Reviews
What customers say
Customers report working key copies, but some describe scratched paint or rough edges and two encountered payment problems. One customer unintentionally ordered extra copies while struggling to pay, eventually completing the transaction by tapping the card after staff helped. A car-lockout customer says the final bill was much higher than the technician's repeated quote.

These people will scam you. My son locked his keys in his car and called them for assistance. The tech quoted a $35 call out charge plus $40 labour which seemed reasonable so he went ahead. He asked again when they got to the car and they quoted the same. It took them less than two minutes to retrieve the car and they handed him a bill for $350, which he felt he needed to pay. If you live in Durham Ontario then please take note.

While I like the concept of making a key this way, I had trouble (twice) completing my orders. I ended up with three keys the first time and four keys the second time, more than required, before I was able to pay and leave. It does not indicate that you can tap the card and it wouldn’t let me swipe mine. Finally got some help from a Walmart employee. The tap worked fine. The first time , the Walmart supervisor couldn’t even help me but I finally I got out of it.
