24-7 Complete Locksmith Service

The worst service you can get. First, we talked on the phone and they said $ 29 and when they arrived they ask $ 120 for just simple lock (it took 2 min to open) !

Did the job something I could’ve done with a wire hanger… 178 dollars to flick a switch… over priced charged 30 for the tools the used and another 135 for the type of lock it was and 14 for services call… really wtf is this I’m better off bending my own door and opening my self money suckers… don’t use them look for someone else they rob you… so KEEP looking

Found this company online. Ad stated $ 29, even on weekends (no fine print). Our renters had locked themselves out & we called these guys without first checking reviews, which I now regret, as they charged $ 144 for unlocking one lock. I called to question the charge & got hung up on. Poor customer service & false advertising. I gave 2 stars due to the fact they arrived in the time frame quoted & easily unlocked the door.

I would give it negative stars if I could. This is a total scam and rip off! I wish I would have seen these reviews before I called but they are just taking advantage of someone’s desperate situation. I locked my keys in my car and they had to come out and unlock it. Online it said that it would only be $ 14 to do it but the guy charged me $ 239 and he didn’t tell me that until it was too late so I had no choice. He said that the $ 14 was just for them to come out and $ 195 for the type of car I drive? What? It’s a freaking car! That’s more then I paid to license and insure the thing. I’ve had to use locksmiths in the past for that and the most I have ever paid was $ 65 this company should not be allowed to stay a business.

Here is the update about these bloodsuckers, after disputing the charges with my credit card company they had the balls to send in fake documents to claim that I was lying about the charges. So I provided my credit card company with all the information I can gather on them including BBB’s report on them, all the print out of their website which says nothing about their cancelation policy, and all the negative review on them. Needless to say the credit card company immediately credit back all my money. If you have been cheated by them make sure you fight till the end.

Don’t ever call this company! The customer service was good, and the locksmith was knowlegeable and fast. But, I got slapped with a 195 $ charge for 30 seconds of service. Rip off!!! What a scam!

They are bunch of crooks…
If you lock yourself out of the car do not call this company they’ll charge you double what they quoted. but over the phone they tell you $ 6 and up. They do this every day and they don’t know how much it will cost untill they get there, it’s silly. The guy came hey small airbag between the door and just unlocked in five second and charged me$ 130. Thats pretty stiff

RIP OFF! Do NOT under any circumstances use these people. Will tell you over the phone a price then come and add $ 100. Complete theives! Stay away.

SCAM!!! Price more than doubled from estimate over the phone. DO NOT USE!!! After waiting nearly 40 minutes outside with two small children the «locksmith» arrived – no company car (he couldn’t even tell me the name of the company!!! – he said he was just a contractor working for several companies). Well, we paid $ 100 for one deadbolt lock to be removed! RUN from these guys!!!

It felt like highway robbery and after being $ 100 lighter I was finally in my house. Breaking a window pane is $ 20 and is something that in retrospect seems like a better idea.
What a way to get fleeced for a 10 second screwdriver smash.
*Also if your smart don’t pay cash so you can just charge back these scammers on your credit card, these guys charge from $ 60-​$ 500 depending on how much they can hustle you
— high pressure tactics
— ask you to pay cash or go to atm
— overquote as soon as they arrive after promising $ 34.95 and up initially
— didn’t even ask for ID or proof I lived there
— said the simple qwikset lock was an «advanced» lock which normally would cost $ 189 and up to open
ISRAELI MAFIA RUN SCAM AVOID
Avoid these guys… they’re on NBC Dateline as a scam for a reason. They pretend to be a local locksmith company when in actuality they’re a nation wide scam group with contractors. I mean just look at their generic website it shows that they exist in Tempe but if you look through their locations they have over 100 cities listed.
Check the first 20 ad links for any locksmith related keyword on google– chances are you’ll be referred to one of these affiliated sites that this one company creates.

Update: Called and it turns out that this IS the same company. So they’re overpriced AND bullies. Never again.

I plan on speaking with both the police department as well as the Attorney General about my most recent experience with ²⁴⁄₇. My son locked himself in his bedroom so I called 4 companies to see who could come out immediately before I called the fire dept. 24 – 7 quoted a 15 time frame. About 30 min later I called the «technician» to find out what his location was and in a slurred speech he stated he was 6 miles away. He was rude and very annoyed by my call. I was at his mercy to have him unlock the door so I was kindly asked him to let me know if he has any trouble finding my home. 20 minutes later I called back and he wouldn’t answer. I called the company back and the dispatch (female) told me that she would call him and call me back. She called me back about 7 min later and stated that he was pulling up now. I was relieved and ran outside. Nobody was there. I called her back about 5 minutes later and she said she would call me back. I never got a call back. It was now 1 hour and 20 minutes from a 15 min quote. She stated that she could not reach the technician and that I should call someone else. I was extremely disapointed and now needed to call the police. I called the police and explained the situation, they were very surprised by the situation and the fact that the technician was now MIA. The fire dept and police dept came out and fortunately took care of it. About 10 minutes later I received a phone call from the dispatch at 24 – 7 locksmith stating that the techinician is not someone that actually works for them however it is a friend of one of their employees and that he had been pulled over and detained by an officer. This is completely UNACCEPTABLE! Not only was this individual pulled over and detained for a good reason however they are sending someone into my home that is NOT an employee? Fortunately we have family in law enforcement and surveillance in our home otherwise I would feel very unsafe! I have asked for a call from the owner and never heard back. I will report this becuase this is NOT OK!

