A decent service which enabled me to find a great garage to get the job I needed sorting. Booking through the site doesn’t really work so it’s best to just message the garage and confirm that way.

Messages disappeared and complaint not properly addressed

I used WhoCanFixMyCar to obtain quotes and communicate with garages. Following a dispute with one garage, I raised a formal complaint.

My concern is not the garage itself, but how the platform handled the situation:

• Message history related to my complaint is no longer visible in my account, while much older conversations remain accessible
• This message history was the key evidence for my complaint
• My review of the garage was removed for “breach of terms,” but no clear explanation was provided
• My complaint was closed without addressing these concerns, and responses focused on unrelated points

I understand this is a marketplace platform, but removing access to recent communication and not providing transparency around moderation decisions raises serious concerns.

Users should be aware that they may not retain access to important records once a case is closed, and that complaint handling may not fully address the issues raised.

Review:
Used WhoCanFixMyCar to get quotes and raised a complaint about a garage.

Main issues were never properly addressed. Instead:

• Message history related to my case disappeared, while older messages remain
• My review was removed for “breach of terms” with no clear explanation
• Complaint was closed without resolving these concerns

In response to FixMyCar’s reply:
My concern is not about escalation options, but about transparency on your platform — specifically why relevant message history is no longer visible and why my review was removed without clear justification. These points have still not been addressed.

I would recommend keeping your own records and not relying on the platform for complaint resolution.

Hi Ismail, thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear how disappointed you feel.

We reviewed this booking and liaised with both you and the garage extensively, and we shared our outcome with you directly. As a comparison and booking platform, our role is to help facilitate communication between both parties.

Where a resolution cannot be reached, the best next step if you wish to escalate further is to contact an independent body such as Citizens Advice, Trading Standards or The Motor Ombudsman.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Kind regards,
The FixMyCar team

Hello Tom,

We're sorry to hear about your experience.

When booking a job through our site, the available dates should reflect the garage’s availability. Unfortunately, it sounds like there may have been a miscommunication on the garage’s end in this instance.

To help us look into this, please email our customer service team at team@fixmycar.com with more details. We’d be happy to contact the garage and encourage them to improve their booking process to prevent this from happening again.

Kind regards,
The FixMyCar team.

Booked full service through Fix My Car

Booked full service through Fix My Car. Booking was easy. Finding the garage was a bit difficult but the people were excellent and the price was very reasonable. I would happily go back again in future.

DONT USE IT!

DONT USE IT! while it does get you in contact with garages. It also gives your phone number to hundreds of spam callers. Inm guessing they let anyone sign up as a garage, since asking for a quote, I receive 5 spam calls a day from insurance scams to bank scams. Curse you fix my car. You shall rue the day.

Hello Auzzie,

Thank you for raising this concern. We take this feedback very seriously and want to ensure the driver experience on FixMyCar is as pain-free as possible. What you have raised here is not up to our usual standards and we have taken steps to address this immediately.

As of this month, we have identified and removed a number of garages who were found to be misusing Driver phone numbers, against our Terms and Conditions. We have also ensured that all Driver phone numbers are fully hidden until they have accepted a quote from a garage, ensuring only the garage you want to do business with can call you.

Please email us at team@fixmycar.com, and we’ll be happy to close your quote on your behalf to prevent any further calls regarding your booking request.

We regret your experience with FixMyCar wasn't as good as it should have been, but we sincerely thank you for your feedback as it has helped us improve. We hope you'll give us another chance one day.

Kind regards,
The FixMyCar Team.

Hello,

We’re sorry to hear that you’re not satisfied with the recent changes to our platform.

Our updated job fee pricing structure is designed to better support and reward your business growth, with the platform now free to use and with a new Performance Programme that reduces annual job fees based on your performance on the FixMyCar platform.

We’ve removed the phone number reveal feature following feedback from drivers about misuse. However, you can still access contact details directly once you’ve won the job, as we know this contact is important.

The in-platform messaging feature remains available to our Garage Network for contacting drivers directly at any time, and we recommend using this to make initial contact with drivers before they accept your quote.

Kind regards,
The FixMyCar team

Good afternoon Teresa,

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback.

The quotes provided by garages on our platform are estimates and may change following an in-person inspection of your vehicle.

If you believe you received a misleading quote, please email our customer service team at team@fixmycar.com with more details. We will review the situation and contact the garage to encourage more accurate pricing in the future.

Service booked; no comms thereafter

Booked my car in for a service, got forwarded to a garage with an automated response - left message to garage through whocanfixmycar only to be ignored - was given a date for service but no time - had to call garage on day of service to be told "Sorry, this slipped through the net". Had to completely re-plan my weekend.
