Frequently Asked Questions

If your question is not listed here, call 07988 388514 and ask it on the call. The guides explain three topics in more depth: what to do when locked out of your car, what a transponder key is, and what affects the cost of a replacement key. The services page lists every service offered, and the contact page sets out how to reach us by phone or email.
A note on what this page does not do. No prices are published anywhere on this site yet, and no arrival times are given, because neither has been confirmed. The answers here say so where it matters, instead of guessing. One question on this page is the safety question: what to do first if a child is locked in a car. Its answer starts with calling 999, and that answer is the same wherever it appears on this site. When real prices or real reviews exist, the pricing page and the reviews page will carry them first.

A transponder key is a car key with a small chip inside it. When you turn the key, or press the button, the chip sends a signal that the car checks before it will start. If the chip is missing or not programmed to the car, the engine will not start.
