Agree with all of the reviews. Used recently, they put me in touch with astronomically expensive locksmith without telling me the company name. Trustpilot reviews were terrible (rapid locksmith services). Overall it cost over £900 as the door wouldn’t lock. Complete madness. This should be illegal, the charging structure preys on desperate people.

Absolute pricks. Website says NO CALLOUT FEE. Came to my studios where the key was broken in the lock, did nothing but look at it, offer to drill off ALL THREE LOCKS, charging me £180 per lock. As a uni student I could not afford this and therefore declined the service. They then charged me £60 for a cancellation fee although I did not agree to any work. I felt too scared to decline as I am an 18 year old girl and felt like I had no choice as there was no one else around. Do not go anywhere near this company, they need shutting down.

Called them said would be there within the hour no one arrived 2.5 hrs later finally arrived looked at job said would be pricey but would try to keep costs down. Made safe overnight as didn’t have correct part. 5 days later arrived to complete job had wrong part. 3 days after that completed job but price was twice quoted. Wouldn’t recommend as very expensive.

Never Trust those people, phone this morning 9:30, I have been told someone will come within one hour, one hour later I had a phone call says wait another 30-35mins. after 50 minutes I receive another phone call and the guy told me he stuck on the M8 the way to my job. And later phone again they should be another 17 minutes. But more than half hour again and they phone me. They need another 25 minutes I waited until half hour later they told me and is there any possible? Come tomorrow because of still stuck on the M8? And from where he called me I am sure he is not in the car. also we have a check for the traffic there is no any issue on the M8 during the day.He is in a house quite place not in the car at all. I wasn’t happy. I phoned the company and the guy says they are really busy on the emergency and they just let me wait and laying they are on the way overall I have been waiting for over three hours. I fed up to wait again and those guy never showing their apologise. They’re just trying to hold the job for their convenience. Don’t trust this company again and we never use this company again. Do not use it 0333 344 6467

Daylight robbery overcharged me for locks and work time. Probably could have saved £250 half the cost. Anyone in the Harrow area stay away.

I would not even give them 1 star. They lie on their website, they charge five times as much as any other locksmith in London, they are dishonest and did not listen to what I asked for and tried to charge me £860 just to change the brass piece on the door. They are crooks and you should not go near them.

On the 27th October, This company changed a simple lock for my mother. They charged her £2895! and drove her to the bank to transfer money when she couldnt pay. I have tried to contact them to get them to refund some of that, but their telephone number seems to be unavailable. Unless the company contacts me in the next 24hours I will report them to trading standards and the police.

They never arrived on time, when they did come everthing seemed ok, a few weeks later the lock keeps locking me out, called them, but they deny all knowledge of them fitting a lock. Rip Offs who left me £268.00 lighter

Absolute con company tell you one price then charge extreme price , £337 to drill a Yale lock and put new one on , never again

Crooks - avoid at all costs.

God awful company. I was charged £320 when all they did was get a drill and break the lock. No replacement or any other service provided. I was massively overcharged and the man who turned up was rough

He inittialy quoted my mum £40. Charged £150 for him to look at the door. He then tried to charge her £1200 for a shoot bolt. Called another locksmith out today was quoted £135 and he charged £135 for 2 door adjustments and a new lock mechanism. This company are a complete scam and I wish my mum told me beforehand so I could have called out a genuine company like I have done today.

Called them and was quoted £60 to gain access to property. The guy who came was late arriving. I was expecting a professional sign written van but he turned up in a normal car and seemed unsure what to do. He said he could drill the lock ( at a cost of £360) but only 50/50 it would be successful and if not he would have to drill another lock (patio door) and that would be a further £200! I told him that I had been quoted £60 on the phone but he seemed disinterested. When I said I would try get someone else he tried to hit me with a cancellation fee, which had never been mentioned before. I refused to pay and he left saying that the company would instruct debt collectors to get the cancellation fee. I managed to get a local company out who gained access and fitted a new lock all at a cost of £115.
I feel like this company are scammers who quote a low price to get someone out and then hike the price or charge a cancellation fee. I would avoid at all costs.

Do not call totally hopeless a £100 job will turn into a £1000 my grandma payed them because she's elderly but these guys are proper scumbags

Advised the company, I thought our door that didnt open was an alignment issue. He called me and told me it would cost £600+VAT to fix. My gut told me he was a scammer so I got a second opinion. The new locksmith advised me it was an alignment issue and fixed it within 20 mins. Do not use this guy he is a scammer and very rude!

Overcharged by £1100 for a £100 job. Was a deliberate attempt at a scam. Raised a dispute with credit card company which was resolved in my favour.

Reading other reviews here it is scandalous the company is still operating and the director is not in prison for fraud.

A look at the most recent tax returns on gov.uk reveals the return that was made does not tally with the of income people have complained about paying on trust pilot. I hope HMRC investigates.

The vehicle the locksmith arrived in was also untaxed.

Would give zero if possible. Quoted £49 labour and if I didn’t have the work done would be £39 call out. Then proceeded to charge me for both plus £200 for a £28 lock!!!! £288 for 10 minutes work and a cheap lock!!! Total rip off - beware!!!

Do not use *** fire safety hazard ⚠️ *** untrained staff putting you and your families lives at risk and charging a premium for it! The locks they are fitting are illegal and a risk to life ! And they charge £700 for the pleasure!
