I lost my car and house keys on a night out. I called multiple car locksmiths nearby for quotes, and CDS Car Keys had the best price and the quickest call out time. Cameron arrived when he said he would, and did excellent work. He was polite and efficient. (Hopefully I never lose my car keys to the streets of Birmingham again, but if I do, I know who to call.) 10/10 experience! Thank you.

I lost my only car key at work. I contacted AA and Ford, they was expensive and it would take days. Then I contacted CDS Car Keys for a quick quote and I discovered the best price, so I bought two key for the price of one from the main dealer. Cameron came to my workplace and sorted out my problem in 45 min with two original and 12months guaranteed keys. Fantastic communication. 5 stars truly real and very well deserved

I recently lost the only key to my Mercedes C-Class and didn’t have a spare, so I was honestly pretty stressed. I contacted CDS Car Keys, and Cameron came out incredibly quickly and completely put my mind at ease.

He was professional, friendly, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He
got everything sorted in no time at all. On top of that, the price was very reasonable, which I really appreciated given the situation.

I’m genuinely so grateful for the help and couldn’t recommend CDS Car Keys and Cameron highly enough. If you ever find yourself stuck like I was, they’re absolutely the people to call!

CDS Car Keys is a professional car key service that exceeded my expectations. From providing a quote to issuing a new car key, the staff was friendly and had excellent communication skills. They went above and beyond by completing some additional work at no extra cost. This is a rare and exceptional individual who is a true asset to the business.

Contacted for help with my car ignition that had got rainwater in and was getting stiff and clunky. They recommended using GT85 which has worked well. Great advice, thank you. Didn't need to pay someone to do any work thankfully.

I wanted a spare key for my car. Advice was provided about what type of key I would need and a visit to cut the new key was arranged promptly. Good service and price. Significantly cheaper than what a large key cutting chain is offering. Key comes with a good warranty

Cameron provided a excellent and friendly service, he got my Mazda key issue resolved in no time.

Explained the issue over the phone and was confident of what the issue was and how to resolve it.

Came to my house on time, and within 5-10 min got the job done and guaranteed the fix.

Would definitely use him again in the future.

Cameron is a smashing bloke! Fantastic communication, half the price of the main dealer and sorted my spare key the same day. He even disabled the lost key so it couldn’t be used anymore. Couldn’t recommend him enough🤝
