I have used Safelite on several occasions, but this will absolutely be my last time. From the very first time contacting your customer service department to finally getting to my appointment, it has been an absolute nightmare! First, the agent did not listen and continued reading from their script. Assumed that the install location was performing the installation, I was literally scheduling Safelite to perform the installation. Wasted over 30 minutes on hold contacting the detail shop trying to confirm they were installing the glass. Absolutely confusing to the detailer as I previously contacted them with the plan for an installer meeting them to have everything done at the same location by Safelite and the shop. Zero listening, comprehending, and continuing her agenda as she thought the scenario was playing out. After I had to cut her off to clarify, she stated that is a much easier process and that she didn't have to reach out to the shop. I know this! I have several windshields replaced and never had them reach out to the location where the vehicle was going to be physically. Secondly, scheduled my appointment before getting everything approved through insurance but telling me that it was approved. The installer showed up and proceeded to tell me that they couldn't install due to the "aftermarket lift." It is a stock vehicle. Then tried to tell me that it was not stock. Borderline combative... Right before he began the install, he informed me that the price was going to be $601.00. I was guaranteed due to having Florida full coverage, it was a ZERO deductible. I refused to pay and contacted customer service where they confirmed at first that it was approved for OEM glass, but once I told her that I was putting her on speaker with the installer, the tone changed and now it was not approved. He packed up the glass and left. Mind you, this wasted 2 hours of my day, delayed the vehicle being detailed, as well as not allowing my tint shop to complete their work before a scheduled trip next week. I was told that they could fit me into one of two available appointments the following day, I had no other choice. Keep in mind that it is still "not approved." Approximately an hour later I received a notification that my appointment was over an hour from the agreed upon location. Of course this was after hours... First thing, the following morning, before I was able to call the local office, they reached out to me to confirm my appointment. After a brief conversation, I received another text with the correct location. Now that I had arrived at my appointment, I was greeted by a nice and pleasant receptionist, (the only individual) that showed empathy and understanding for my debacle. Immediately after that, a tech came in and started the whole "not a stock height vehicle might not calibrate correctly!" Each and every employee has either led me down a rabbit hole, did not listen and assumed they knew what I was going to say, lied, withheld the truth, was untrained, condescending, or plain out did not care. This experience has left me despising the brand Safelite and will go ANYWHERE other than Safelite for my fleet, my personal vehicles, and anyone that might mention Safelite in the future. I will be leaving a review on every possible platform that I can after these -10 experiences over the past 4 days; wasted over 9 hours, 115 miles, and $50 in fuel combined. Get it together.
