Way too expensive for one Aftermarket key fob that was not cut and key fobs cost $24 for two on Amazon reprogram in it and cutting it should not have caused $520! Yes, it was at night and yes, it Mobile service, But it’s an aftermarket key fob that is not cut. This was grossly overpriced.

Eran saved the day on a Sunday night. I superlocked the key inside my Land Rover discovery 2. That means you can’t just pull the door latch, you have to use the key to disarm the security system. Eran took a picture of the key I locked inside and then figured out the dimensions from there.

It took about an hour and a half from the time I called to the time Eran completed the work. He was able to get me a complete new key for my remote start car and did it efficiently. Definitely recommend.

I am so pleased with this company! I needed an emergency locksmith help on a Sunday afternoon, which made me think I would be stranded until the next week. I was totally wrong! The dispatcher got me connected with my mechanic, Jacob, immediately. Jacob was able to meet me at my car within 20 minutes of talking to him that same Sunday! He diagnosed my car issue quickly and was very transparent about cost and time. Not only did he work quickly to order my part, but he's stayed in contact with me every step of the way. Jacob was extremely punctual to our final appointment and fixed my car within 30 minutes of arrival. His professionalism, expertise, and genuine kindness made the entire ordeal with my car much less stressful. If you ever need a mobile mechanic or emergency locksmith services, this is the company to go to and Jacob is the man to do the job!

Response from the owner · a week ago

Hello Quija, we take customer feedback very seriously, which is why we were concerned to see your review. After carefully checking our customer records and recent transactions, we have been unable to find any service or payment matching the $520 charge you described, nor do we have a customer under your name. We believe there may have been a mix-up with another locksmith company, as this transaction does not appear in our records. We also do not have a fixed $520 charge for the service you described, as pricing depends on the vehicle, key type, and work required. We kindly ask that you contact our office directly so we can verify the details and clear up any misunderstanding. If this service was provided by another company, we would sincerely appreciate you updating or removing the review, as reviews have a significant impact on small businesses. Thank you for your understanding. ASAP Locksmiths & Security Services
