An Update from GB Vehicle Leasing
We understand this is a difficult and confusing time for all our customers.
We want help support our customers whilst protecting our staff (the majority of whom are working at home) so we have set up a specialist task force – individuals from around the business, many of whom are taking on new tasks and responsibilities – who are providing extra support for customers in need.
For new vehicle enquiries, call us on 0161 667 5338 or email us at sales@gbvehicleleasing.co.uk.
If you're an existing customer, the number is 0161 762 5680 but if you can email us, please do so we can deal with all queries promptly admin@gbvehicleleasing.co.uk.
