Wrongful MOT fail

MOTd my missus' 6 month old car, failed because there were cords visible on 3/4 tyres, illegal tread depth on the front driver side. Seen old reviews from customers saying they've had second opinions that differ from here, so we chanced a second opinion and got the car passed. Called up about a refund and was told the new mot was illegal saying they would call the owner of the other garage and speak to them. Other garage called them to tell them the fail was out of order and they couldn't say anything in defence.. would avoid at all costs

Filled my aircon and told me no leak. A few days later I can hear hissing and system not working so clearly there is a leak. Total waste of money
