Integrity is everything, and this company packs it in spades. I had an issue with a car key for my fiance's car, which was broken. I went to the shop and they cut me a new key. I get home tonight to test it out, and the cut was a bit off... I can start the car, but the key was stuck and I couldn't remove it from the ignition. I call the store, and Mario comes thru to my residence after hours, gives me a new cut on the spot, while giving the car battery a jump in the process (all free of charge of course). Everyone makes mistakes, but what matters most is how you fix them. These guys went above and beyond to do so... I'd recommend them a thousand times over, because they'll do what it takes to get it right, and leave the customer satisfied. read more

This dude is a clown, over charging plus making no sense why he's over charging you. Highly recommend to go to Locksmith on Adam's st in Boston,MA. I paid $30 dollar compared to the $120 at Boston car key was charging. read more

I lost both keys to my Toyota. After two days of panicking and calling two dealerships, I was resigned to the fact I would have to pay over a thousand dollars to have the car get new keys/the computer reprogrammed. I called Boston Car Keys to explain my situation and was told I could have two new keys made for $300 that same day. I was slightly skeptical but was very happy to give it a shot. That same afternoon, Boston Car Keys met me at my car, and within 25 minutes I had two new keys and was good to go. I was extremely happy with the service and would recommend to anybody read more

Prices are great and the service was quick! Ricardo was very helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommend. read more

This company has no values and is disgusting to work with. Firstly - They are not 24/7. Go ahead, try to call right now at 3 pm on Thursday and no one will pick up. When someone finally reached back out to me I picked up the phone I asked who was calling and they yelled into the phone "Do you want help or NOT!?" Thankfully I went to HMS locksmith, a kind and genuine company I was happy to give my money to. read more

We lost a key to my Subaru Forrester. I tried CitySide Subaru .They told I had to stay w car at least 2 hrs and cost $300. I have a bad experience w them in the past suggesting expensive unnecessary coolant repair.This is how I found Boston Car Keys on Yelp. The gentleman who answered phone was patient & helpful. We brought car & all keys we had in . It was $60 less than the dealer & and took less than 30 minutes ( they told me 45mins when I called) The new key & remote work perfectly An awesome family owned East Boston business. Highly recommended! read more

Read on the website that they program any key "24/7/365 foreign or domestic" just to be told over the phone that they don't do Mercedes cars at all. Don't waste your time or money with them you're better off going to somebody that actually knows their craft. read more

Great service, fast, and helpful. Ricardo was able to replace my lost Subaru Impreza keys the same day for a fraction of what I would have been charged at the dealership. Would recommend them to anyone. read more

Called at 1130 am am was given an 30 min window of 1230-1pm. Got a call at around 1230 from the tech saying he got an emergency in the airport and will be done in 45 mins but then will be on the way but wanted to let us know he will be late. No issue. Right!! At 4pm still no show!! Called the office. No answer!! Can't even get through to cancel!!! Whole day wasted waiting around!! read more

My (only) car key broke off in the ignition. I called the dealership, my mechanic and a few locksmiths before I found Boston Car Keys. Ricardo and his team came to my house at 9:30pm. They removed the broken key from the ignition and created a new one along with a key fob. This was not an inexpensive job but it would have been SO much more anywhere else. Thanks Ricardo! read more

Excellent customer service and quality off work. He came from the office in East Boston. Very friendly.

Amazing customer service! My car was disabled for days due to car theft sensor activated due to a damaged key. I was in my car within a hour and a new key programmed in 10 minutes. Highly recommend! read more

I needed to replace my car key since the blade had broken off the fob.

