I noticed this recently when I was going to check up on the 5 I bought in January.  Not too impressed.  Sends out the wrong message about how they view customer service.
Now: BMW 523i SE '00, 318i SE - e91 '07, 325i Coupe '93.

Prev:
e46 328i SE Touring, 330Ci, 318Ci.
e39 523i SE.
e36 325i Coupe *2, 323i SE, 316iSE.
e30 325iSE 2dr, 320i Conv, 320i 2dr, 316i.

The normal customer services number still is. However for details of dealer visits and exact car specs i.e. the stuff that a potenial buyer might want to know, you have to phone a different number.

I guess they must get a lot of potential buyers calling them all the time. This will certainly put quite a few off!

Calling BMW over here is still charged as a local call. I guess its only time before that changes!

I saw a BMW advertised yesterday that looked good so rang the seller who informed me that the sevice history had been lost . He was currently in the process of getting BMW to produce a replica for him based on their records.

However rather than take his word for it I thought i'd ring BMW customer services and get details of dealer visits etc.

However the number you have to call now is a £1 a minute and when I rang yesterday it took about 45 seconds before I finaly got the "ring back Monday to Friday message". So that was £1 for nothing. Most of this was made up of a dead air on the line. Why I wonder

I so much want another BMW but I seem to be getting a lot of signs not to bother...
