Great Service from Car TakeBack

Absolutely excellent service from start to finish. Easy to book and driver kept me informed on the morning of collection. Money paid in promptly. Would highly recommend Car TakeBack

good all round

Pretty straight forward, but. . . for people who find themselves in this dire situation i.e. having their car scrapped, a bit more info and reassurance would be welcomed.

Good stuff

Simple straight forward service. Flexible on pick up day and cash in bank same day. Not rocket science - but this company does exactly what it says - and I am finding that rarer these days. Keep up the good work.

Great vehicle collection

Absolutely great service, so quick and easy to arrange, really friendly and efficient man that collected the vehicle and well on time that was booked.

Great service

Applied the night before explained my circumstances and told them I needed to scrap both my cars asap to get my new car they were both then collected the following day with payment in my bank within 2 hours. Very friendly and just an all around great service.

They do what they say they do

So easy to do, put in reg and checked the details, was quoted a set price ,accepted the offer and they called the next day arranged a pick up. Turned up on time and paid what they quoted via cheque no problems

Definitely recommend this service

Brilliant, got exactly what they said I would. They won't confirm the amount you are getting until you have surrender the car and paperwork first so that is a bit unnerving. But it all worked out in the end.

Satisfied customer

Very fair with their offer and on time with their collection Offer was way higher than other other offers and payment was quickly transferred to my account.M Woods

Great service

Simple, quick and reliable service that lets you compare best rates for scrap. Booked, and sorted hassle free. No issues with payment. Will use again and recommend

Smooth process

All went really smoothly. I completed all details online then received a call within 10 minutes to confirm my answers and to confirm price etc. Car was collected within 2 days and I was paid about an hour after collection. Would recommend.

Car pick up

Easy process booking, but arranged pick up day missed, with no contact. Picked up next day. Few days delay in receiving payment, but eventually sorted.

Unnecessarily worried

Quick and easy. I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be paid or the car wouldn't be reported as scrapped to the DVLA, but I was paid within 24hrs and the vehicle has been scrapped. The guy who came for the car was friendly and helpful.

A nice and easy service.

A nice easy service to use. Get your quote, they collect the car, you get paid. Nice! Driver doing the collecting needs to cheer up a bit, but we've all had those days.