TOTAL rip off. I lost the key to my bike U-​lock, and it was locked through the wheel and the frame. Called these guys because they were close, and they told me it would be $ 40. I asked if they took credit, and they said yes (what they didn’t mention was that they charge extra 10% to process the credit card). Half an hour later, two teenage kids show up, one of them seemingly stoned. They said it would be about $ 80 to remove the U-​lock, because they may need to grind it off. At this point, it was getting a bit pricey, but I really needed my bike, so I said go for it. One of the kids pulled out a set of lock picks, stuck one in the mechanism, and before he could even get the second one in, it fell open. I asked him if he was REALLY going to charge me $ 80 for that, and he said yes, because it’s based on the type of lock, and they’re usually more difficult. I resigned myself to it, and when he handed me the receipt, it was for ONE HUNDRED FORTY-​FIVE DOLLARS.
The cost breakdown:
-$ 40 JUST TO COME OUT
-$ 90 for the «difficult» lock removal
-$ 15 service charge to process my credit card.
If that isn’t extortion, I don’t know what is. Don’t believe any quote they give you, it will at least double. If I could give negative stars, I would.

They wanted to charge me $ 195 to pick a lock — eventually they went down to $ 175 after letting them know there was no way I would pay that. They said the Service charge is still $ 35 — after it looked like I was going to just pay the $ 35 they came up with a 10% discount — it took them 5 minutes to open the lock — the price should be around $ 100 tops –These guys come across so greedy that they don’t think about how word of mouth can make a small company or break it.

Do not use them! These guys are not a legitimate locksmith company. They have a BBB rating of F for a good reason. Google «locksmith scam» and you will find this company satisfies every characteristic of a locksmith scam. They answer the phone with «locksmith» not the name of their company. They quote a low price over the phone then jack it up when they show up. They don’t show up in a company vehicle. They want you to pay in cash.
I was charged almost $ 200 for a home lockout. After I paid, I felt uncomfortable paying that so I did some Googling and found references to locksmith scams. I found a few local locksmith companies that have A ratings with the BBB and called them. I was told the work should have cost $ 70-​$ 80.

called this company due to Unilocal reviews after another company scheduled an appointment with me and did not show or call. Agreed with Chuck on the sticker shock — $ 195 out the door to change a security lock on a mailbox — but I also know that locksmiths kinda have you by the nether regions in terms of they have the way into the places you obviously can’t get into. So the guy who came was knowledgeable and friendly, but I think he got insulted when I asked about his accent and he said born in Texas. ha. Oh well, I can now get my mail, and I got three copies of the key so I’m *really* an idiot if I need to call the locksmith again.

Other than some sticker shock I was pretty happy with the quick service and 3 minute lock pick job. There was no friendly customer service tho… which between that and the sticker shock drove the 3-​rating… If the guy was more friendly it could have EASILY been a 4.
EDIT: 2 star… I’m still bitter about the big cost… I know I got hustled… :/​
So, I locked myself out of my bedroom. I was in a rush and wasn’t thinking… I have a lock on my bedroom door because I rent the house and have a roommate with kids over here 50% of the time… nuff said. I originally bought a good lock for the room but on further thought (and being told flat out by the tech), a cheaper door lock will do the same thing as the nicer lock. All a lock does is keep honest people honest anyways…
SO… because I had a 5-​pin lock it cost more than a typical 3-​pin interior door lock… ugh — but it took the guy the same amount of time?
Here’s how it goes down:
— Called… guy said ETA 30min with $ 35 trip charge and the tech would price it on-​site (called a few places and they all said the same thing so)
— his tech called to verify address… showed up on time
— walked in with a typical toolbox. recognized it immediately as a 5-​pin lock and said $ 120 — OUCH…
— I signed the invoice (which had «RCA Locksmith» on the invoice instead of 24 – 7 Complete but… okay).
— Guy grabs a tensioner and a pick… shakes it around a bit… grabs another pick… shakes it around a bit… BAM… lock compromised and door opens.
— Tells me I shouldn’t have bought the better lock… (yeah i get it now)
— Tells me to keep a backup key hidden somewhere (yup, check)
— Writes invoice, adds tax… $ 167 bux… CASH ONLY…
— Says can follow me to ATM… okay… so he follows me to atm and do the money deal, get receipt and done
Moral of the story…
1. dont lock your fucking keys in your room… or car etc
2. keep a backup well hidden (problem is what people think is hidden isn’t)
3. become a locksmith… because that’s basically $ 2000/​hour and I could totally do that as a sidejob… I almost had it picked with a bobby pin and a clothespin as a tensioner…
In the long run… I feel like an idiot because I locked myself out, which I never do but F… It’s still (slightly) cheaper than kicking the door in… replacing the door and trim and lock and all the maintenance of sanding, shimming, painting etc… time = money

They service the entire valley, it’s not just Tempe. They sent this really nice guy to fix the lock on my trunk. Not only did he have the right part on him, he did all the work fairly quickly and really didn’t charge too much. He also gave me some tips on signs people are trying to steal your tires (like trying to break into your trunk). Decent people.
