Service was straight forward. Received a call on what would be needed and how much the total was, price wasn’t crazy high but more than the average garage.

Customer service was great from Chris. Clearly outlined exactly what the issues of my car was including cost. Obviously they increase the cost from the garage but in terms of service, can’t complain.... See more

Car was collected on 14th still not delivered back on 15th15st the car was collected it was…

First the car was collected it was serviced, I was asked to pay for extras which I did.
But the car had not been returned/delivered. It is almost impossible to contact the company. The AI bot is useless and just tells you deliveries are 4-6 same day, But of course this is the next day.
Contacting customer services is the same.
You have no contact with the garage so you cant find out what's going on.
I will never use this mob again its a nightmare and no car insight.

Car arrived at about 7:30 (a day late !). Seemed to have done a good job but had no contact with anyone until the driver turned up.
Communication from any angle was awful. If anything goes wrong you cant contact anybody. For this reason I stand by my review.

Fantastic efficient service

I can't recommend Dean and his team highly enough. They recently carried out a much-needed service and MOT on my car, along with all of the work highlighted in the MOT advisories. Everything was completed quickly, professionally, and to a very high standard.

The price was fair and honest, and they supplied all the necessary parts without any hassle. It's refreshing to find a local garage that you can genuinely trust to provide excellent workmanship and great customer service.

Thanks again to Dean and the team – I'll definitely be returning and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable local mechanic.

Great, but beware upselling.

Car picked up, serviced, MOT and returned on time.

Good price.

Had to endure attempt at upselling again but worth going through that for the price.

If you can drop your car dont use servicing stop

The garage were brilliant however, your pricing and aggressive upsell is seriously inflated. I checked with other garages and your costs are double and some even triple. As a disabled person my car is my lifeline and i guarantee that a lot of your customers will be very confused by the waffle from sales and end up paying far more than they can afford. Some of your disabled customers will go without to get their car back and this is where they are held to ransom.

AVOID SERVICING STOP!! Awful (aggressive) customer service and expensive garages being used!!

My son had his car picked up and delivered to an MOT station for MOT and service (which he had already paid for in advance). He then received a call later in the day to say his car had failed the MOT, and would need his front brake pads replacing on the warning light reset, at a cost of over £600!!! This was then I took over. I called the call center and was told that the cost of the pads and the warning light reset would only leave £137 to pay, so I asked that he send me a revised quote. We then got one back but was still showing over £500 as a qoute so I again contacting them, and was told the adviser I was talking to previously would call me back. After waiting another ten-fifteen minutes I call back, to say this person had now gone home and I should call back in the morning. I explained that we wanted the car back with a full MOT but disputed the cost, only to be told that I should take that up with the garage concerned. They then said there was nothing else they could do the adviser (Dean), actually put the phone down on me stating he could not deal with this anymore!! I then contacted them back and asked to speak to some one else more senior, and that was denied. I asked for their complaints procedure also but that was denied as well. All I was asking for was a final invoice, which I eventually received after about two hours of being on the phone (at one point they told me to just go and collect the car myself!!). I paid the outstanding balance (£210+VAT for front brake pads on a 2018 VX Corsa and £79+VAT for a warning light reset!!) and when I checked the DVLA site about half an hour later, my sons car was showing as passed!!
Don't use these people!!. Go to a garage you can trust and who have reputable feedback
It is now Friday 17th July and despite the comment from Servicing Stop to contact them via email ( which I already did on 14th July), I have had no response back from them to date. My final opinion of this company is that if you just have a car pick up service with mot only, they can be useful. However if additional work is required they seriously inflate the price the garage charge and get very rude and aggressive to you if you query the cost or refuse to have the work carried out.

RUN AWAY FROM THIS GARAGE AGENT

I fell for their low price on service and MOT and booked. The car was picked up by another garage, confirming serving stop is just an agent or middleman for garages. After a few hours, serving stop called me that the rear suspension is faulty and made it fail the MOT. They wanted £1100 to fix. I asked that my car be serviced and leave MOT be left out. The servicing stop, the SS agent got aggressive and said I would need to pick up my car from the garage myself. I went to the garage, and I was told to pay an extra £40 following instructions from SS for a synthetic oil. The garage then explained that SS is an agent getting jobs for them, and they follow their instructions. They confirm the suspension cost is £350 without SS input. I took my car somewhere else for an MOT the same day and it passed without any advisories, which means SS tried a fast one on me. I would have been £1100 out of pocket to a wicked agent. The second MOT guys confirmed that my car was not serviced by SS, and I had to pay £200 to service the car after the MOT. PLEASE RUN FAR AWAY FROM SERVICING STOP.
