A good company
May 11, 2021

Bought 2 cars in this company, mind you I'm in Canada and these cars were shipped home. The cars are in good shape.If you want a good company to buy a good car, I recommend this one.The only problem that I had was that the second car took long time to get home, but it was only because of covid.

I purchased a vehicle from Sbt japan early this year, the vehicle I orderd was Honda Fit on the website everything looked very fine, When I recieved the vehicle it was a shock to date they have not responded to my demands to refund me part of the money to repair the vehicle.The car I recieved had faded paint and rust on body area, right side mirror malfunctioning, the car was dirty as if was used to carry animals inside, some parts were falling of the engine area, paint was pilling off to date. The photos on website with what I recieved totally different, I reported to my account manager Nadia Hammed she failed to help only sent a form which I filled and sent back its been four months no response I reached her manager called HARIS he did nothing, all I asked was for part refund for me to repair the vehicle. They sent my contact is *******840 WhatsApp.

I have spoken with a Mr Praveen a sales manager at sbt Japan, I have told Mr Praveen that I have not made a decision on purchasing a used vehicle from SBT, he kept on pushing me to make a decision now to purchase a vehicle, Mr Praveen was very unprofessional and very rude, this what SBT Japan is hiring as a sales manager disrespecting customers in this manner, and the vehicles are not in good condition, some have scratches, dents, dirty interior and a rusty under carriage,

Frauds
September 23, 2019

Do not use SBT, especially the account managers Sharia Albina or Mohammed Faiz, they are frauds and have stolen our money with no vehicle being delivered. They also provide fake auction sheets, so buyer beware!

Overcharging and even more than the Sole Agent
November 25, 2019
Previous review

They charged me a used Hiace and 2018 model for more than the brand new Hiace from the Sole Agent is cheaper than their used car? The sole agents should be aware of this in their respective country because this way the Toyota brand will loss it fame and it will be vulnerable to greedy people.

Poor service
July 19, 2019

I have been a customer for SBT since January 2018 and have been made to switch managers 3 times. The first two were ok. Things would be done on time and their service was on point. The same can not be said about my current account manager. Empty promises, lies and neglect are the order of the day. Right now I'm waiting for my documents and I'm told they are on the way but they are not giving me the tracking ID. I repeat "EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE AT SBTJAPAN.COM"

I wired money to SBT for a vehicle on July 15th. The salesman Muhammad Saad, tried to get me to change the vehicle I selected on multiple occasions over several days - I kept my original selection. Last week Tuesday (October 1,2019) I got a call from a local shipping agent informing me that there was an error with my shipment - the car was being sent to the wrong port (going to Freeport, Grand Bahama but should've been shipped to Nassau, Bahamas). I immediately contacted Muhammad Saad who promised everything would be corrected. After trying to reach him many times for several days through phone calls and messages, he responded on Thursday that he had a Broker who would clear the vehicle through Customs in Freeport, Grand Bahama and have the vehicle shipped to Nassau at no additional cost to me. It is now Monday (October 7,2019) and I have not gotten a response back from Saad with this Broker's contact information. So, I don't know the status of my vehicle and can't get a response from these guys, while my vehicle is on the vessel at the port in Freeport.
I'll be contacting my attorney later today and suggest anyone that read this review to stay away from SBT Japan.
