I don't get why there's so many bad reviews. I go to the Wakefield one pretty regular and the blokes always sound, I usually get a triple foam wash which is okay. It's same as any automated car wash... See more

The forecourt car man couldn't even bring himself to speak to us. It was all grunts and hand gestures. And he could have warned us to bend our rear view mirrors in, as the car wash always pushes them in and i worry that's not good. I forget to do it, so a reminder would be useful.
And this time the wash wasn't its usual spotless self, but left streaks and water droplet marks all over the car. I had to use the wipers in the car to see clearly through the windscreens and get a cloth to the areas the wipers didn't reach and to the rear view mirrors.
Someone on the far end of the wash checking that you've got what you've paid for would help as this time i think i wasted my money.
UPDATE:
Thanks for the feedback. Usually, service etc here is great. This time, not so much. Hope it's back to normal next time we go in.
