Efficiency and Professionalism

Pros:

  • "Always good service even when it’s busy."
  • "The mechanics were able to identify a serious fault almost immediately."
  • "Re-valved my tyres for free."
  • "Always very clear on what's been done and helpful advice on what may need to be done."
  • "I initially went in to replace a blown brake light, which the skilled team fixed within a matter of minutes and free of charge."
  • "The team at Kwik-Fit where professional and even let me collect just before opening hours due to work commitments. 5 star service."
  • "It was fixed in under fifteen minutes getting me back on the road as a community nurse."

Cons:

  • "Let down by the sting in the tale. £65 for two wheel alignment. Really?!"
  • "Going to claims on this after extremely poor customer service and behavior."
  • "Booked in for 8:30 for front brake pads only to be told on arrival that I had to leave the car with them all day."
  • "They consequently failed the test due to testing equipment failure."
  • "They do not time their work so all cars have to to be dropped off at 8/30 and Kwikfit cannot guarantee return before 5/30."
  • "Sadly I broke down and drove with my deflated tyre from A6 to Kwikfit and still no sympathy I was outside from 756am."
  • "They don't serve anyone after 5pm, although still opened with an army of fitters on site and only 2 cars in 5 bays, there was no time to swap over 2 tyres or balance the front one. Disgraceful service."

Value and Pricing

Pros:

  • "I would totally recommend these guys to anyone and will definitely go to them in the future as I cannot fault the service I've had :) very happy customer!!!"
  • "Our car was professionally assessed and a puncture was swiftly and safely repaired."
  • "They provided a battery test of the old one to show the condition of it too."
  • "I've been driving for over 50 years and have never had a better customer service."
  • "Amazing service. It was a busy day and they gave great attention and respect to all their customers."
  • "I wasn't surprised that all four needed replacing and the wheel alignment needed correcting. I knew the ball park price and was given a fair quote for replacing all four and correcting the wheel alignment."
  • "Thank you very much Kwik Fit Bedford, you are true Gents!!"

Cons:

  • "Well she only came back with two new tyres and a bill for £169.00 instead of a £15 puncture repair."
  • "For some reason my tyres weren't in their delivery but they sorted it out and got some from another store very quickly."
  • "I had to have two tyres replaced and wasn't really bothered with me."
  • "I got the impression that the staff were somewhat nonchalant and dictatorial with me."
  • "I feel as though I have been lied to and taken advantage of and will never be using Kwik fit again."
  • "What Kwik Fit proposed was a £380 bit of work, was done for £25 down the road."
  • "Everything is much too expensive, the benefit is that it’s convenient, but the guys there have a bit of an attitude."
