Advantages: Nationwide

Disadvantages: Poor customer services, High prices and Inaccurate information

I had a negative experience with Kwik-Fit in Doncaster. I went to the garage in search of an MOT, and despite there being no customer's in the shop (the staff clearly knew I was waiting as they actually walked right past me at various points) now I'm not totally unreasonable, I can appreciate they might have had other things to do?? But I was completely ignored for the period I was waiting - at least 15 minutes. I felt very much out of place there and got frustrated with the employees total disregard for me, so I left. After having spoken to a few friends (women and men), I have discovered similar experiences in terms of their service, such as over charging for simple items such as bulbs, battery's, oils and other fluids. Obviously, this is not an isolated incident within Doncaster as I've asked my friends who are scattered about the country. I also did a few price comparisons with kwick fit and a few other similar garages (Halfords, Charlie browns and apple) and found that for servicing, batteries and brake pads kwik fit was the most expensive. However this is not to say everything was more expensive at kwik fit but I think personally that adds a little weight to what I'm saying? I'm sure some people have had some good experiences with them but not me personally in Doncaster. Overall, I would not recommend Kwik-Fit to anybody due to very shoddy customer service, exorbitant prices & blatant dishonesty.

Summary: Get your act together Kwik Fit

I think service varies a lot between branches. I have used ones in Newcastle and Bristol and they were great, very helpful and polite to me.

a) Poor customer service - apart from one example, not much substance is apparent
b) Exorbitant prices - would be better if examples were given, maybe with a comparison to similar items available at other outlets, don't think info based on talking to a friend is particularly sound or helpful in a review
c) Blatant dishonesty - absolutely no basis for this statement based on information provided by your review

Sorry for the low rate but this isn't really a review and you base far too much of it on other people's experiences rather than your own. I appreciate you had a bad time but given your personal experience of the company seems to be limited to 15 minutes, this isn't a useful review.
