Repair of broken Mokka Remote key

When the buttons on my Mokka remote control collapsed, I ordered a replacement unit, only to discover that my original had been glued together.

After struggling to open it, on transfer to the new case, the unit failed to work.

I obtained quotes from other car key engineers, who wanted to charge me the exorbitant fee of £180 to attend and replace.

I then saw the website for Remote Key Repairs, with a fixed fee of £59.99 for my model, refundable if it couldn't be repaired, together with the vast array of 5* reviews on Trustpilot.

So I placed my order, sent off my key on the Thursday and by Tuesday it was back - fully functional once again.

Don't let comments about limited communication put you off.

The turnaround over a weekend was superb, the key has worked perfectly every time and you get an email from Royal Mail notifying you that your key is on its way back to you.

A genuine 5 STAR service in every way.

Thank You.

Good Company

Very easy to deal with, clear and concise information. Key fob was returned very quickly. Hopefully my issue is sorted but I won't know for a little while as the battery was draining very fast with no warning. I would definitely recommend the company and if the issue is resolved I will send them the other key fob.

The button on my Astra for unlocking…

The button on my Astra for unlocking had come away so decided to change the case, I damaged the inside of the key trying to get the case off whilst chipping away at it because it was glued tightly shut, the button covering had split and the doors wouldn’t open with remote, and the alarm stopped working, so found this company online, sent key fob and got it back in less than a week.
Now works as if it’s brand new, excellent service.
