Poor communication

When booking, i left a note to say i needed the car for the school run. There were no listed restrictions for home visits or anything like that. Get a phone call from the fitter at 8.30am saying he would be there in 20 minutes. Explained we needed the car for school runs and that we had put a note on. Fitter started complaining that it had ruined his day as the rest of the work was out of the way. I understand the frustration on his part, but also, not my fault. He then came at 9.30 after some back and forth and told us that he couldn’t do it because it was raining and he couldn’t pull his van in front of the car. I was at work, my partner had an important meeting with the school and so the fitter left. Back on to head office as seems to happen every time we have to use national windscreens and some more back and forth and failure to acknowledge any lack of information online and i finally got through to the manager. Explained we booked that day because it was literally that or the next day we had to get it done and literally no other time. The manager at the branch was an absolute gem and squeezed it in the next day, still meant i had to lose time at work to ferry people around but better than being rained off at home again! Lack of any communication between planners and fitters and failure to read notes on online bookings is a consistent problem with this company. However, this time, they actually rectified the issues. Can’t be said for previous times we’ve used them but that’s another matter. Big shout of to the scotswood branch manager though, for coming to the rescue.

We appreciate you sharing your experience and are sorry to hear about the initial difficulties with your booking. We acknowledge the frustration caused by the miscommunication regarding your school run needs and the subsequent delay due to weather. It is concerning to learn about the consistent issues with communication between our planners and fitters, and the failure to acknowledge notes on online bookings. We are, however, pleased that the branch manager was able to resolve the situation promptly. We are committed to improving our internal communication processes to prevent similar incidents in the future.
