Quick & efficient …

Called the AA who verified my claim details and registered the claim. Received a call from the authorised garage to have the key made. Key ordered and call received to make an appt to issue key. All in all process took 2 weeks and I was extremely happy with the service.

The whole process was made easy

The whole process was made easy. I phoned up and my claim was done over the phone. I was given a date for the appt quickly.
On the day, the AA person called me approx 15 mins before arriving. The process of getting a new key and my existing one reprogrammed was quick and thorough. It was a great service.

Keys locked in car.

Phoned to say my keys are locked in my car by accident. Was told that the key man ( no pun ) was on his way.
The AA person arrived and was very quick at retreiving my keys. He was very sociable and competent at his job.

All the customer service reps were very helpful, process was easy and smooth, and I was walked through it with full information about what was happening, what was going to happen, and all of my questions were asked. I paid for a key repair and quickly after sending my receipt I was reimbursed for what I was owed

Apologies that you have been unhappy with our service Mr King. Could you elaborate on the way in which we were unhelpful?

I was seriously unimpressed by this service.
Firstly I lost my car key.
I was told I had to wait 48 hours for it to be potentially returned to me.
Then I was told I could pay for my own key cutting service which I had to do as I had to have access to my vehicle (because I have dogs and they wouldn’t be allowed in the replacement vehicle - should I have been allocated one).
So I arrange my own service at the cost of £420.
48 hours later I received notification that I would be reimbursed the £420 as my keys had not been found (I did know that) and then it took 5 business days to return the £420.

I’m only giving 2 stars as my money was paid out. The service is not fit for purpose.

Apologies that you have been unhappy with our service Jihan. The policy you have purchased unfortunately has a 48hr wait as part of their terms and conditions. Please contact us on 0345 303 0550 if you wish to take your concerns further.

The claims process was straightforward

The claims process was straightforward, and the information required to make a claim was explained clearly. However, I was disappointed that I had to arrange everything myself rather than the service being provided.
I had to source a replacement key, have it delivered, get it cut, and then travel 120 miles round trip to the nearest motorcycle dealer to have it programmed. All of these costs had to be paid upfront, and I couldn't claim for the mileage.

Based on my experience, I don't believe this policy offers truly comprehensive cover. While the claims process was clear, the level of assistance provided fell well short of what I expected.

Apologies that you have been disappointed, Steve. Motorcycles are specialist and cannot (yet) be done by our team of auto locksmiths. The policy does state that we will pay for the cost of the new key and associated locksmith charges (programming) and we are sorry for any misunderstanding.

Great service, friendly staff, and a smooth experience

I’ve had a really good experience with Keycare. The service was quick, professional, and easy to deal with from start to finish. When I contacted them, the staff were friendly, helpful, and clear about what I needed to do, which made the whole process simple and stress-free.

We recently used key care through the AA. They were amazing. Car was sorted in days and the claim was done in record time. Barely had to do anything other than send paperwork. A real time saver and a load off my mind

Keycare took the pain away

Keycare took the pain away. The process of replacing the key was simple and painless. Once the key had been replaced, the money was in our account in short order.

The agent we dealt with was very diligent and professional. Great customer service.
