Reviews of VTNZ Hastings
L.
Little different. Had to wait outside. Lining up outside. The car park is right near where you enter the building. That combined with a line of people waiting outside. Something needs to be sorted there so it's safer for those entering or waiting for whatever reason. Other then that the staff seemed friendly enough. And if you register online...so much faster.
W.
Pity about the general layout, which is a bit confusing. However, very friendly and professional staff made up for that. I had to visit twice (failed wof first time) and the team was coping well with the silly Christmas rush on both days. Thanks for the good advice too which helped me to revisit next day with issues sorted :-)
L.
Was ok. Staff were very friendly
K.
I had to renew my license after 59 years driving. It was so good and fast ,the young lady was so helpful thanks
E.
The guy who did the actual WOF was awesome. Everyone else seemed sour and like they didn't want to be there. They got the job done but customer service could improve by miles
a.
Guys on the floor are fair and approachable and the office staff are always helpful. Thank to Andre and Swiss for getting our unit sorted yesterday
F.
Professional, good all round decent blokes ( even thou they failed my car on the brakes!)
M.
Mrs. Maree deserves a good recognition.. One of the finest driving instructors, knows to handle each and every person to person.
She helped me to get my full License and never felt like taking a test it was like a cool ride.
J.
Was a hassle free encounter. Fleur served me and was very efficient. Once the car dealership had finally done their bit it was easy
F.
It was great for me, as I timed when there was open window.
I also prepared my application in advance by going online and downloading what I needed.
The only issue with VTNZ , is that most applications require a lot of paperwork by the service people behind desks.
It takes a long time and if there is a queue then you better be prepared to be patient
And I won't go in about getting your car tested and warranted.
Unless you have a well serviced new car don't go there.....
M.
Mrs. Maree received me with a positive smile, keept my nerves low, asking me about any language issue and guided me to stay calm like a psychiatrist to do the test properly. She is extremely professional and has excellent customer service. She is the best VTNZ instructor NZ. I recommend her for award for excellent customer service.
I passed my full License after 3 tests in various centers.All tests i failed due to nervesnousness.
Please ignore rumors saying that it's lowest pass rate in NZ.
They are best in NZ and Mrs. Maree deserves a Noble Price for excellent customer service

