Thumbs up for cartakeback

Gave me a fair immediate quote. Phoned me the next day to book a collection and the collection happened when I was told. The money was in my bank account by the next working day.

I would highly recommend

An efficient, friendly service. They gave me over £100 more than a 'tatter' had offered me and the money was in my account a couple of hours after the vehicle had been collected. The guy whom collected it was friendly and informative.

Efficient, friendly service. All sorted in a jiffy

Really efficient service. Friendly call to get everything organised. Pickup was prompt and the payment and paperwork came through quickly. Would recommend to anyone

Very pleased

Very efficient and friendly service. Collection man was very cooperative and patient even though we had to keep a medical appointment on the same day as collection.

Excellent.

Excellent Service. Turned up to collect as stated and transfer was extremely easy. Paid straight into my bank within a couple of hours. Would recommend.

Great, was exactly what they qouted.

Very fast Very Professional, no tyre kicking or going back on their valuation. Was great! and paintless and money went into my account 2 hours after the pickup. thanks
