Machine broken -rip off

Prepaid a £20 ceramic wash. Turned up the car wash. The operator told me the machine was broken and it was handwash only. Had to pay £10 for a handwash. The operator literally sprayed water over my car, put the foam brush very quickly over it and rinsed it. That was it! My car was still dirty. He waved me over to another area and I thought he was going to finish it but no he didn’t. Took less than 5 minutes! What a total rip off!
I complained straight away on the app and said I wanted my prepaid ceramic refunded because I couldn’t use it. They gave me a £20 refund straight away however I would have thought they would have also refunded me the £10 hand wash seeing as though it wasn’t washed. Had to go to Morrisons straight away and spend another £10 to get my car washed properly.

N griggs,

We appreciate you sharing your experience. It is concerning to hear about the issues with the handwash service and that your car was still dirty afterward. We are reviewing the process to ensure our services meet expectations.

Disappointed

Super easy to use the app to purchase the wash you need, and usually don’t need to wait long, but just doesn’t feel like my car is being washed, even when I choose one of the expensive options (ultra HD), my car always looks dirty after! It’s been 3 times now in the past 2 months, and same results each time.
The person doing the wash doesn’t pay attention to washing the car properly, mirrors and windscreen isn’t being cleaned properly, roof of the car always gets missed and the back windscreen not fully cleaned.
At this rate I much rather pay the hand car wash for much better wash. Quite disappointed

Shouted at and made to feel worthless

Paid £10.50 for a wash and got shouted at THREE times, had my youngest grandsons in the back who got upset. I couldn't leave because I had cars behind me, was fuming as I am paying for this. Definitely won't be returning and encourage my friends not to either.

Pre paid vouchers SCAM

Bought some pre paid vouchers to use at my local car wash as I'm a regular customer. Turned up today to wash my car and the vouchers have disappeared!! They've expired, no warning by email or from the app. So I've spent £40 on car washes for nothing ? Absolutely no reason for them to expire so quickly when you're buying them in bulk.

Car wash ? What a laugh

POOL - Redruth:-
GARBAGE. It dosn't matter how many times you ask the guys to take care of the wheels - they never do.

We use the top of the list.

The fist time, I gave then an extra few quid,,,, thinking they had done so - but No.
There was bird droppings on the window and door - still there after washing.
Where two panels meet leaves a ridge that needs cleaning - but No.
We no longer use that place, as my 3 year old can do a better job.

Valid voucher refused

Travelled 17 miles to Redruth to use my monthly wash voucher valid until 24/06/22. The operator refused to honour this arguing that I would have to come back on 24/6, he did not have enough command of English to differentiate between commence and valid until 24/6. I then had to back out of the queue. Not good enough! Can your staff be aught to understand basic English.
