I had a new lock fitted. Got two keys with it.
I need a new key cut. I went to Timpsons. They cut me three for £50. None worked. I went back. They cut them again. None worked in the lock.
They said it was difficult because the code on the keys had been scratched off by the locksmiths and their phone number was etched on instead.
This means I can only get keys cut by that particular locksmith at an inflated price.
Is this legal? Aibu to be thoroughly cheesed off at having to pay almost double what Timpsons charged to new keys that work?
