My car was taken for an insured repair of a tiny scratch which was barely even visible. The car has now been returned with a much bigger scratch at a different place. When told that this scratch wasn't there, they said it was and photos will be sent which I have yet to receive.

Dreadful service, never called to update when I was going to get the car back. The lady I spoke with was annoyed because the collection team said I was going to be told when the car was ready, and she'll inform the department head to stop them from providing the basic customer service i.e telling customers to expect to hear from them. I wanted to complain to the management, but after reading same complaint from other customers, I won't waste my time.

Awful service! My car was taken for repairs 14 days after my accident (after my continued chasing). It then took them 8 weeks to return my car after moving the date 6 times! After getting my car back, I have now realised that the door that they were suppose to fix, was in fact not fixed and now does not lock! My handbag with several personal items inside has been stolen out of my car! I am now having to complete a police report and try and replace things like bank cards, drivers license etc. On top of this, it sounds like my bumper is going to fall off! Cheap material clearly!
Honestly I would
