Tasmania Moblie Locksmith not only provided a new remote key for the car but also rebuilt the ignition switch. Replacing all the key segments in the switch, Excellent outcome very impressive and much appreciated. I give 5 stars Highly recommended
I made a somewhat frantic phone call/enquiry about my front door that wouldn’t open properly, after just moving into our new home. The lady I spoke with (whose name unfortunately eludes me!) was professional, calm and kind. I almost forgot I was feeling quite stressed by the experience! I was put at ease immediately. Within a day John was on our doorstep, and, again, I was put at ease with his high level of professionalism and efficiency in fixing our front door, with a new lock and much better keys! Thank you very much, team. I would recommend you to anyone who values the security of their home.
Excellent service, professional & friendly, we had a very minor issue with the coding of the key to the car after it was cloned and that problem was solved within 5 minutes of finding out. They have earnt our loyalty through honest service and we will not use anyone else moving forward.
Very impressed with Tas Mobile service today. Business confirmed appointment, team arrived as said, friendly and efficient, with fair pricing. Would use again, if needed.
Exceptional quick and professional service. Always were and have continued under new management. Lucky to have a local business that is customer focused! Brilliant job!
I couldn't recommend this service highly enough. The friendliness, professionalism and the support providing options and solutions. The punctuality, efficiency and price point exceptional. Well done team, if only all businesses could apply your practices. Thankyou so much Tanya.
Friendly, well presented staff who explained exactly what the issue was and what work they did. Well priced. Only reason 5 stars not given was due to initial mix up about where the car was being serviced.
