Simple straightforward disposal of my old car which was beyond economic repair. The price was as good as any I was offered anywhere else, but collection was free of cost, quick and courteous.
Very fast and efficient service. Came to collect my car and I didn’t even have to be in. I just left the documents and keys in a safe place. Would highly recommend and would use again also gave a good price.
Great and excellent service. No ifs and buts. The driver of the car take back company was on time. He was friendly and helpful and courteous. It was a smooth take back. I will definitely recommend my friends of the company. Please carry on with the excellent service.
The system worked very well indeed. The tech side was simple to use and the company who picked the car up were friendly. They, due to sickness, were slow picking up the car but hey, that can happen to anyone. No complaints. Payment came through speedily.
Great service and seems to give the best price. Good friendly drivers who come out to lift the car. Always arrive on the day they say and are never late, usually early if anything, would recommend to anybody
Very easy to arrange, full details of steps from arranging date, paperwork and payment etc provided - payment was in my bank within two hours of collection.
It was handled competently, phone staff were pleasant and kind. The man who came to collect was really lovely, in a quite difficult job. No problems when I needed to change the date for hospital appointment. Money was paid quickly. A good experience. Thank you all.
Brilliant service. Good price paid for the car and collected from home address quickly and without any fuss. Money was transferred into my bank the same day. Can't ask for anything more.
Everything was easy to manage from start to finish. I got more than I expected for the car plus extra for the alloys. Swift professional service and money was deposited the same day. Office staff and person collecting were friendly, polite & professional.
