Windscreen replacement

Communication was very good all the way through and they checked with me a couple of times to make sure I got exactly the right windscreen. On the day of my booking it was raining heavily and I don't have a carport or garage, so they called to ask if I could take my vehicle to their workshop which was less than a mile from my house. So grateful the option was available rather than delay the work. Everyone was helpful and kept me informed. There was a comfortable waiting area with free WiFi so I was still able to get my work done. Would not hesitate to use again.

Very unpleasant experience with them where I sent my wife for a windscreen replacement and she didn't feel welcomed at all.
At the day of the service I received notification on the link saying zero outstanding balance and after the installation by 1 week they called to ask for a payment of 110£, where I just replaced my other car with same windscreen just for 60£ fees.

The best out of an unfortunate situation

The technician arrived with a broken windscreen, meaning that the car was not driveable for another day & was messing up with my plans. But, the technician was well mannered, helpful and tried to make the best out of an unfortunate situation. Customer service was good.
