Excellent Service

Excellent service from start to finish. All customer services staff were helpful, answered all my questions and, gave me confidence in scrapping my old car. I have recommended CarTakeBack to my friends, they have also had the same fabulous service. Thank you all.

Professional and courteous service.

Couldn't fault the service I received. The price paid was above average. The procedure was straightforward and easy to use. Very pleasant and helpful staff.

Very straightforward no messing about

Lots of these sights offer one price online then mess you about haggling afterwards. These guys were very straightforward, no messing around & the money arrived exactly as expected. Was very happy with the customer service

Good service, highly recommended

Offered fair price, more than others did. Good communication. Turned up when they said they would and took away the car. Paid promptly. They filed the paperwork and I got my tax back. What more can you ask for?

Excellent service

The service was excellent The guy that came to collect my car was very nice and professional He sorted out all the paperwork and the money was in my account a few hours later Would definitely recommend this company
