it was a waste of money i know what was wrong .he had no tools with him as far as a could see just turned the key a few times and told me to have the ignition barrel changed i regret using your webside

Reply from Marc:

I am sorry to hear you review but hope this response will put paid to soe of your issues

Firstly i take your point of having no tools with me , the rear of my vehicle carries an extensive toolkit enabling to carry out the majority of tasks i am employed to do,

secondly with regards to turning the keys a few times i think you aware that i tried both sets of keys repeatedly for a length of time

thirdly i feel that if you knew what the problem was why would you engage someone to carry out a diagnosis in the first place

in summary i find that your review is both unfair and not a fair account of myself .
you paid for .9 of an hour for the problem to be diagnosed and you gave me the impression that you expected the problem to fixed there and then. i offered to do the repair but when i said the cost would be quite high because i would have to obtain parts from main dealer you declined i then offered to let you know of a local auto locksmith who would be cheaper and you accepted i then furnished you with their details. if you had a problem with the service it would have been more productive to mention it during the visit and on this occasion i feel i provided the service that you both paid for and asked for Read more
