Excellent from start to finish....

From start to finish dealing with Head office and the branch in Stoke, where Leanne, Mary & Ryan couldn't do enough for me, sorted out my breaks, two stone chips on the windscreen and brake light, as well as a comfortable area to do my work on my laptop where I was offered coffee, rock and a can of coke.

Listening to the various conversations from the staff in reception, the team in Stoke seem to genuinely care about customer service and their staff.

HI Ricky, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review!

We're really pleased to hear that your experience—from Head Office right through to the team in our Stoke branch—was such a positive one.

Leanne, Mary, and Ryan will be delighted to hear your kind words. It means a lot to us that you noticed not just the work we carried out for you, but also the effort we put into making sure you're comfortable and well looked after while you're with us.

Creating a welcoming, customer-first environment is something we genuinely care about, so your comments about the team’s attitude and conversations at reception really put a smile on our faces.

Thanks again for your support—we hope to see you again (though hopefully not too soon for more stone chips!)

Take care,
Imogen

Still brilliant!

Since leaving a review in Feb 2024, the service we've had from Northgate - and the Stoke team in particular - has persuaded us to move 50+ vans over to them. They also fleet manage the remaining owned fleet and company cars for us. The whole team at Stoke are fantastic, from Jade & Leanne on the hire desk to Mary and her team in the workshop. Exceptional, every time.

I booked my vehicle in for a Saturday appointment with Mary. She made this simple. When I arrived at Stoke I was greeted by Leanne who was pleasant and friendly. I always book my van in at Stoke because of the service and staff.

Northgate Stoke are superb

Northgate Stoke are superb. I had a cambelt failure in my van, RAC recovered the van to Northgate, after hours. The lad that opened up for me, and sorted out a loan vehicle was so helpful, and I left with a loan vehicle (albeit a van that was bigger than the front of my house). I asked if there was any chance of a smaller vehicle, and within a few days Mary kindly sorted another van, which is better suited to my job. All in all, faultless customer service.. Thanks again guys

Professional and stress free

I hired a vehicle from Northgate in Stoke last week and I can highly recommend them. Not only was the service impeccable from Leanne but also Dave who handed the vehicle over. The vehicle was immaculate and suited all of my requirements and nothing was too much trouble for the branch. They made the process stress free and simple. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.
