"Terminated contract for no reason"

Same issue as most of the other elmodrive customers are facing, i got the same message today 06th November without an alternative provided. Is there an issue with elmodrive similar to Onto...

The vehicle you have on subscription is approaching the maximum age that we allow for vehicles at elmo, therefore we will be removing this vehicle from our fleet. In accordance with this, we will need to conclude your subscription and arrange for the return of the vehicle before 6th December. Per the subscription agreement, we are obliged to provide no less than 30 days notice to terminate a subscription, and this collection date represents the period for which you have paid for subscription services, if you organize a collection date for after this, you will be charged on a per-day basis. We understand that this is an inconvenience and we will waive your collection fee.

"Truly Outraged!"

Truly Outraged!

Having been with Elmo for 18 months, I would regard myself as being a very loyal customer.

Then this happens!

Email comes through saying:

"Please be aware that we need to arrange the collection of your subscription vehicle. We regularly assess elmo’s fleet in line with a number of factors including the age and mileage of the vehicle. Unfortunately, we will be removing your vehicle from our fleet.”

Have to hand back my vehicle by 23rd November with NO ALTERNATIVE.

What kind of business are you guys running where you yank the vehicle off existing loyal customers and then provide ZERO alternatives.

Outrageous!

"Was fab service u til this week- now I will avoid all car subscriptions"

Had I written this review a few months ago I would have raved about Elmo, in fact I have recommended this company to many of my friends. however, a year after my subscription I have received notification of those collection- 1 day after my latest DD.
Leaving me 30 days to find a new vehicle.
They have not offered an alternative subscription claiming they are over subscribed - yet they continue to recruit new clients on their site.

AVOID

"Avoid this company"

As per other reviewers below I have just had the same email from them saying the car needs to go back with no replacement.
Don’t use this company as they will leave you high and dry.

"Terminate Contracts For No Reason"

2 Months into a 12 month contract this email came through, they would have known the Mileage and Age of the vehicle before providing a contract on the vehicle very bad practice and the company needs avoiding at all costs, judging by the last two reviews it seems other customers are experiencing the same issue

"Don't be fooled. Waste of time in EV"

Well only been with this company a few months very disappointing to say the least. They terminate your subscription without actually calling you to explain. If they valued their customers they would have the professionalism to phone. Every excuse yet they want to take payments quickly. They don't give you any options. My advice is do not subscribe to this as you will be left without an alternative solution.
Their card for EV charge is pointless you have to sign up to several other providers which is a hassle. Its not worth the stress or risk getting into an EV car subscription. The extra charges occurred shows its not the best way forward.

"My experience with ELMO has been…"

My experience with ELMO has been nothing short of a nightmare. Their customer service is abysmal, and they seem unwilling to assist their customers. The attitude of their staff, especially Jade and Jessica, is beyond appalling. I've never encountered such unprofessional behaviour from representatives of any company.

I was met with indifference and a complete lack of interest in my concerns. When I encountered issues with my subscription, it was a Herculean task to get any help or support. Jade and Jessica, in particular, displayed a level of rudeness and uncooperativeness that is simply unacceptable in a customer service role.

ELMO has completely disregarded its customers, and I would strongly advise against dealing with them. Their lack of professionalism and disrespectful treatment of customers is inexcusable.

"Avoid"

This is my 2nd review of this company. My previous one looks like it has been deleted, which was in Oct 2022 regarding delivery being cancelled on the day.

I have had my car for the past year, and unfortunately due to having several unpaid invoices, could not pay the monthly fee. I contacted Elmo to inform them and that I would be looking to arrange funds as soon as I could. This email was sent to them on the 23rd.

On the 24th, i then received an email stating they would be reclaiming the car in 2 days. This surprised me as I considered they were happy to wait, especially as I am a long term customer.

I phoned the company, explained. The customer service advisor said he would go away and ask. Low and behold stated they will be collecting the car.

After looking at companies house, they are in quite a deficit, and probably be looking to liquidate

"Do not bother getting a car from this…"

Do not bother getting a car from this company they will leave you high and dry when they want. They have just recently recalled the car I have been in since June 23 and have nothing to replace it with, even though they know i look after a disabled person and the car is very much needed. They gave me 30days to look for another car!! Terrible service!!
