Unusual for a service to be exactly as described but this was . When promised and in the time indicated by a competent courteous advocate of the company. Difficult circumstances to carry out your job in the cold and rain. A good experience.

Booked this company as my windscreen had been hit with two stones and had cracked. Was easily booked in for 5 days after the event. Then had a phone call less than 24hrs before my appointment to be told they don't carry my window in stock, needs to come from a dealer and it would take another 7 days!!!! WHY BOOK ME IN AND THEN TELL ME THE DAY BEFORE THAT YOU DONT HAVE MY WINDOW!!! Surely you would know if you had it or not the day I gave you my details and you booked me in!!!! This is a disgrace as I don't wish to use my car with a giant crack in the windscreen!!! Why not tell me on the day or have atleast ordered it on the day you booked me in to save me time!!!! What a load of bollocks!!

I have now been waiting over 4 weeks for my windscreen to be replaced... They did not turn up for the 1st appointment and when I called that evening to ask why they said there had been a computer error and the job had not been assigned to a technician. The day before the 2nd appointment they rang to cancel with the same excuse and they have just called now to cancel the 3rd appointment, with the same excuse again - despite the fact I rang them on Friday to check that everything was going ahead fine. Unbelievably they have now offered me a date over a week away - by which time I will have been without the use of my car for over 5 weeks! The worst service I have ever encountered

Utterly and fatally incompetent. Unfortunately my insurance company use them, and so far I have had one cancelled booking (glass not delivered to installer), one visit with the wrong glass, and last Thurs- another cancelled booking (no reason given). I have had a few text messages and calls, but sadly, no actual windscreen replacement I do think that there are some competent people working there but they are outnumbered by the incompetent and hampered by inadequate dysfunctional systems. The consequences for me have been a car that is now not useable as I have missed 3 MOT appointments. If you are paying for your own screen, please do not use this company. They deserve to go out of business.

I have a very common car. Made 4 appointments to get my windscreen replaced and every time they failed to come. No communication, and the call center lied to me instead of finding out the issue. Terrible terrible company with no customer service. Everytime I talked to them they didn't care.

My car is a Jaguar XF. It is 3 years old at the end of this month and needs an MOT. Mid-month the windscreen was chipped by a stone. I've sent a photo of the damage to my garage/dealer and they advise me that this would result in a MOT failure. I can't tax the car without an MOT, and I can't get an MOT without the screen being repaired or replaced! So far, Auto Windscreens have made three appointments over two weeks and have cancelled each one since they don't have a replacement screen. In a few days I won't be able to drive the car legally. Auto Windscreens have NOT delivered (even after giving assurances) and I have no confidence that they will do what they say. So, if your car is less than 'common' LOOK ELSEWHERE !

The windscreen on my Land Rover Discovery had a small star crack (but in the driver's eye line so an MOT fail) which they were supposed to repair. The crew on the van knew nothing about repairs though, they'd been told to replace it. And replace it they did, in the dark by the light of their van headlamps. When I checked it i the daylight there were rubber offcuts stuck all over the seats and carpets, black resin patches on the inside of the new windscreen (that the MOT man was going to fail it on before we managed to scrape it off), glue and some kind of white staining all over the exterior trim on one side and the rubber seal had been twisted at the bottom of the screen so it now lets both water and wind through. That was a month ago and so far all requests for AW to come and rectify the problems have been met with silence. They listen politely during my numerous phone calls, promise that a member of management will contact me, and then do nothing. It's as if their complaints procedure is to outwait you so you give up. That's going to be difficult to do in my case as the wind from the seal misalignment overwhelms the heater making the car undriveable in the winter. Very very poor service. It's bad enough that the technicians couldn't do the job properly but that senior staff then ignore my rectification requests must reflect the principles by which they conduct their business. Caveat Emptor. If you have a choice, go elsewhere.

I was a moment late in getting to the agreed location - the operative was patient and waited for me, Was courteous and professional. He worked efficiently and tidily and reviewed the job with me at the end. I'd certainly reccomend Auto Windscreens

Have just had Lloyd here to replace my daughter's windscreen. He arrived promptly, having rung to let us know he was on his way. A very friendly guy who did an excellent job.

Young local fella came out to fit a screen to a MK7 Volkswagen Golf R, very friendly, forgot his name cause I'm terrible with them, however assured me after previous terrible repairs on different cars that this would be top notch, and he wasn't wrong. Invited him inside to complete the repair, rather than outside which was a blessing is disguise as it was terrible weather outside. The young fella talked me through the repair, and made sure I was happy with the condition both before and after the installation. Never once did I feel rushed, yet he was still able to complete the repair quicker than previous installations? One word... fantastic! Signed it all off and left a happy man! Would recommend these guys whether it's an insurance job, or a cash replacement. He also gave me great advice about windscreen chip repairs and replacement's if you're not covered by insurance which they are able to accommodate as well!

Mark, the fitter was a very pleasant and nice guy, he rang first thing in the morning to advise of an estimated time of arrival which turned out not to be convenient due to a hospital appt for me. He said not to worry, he would work around me and asked me to call him when I knew I would be available. When I did he gave me a new time of arrival which he stuck to. He did a great tidy job on my car and I felt confident and happy at all times during the process of booking the appt to getting the work done. Thanks to all, but especially Mark from Doncaster, his manager should be made aware of these comments please. Thanks Paul
