Customers are largely positive, often highlighting friendly, professional staff, speedy MOTs and good value, with extras such as valets and video/checklist feedback singled out as helpful. However, a notable number complain about poor communication and booking issues — missed confirmations, cancelled or delayed appointments, unanswered phones and occasional omitted jobs or unclear charges.

When do I pay for my MOT?

We never ask for payment details upfront.

Can I compare test centres another way?

Absolutely. True value looks different to everyone so, whether you want the nearest garage, the best-rated option or the lowest price, you can use the Sort By menu in the top-right corner to compare results by Price, Distance, Availability or Reviews - whatever matters most to you.

Can I reschedule my MOT booking?

You can change your booking details right up until the appointment date. You’ll find instructions in the confirmation email you received or in your BookMyGarage account. Your chosen garage will contact you to acknowledge the amendment and re-confirm your booking.

Can I take my car to a different garage if it fails its MOT?

Yes, as long as your MOT certificate hasn’t expired, you can take your car elsewhere for repairs and retesting.
