This is an awesome Rusholme Locksmith I used them last night after I locked the keys in my car…read more Very happy with this local locksmith, I would use them again!

You know that we all have different thresholds for high heels that are falling apart. Well mine…read moregoes pretty far. As long as my feet don't touch the ground and if I love the pair I will keep on wearing them (and there are even exceptions to this - so what if there's a hole in my favourite flats, I have tights on etc etc). The Village Cobbler is what you need when your black Zara peep toes are too bad for words, and you've already tried cellotaping them back together ... and you've got to get the train back to uni tomorrow. Oh, and could you just do them now? Thankyou thankyou thankyou. Obviously under normal circumstances there is a queue- a couple of days is usual. They cut keys here as well and sell all sorts of useful things like luggage etc. The only thing to defeat them was a small satchel bag that I completely murdered: my sister thought that she could salvage it (and thus take ownership of the poor thing). Alas, they needed the spring which I had carelessly dropped somewhere. Lesson learned. They are not miracle workers but they can fix and engrave most things.

I really wish I had read the reviews before booking this company…read more I called Tom to change the mech strip on my window. He told me the full service would be around £59 (discounted as I'm local), plus £30 for any parts and 20% VAT. He also said someone would arrive within 30 minutes. Someone did arrive and after briefly looking at the window, he said it couldn't be removed and suggested installing a sash jammer as a "temporary" solution. I refused because this would require drilling into the frame and permanently damaging it. I then contacted another company who said they would come out later as they had several jobs ahead. However, within an hour another person showed up at my house. I asked if he was Chris (from the second company), but he said his name was James, so I assumed he might be from the same company I had contacted earlier. He carried out a very poor quality repair and then charged £79 labour and £60 for parts -- a total of £166.80, which was far higher than what I had originally been quoted. He also asked to use my toilet and did so twice within a short period while at the property, which I personally found uncomfortable and unprofessional given the brief nature of the visit. Later that afternoon (around 3pm), Chris from the second company I contacted arrived, which made the whole situation even more confusing about who had actually carried out the earlier work. When I called Tom to clarify whether he had sent multiple people to my address, he was rude, dismissive, and hung up on me when I asked about his business details. I felt extremely uncomfortable and pressured by the situation. Because I was unsure who had attended my property and felt the pricing was misleading, I contacted my credit card provider to dispute the transaction. Only after I mentioned a chargeback did Tom briefly confirm he had done the job, but he remained unhelpful and unprofessional throughout. Overall, a very stressful experience with poor communication, unclear pricing, and extremely disappointing service. I have raised a dispute with my bank regarding the charges.
