Halfords Mobile Expert Recenzje 

Mobile tyre fitting, good price, on the day I could see where my booking was in the queue, chap that fitted tyre friendly and chatty and job done in about 15 minutes. Very please and would recommend.

Great service. Polite and careful fitter that looked after my wheels, great comms and a great price on the tyres. Also turned up 9am Monday after I booked on Sunday.

Not sure what all the negative reviews are about.

I ordered 4 new tyres and booked an 8-12 delivery slot. The driver arrived after 12 - yet I still got charged for the slot. After this 4 plus hour wait, their equipment on the van was faulty and they were unable to complete the job. The mechanic admitted that they have equipment issues. I got one tyre fitted out of 4. I was told to ring customer services and rebook, they cut me off when trying to raise my concerns and they were unhelpful in rebooking. Suggesting a 72 hour wait before they could return. When I eventually got the tyres replaced by another provider, the tyres were also significantly cheaper for identical tyres. Never again.

Home Dash Cam Fitting Cancelled however my 1 star has now changed to a 5 star review. I received great service after the initial cancellation. The Peterborough Hub rebooked me in with a date convenient for me. Ben, the technician was great on the day and Sibo from customer service called me to make sure I was happy.

Booked to have a replacement tyre at home. Didn’t show up on selected date, no communication. Agreed a different date then didn’t turn up. Now customer services have told me that the tyre I want is not in stock. Had to chose a different tyre.

I can not say enough about how AWFUL Halfords' mobile fitting service is! Please please never use them - they are total crooks. We booked in over a week in advance to have all four tyres replaced, including a flat meaning the car was un-driveable. We had a four-hour window and they still managed to be late - despite the fact we had spent well over £1000, all paid in advance. And the worst part - on arrival the technician admitted his machine on his van was faulty and he might not be able to complete the job. Sure enough - he managed to replace only one tyre before the machine packed up and off he went!! Leaving us high and dry. The onus was placed on us to call customer service , no apologies or attempts by Halfords to rectify the situation. When I did call them they were totally unhelped. These people don't even deserve their 2 star rating. They are atrocious. GO anywhere else, not to Halfords!!!

If I could give zero stars, I would. Do not use Halfords Mobile Tyre Fitting. What should have been a simple call-out has turned into a dangerous and incredibly stressful ordeal.

First, the fitter completely ripped me off. I had a screw dead-center in my tyre, clearly in the repairable zone. Instead of offering a standard repair, he went straight to replacing it. He actually had the audacity to tell me after he had fitted the new tyre that the old one could have easily been repaired! Halfords has a duty of care to indicate if a cheaper repair is possible before pushing a replacement. This is sheer predatory sales practice.

But it gets infinitely worse. The fitter actually LEFT AN AXLE STAND completely wedged underneath my car when he finished. Unaware of his staggering incompetence, I attempted to drive the car later that night. I immediately heard a horrific crunching sound, and the heavy metal stand is now severely wedged beneath my vehicle.

Because my car is an EV, the battery casing and soleplate are right where that stand is impacting. This poses a massive safety hazard and a huge financial risk, particularly as this is a leased vehicle. My car is now completely undrivable.

I am currently battling with them to get an emergency, priority call-out (from a different technician!) to safely remove the equipment, assess my EV battery for structural damage, and accept full liability for their negligence. Customer service have no means of escalating anything, only sending emails either to the Hub which take 48 hours to be actioned or escalating a complaint that takes 7-10 days to be read. What a disgraceful approach to customer care.

Save your money, protect your car, and go anywhere else.

Wrong battery fitted plastic covers not put back correctly
Took ages to get through on the phone to get this sorted
Steer well clear of this service obviously not training the fitters correctly

Ordered 2 new tyres for fitting at home. Order confirmed and paid for. First appointment they sent one wrong tyre, second appointment they had no tyres! Could not reappoint within time needed so cancelled. Customer service very polite but of little use. The whole service is chaotic. Will not use again and would not recommend.

The most awful customer service ever! Waited all day for tyre repair only to see my e. Mail said job was complete…. When I called the tyre hadn’t arrived but the didn’t have the decency to call and let me know… gave me an option to re book 4 days away! Disgusting service do not rely on this service

I booked a mobile fitting for two tyres with Halfords and paid extra for a specific time slot between 12pm and 4pm. After booking, I received an automated confirmation email and text, which was fine.

However, on the day of the appointment, no one turned up. I waited in all afternoon. Because I was expecting the technician, I even had to book an Uber for the school run to pick up my kids and again on the way back, which was both inconvenient and unnecessary in the end.

