Remote in pieces
Friday I had a chat explained what was wrong with the key remote. I then sent the key off Friday in bits really no rubber button and some of the metal from the remote had fallen off. But sceptical they could fix. Today(Tuesday) I received it back and works perfectly. Service great all the way through and the price isn’t painful either. Would definitely recommend

Vauxhall Corsa key fob repair
I sent my key off (vauxhall corsa) on a Monday late afternoon for repair - both switches were damaged - and had it back to me repaired on the Wednesday. Great service.

I am blown away by the service!
Utterly fantastic service from start to finish.
The key for my Corsa had seen better days – the plastic casing had worn away to the point where I was pressing the switches directly with my thumb, and eventually one of them snapped off.
I tried to sort it myself with a DIY repair case and switch set from eBay. I’d never soldered before but followed a YouTube video and thought I’d done an okay job. A week later the key stopped working. When I tried to re-do the soldering, I knocked some capacitors off and badly burnt the board. At that point the fob was completely dead, so I hung up my soldering iron for good and got in touch with Remotefobcentre.
I had reply on WhatsApp early in the morning one day last week, explaining the service and what I needed to do. I posted the key in a jiffy bag on Tuesday, it arrived with them on Wednesday, and by Thursday – about 20 minutes before writing this – I had it back in my hands.
The case has been replaced and, from what I can tell, the switches on the board have been renewed as well. Most importantly, it all works perfectly again, despite the damage I’d caused attempting my own repair.
I can’t find anyone offering microsoldering locally within 20 miles of me, so having a specialist service like this available by post is brilliant. I’m genuinely impressed by both the speed and the quality of the work.
Thank you, Remotefobcentre!

Amazing service and superb value
Amazing service and superb value
My car fob was completely replaced and returned to me in just two days after I first sent it to the Remote Fob Centre.
The quality of the new fob is excellent and it works perfectly.

Don't go to a main dealer. Read this
I found the company on the Internet.
My car fob was not working and I knew from previous experience going to the main dealer would result in a bill of several hundred pounds.
I contacted the company by WhatsApp very quick response and followed their procedure for getting the fob to them.
I posted it on a Monday next day delivery and had it back on the Wednesday.
Completely repaired and working well for a fraction of a main dealers prices. Brilliant service.
