Not a great start with reception
Not a great start with the woman on reception . Rude and unprofessional, however the chap who came to pick up my car was lovely. I gave 4 stars because my car came back looking like new

Not a great start with the woman on reception . Rude and unprofessional, however the chap who came to pick up my car was lovely. I gave 4 stars because my car came back looking like new
I have had to use Hereford FMG twice in last two years after being hit from behind twice! Overall I have found them excellent on both occasions. Friendly and welcoming from car collection to delivery. I’d particularly like to highlight Tracey. Answers every phone call and greets every customer professionally and you can tell she wants to help. Only reason I knocked one mark of is they missed part of the repair initially, but once pointed it out did seek to resolve quickly. A great team!
Unfortunately after an incident I had to go through my insurance company. FMG were fantastic in repairing my vehicle back to an immaculate standard. I was informed with updates via text and email regarding my repair. I unfortunately didn’t get his name, but I think it was Ian and his colleague - they were polite, friendly and helpful with providing me a courtesy car and delivering my vehicle back. However.. Tracey from customer services (Leamington) is beyond abrupt and generally very unwilling to help with any customer enquiries (also likes to hang up just as quick) I imagine many customers are attempting to contact FMG, with enquiries and ask for updates on their repairs etc.. and an incredibly snappy and rude customer service advisor doesn’t make the situation any better. Apart from that I am thrilled with the repair and will recommend FMG again.

I gave them four star, not the five as it had to go back in And I had to mention a few things, but it’s all amazing now ….. Didn’t know why they didn’t do it in the first place They must be rushed off their feet because the paint job they done was fantastic etc .
I recently used this car repair service, and overall, I’m impressed with the quality of the work. Especially being completed in 5 days! The area they repaired looks absolutely beautiful—like nothing ever happened! One thing that stood out was the added car cleaning service. It’s such a nice touch to get your car back looking good as new, both inside and out. That said, I wouldn’t rate the cleaning a perfect 10/10, but it was still a great addition. The only downside for me was the customer service. The staff seemed a bit awkward, and the environment wasn’t as welcoming as I would’ve liked. A little more friendliness and warmth would go a long way. All in all, if you’re looking for quality repairs and appreciate an extra cleaning service, Grimsby FMG Repair Services is a solid choice
Our car suffered minor damage while parked and, as part of the no-fault claim, our insurance company suggested we use its preferred repairer FMG. The actual repair (to slight damage on the front passenger side) went fairly smoothly and all now appears to be in order. However, I feel it's worth commenting on two aspects in the hope it might help others. First, the internet portal that FMG uses to collect customer information, make arrangements, and provide progress updates (FMG Connect), is glitchy. To give just a few examples: (1) The link used to register with the portal can't also be used to log in afterwards. (2) Having registered, I received five separate requests by SMS to upload photos of the damage to my car - why so many? (3) The Event Timeline on the 'Dashboard' webpage, which is used to indicate the progress of the repair, doesn't display dates. Stating that a part was ordered on 'Monday, 1:16 pm' isn't terribly helpful when the entire repair process lasts several weeks. (4) The website sometimes displays contradictory information. Thus, the Event Timeline on the 'Dashboard' webpage stated: "User requests replacement vehicle" whereas the 'Replacement Vehicle' webpage stated: "You do not currently have a replacement vehicle booked". People getting their cars repaired are often stressed. Collectively, such minor glitches during the repair process tend to increase stress rather than diminish it. The second aspect worth mentioning is the length of time it takes to complete even minor repairs. Our car had relatively minor damage yet it took almost four weeks to repair it. There might be a shortage of skilled repair staff but a more rigorous initial assessment would have significantly speeded up the process. For example, why was it necessary to order a part after the car was in for repairs rather than beforehand? It's no coincidence that the car hire company used by our insurer was incredibly keen to get us to use them rather than accept a replacement car from FMG. They emailed and phoned us several times and even offered to deliver the hire car (a Mercedes) to our house. Presumably they charge the non-discounted rate to the insurer and, over several weeks, this amounts to a significant profit for them. In our case, the cost of car hire was more than £2,500. Yes, it was paid by the insurers but inevitably they pass on the cost to customers in the form of higher premiums for car insurance.
Would have been 5 star but it was a long wait for car to be repaired.Pleased with courtesy car.Delivery driver,Lawrence,was cheerful,friendly and explained everything clearly.Repair looks brilliant.Car cleaned inside and out. Scunthorpe branch.
The service was good but quite slow, this was due to not being able to get some parts. I got regular text updates and was able to call and speak to staff easily. We received a high quality courtesy car which was incredibly useful. Work completed and as good and the car was very clean on collection.
Had my car repaired at the Dunfermline branch after a collision with a deer. Great service and a great repair on the car! After the repair you wouldn’t even be able to tell the car had been in a crash!
Would have been 5 stars but for some reason any phone calls from the branch were made to my wife's number not mine and I'm the only named driver. The day my car was supposed come back the branch made a blunder and called the driver back as they hadn't completed the calibration. All that being said the repair looks amazing. The car is here and an glad to have her back.
I would use them again. They fixed my car after somebody drove into it. They dropped a courtesy car off at my house and dropped my car back a few days later. The staff were lovely and I’m pleased with the work they’ve done. My only criticism is that I don’t think the communication is the best, they don’t send a confirmation email which I’d prefer and I also sent an email that wasn’t responded to. Other than that I have no issues.
I read lots of bad reviews for this company so was wary of what might happen, but I am very happy with the way it all went, picked my car up Friday, phone call Tuesday morning to say it was going to be delivered back Wednesday morning. Only thing I didn't like was the curtesy car, was awful lol Thanks all at FMG
Bridgend branch - Great customer service and work done. Insurance job completed for fire damaged car. Collection and return of vehicle was seamless. Date of completion had to be extended a couple of times because of delays in parts, so clearly outside of FMG control. Slight confusion caused by some of the auto-messages, but easily cleared up by staff. Works completed to a good standard and customer care throughout was very good.
Car collection very efficient by Bridgend branch