By 4:30pm, there was still no sign of anyone, so I called customer service to cancel the order. Still no way to track the technician

Overall, it was a very frustrating experience. I won’t be using halfords or Halfords mobile tyre fitting again.

Appalling experience from Halfords mobile fitting, having blown two tyres both left side making my car undriveable, was first advised when the like for like tyre was not available to go with a similar one to be told by the fitter on the day of the appointment it was a run flat and I don’t have run flats so not suitable, first wasted day.

Upon calling their customer service team they apologised for this error and promptly sorted the correct tyre and re booked for two days later, upon the 2 hour time slot that I was charged £15.50 for the fitter sent a text message, didn’t even the courtesy to call to say tyres didn’t make so you’ll need to re book. Upon calling customer service the tyre wasn’t in stock and hadn’t been so should never have been booked, best they could offer was a further booking slot in another two days time but would need to accept an inferior tyre brand.

From a brand known to many households I would expect a better service than this, but wrong advice, booking services they know they cannot fulfil and and all whilst sitting on your money for all this time.

I’ve had two days wasted waiting for them to fit tyres and haven’t and my job is a field based job so has taken my car off the road for a week due to sheer incompetence

I booked a Mobile Tyre Fitting service with Halfords on Tuesday, 2 February 2026, after seeing many positive reviews and trusting them as a leading company in the industry.

The appointment was scheduled for Thursday, 4 February 2026, and I had taken the day off work to stay at home and wait. At 9:01am, I received a call informing me that the technician could not attend because the wrong tyre model had been delivered.

I immediately contacted customer services. Although the advisor was polite and understanding, I was told he could not rebook the service and could only email another department, as no one was answering their phone. I was given a case reference number and told someone would follow up.

Despite explaining how urgent the situation was — this is our only family car used to take our children to and from school — I received no follow-up at all on Thursday, 4 February 2026.

With no update and no alternative offered, I eventually had no choice but to cancel the service and request a refund.

Because we rely entirely on this vehicle, I was forced to arrange an emergency repair service on the same day, which cost £480, far more than expected.

For a company of Halfords’ size and reputation, this lack of reliability and customer follow-up was extremely disappointing. I would think very carefully before using this service again.

I ordered a NextBase dashcam and at home fitting. I supplied my reg number as requested and was told it can be fitted. However the guy that came out said it could not be fitted to the battery system!

I then asked for a fitting refund and was promised I would get this, I also have the invoice that says I will be getting the fitting monies returned but it has not arrived. Maybe taking legal action if the monies does not arrive. Will not use Halford again.

Mobile Experts very helpful after Halfords Garage let and continue to let me a Disabled Customer down, had to call them to replace my battery which was under warranty but as car broke down as The garage claimed they couldn't possibly fit me in while ringing them hands free when my power steering failed while on the M62 on Friday which is near the Anlaby Road branch were it's currently at and was supposed to be seen at 08.00 when it was booked in to be seen,only to be told they would be looking at it at 15.00 today when it was next door at National Tyres yesterday,and was told today it Might be able to be seen on Monday morning I will be housebound for 10 days,
The Mobile Expert Elliot was brilliant and helpful fitting new battery with 5 years warranty,and managed to start the engine but with no power steering stating it may be the belt attached to the Alternator,which was responsible for the battery taken out which was under Warranty failing,he took battery away but added notes to my account which was helpful as when I rang Halfords Customer services they said without the battery physically being able to be taken to the store for the store to examine I could not have a refund under the Warranty, I raised a complaint for very Helpful MJ from Halfords Mobile experts ringing me and telling me he at Mobile experts was refunding me as it was one of in his words "our Battery's, in the mean time my car was seen yesterday by National Tyres confirming what it was but do not do the work held it overnight as manager went home early ,leaving me in Limbo for it to be taken next door to Halfords proper to do Thier own diagnostics and waiting for them to get back to me, long story short If car could have been seen in Any of Halfords Network on Friday this could have been avoided, and I would not be housebound,
If Halfords Garage /National Tyres had part of Halfords Mobile Experts Professionalism ,and care for customers could have been Pro active and avoided the ongoing Stress and Anxiety caused. Big thanks to Elliot,MJ,and Ellie and Alex from National Tyres the Problem lies with Management/ Organisation it seems.

I booked a mobile battery fitting with Halfords and ordered a specific battery through their website. Unfortunately, the battery that was fitted was NOT the one I ordered.

The mobile fitting technician installed a different battery, which immediately caused error messages on my vehicle. To make matters worse, the new battery was not coded to my car, something that is required for this type of vehicle and should be basic knowledge for a professional fitting service.

