Windscreen shattered. So far waited 2 days to have it repaired. Appaullingly slow service. Need my car for work. Unsecure parked on the road with no windscreen. Dont return calls. Say job has been escalated and someone will call me back and they dont. Terrible service. Took 2 days off work so far waiting for a fitter!

After spending over 4 hours trying to get through to them they asked me to pay the excess of £75 as the claim was going through the Halifax insurance company. After paying the money by debit card they then told me it was a month waiting before they could fit the screen. After various phone calls to the Halifax to complain as my MOT was due in a couple of days Auto windscreens agreed to fit the screen the day before the MOT. I was going to cancel them doing the work and use a more reliable company But as they now gave me a firm date before the MOT I trusted them to carry out the work. On arrival of the windscreen technician, he took one look at the windscreen and said they have sent the wrong one.and we will be in contact. I again tried to get another date to no avail until I again contacted the Halifax insurance company direct who said that if Auto windscreens do not give me a date within a reasonable timescale they will contact the underwriters to give me another windscreen company that can carry out the work more quickly. To this Auto windscreens phoned to say they could do the work tomorrow if I agreed. I agreed and will be taking a second day off work for which I do not get paid. Fingers crossed they bring the right windscreen and the job is finished tomorrow.

They booked to replace my van windscreen month ago and text me one day before to confirm that they are coming but no one turned up and did not bother to ring me when I rang them they said they will rebook it.

The worst company I have ever had the misfortune to have dealings with. My insurance company directed me to use them when my windscreen cracked. It has taken me numerous phone calls and waiting hours on end to get through to them and eventually after complaining to my insurance company and asking how I go about getting my £75 back they found an appointment for me 7 days after I contacted them.

Auto windscreens did a great job fixing my windscreen, Mike from Newport was very efficient and did a quick and thorough job. I would recommend them

Dreadful booking system they can't give a time just a date, totally inflexible.

Tried to book via insurance-been told 22nd June next appointment-this means my car is off the road until then as the crack is in my sightline also means my car will be without MOT as it expires before then, customer service just state they are busy-Autoglass have it in stock and can visit this week but my insurance don't deal with them-maybe because good service isn't as cheap as this... New insurance will be soon and will make sure its Autoglass cover not these cowboys

Shame they don't have 0 stars! To cut a long story short I was put through to them via budget, I had no rear windscreen, within five minutes I had paid my £75 excess to the very lovely helpful customer service rep and that's the last I've heard from them??!! I emailed and got a reply basically saying I was looking at June for a repair??! I paid someone else to do it and they keep saying I will get a refund but I've been dobbed off for two weeks now!! Lies after lies!

Reported windscreen completely broken and asked for a replacement windscreen and paid my excess. 36 hours later have had to phone auto windscreens to see what is happening. What sort of service is this, they had my landline number, mobile number and email address, worrying.

I live on the Black Isle, north of Inverness, and today I had stone chip damage repaired by Archie. He telephoned twice to confirm the appointment and his expected arrival time. I found Archie to be extremely courteous, and he carried out the repair expeditiously and very professionally, to my complete satisfaction. Thank you for such efficient service.

PLEASE DON'T USE! They have said to me today that they do NOT guarantee there repair work only the workmanship. (Which wasn't great) dispite it saying otherwise on their website. Aslo they don't give 100% customer satisfaction like they state on website. The best they can do is refund my insurance company and if I'm luckly I MIGHT get my £25 excess back. My repair has gone bad 18 months after repair. It can't be re-repaired. I was also told that 18 months is a "good" period for a repair. The company that was going to repair it (the other "auto" chip repair company) said they would replace the windscreen if it was there repair job gone bad. When I checked my paperwork it was autowindscreens (sadly) Customer service very poor. Service very poor. Do Not Use them!

I just tried to get my wind screen repaired by a rival company (my insurance company chooses) they couldn't repair it as it is s previous repair gone bad but I should call office and they should rectify the issue. Sadly the previous repair was with autowindscreen. I call then and the best they can do is refund my insurance company for the repair (I'm no longer with them) if I'm lucky I MIGHT get my £25 excess refunded but they don't do that normally. Also they want it made clear: Even though the website says "we guarantee all repairs and replacements" They only "standby repairs workmanship" and do not guarantee them. The best is a money back (to insurance company) offer. So I'm left with a windscreen that is worse than before the repair and hopefully £25 returned to me if I'm lucky. Extremely poor customer service. Please don't use- Admiral insurance no longer use them. I won't and will be going to the other company with "auto" in there name that does "guarantee ALL repairs"
