Given regular updates
27 February 2025
Great communication. All staff encountered were professional and friendly. Morgan provided regular updates and promptly responded to queries.
25 February 2025
The service was completed by mid-day. However the MOT then somehow managed to take until 5pm and I even had to ask them not to wash the car in order to get home in time.
25 February 2025
Great and cheaper than quoted. Only slight issue for me is how it took until 1pm to get my car in for service after bringing it in at 8am as asked, would be great to have slightly more accurate time estimates!
25 February 2025
Key area addressed promptly. Comments above about car washing are the only feedback.
25 February 2025
See above
24 February 2025
Couldn't have dealt with anything better.

The video of my car's free health check was very poor due to a great deal of background noise making it extremely difficult to make out what the mechanic was saying. I advised Holly who was handling my booking that day and she assured me all was fine

Realy good service
19 February 2025
Had 2 contacts, thus far. Both excellent. Highly commend Morgan Timmins.
18 February 2025
Service advisor, Helen Briggs, was excellent. Fault was diagnosed as requiring reprogramming but that failed to cire the issue. A new part was required to be ordered and fitted which meant leaving the car at Eastern over the weekend.
18 February 2025
Easy to get booking and very friendly staff. Helen Briggs is just great.
18 February 2025
Thé service experience was wonderful
17 February 2025
all done as arrnaged
17 February 2025
I needed a new tyre and dealership were great at sorting with my lease company
15 February 2025
Two issues stopped me giving a higher score, both relating to attention to detail. First issue was the engine bay not being cleaned of a coolant spill during the EGR recall process, second was wrong mileage on the invoice by some 60K miles!
14 February 2025
Initially, I felt the service poor, with sales personnel changing without notice and 3 delays in the car being handed over. Communication with sales people was patchy. However, my frustrations were eventually addressed in a goodwill gesture.
13 February 2025
Work carried out efficiently and quickly and to my surprise price for the tyres was not as expensive as i thought.
13 February 2025
Not informed or kept up to date with progress on recall fix, no offer of refreshments, vacuum and internal clean extremely poor, felt and was ignored. Will probably change garage in future.
12 February 2025
Morgan, in collaboration with the warranty manager and technicians overcame many difficulties including non-availability of parts due to age of vehicle.
11 February 2025
Rating down to problems still showing with Drivetrain warning light seemingly sorted and after drive home from garage the Engine Warning Light also illuminated!
11 February 2025
Staff and service at Eastern BMW are unfailingly polite and helpful.
10 February 2025
Very happy with all round experience

I needed help in a hurry and got it.
09 February 2025
In comparison with other big companies BMW win hands down on treatment of customers. The girls were all lovely and accommodating. I misread how payment should be made there was no problem and i was not made to feel foolish. Very refreshing and kind.
08 February 2025
Kept informed.ed of car status throughout day. On collection Customer service excellent.
08 February 2025

All work completed within time frame
04 February 2025
Couldn't fault anything
04 February 2025
Kept up to date,
04 February 2025
Well, I'm not a car mechanic, but every time I've gotten my Baby X back from repairs, I've never had to return the next day shouting at anyone! Considering my sort-fused-Mediterranean-temperament, that's quite an accomplishment and a win in my book!
03 February 2025
Almost completely, on this occasion the problem was not rectified so I will now have to book the car back in for the third time. I accept these things happen!
03 February 2025
Very professional staff from reception to servicing. Looked after me very well, great communication keeping me up to date and the coffee was excellent ??
03 February 2025
Poor communication from dealer no phone calls just the odd text message were they didn't even identify who was sending the message.
03 February 2025
They let you know what is happening we ith your car.
01 February 2025
Great communication on MoT progress.
01 February 2025
Oil and filter plus microfilter service required, booked in at 9.30am didn't get my car back till mid afternoon which I thought was a bit too long a wait for a small service other than that very satisfied.
01 February 2025
Great service, shown great empathy for my situation. Problem resolved quickly with great communication. Can't thank them enough. Morgan was the best servicing rep I have dealt with over many dealerships.
19 April 2025
Daniel was excellent in all aspects of customer service . Andrew the tech genius was very knowledgeable and easy to work with and very patient ??
