Fantastic service! came to my place at work and sorted my ignition barrel and 2 keys with no hassle, I couldn't complain anymore now my car starts better than ever.
I had lost my van keys while out of the country, I phoned Royalcarkeys just before I boarded a flight back to Gatwick(where my vehicle was parked in the short term carpark) By the time the plane had landed there locksmith was there waiting for me and had the problem solved in 10 minutes. Great service.
Uber efficient. Royale repaired my broken key fob and provided a new one as a spare within literally two hours of calling them. Faultless service and total expertise. They are like a Rapid Response Unit!
