Blue Bell - Wilmslow
Hi,
I need to get an inspection 1 sorted, and as I am near Wilmslow alot with my current client I thought I might use them as it could be easier than using my local dealer.
Any feedback, good or bad, on these guys. I've had no experience with them but I hoped someone else might...

Re: Blue Bell - Wilmslow
The only feedback I can offer is that these (amongst 3 or 4 others including Williams & Halliwell Jones) in the North West didn't even bother returning my calls regarding booking it in for a brake fluid service, and I ended up taking it down to Brum instead.

That's my thinking too.Taz x wrote:thats shabby then, a phone call is basic manners
If they can't be bothered returning your calls when you're trying to give them work, can you imagine how bad the service will be when you try to contact them to resolve a problem.

Re: Blue Bell - Wilmslow
Have you had experience of them since they became Williams, or only when they were David Holmes?T-J wrote:I use Williams at Stokport they have given me good service and have always called me back.
They're the only one I'd use within an hour's drive of me when they were called David Holmes, but I hate the Williams dealer network with a passion due to my past experiences of the Liverpool and Manchester franchises.
That reminds me that it's another month and I've got to do my monthly call, as I've also not had much luck with Williams Stockport bodyshop either. Something I asked them to look into in September last year seems to keep slipping off their radar, and every time I call it's "we haven't forgotten you, but there's a bit of a backlog.". Unfortunately as I've got them investigating something under the anti-corrosion warranty I can't take it to anywhere else to check out as they've already submitted the paperwork and other franchises will just get the request bounced.
I'm giving them one more chance before I go there personally. If it was a big problem then I'd be jumping up and down, but as it's such a tiny issue and they're not sure whether it's covered or not, I wanted to give them the chance to check before I ask them to do the work (or probably take it elsewhere now).

Thanks for the feedback guys, they never called me back either so I gave up and went elsewhere, not going to fight to give them my money

Re: Blue Bell - Wilmslow
Anyone think it's worth a call to the manager?

Re: Blue Bell - Wilmslow
I buy parts from Bluebell in Wilmslow and always find them reliable and pleasant! Williams anywhere, I won't touch with a 20ft pole...
Have to echo the praise for Darren Wood in Bredbury, if you're after an independant to do anything, you couldn't do better!
