Locks-Unlock / 24-Hour Locksmith Services Anmeldelser 

Scam. Advised £49 to open door, call out free. Turned up, didn't attempt to open lock, said letter box was in wrong place to hook the lock. Said lock needed drilling and replacement fitted would be £220 (it was a simple Yale lock), we said forget it, the price then came down to £160, we still said no and was told there was a £59 call out fee. We told locksmith to send invoice as money inside house. He then miraculously open the door with a bendy card in about 15s. Paid £50 cash to get rid of him. DO NOT USE!!

While the locksmith Micheal was professional this was very expensive call out. £230 to open the door and another £299 to replace the lock for a Schlosser new security cylinders. However, searching on line the Schlosser lock costs no more than £60 and yet I have been charged £299. Being a vulnerable person I had no choice but to pay the overall total price of £578 and I believe this is an excessive amount and I wouldn’t recommend this business to a friend as there are many other companies just as qualified and professional who don’t charge such a high rate.

Like many reviews on here, was quoted £49 to come out. Friendly enough and explained he would need to drill the lock and replace it, gave us 3 options (varying prices) for new locks. On completion he charged the £49 call out plus 99 to gain entry to the house plus 89 for a lock I've seen online for 15. Awful service and wouldn't recommend at a.

Was quoted £39 on the phone, and within 20mins.
3 hours later some teenager turns up in his hatchback, wiggled a pick in the lock for all of 5 seconds and tells me it needs to be drilled out and replaced for £129 charge. i agreed.
he proceeds to drill it out and returns to his car then returns with an invoice for £200 and tells me he doesn't have a replacement lock.
I asked to see his license that he could not produce, I phoned the companies office and told them I'm not paying till the police arrive and he threatened to charge me £200 an hour for holding his "locksmith".

ended up paying him £100 to get off my property.
complete scam, the remains of the lock revealed no security or hardened steel pins.

avoid at all costs, get a MLA approved locksmith

Thank you Allan
You did an amazing job.
I needed a lock for my bedroom and I called these guys.
Allan arrived shortly after my call. From the start he know exactly what the problem was, like a pro.
Using the right tools, he made perfect cuts for the new lock. If you need high quality services, Allan is the one.
Many thanks Allan.

AVOID AT ALL COST LIARS AND MONEY MAKERS !!

DISGUSTING SERVICE AVOID AT ALL COSTS

So much for 20 minute service !!!
Rang in the morning was told a locksmith would contact me, 2 hours later a call claiming would be with me in 30 - 45 minutes.......... never turned up
Another call one hour later to ask did I still need locksmith would be there in 20 mins..........never turned up.
I phoned and he claimed he had been at the door - this is not possible I have a very noisy dog. He then asked for the postcode as he didn't have it. Funny that must of guessed which door to be at !
Doesn't even rate one star but had to put something to leave a review
DON'T BOTHER WITH THIS BUNCH OF LIARS

Avoid at all costs - pressure selling tactics and inflated prices. Disgraceful, dishonest business.

Called Locks Unlocked 24 hours at 7pm to go and help my nephew get in his house as he had locked his keys in his car. Found them on the Internet and called them. Your calls are actually diverted abroad a Polish man answered and said it would be £49.00 and if its tricky then there would be an additional charge but would be there within 30mins. A Polish man arrived and straight away said it will be £130.00 didn't attempt to do anything but said he would drill the lock out. I telephoned the office again only to speak to a Polish lady who said its a £49.00 call out fee then anything else is extra I corrected her as the advert says No call out fee and how the hell can the engineer say £130.00 without even looking at it!!!... They are con artist and thrive on people who are desperate DO NOT USE SCAMERS!!

Disgusting experience. Was locked out my house and rang up for help, told them my daughter was coming home because I had someone to watch her while I couldn't get in, quoted me £39 for a simple job, and £49 for a harder job. The boy came out, stinking of weed, slid a piece of card through my door to try unlock it and told me it's not gonna work and I have to pay £89 to get it fixed. I rang up the office and was absolutely shouted out, to near tears, was told I'm going to get the man to loose his job because I was lying about what he quoted me to come of and the boy stood next to me laughing saying this has happened before and he knows I was quoted £39, and picked up his bag and left me outside.

Called this company as I managed to leave the key on the inside of the door. Locksmith turned up promptly within 30 minutes. I am not surprised! Money for old rope. Locksmith made no attempt to open the lock and said would have to drill the lock, as the key was on the inside. Apparently not always the case, so I have now read, but I guess the they prey on your lack of knowledge. So £269.00 later for about half hours work and a lock which was the middle out of 3 choices. Was probably the cheapest option how would I know the difference . The worst thing to follow, they used an engineer from AM Locksmith Ltd which as it turns out have been on rogue traders!

Would give this place a zero star if I could. Absolute scammers, told us free quotation depending on when he looked at the lock labour 49 and 20 upwards for the lock. When he came out tried to charge me £187 for an alleyway door lock! I told him no and he got very aggressive with my partner and told him he would need to pay £49 for the call out which we were told was free, my partner challenged this and rang up and the man was aggressive on the phone and hung up. The other guy then stormed out my house and slammed my front door as hard as he could when I had a 4 month baby in my arms that almost jumped out of her skin! AVOID!!!!

£49 call out charge which I was told was the price to fix the lock without parts. Then asked for almost another £500. Ended up paying the £49 and getting out another locksmith. Two guys turned up in an old fiesta. Extremely poor and an absolute scam. The website also suggests they are either 4.5 or 5 stars, however every site rates them extremely low.

Double the price advised!!
Don't use

Very similar experience to many other customers on here.
Advertised as £39 and when he arrived he charged me £98 and that was before the door was fixed. Had to come two days later with new strip and charged nearly £300 so that’s nearly £400 out of pocket.
Be wary of this company.

Like many others on here I should have checked reviews before booking them. BUYER BEWARE!

Told £49 now £180 out of pocket. Terrible immoral company. Use check-a-trade and avoid scams like these guys. Wish zero stars was an option.

Absolutely awful!! Unfortunately I didn’t see the reviews until after. When you’re locked out, you don’t really have the luxury of finding reviews. Absolutely horrific experience- on phone was told 20min and £49 for everything. Man arrived an hour late and £124 later... absolutely disgusting! Please avoid them at all costs!

TOTALLY DISHONEST COMPANY
I had a problem with my front door lock not working properly. Found Locks-Unlock on the internet advertising with a £39 callout
Was advised over the phone that it would cost callout charge, if new lock was required cost would be from £25 Upwards depending on the lock. Fitting to be included in callout charge.
He arrived tried to remove lock with a large impact screw driver, damaged screw and had to drill it out.
Fitted new lock barrel without telling me the cost and told me the total cost was £174
I asked him to justify, he said it was £49 Callout, plus £125 for the lock.
He had finished within 15 minutes of arrival.
I researched the lock cost afterwards and found them easily available at DIY shops for less than £20.

I will report them to trading standards

Would give zero stars if possible. Came out, drilled a hole in the door without checking first, pulled the handle off the door, charged 50quid and left it like that. Absolute crooks. AVOID!!!!

£387 after an initial £109 quote!! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY - SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM
