We do some work for a big "local car manufacturer" and received an email Authorised Purchase Order this morning for an estimate we need to do on some of their equipment.
All the details on it were correct but the value on it was for £11,221,495.76 plus VAT.
This was a little more than the £212.94 it should have been !
It makes you wonder if they would have noticed eleven million pounds leaving their bank account if we had popped a quick invoice in to them ;)
I can’t repeat what the guy in purchasing said when we told him we were all having a long Christmas break and going out to buy new cars this afternoon ;D
Turns out that they put the purchase order number in the quantity column :)
One can dream....
