Guest 1footinthegrave Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Just wondered if anyone had any experience of BT fleet service work, my logic being they are more likely to be up to speed with vans than the average garage. Having had a very bad experience with my local "trusted" garage last year, I'm looking for an alternative, so any info appreciated as regards quality of work, pricing etc, ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 i have been using the BT fleet garage in Perth for over ten years. Always had good service for my camper and my family cars. Prices are better than other garages, suggest you look at the website www.btfleet.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1footinthegrave Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Thanks for that, yes I have looked at their site a few days ago, and sent an email inquiry for work I need carrying out, sadly no reply though. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirtle26 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Had our MH MOT and interim service at Sheffield's BT fleet depot end of March after reading about them on forum . £145 total cost. Good service and only 5 min from where we store it. Will certainly use them next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scramblers Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Used them for 8 years, Birmingham and Walsall garages. Experts at all types of vehicles, fully trained mechanics, many with their own motorhomes. Used by AA, Gas Board and many other fleet vehicle operators. Would not consider going anywhere else. In March this year I had a full service and MOT for £208.99. I find it easier to phone their service centre 0800 032 0012. They will ask you for your vehicle details, mileage and the type of service/MOT you require and then quote you a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starvin marvin Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 As a retired BT employee, I use them all the time for servicing, repairs and MOT's and have done since they were privatised. Always get good service and advice with reasonable prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cattwg Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I have used BT Fleet several times over the past few years and would add my good comments regarding their work and attitude. I found them professional and friendly - they were quite prepared to discuss any queries that I had. And they have no need to tout for business.

Guest 1footinthegrave Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Just to thank everyone one again, I will be phoning them to get it booked in at Shrewsbury tomorrow, thanks again, Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod_vw Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I hope that the lads at Shrewsbury MT Workshop looked after you well. I am ex-BT and that is the workshop that looked after my BT van for many years, Please let us know how you were served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JudgeMental Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I called Wimbledon branch yesterday and price OK for an entrim but you have to leave the van with them for the day as chap said the BT fleet vans take priority... This a bit awkward as I thought I would just go into wimbeldon for a few hours and have a look around the shops. May go elsewhere..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard the Natural History Museum is well worth a look, and can easily take up a day ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually arrive about 8am and then go into Birmingham for a spot of breakfast, some shopping and maybe lunch. The workshop text/call me on my mobile to when they have finished. If they know you are waiting they tend to prioritise your job sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 1footinthegrave Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Just an update, telephoned the BT fleet number given on their website on Monday, told would need to fill in an online quote request, duly done, message to say would be communicated to by the end of the next working day, absolutely zilch, left it another day, called the help line, spoke to a bloke that said I was on the system and confirmed they had my correct contact details, said they had and they were waiting to hear back from the workshop, and promised contact yesterday ( Thursday ) today Friday and still bugger all from them. 8-) but the one bright spot was at no time was I put through to Mumbai. So back to the drawing board unless anyone has a recommended garage in the Gwynedd area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
