Very efficient
Initial booking was very straight forward and efficient and collection driver was punctual and helpful. The repairs were completed extremely quickly so much so there was no communication to advise that they had been authorised and an expected completion date so there was some confusion with arranging the return of my vehicle, however it all got resolved.

'Fix Eventually Months Later, Auto Braintree'
Part 1 - 6th June 2025
Nineteen (19) days ago on, 18th May 2025, having reported to my Fully Comp, 'Plus Extras (seperately paid for)', car insurer, AGEAS, that a third party had driven into the side of my car, AGEAS, in turn contacted FIX AUTO UK, BRAINTREE, to carry out all the necessary repair work and to provide me with a courtesy car, as per my policy requirements.
FIX AUTO UK, BRAINTREE, then sent me a couple of emails asking me to provide the following six (6) items of information. But, have made no attempt whatsoever, to actually send someone to my address to inspect my car, themselves.
I feel extremely annoyed/angry that at this time, after 19 days plus, FIX AUTO UK, BRAINTREE, have made no effort to collect my car for repair and that they are asking me for a copy of my driving licence, when my insurer has this information.
1.The registration plate.
2.The VIN/Chassis number.
3.A picture of the dashboard including the mileage.
4.Images of the damaged area.
5.Image of the front and back of vehicle.
6.Photo of your driving licence.
Part 2 - 6th June 2025
A few hours after leaving this review, I received a phone call from Fix Auto Braintree, who then asked if, I could drive my car to them from Colchester? A round trip of over 30 miles from my home, for Fix Auto Braintree, to inspect the damage to my car!
The answer was a resounding, "NO". They will be asking me to repair my own car next!
Amazingly, (see how leaving Negative Feedback, on Trustpilot, can set the wheels in motion?) it was then arranged for someone to call upon me, that afternoon; two men, to inspect my car, whilst delivering/taking another car to/from someone else.
So why did Fix Auto Braintree, not arrange this in the very first instance???
Having then left with the information, photo's, mileage etcetera, they needed, returned to Fix Auto Braintree.
I then, later that day received a phone call from their office, to discuss the collection of my car and delivery on the courtesy car.
Unbelieveably, I have now been told that Fix Auto Braintree, do not have a courtesy car available until, 26th June, another 20 days!!!
That, has now been booked in.
May I suggest, Fix Auto Braintree, change their name to, Fix Eventually Months Later, Auto Braintree?

Hello Jerry Brocking,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're genuinely sorry to hear that it did not meet your expectations.
I’ve reviewed the situation and can see that we made several attempts to contact you over the past two weeks, both by phone and email. We understand how frustrating it can be when communication doesn’t align.
Please note that we offer a variety of services, including mobile estimating. In many cases, customers find it more efficient to send images, which helps speed up the process of getting vehicles booked in for repair. However, we completely understand that this approach isn’t suitable for everyone.
Thank you again for your feedback. We appreciate it and wish you all the best in the future.
Kind Regards,
Fix Auto Braintree
Well done! A great deal of kudos to you

Great all round service provided!
My car was collected on time and a good quality courtesy car was provided with 3/4 of a tank of petrol. My car was then fixed up and returned to me in just over a week - the repair looks brilliant and the car was cleaned up beautifully too. The easy process definitely reduced the initial stress of damaging my car!
