed an order, albeit it took longer than we thought, but Dan reassured us and kept us informed, we are thrilled to be picking up our new car today and couldn't recommend chapelhouse southport omoda and Jacob enough,they are brilliant, we will be back soon!