None of this was explained, checked, or completed at the time of fitting. I was left with warning lights, fault messages, and now the added inconvenience and cost of having the battery correctly coded elsewhere.

When you order a battery through Halfords and pay for a professional mobile fitting service, you expect:
• The correct battery to be supplied
• The installer to understand vehicle requirements
• The job to be completed properly and fully

This was not the case. The experience has left me with zero confidence in Halfords’ mobile fitting service, and I would not recommend it to anyone with a modern vehicle that requires battery coding.

Issue 1. Tyres were fitted over-inflated, one at 55 PSI, the other at 44 PSI; the correct pressure is 33 PSI. Thankfully, my tyre sensor asked me to check the pressure, and I corrected it.
Issue 2. Tyres were not balanced correctly. When driving above 60 MPH on the motorway, the car was shaking. Took it to an independent tyre fitter and they corrected, highlighting the weights were off by a long way.
Issue 3. The complaints line wouldn't connect, the call would end and dial off.
Issue 4. Once I eventually got through, Mo was very helpful and apologetic. He passed to the escalation team, who did nothing for 2 weeks. I had to ring again to follow up.
Issue 5. I never got a call from the ecalation team, just an email saying a £35 refund had been issued and that was that.

This is incompetence from start to finish, incompetence that could have resulted in a serious accident if the overinflated tyres had blown out on the motorway. I'm just fortunate the tyre sensor alerted me. I would not use Halford for this service, I won't be using them full stop going forward. £35 is an insult for this level of incompetence. I paid £310, but I can only imagine a refund at so commonplace they've run out of budget.

I'm 50 and I've never used Trustpilot before but my experience with Halfords has prompted me to sign up for the first time.

Really poor, wish I'd read reviews, Halfords not to be trusted. Things do go wrong occasionally, I'm well used to that, but it's how issues are handled that makes the difference and on that front Halfords are dire.

Needed a new battery for BMW X1, went on the website, put in my registration to select the battery, booked a specific 4 hour slot at an extra £3.50 charge. All was going well, happy with my experience so far.

My Wife actually said to me, "why did you use Halfords?" I said, "because it's really simple, a few clicks and you're done." ... turns out that's not the case.

Technician arrived, spent 15 minutes dismantling bits to get to the battery (BMW don't make it easy), then discovered the battery recommended by the website was too small. Said I'd have to contact contact customer service to re-arrange. Bit irritating as what should have been super convenient and a few clicks now involves a phone call and taking up my time but not the end of the world.

It only got worse, the following morning tried the online chat ... opens 8am. Totally useless and soul destroying, automated responses that don't help, find the option to connect to agent, there is no agent available, tried multiple times through the morning and it states no one is available.

In between I tried the phone. After several attempts worked out how to be put through to an agent, sat on hold several times before just being cut off. All I need to do is speak to someone.

Eventually get through to an agent and by now really not a happy customer (although I'm always polite). They tell me the correct battery costs an extra £20. I asked as a goodwill gesture for all my wasted time that they fund the increase in price. Their system recommended the incorrect battery and I've spent a ridiculous amount of my time trying to make contact about their failure (their site says they will be in touch asap, but that's not true).

I was basically told that their failure is all my fault, it's my responsibility to check that their recommendation is correct, they say it is clearly stated that I have to do that. I've looked since and I still can't find where that's stated so it's not clear at all.

Indeed when I put in the correct battery size a message says "this product is not suitable for your vehicle, to find one that is click here" ... it redirects me to the wrong battery size ... but as far as Halfords are concerned this is ALL my fault and they bear no responsibility and my time has no value as far as Halfords are concerned.

Surely the point of a supposed specialist business it that they know what they're talking about and direct you to the correct products, the car is more than 10 years old it's not like it's a new model.

They wouldn't even refund the additional £3.50 I paid for the booking slot where the installation failed, because it was my fault, but they would do me a slot for the next day for free ... it's free anyway for an anytime slot which I could have gone with.

Beware you can't trust Halfords website recommendations are correct and Halfords abdicate a responsibility to the customer ... surprised they don't ask you to supervise that it's fitted correctly.

Avoid them, I'll use someone local in future who knows what they're doing and you can speak to easily if there's an issue.

Terrible experience, technician cancelled on the day short notice, I had to then wait over an hour to speak to an agent who re booked my new appointment, tried to charge me again the fitting fee. I received no tracking information, new technician arrived, camera description wasn't accurate, tried to get a refund and was refused the fitting fee.

Turned up, broke wing, didn't have correct jack available, claimed it was my fault for having a fully deflated tyre. Rude, nasty, useless.
