Very annoyed , took a cup of coffee out for him , he said in passing that the previous timing belt installer used some sort of locking glue on some nuts and was a bit stubborn to get off , finished work and left , I then received an invoice almost £100 over the price quoted for extra time undoing nuts … never said anything to me before he left , unacceptable and will NOT use click mechanic again

Hello Mr Negus,
I am very sorry to have read the above review and that you felt the additional time spent rectifying a previous mechanics poor workmanship was unacceptable, had this have been in a garage for the work, they too would have charged additional time for the remedial work.
You are correct, I did not discuss this extra charge with you before I left and I can only apologise for this, we got talking at length at your front door and it totally slipped my mind. Again, I am sorry about this.
I have refunded the additional cost and this should be with you soon.

Having a mechanic come to do an mot is not a good idea , as he had to stay and sort the failure of a tyre ouf that was three hours, all extra labour charges for me. Using a online mechanic for mots is not cost effective.

Hello,
Thank you for leaving a review, however I do feel that the poor rating towards communication is rather unfair.
I did my best to keep you updated along the way with multiple text messages and phone calls. I am sorry if you do still feel that I did not communicate with you well enough and will take this onboard.
I do agree that carrying out an MOT via ClickMechanic is a very poor idea, with their quotes barely covering the MOT fee alone. I have raised this with the team a number of times, sadly I have had no response at all.
I would like to suggest that you consider raising a case in the resolution centre.

Happy with the diagnostic and health check. I’m very confident in the mechanic’s assessment and recommendations and his ability. I have decided to act on his advice and have booked him to carry out the additional repairs.

This was the first time using ClickMechanic and I’m happy that I did. James was very thorough, very clear in his explanations of what he was going to do, what he did and what was detailed in his report. I’d definitely recommend James and would certainly use ClickMechanic again.
I specialise in dealer level diagnostics with the latest diagnostic hardware.
I have a vast knowledge of vehicle electrical systems.