Looooonnnnnnnggggg wait, with 4 people in front, 2 skipped the queue for wof but once in very fast service for what I needed which was a reprint ...
G.
Great service. Thank you
C.
Good place to get your warrant of fitness done. There was only one car ahead of me. Didn't take much time
C.
Took a long time waiting, they did not explain their process. Did not take the car service option, it doesn't include oil change. $67 for a WOF isn't cheap either. They are convenient location and you don't have to book, but disappointing compared with the smiling people on their TV ad. Their water machine was empty and they only sell energy drinks. Doesn't seem to be a customer toilet.
r.
Staff were friendly and helpful
T.
I had to go to VTNZ Hastings to renew my license, being 64 I was a bit nervous although I've driven for over 40 years, but they made me feel very welcome & I had no problems with anything. Thanks so much VTNZ 👍🙂
L.
I've always found the men there very pleasant and polite; however whilst waiting in the reception area one of the ladies behind the counter was quite rude and abrupt to someone on the phone who had rung to enquire about busy/quiet times.
S.
Very efficient and friendly service. The team always help where possible. AA+. Well done to a professional team
J.
Office staff are always a bit scarce, lucky to have one, and always a queue. Workshop staff on other hand are always quick, efficiënt and freindly
B.
..... slowest walkers you will ever come across
elaboration required, 3 to 4 staff leaning on wall lollygagging about facebook, 1 car over pit 5 vehicles lined up.. In my time in retail i would have been either sweeping or cleaning if nothing to do and moving with a purpose when it was busy not navel gazing and walking at the slowest speed while people are waiting for your "services", feel free to check your cameras as i have my date and timestamped photos also. Actually i will pass them onto Nationwide Management as you seem to dont quite get it with yout passive agressive comment, it seems your singing and dancing television adverts dont quite ring true as boy oh boy not a smile at all.
Also my car flew through the wof so dont use that if you think it failed and im mad about it.
S.
Just very nice helpful people
J.
i went to VTNZ thursday 25.6 20 but due to a large que i thought i would go back Friday 26.6.20 but the que was right out the door this time so went back at 1.00pm and people still queing outside the door so decided monday would be the go so arrived to be the 8th in line on Monday 29.6.20 so after a reasonably long wait got served the counter ladies were good and knowledgable and business done , i think the ladies are doing a fine job but their systems need updating so they can process paperwork faster and more efficiently , also in defence of the ladies a lot of people go in unprepared , plus misunderstanding paperwork sent to them or not reading paperwork thoroughly and wasting others time. hence adding to the que waiting time.
S.
Served fast hardly anyone waiting. Polite friendly ladies behind the counter
B.
Good guys nice to know the vehicle is A1.
K.
I always go to Hastings VTNZ with our 3 vehicles and trailer . I dont have to book it into a garage at a day and time that suits them and leave it for the day which inconveniences me and someone else that has to pick me up and drop me off.While I'm waiting I can watch netflix . When they are finished I drive away. If the car needs repair I take it to my garage. Finally . The ladies in the office have always been nice.
u.
Excellent service, excellent staff, i deal with every VTNZ in the North Island, with our heavy commercial fleet and Orchard road VTNZ is by far the most accommodating and user friendly. Definitely a 5 star business. (That unfortunately has to deal with some 1 star customers... after reading some of the comments below...)
I.
Very expensive for a motorbike wof. The staff are all cherry, but move at a snails pace. Don't go here if you're in a hurry, try and book in with your local mechanic. The site is clean and tidy but getting from your vehicle to the office is quite a mission.
B.
I never thought I'd say this about a Vehicle Testing Station but the staff here are awesome and helpful! I have had plenty of reason to use the services at VTNZ and am very impressed by the kindness of their current office staff. They are also very proficient when it comes to WOF checks for cars, bikes or trucks.
The only reason I gave four stars rather than five is due to their WOF checks being more expensive than almost every other place in Hawkes Bay. They used to be much more competitive than they currently are. But I suppose you pay a premium for fast service.
I highly regard Hastings VTNZ.
S.
very expensive WOF $65 std car, if you don't belong to any of their groups they give discounts to. it can be expensive.
I have just found out most of the local car dealerships give a WOF for only $50 and they clean your car. so if you have a Toyota, Suzuki, BMW, Mazda, Holden, Ford, Honda try you local dealership first or local garage.
can VTNZ beat that? or match the price?
M.
They were informative and helpful there is usually a long line but there was no line when I arrived and the girls that served me was amazing 😉
A.
The service was great once it happened, having to wait over an hour was not.
J.
As well as making sure the car was good for the wof they also gave great advice on things to get looked at in the next few months. Great safety focus.
R.
The 3 stars are for the stafe but to get your car reg it was about 30 minutes this is not good
P.
Very helpful staff both Counter n Mechanics on the forecourt ,great service thank you VTNZ orchard road Hastings
J.
Friendly and happy folk.
P.
Always consistent, good place to go a bit dear but a honest place to get your WOF
M.
Fast and efficient - happy to chat about your car with you - helpful office admin behind the desk
S.

R.

j.
Very professional business. Staff have great knowledge and extremely helpful.
R.
Quick, quality WOF checks. Will fix minor faults. Option to include reasonably priced lube checks
R.
It's a 5 because I passed my driver's test and got some real positive feedback from the driving instructor
G.
Used to be really good apart from grumpy ladies behind the counter. Now they're more expensive, and pull you up on everything.
J.
Staff great but the wait was very long
m.
Long wait..at least an hour..seems like they need to expand or do something differently as there were plenty after me.
J.
Very good everything was on time and the experience was amazing
h.
Highly recommend taking your vehicle or bike for a wof. Its indipendant and peace of mind that they are not in it to get remedial work out of it.
N.

The reception and service I received this morning when getting a warrant was really awesome. Thank you so much to the receptionist who took the time to really chat and engage. The guys who did the car were pleasant and efficient. I would recommend this place, the customer service is fantastic. Thank you.

Go here every Saturday.
Great ppl here.
Fast and efficient

Quick service, professional crew. Very knowledgeable. Their COVID protocols aren't the best signposted, which makes figuring out where to go a tad difficult. But I'm sure that will all change soon.
