Excellent service

Excellent service from start to finish. I dropped my car off at 9:15am and it was ready in less than two hours. They kept me updated with a clear video showing the work carried out, which was a great touch and gave me confidence in the service. Friendly, efficient and professional throughout. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and will definitely use them again

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it must have been to have your appointment cancelled.

When your booking was made, we sent a booking confirmation email to the garage on 11/07/2026. In addition to these notifications, every garage listed on our platform has access to their own garage portal, where they can view and manage all bookings made through BookMyGarage.

We're concerned to hear that this booking was not handled as expected and will be contacting the garage directly to discuss what happened. We will also remind them of the importance of regularly reviewing and managing their bookings to help prevent situations like this from occurring again.

While BookMyGarage provides the platform to connect customers with local garages and facilitate bookings, we appreciate that experiences such as this can be disappointing, and we're sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Your feedback helps us work with our garage partners to improve the booking experience for all customers.

Kind regards,

I wouldn't recommend this company for any garages

I wouldn't recommend this company. In my experience, they don't own or operate any garages themselves. Instead, they act as a middleman between customers and independent garages.

From what I've seen, garages pay a monthly subscription fee of around £70, plus approximately £24 for each job they receive through the platform. Those costs have to be covered somehow, and it's hard not to feel that customers ultimately end up paying for them.

The company doesn't actually repair your car—the work is carried out entirely by independent local garages. Their role is simply to connect customers with those garages while taking a fee for each booking.

Many people praise the service, but I don't see what value it adds. If you're happy to contact a local garage directly, you may be able to avoid the middleman altogether. In my opinion, this business is more about generating commission than providing a genuine repair service.

They even threatened to see me in court when I tried to get out of the contract

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience has left you with a negative impression of BookMyGarage.

To clarify, BookMyGarage has never advertised itself as owning or operating garages. We are a comparison and booking platform that connects customers with garages in their local area. Each garage manages its own dedicated portal, where they control their pricing, availability, lead times, and listing information. This information is displayed alongside customer reviews to help motorists make an informed decision about which garage best suits their needs.

Customers do not pay BookMyGarage when making a booking. All work is carried out by the chosen garage, and payment is made directly to the garage on the day. Our aim is to provide motorists with a convenient way to compare local garages, prices, services, and customer reviews all in one place, making it easier to find the right option for their needs.

Many customers find value in being able to book online at any time of day, particularly outside of normal business hours when garages may be closed. In turn, this also benefits garages by increasing their visibility and allowing them to receive bookings when they may otherwise miss out on enquiries.

We appreciate that comparison services may not suit everyone's preferences, and some customers may prefer to contact garages directly. However, our goal is simply to make the process of finding and booking with a local garage as straightforward and transparent as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your experience with BookMyGarage, we would encourage you to contact our team on 0330 124 3299. We'd be happy to discuss the matter further and assist in any way we can.

Kind regards,
BookMyGarage
