The lady who answered the phone was…

The lady who answered the phone was very informative and had a lovely manner. I found the company very professional. They told me when the courtesy car would arrive and phoned to let me know they were on the way, no hanging about. They rang and told me when they had got my car and kept me well updated and it was done before they said it would be.

Not particularly impressed at all

Just Been told that my vehicle is ready but they cannot replace all of the decals as they are not available. A quick look on the Internet and there are at least 10 websites that will supply exactly the decals they say are unavailable. So they are sending it back not completed as far as I see. Also I have had to pay the excess on the policy before they will allow me to inspect the work. The fact that the repairers is the same group as the insurer does not impress me as from experience the emphasis is usually on reducing costs and cutting corners. I'll certainly be getting other quotes for my next renewal. It's just really disappointing

Under promise and over-deliver

You've heard the expression 'Under-promise and over-deliver' in order to keep your client happy. Since I'd heard other's talk about the delay in getting their car back after an accident, due to supply problems, I was expecting my car to be away for at least a week and a half. When it arrived back after only a week, not only was the outside looking better than it did before the accident, the inside was mint. And the telephone contacts were informative and sympathetic. All in all, made me feel much better about the whole unfortunate experience.

Excellent service. Can't fault

It was great dealing with DLG. Throughout the whole process, they were helpful. The courtesy car was on time. I am impressed with the detailed repair work. They checked the car thoroughly, changed the tyres and removed the dents. Customer service is top-notch.
