AVOID THESE GUYS! Below is my old review before this update. I thought they could earn 4 stars because they were reachable, had a fair estimate and worked with me on price. The dealer near me ended up being only $30 more so I am going with them. Glad I didn't ever give these guys money because they can ignore my caller ID and have no location to go into and just disappear when they want to. So here's what happened and why they lost my service and Yelp review....
They answered calls and seemed good. On my last call when I placed the order of the key, one guy told me a down payment was required, but when I actually placed the order the guy said it wasn't. So on 2/5 I ordered the keys and they said 3-5 days, maybe closer to the 3 (probably lied to win my service) and said for sure no more than 7 days. On the 3rd day 2/7 I called to follow up and got through, they said thy would call me when it came. On 2/9 I still had no call back so I figured some times people are busy. Tried calling a few times and nothing all of a sudden they don't pickup phones. Then finally the number texts me "Please text me" so I do and multiple times without reply. So I get on a different phone and call in and of course they pickup. When I say who I am the guy Anthony who was cool before gets an attitude and says "Look I said I would call you when we get it, we haven't got it yet. W'ere super busy and you keep calling. We will let you know." and ended the call. So that pretty much let me know they had been avoiding calls from my number. I went back to Modesto from SF and waited all weekend until Monday for a call and tried calling in Monday and left a message. No calls, no keys, nothing. So I am using the dealer now and hope these guys eat the $500 cost of keys. Nobody but one guy in the area apparently does Volvo, all locksmiths in Modesto, Stockton and Tracy said only the dealer. Sounds like these guys lied or are a fraud. No keys, no service, no calls...probably because they can't do it or get the keys. All I wanted to do was make sure the key is still coming and not back ordered since there was no update for 7 days.
OLD REVIEW: Currently a 4 star in my opinion only because I havent heard final number and havent had a service to rate, trying to get a key made (cut & programmed) for a car I just bought. Each call gets dispatched to a new guy but still they are quickly able to access the notes to my account and tell me the latest update.
CALL 1 (2/2/18)- got an instant quote from a guy, quick, smart and easy going. Called around a bit more before calling back shopping for quotes.
CALL 2 (2/2/18- (Chris was his name?), accessed my notes and had all the info, told me more about the process. I told him I might just go to the dealer because they are guaranteed and have all I need for certified parts, are reputable, and gave a better price by about $150-170 vs a locksmith company I've never heard of. He explained the convenience portion and fees they have but I would imagine they aren't marked up more than a dealer for parts/labor aside from Mobile convenience. He told me he would get me a call back about a better price.
CALL 3 (2/3/18)- Anthony picked up and I checked in on the new pricing I was waiting for. He had notes that said they were still waiting on the boss to give a final number and that I was noted to be called back. Was happy to know the notes are being passed along. We talked a bit more and had a couple laughs, super cool guy. I think its nice that when you're shopping around they don't just blow you off and stop spending time on giving you good service.
CALL 4 (2/5/18) - Unfortunately never got a call back so I called in. Anthony picked up again checked on status and saw a final number was submitted, got me a quote I couldnt turn down, a little above dealer but barely and with the convenience of to my door, I confirmed.
Will update next when I have an ETA for service and service performed. Estimated 3-5 days, no downpayment for service was required. Not bad so far, as long as nobody forgets to make a complete/accurate order today. read more
