7. "Guagua Car Wash" employees are in trouble with refunds from users who have lost their wages
The APP is unavailable, the store is closed, and the branch is cancelled... Recently, the online car washing company called "Guagua Car Wash" which was launched at the time of its launch has caused a large number of users to be in a refund dilemma due to the broken capital chain and operational difficulties.
A reporter visited yesterday and found that the Beijing General Company and parent company of Guagua Car Wash have been empty, and most of the more than 20 branches across the country are cancelled. The industrial and commercial department said that "Guagua Car Wash" is already applying for bankruptcy, and it has no compulsory force to require "Guagua Car Wash" to implement a mandatory refund. All it can be done is to put "Guagua Car Wash" on the blacklist. The lawyer said that if "Guagua Car Wash" goes bankrupt, it is unable to bear the liability for breach of contract. If consumers want to protect their rights and interests, they can file a lawsuit in the court collectively. (Source: Beijing News)
