Mark from Click Mechanic is one of the worst mechanics I have had the misfortune of ever having dealt with. He was recommended via the click mechanic web sie and it has proven to be one f the worst mistakes I have ever made. He is not professional,he has taken a considerable amount of money for a service not delivered. He lies and gives bogus excuses and quite frankly I would strongly suggest all users of this site should stay away from him. He still holding onto my ECU despite being paid to repair it since the 17th of October and does not return my calls to his two mobiles!

Keep away at all costs! His mobiles end in ***779 and ***270

Reply from Mark:

Hello thank you for the review I am sorry you feel this way your car would not start you told me you had changed the crank sensor so I did a diagnostic on the vehicle which said there was no signal from the timing mark on the fly wheel I asked if you had tried to start the vehicle while it was running which you said no I ok so I don’t know how a metal coating on the tooth if the fly wheel can come off but there’s a first for ever think I also said if you take out the crank sensor which you had changed I would check it you did not ring e to ask me to come back which I would of done free of charge when I asked you if you had taken it out you replied yes and it was a faulty earth strap which is odd as the engine was turning over and not the normal if you have no earth strap also your crank sensor is a standard Hall effort which works off a magnetic ac current and would work with no earth strap I can only go by what I see and the signs are and we’re leading to timing .

Mark was friendly and kept in touch with me while working on my car. Unfortunately, the issue with my vehicle was a head scratcher and as such wasn't fixed. I can't blame Mark for this, however, considering that I had three other mechanics I know put their heads together (one being an official Toyota mechanic of 15 years) and come up blank.

Reply from Mark:

I’m sorry I couldn’t fix your car but like I said I couldn’t find fault with it the only thing I could thing if was that it may of been a hole in the diaphragm of th brake booster which was the only part you jab not replaced again sorry if you felt let down

Had just moved to a new area with no family or friends nearby so struggled to find a recommended mechanic. Booked mark through clickmechanic, he was originally meant to come Wednesday morning but came by Tuesday evening instead to get me going as quick as possible. Sorted my problem and was very friendly, helpful and reassuring and explained everything very clearly to someone without the faintest idea about how a car runs. Also told me to call him if I ever get stuck again - much appreciated, thank you mark!

Arrived on time. Worked on two cars over a fifty minute period. Completed all tasks 100%. Knew exactly what he was doing. Spot on. Looked at his other reviews and in my opinion a negative review he received for not being able to complete a job on a Lexus was totally unfair. Instead of complaining the person should have praised him for taking the decision that he did. There are some things that just cannot be done unlesss in a workshop and in mechanics it's a process of elimination that has to be followed that sometimes, unfortunately reaches that conclusion. I reccomend this mechanic without hesitation.

Thank you very much for your review means a lot coming from a man who restores vintage motor bikes hope full one day I will be as good as you lol take care mark

Mark was late and ill equipped to do the job safely. He decided after 30 mins that he could not do the work, packed up and left. Not before telling me that no charge would be made and asking me to "sort him out" as he would not be paid by Click Mechanic. Out of the goodness of my heart I gave him £20 for petrol. Next thing, a charge on my credit card for work that was never done and a Customer Service regime that does not do what it says it will and refuses to refund the money until they speak with Mark. A week later I lost patience and disputed the charge with my credit card company.

Could be an isolated incident as the feedback I read was good and prompted me to use the company.
Maybe they delete the negative ones?? Read more

Reply from Mark:

Ok I'm sorry you feel like that ok let's get both side out in open one I did say I would be late so you had the choice to cancel two the reason I could not get the job done was like I told you the base bolt would not turn it was twisting in its mount we tryed long bars impact gun plus heat nothing would move them so I did say to you if we snap them with the size of the bolt I would not be able to tap and die it so the best corse of action would be to go to a work shop which you said thank you for being honest and agreed now as far as the money I do this for a living not for fun I was there for a hour also I traveled over 20 miles to you I asked you for a hours labour to be honest which you said I will give you 20 pounds which is a insult to me but I excepted it as it covers my fuel now I did that as I would have to cancel the booking knowing I could not do the job and so in turn don't get paid as you card is not charge pls believe me when I tell you I did not and can not charge your card full stop I have noting to do with booking ir money and as far as my reviews well u have put up a bad one about me so can every one else but there isn't is there ps did you forget to mention they thecar is 15 years plus and these were the original parts i was trying to remove any way hope you got it done thanks mark oh and one more thing I have over 5000 pounds worth of kit in my van so pls don't make out I had no tools
Take care mark jones .
