Josh is the man!
Josh was incredibly attentive and made me feel like a priority and not just another sale.
The whole team that I met whilst in purchasing couldn't have been nicer and made what was a bit of a nervous experience a very enjoyable one

Extortionate Cost For New Brake Discs
Originally bought my car from Wilson & Co in Scunthorpe which has now been rebranded to Drayton Motors. I had a service plan which covered my annual service + MOT.
However I was informed that I urgently required new brake discs to pass the MOT which cost £399.32
In hindsight I should have had the discs fitted elsewhere at a considerably cheaper price. No complaint regarding the quality of work but I am now regretting that I agreed to the outrageous cost.
Total ripoff and having obtained a dozen quotes from elsewhere all at least £100 cheaper, I shall not be using their service department again. In conclusion I strongly recommend that others look elsewhere for much cheaper quotes.

Reply from Wilson & Co
Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear you feel disappointed with the cost of the brake disc replacement.
We always aim to be transparent with our pricing and ensure all work is carried out using quality parts by trained technicians, with quotes agreed in advance before any work is completed. I do appreciate that there are often cheaper alternatives available elsewhere, however our pricing reflects the standards, parts, and level of service we provide.
I’m pleased to hear you were happy with the quality of the work carried out, but I’m sorry that the overall experience has left you feeling this way.
Thank you again for your feedback.

Failed to make Early Settlement Payment
The dealer failed to make a payment in accordance with the early settlement quote. After an initial complaint a refund was agreed on the 13th March, 1 month post this date and despite chaser contact no payment has been forthcoming and Court action appears likely.

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to read your comments and understand your frustration regarding the delay in payment following your early settlement.
This is clearly not the level of service we aim to provide, and I apologise for the lack of resolution to date. I would like to personally review the details of this matter as a priority to ensure it is fully understood and resolved without further delay.
Please contact me directly at the dealership with your details so I can take ownership of this and bring it to a conclusion as quickly as possible.

Thank you for your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear how disappointed you feel following your visit. I completely understand your frustration, particularly when you are trying to get a fault looked at and are then faced with diagnostic booking delays.
Whilst some faults do require diagnostic time to properly establish whether they fall under warranty cover, I do appreciate how this can feel frustrating from your perspective, especially when you are looking for a straightforward resolution.
I’m pleased to hear that Raymond has looked after you well, and I will ensure your comments are shared with him. In the meantime, I would like the opportunity to review your concerns personally and see whether we can assist further.
Please feel free to contact me directly at the dealership so I can look into this for you.

Parts sorted
I spoke to Paul in the parts department at Wilson’s Grimsby. I think his surname is Greenway.
I have been after a part via my Mechanic for approximately six months who kept saying that it was on backorder or not available. Having spoke to Paul he took the time and effort to look in the back and through parts that had been there awhile. He actually found an old one in the back and quoted me the same price for the actuator even though it had vents with it I think because it had been there awhile. I would give him 10 out of 10 for Service and this will encourage me to come directly to Wilson’s in future.

Going the extra mile to find a solution for our customers is exactly the level of service we aim to provide, so it’s fantastic to hear Paul was able to assist and get you sorted. I’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to him — he’ll really appreciate the 10 out of 10!

