I cannot say enough about my customer experience with your company. Exceptional in every possible way. I will make recommendations at every opportunity.

Exceptional customer touchpoints, all along the way.

Customer Service

Maria was my representative, and I felt as though I had someone holding my hand the whole way through. She was warm, friendly, provided intricate details on the process ahead, kept me well-informed throughout the timeframe with updates and outlined return expectations with precision. What an exceptional representative you have found in her. Both personable and knowledgeable, Maria represented the best of Better Collision during my entire experience with your company.

My Experience

There were delays associated with my repair which were outside the control of the repair team, I understand that. However, after initial evaluation, there should have been an update to me on what needed to be done. If I had known how extensive the repairs would be, I would've held off as the vehicle was perfectly drive able. Instead, it took way longer than expected, and I ended up moving out of state before repairs were completed. I actually had to fly back to Charleston from Ohio, just to pick up my car and drive it back to Ohio, which was extremely inconvenient and expensive.

There were unexpected delays due to missing parts which I understand. However, I was not fully informed of all of the repairs necessary at initial evaluation. I had initially thought that the hull of my car just had a bump due to a very minor accident, but then I eventually found out the entire internal frame needed to be replaced? This did not make sense to me, but regardless this is something that should have been communicated to me before it happened, not 6 weeks into the repair. I actually had to move out of state, and the long repair time combined with delays ended up meaning I was not able to take my car with my on my move. I ended up having to fly back and drive over to Cincinnati which incurred significant costs in money and time.

Customer Service

It started with the gal at front desk insisting our car was not scheduled. Someone finally corrected her. I received occasional updates that proved to be worthless and not accurate. What was said did not happen, my car did not progress as stated. I was told 2 1/2 weeks, it ended up being 3 1/2 weeks. I was told it would not be ready on a Friday but most definitely on Monday. It was not ready until Thursday. Lame excuses that the person who was supposed to complete next step, didn't show up. Is that really how you do business? I feel like this company takes advantage of the customer, and they don't really care if you're upset. That being without your car is not a big deal to them.

Can’t say enough great things about you all! Maria was amazing to work with, and I loved that she kept me up-to-date on what was going on. I was very surprised at how fast my car was ready as well! Would definitely recommend you all

I appreciate the piece I pointed out at pick up has been ordered. There is also some loose trim, part of the bumper doesn't appear aligned and several areas under the car aren't secured. I have pictures and video I can share. I don't think they are difficult fixes- hopefully can just be realigned when I come back for the other part.

I am still waiting on one part to be ordered so it can be installed because they put a damaged piece back on it. I also looked and it appears some other adjustments needs to be made when I go back. I shared that info With them in a survey also but haven't heard from anyone. I have pictures and video to show what is still concerning. I put a 5 for now because things aren't yet resolved But hope it will be higher once they finalize everything.
