Stayed open to resolve
Low Fell, Gateshead national tyres. Everyone was so helpful, I got a piece of metal in my tyre at the time they were closing, they stayed open and resolved this for me with a tyre change in around 20 minutes. Really appreciated the help as a 26 year old woman who doesn’t know a thing about cars!

Waiting time
I was very impressed with my on line experience.
However it all changed at the service centre. My appointment was for 10.30 ! I had to wait 50 mins before my car was actually STARTED!
I Ieft the premises after 12.00.
Staff were pleasant but there was no sense of urgency!!!
Will not be revisiting. There are many tyre companies I cam try.
