Once the operation executive confirms the request and understands the car issue, he sends a driver to pick up the car from the customer location to a suitable vendor partner. Following job estimation and approval from the customer, work starts and images and videos of the ongoing work are shared with the customer. On completion, bill is shared by email and the customer has the option to pay online. Once the payment is made, the assigned driver delivers the car back to the customer. |
