If only I could give zero stars! I unfortunately had to use this company through my insurance. The technician broke the first screen on fitting which meant I had to delay my lease car being collected, costing me nearly £150. Their customer service centre is absolutely appalling. You can’t get through to anyone, you request call backs that never come, an absolute shambles of a company that don’t value their customers at all. I suspect if they weren’t affiliated to insurance companies they wouldn’t have any customer.

I had my back window smashed last Sunday, I was told it would be 10 days for a rear windscreen. Then the operator cancelled my order, it's now 7 days in and I can't rebook, they don't return a call & I've no idea when I'm getting a new windscreen. Police offered me "victim support therapy" I was fine, now I feel I need the therapy after dealing with this company. Incredably stressful and avoid if possible.

Wouldn’t use this company again, waited 5 days for a replacement only to be informed on the morning of the fitting it will be another 7 days before they will attend, disgraceful.

Very disappointing service, didnt follow any covid rules, no mask or sanitation. Then just to make matters worse they needed to drive my car to calibrate the cameras, only to abuse that and accelerate my car hard down a 30mph road which you could hear due to it being X4M. Confronted him, for him to reply, i didn't accelerate that fully! Only to be told my their manager, that they understand what hes probably done, because hes young and gave in to temptation. Personally think this is a disgusting excuse, these are clients cars, not theirs to abuse!! I would avoid if they send you kids out.

Even 1 star is too much! I have been waiting for a replacement windscreen for 4 months now! I have been promised 3 dates,the first I actually got up at 6 to get to my time slot at 9-30,as I was told that if I was late,I would miss my slot! Had a terrible journey in,only to be told that my glass hadn't come in yet! I had an appointment for October 15th,only to be told less than a day before that there was no glass,then told my glass would be in for November 29th! STILL WAITING!!! THE COMPANY IS A JOKE! They just do not care about the customer,obviously they are in with so many insurers,they don't give a damn!!!

Avoid this terrible company if at all possible. I have had to wait 2 weeks for this disaster of a company to pull their finger out and do a small chip in my screen, I can only believe that it is the office/admin staff that have no concept of time. First, I have been forced to use this useless company by my insurance. The insurance company (I assume) are getting a greasy palm from Auto Windscreens, or are the cheap and nasty company of the industry. The member of staff that turned up to do the repair was on time and efficient. I have no complaints regarding this. However, the staff at the central office couldn't organise a drinking competition in a brewery. I have now had to contact the central office 4 times. None of the staff I have had the misfortune to deal with showed any knowledge or idea that they knew what was going on. I was passed around the phone system, cut off and generally shown how poorly this inept company is run. Finally, I spoke to a manager. I can now see that they are hiring even worse mangers than phone operators. He stated that a 2-week wait is normal. So how is it that Auto Glass can do the same repair in 24 hours? I have tested this by calling their operations centre. Speaking to the tech' that carried out the repair, he said that the office can't schedule to save their lives. On average the travel time per day is 4 hours. There is no wonder the tech's are unable to offer a reliable service. To make matters worse, you can see the repair. But what else did I expect for such a poor company. Rubbish. I have lodged a complaint with auto windscreens, let's see if the office staff can deal with this in a timely manner or if the industry ombudsman will be needed. I'm not holding my breath.

The worst company I have ever had contact with. They inform you last minute that no technician available so they re-arrange your appointment. It happened already twice for one appointment, last time when car was only 2 days before MOT. In general 3 weeks with no windscreen replacement.. Return money back after appointment cancellation takes up to 12 days. I do not recommend for anyone to waist the time for such unprofessional and poor service.

Auto windscreens cancelled my appointment as "they could not contact me" despite sending 2 emails. I have spent at least 1 hour on the phone. There we no one to take responsibility, no supervisor or manager willing to speak to me I was just told we will have to re book the appointment. Not the first time this has happened.

Windscreen replaced two days ago at the Oxford Auto Winscreens depot. I arrived 15 minutes early and the very polite staff were ready. They showed me the waiting room,loo etc and offered the television while I waited.I was able to keep an eye on the whole process through the windows into the workshop.Everything looked very professional. 45minutes later,the windscreen on my Qashkai had been replaced and the sensors recalibrated. For this transaction,service could not have been better.

They will give you a 2 hour time slot the day prior then if you ring and ask a time they’ll give you an exact time they’ll be there and still turn up late, passed both the exact time slot and the 2 hour time slot. You can then file a complaint which all they do is ring you 4 days later and apologise. I lost out on £60 due to them failing to turn up when specified due to my child missing nursery. Customer service is awful Would not recommend

Trim on the driver's side of my windscreen bon the outside was left sticking out a lot after I had a new windscreen fitted. I phoned up and they sent out another technician to try and rectify the problem who tried to force the trim back into place leaving it bent out of shape. They are now refusing to fix this issue based on the inspection videos which do not show the affected area in any detail, and the post job video either intentionally or coincidentally pans over it very quickly. I have sent images that actually show the damage to them but they will not accept responsibility.