Poor experience for first time buyer
Recently passed my driving test and was finding the process of finding my first car really overwhelming. I was under the impression that purchasing a car from a Vauxhall approved dealership, was the smartest and most trustworthy option.
I visited this dealership to view a car, discussed finance options/monthly payments and even agreed to go above my original budget. After being chased for my decision about the vehicle, I placed a £600 deposit to secure it. Days later, I was then informed that the car actually required over £4,500 worth of work. Repairs that the dealership has no intention of paying for.
To follow this, I then had to go out of my way to ask what this meant for my finance check. I was told that a hard search had already been processed which has now left a mark on my credit file, with no car to show for it.
I do have to note, the salesperson I was working with has been very apologetic and has done their best to find me alternative vehicles so this is by no means aimed at them.
However, it is completely unacceptable for a dealership to advertise vehicles, allow customers to view them, discuss finance and even take substantial deposits on cars that are apparently not roadworthy or require thousands of pounds in undisclosed repairs.
As a young woman purchasing her first car, I feel this dealership is exactly what everyone warns you to avoid. I will not be using their services again nor would I recommend to anyone else.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m very sorry to hear how disappointing this situation has been for you, particularly when purchasing your first car should be an exciting and positive experience.
Occasionally during the preparation process, vehicles can present issues that are not initially apparent until they go through our workshop inspection. When this happens, we will not release a vehicle that does not meet our standards, which unfortunately can sometimes mean a vehicle cannot proceed as originally planned. While this is done to ensure safety and quality, I completely understand how frustrating this must have been from your perspective.
I’m pleased to hear that the salesperson you were dealing with has been supportive and apologetic, and I appreciate you acknowledging their efforts. However, I would like the opportunity to personally review the situation with you, including the finance application and the handling of the vehicle preparation, to ensure everything has been managed correctly.
If you are open to it, please contact me directly at the Bolton dealership so I can look into this further and see how we can assist you moving forward.

Not impressed at all with Wilson & Co…
Not impressed at all with Wilson & Co Bolton, booked my Ssang Yong in for a diagnostic assessment, which I had to wait 2 weeks for (and which was going to cost £180, just for the diagnosis) then on the morning of the appointment (today) they called to cancel due to sickness. I do not live nearby so have booked the day off work, as they told me the appointment could take up to 4 hours. To add insult to injury the next available appointment they offered me was 19 March - today is 18 Feb!! There is a problem with my car, hence booking the diagnostic in the first place, I can't wait another month when it could break down any time! Useless, going elsewhere, they may be my nearest KGM specialist but they are not specialists in customer service.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m genuinely sorry for the experience you’ve had.
We completely understand how frustrating it is to wait for an appointment, take time off work, and then have it cancelled at short notice. Unfortunately, we are short‑staffed today due to unexpected sickness and absence, and we are not able to safely carry out diagnostic work without the correct technicians on site. I appreciate that this doesn’t make the situation any easier for you, especially given the distance you travel.
The next available date offered was based on current diary capacity, but we recognise that your vehicle has an active fault and waiting that long isn’t ideal. If you would like, we can look again at the diary or check for cancellations.
We never want a customer to feel let down, and I’m sorry that on this occasion we haven’t met your expectations.

Telling lies about status of work and terrible customer service
If I could give zero start I would! My car has been with them for 5 days now after failing MOT. I approved the work same day (Wednesday), was told that the parts will arrive the next day and that I will get my car either on Thursday or Friday. By Friday afternoon i had not heard anything and when i called I was told it would now be on Saturday or Monday! I still waited until Monday and called after lunchtime and was told that they are busy and have not even gotten my car into the workshop, and that the earliest I will get the car is on Wednesday! I kept asking for an explanation as to why my car hasn't gone into the garage since it was supposed to be done the previous week like they said, but the guy kept repeating the same thing over and over like a bot "the earliest you can get it is on Wednesday" but hanging up on me! Terrible customer service and taking their customers for granted. No courtesy car, telling lies about the status of your car and doing so rudely! This is just the beginning...I'm going to do all within my powers to get them to pay for the damages they have cost me.

I’m very sorry to read about your experience and the frustration this situation has caused you. I fully understand how upsetting it is when timelines change, particularly after you were given an initial expectation for completion.
Delays can occasionally occur due to workshop capacity, unforeseen issues, or parts supply, however this does not excuse poor communication or the way you describe being spoken to. That is not the level of customer service we expect to provide.
I would like the opportunity to review your case personally, including the communication you received and the scheduling of the repair, so we can understand exactly what has happened.
Please contact me directly at Jack.eastwood@wilsonandco.com

Brilliant service!
I always use the same sales person Raggi, we have a laugh and have a lot of respect for each other. He jokes with my hubby about the football and he knows what we look for in a car and we trust his judgement. He is very knowledgeable and always goes out of his way to find exactly what we want. The rest of the team at Wilson & co Scunthorpe are very friendly and helpful. I wouldnt want to go anywhere else. Great service guys!
