Why do Motability take SOOOOOO OP long to authorise this?

Friday it took 90 mins to change a tyre nearly all of that was waiting for authorisation

Today back again and 40 mins so far they shut at 6pm, in 50 mins and they’ve got 2 motability cars they’re waiting for.

Another here who recommends the mobile service after a nightmare I had at a Kwik-Fit depot a fortnight ago?

Booked a time to have a tyre changed, turned up 15 minutes early as they ask. Nowhere to park other than in the entrance to the workshop and a guy said “you can’t leave your car there because I got to get a car out and another in”. So I get out of the way and after he moved his cars I put mine back. Went back in the office with that in itself a nightmare with a spring shut loaded doors to get passed along with a step over threshold. Then the horns started blasting for me to move my car again so asked where I was suppose to park with no spaces never mind disabled spaces.

So with not too many kind words I told them where they could stick their tyre, made my way back home, got on the PC and booked the mobile guy, turned up next morning with no problems.

Never again will I use the local workshops because there nothing but trouble, both the staff and the access.

Hope your sorted Rich but, another vote for mobile service.

Is it Motability or the somewhat ineffectual Kwik-Fit which is a bit of misnomer in itself.

Never had a problem with our kwik fit, and never spent 90 mins waiting for motability to authorise new tyres
