Excellent Service
The whole process using Car Keys Solutions has been amazing! The initial enquiry response was almost immediate (8pm at night) and was dealt with so efficiently, it was a breath of fresh air.
The actual key replacement was professional, quick and super efficient.
Can't recommend them enough, such a good service at a reasonable price.

Excellent fitter, poor scheduling
When I contacted them, I got a booking the same day, in the afternoon. Then I got a call to say it would be the next day. The next morning, I got a call to say my slot would be later and then another, later still and then another to say it wound be 18.45, after dark.
When he arrived the fitter was brilliant. He had the right replacement remote with him and cut a key to suit my warn ignition lock. He was skilful and knowledgeable.First class.

My mother was having issues with her auto key and sometimes couldn't turn the engine off when out shopping. Nissan no longer manufacture the key, so after checking and finding your company, they came to my Mum's house and repaired the key barrel and gave new keys. My Mum is very happy and so am I. Thank you!

Firstly
Firstly, my enquiry was for a replacement of a “ blade” key with no buttons , on the day it was made I received a call from the guy saying that the cost was £150 ( which was the price we agreed when I booked it) and an additional £200 for what I do not know? I said it is not what we agreed and he said he would speak to the management , I said yes you do that.
If you want good reviews then do not try to rip people off

Reply from Car Keys Solutions
Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and we’re sorry for any confusion regarding the pricing.
To clarify, the agreed cost for the blade key replacement/key repair was £150, as discussed during booking. The £200 mentioned was not an additional fee, but the price of a completely new key in the event that the original key was found to be beyond repair.
We value your feedback as it helps us improve our communication and ensure all pricing details are fully clear upfront. Please be assured that we have no intention of misleading or overcharging our customers.
Thank you again for bringing it to our attention.

Kate was extremely helpful and explained the Ghost installation process very clearly, which gave me the confidence to go ahead with the installation. I had previously tried another company, but they were unable to install it on my car and told me it wasn’t compatible for HONDA HRV 2022. I contacted a few other places and received the same response. However, Stefan took on the challenge and successfully completed the installation. Stefan is a real asset to your company. His work is excellent, highly professional, and it’s clear he truly knows his job. He did an exceptional job, and I am extremely satisfied. He also took the time to clearly explain how everything works.I would definitely recommend Car Key Solutions to anyone. Absolutely exceptional service — 5 stars!
Thank you, Car Key Solutions.
