Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 111 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Customers appreciate the convenience of kiosk services and the quick, efficient nature of some interactions, especially when a locksmith arrives promptly and performs the service well. Some consumers are satisfied when the keys work as expected and the service is fast and friendly. However, many people are dissatisfied with the high prices, often finding them significantly more expensive than local alternatives, and are frustrated by the lack of upfront price discussions. Reviewers frequently report issues with product quality, such as keys not working properly or being of poor quality, and express concerns about unprofessional staff who are aggressive, uncommunicative, or attempt to overcharge. Additionally, many customers experience poor communication, unresponsiveness from customer service, and long wait times, leading to significant frustration and a perception of unfair treatment.

Locked keys in car

Locked keys in car. Called to cancel lock smith and I was charged any even though no services where done and they wouldn’t refund my money. A message stating I would only be charged if the service was finished

Called for a car lockout, got charged out the rear

Called for a car lockout in a panic. Clicked the first result that came up - first mistake. Was not given a price upfront, which is required by my state for emergency services (which I was not aware of at the time), only told that someone was on their way to my location. Second mistake. 2 kids fresh out of high school showed up and, admittedly, popped my car with no problem or damage.

Without having been given a quote or even a suggestion of a price, I was then charged $278 for a simple car unlock. $99 for "service call", and then $179 for "car lockout". (The average in my area is $70-90.) However, they were two guys standing in my driveway and I was one young woman on the verge of a meltdown, so I felt pressured to pay. The charge is simply "LOCKSMITH SERVICES", no company name or even a person's name.

I called and filed a complaint so I can get a refund for predatory practices and exploitation under distress, and was met with some dyslexic woman who refused to spell my email address correctly. I am not optimistic about receiving a reply or a call back, so I will be filing a chargeback with my bank.

Do not waster your time or money on these crooks. Kiosk shorted us one of the keys we paid for. No one answers the phone at the customer service number on the kiosk. The retailer of course says "we have nothing to do with that machine" - I'm sure that's true, but why allow it on your property if you aren't willing to support it? 1 star because there is not an option for zero.

Terrible service

Terrible service; I ordered keys with a design, but yellow keys arrived instead—and they don't work because they are too big.

Good people

Quick and friendly. The tech arrived at my home and got my lock open in no time. A little more expensive than some other places, but I didn’t want to wait for hours, so it was worth it.

Key didn't fit after waiting for it to arrive by mail

I don't like that the key isn't made immediately and you have to wait for it to be mailed. It was more expensive than expected because of the need for mailing. Then the key didn't even fit! I will go to a local key maker in the future.