Was stranded in a Boston parking lot late sunday evening and called this service. Got to me in an hour and had a new key made in 10 minutes for a fraction of the price. Super nice, great communication, and great service for an unbelievable price. I recommend this company and they are 10/10. read more

In and out in just 20 minutes. Great service! 100% will be back if I need my key programmed again

Boston Car Keys is fabulous! My smart key was bashed to pieces and the dealer price was almost $400. to replace it, including programmjng and cutting a new key. These guys were $195, including everything! And it works! Great to deal with, including nice people and a neat dog, Teo. I tried to go on the internet, but all I got was a used smart key for $95. that the dealer wanted another $175. to program- and it didnt work! Highly recommended. read more

Boston Car Keys delivers a fantastic customer experience! I called them about getting a replacement key delivered and programmed at my house, and they were there less than 2 hours later. After about 20 minutes, they called to let me know they were done. A life-saver service that is extremely reasonably priced. I'd recommend them to anyone! read more

I called and spoke with Boston car keys and they gave me a verbal quote for a replacement key, they told me they'd need to order the remote fob. later the next week, I called ready to start the process, was told when they answered it was good Friday. He would return my call in Saturday. Saturday came no return phone call. I left another message, late Saturday. No return phone call, left a second message on Monday and a third on Tuesday. Never a return phone call. Not sure what the problem was, maybe they didn't want the business. I went back to the dealer. read more

We have one car, and three drivers. Sometimes one of us needs the car and then leaves it for the other to pick up later. For this you need two keys.We only had one for our '16 Subaru, and the dealers all wanted like $500 for another one. I was also concerned about past situations where a key was misplaced, or dropped down a storm drain, or got wet ... I called around and found Boston Car Key. They got back to me ASAP with a quote and we arranged a time to bring the car in. What's more cool: they could actually do the job! 45 minutes later we had a second key for about half the dealer price - a key that does everything, including push button start, remote locking, etc. We are thrilled! The service, responsiveness, and quality were all top notch. I am happily referring others. read more

I found Boston Car Keys when my car key--my emergency backup car key--grew legs and walked away. I have one of those weird transponder keys, so I figured I'd have to go back to the dealership. It was Sunday, so the closest Toyota service center was closed. The second wouldn't work on a new key unless I got my car towed to their repair shop. Ha! And they wouldn't be able to do it until the next morning. I called Boston Car Keys and met Rich (Proprietor? Maybe. Savior? Definitely!) at my car 30 minutes later. It took a couple of tweaks, but less than an hour later, I had two working car keys. I swear--I'm not the harebrained type who would misplace her elbows if they weren't physically attached. But if my keys go the way of the Jimmy Hoffa tapes again, I'm calling these guys. read more

These guys deserve all the stars. Customer service was outstanding and fast! I think Ricardo, the owner, responded to my email inquiry before I even hit send. The very reasonable price he quoted me was exactly what I was charged by his employees when I showed up the next day. And the guys at the shop were super friendly, thorough, and professional. And did I mention fast? I was in and out of there in about 20 minutes with a new car key all programmed, and three new apartment keys. My highest recommendation for these guys. Ricardo knows how to run a great business. Give them a try - I have a feeling no challenge will be too great for them! read more

Omg Boston Car Keys is a AMAZING. Rich came out to my home to create a car key for my push start Lexus today. Rich saved my life I called around and everyone was giving me outrageous prices or they didn't know how to do Lexus push start cars. Rich was very kind and fast took him 15 min tops. He also hooked me up with a Lexus logo key just like the dealership and added a cool leather case. Te quero Mucho Rich BEST IN BOSTON read more

Wow, wow, wow. Thanks to this fantastic Yelp community, I was able to find this great place. I went to their East Boston location and was seen right away. The key was made and I was on my way in 20 minutes. I got a key with a transponder on it and 3 house keys made all for nearly 1/3 of what my dealership was charging me for just 1 key! Unreal! Support this amazing business and use them instead of your dealership. They are fast, friendly, efficient, and are quick to respond if you use Yelp Mail. I will definitely be back if there is anything else I need. read more

This company is really amazing. My mom lost her key for her 2005 Toyota Sienna XLE. The dealer would've probably charged her out the a** for a replacement. But these guys came 25 mins. outside of Boston, agreed to make my mom TWO keys for such a reasonable price. Wow.. I'm really impressed by their kindness and willingness to help and meet us where we're at. AND he worked very hard. Do NOT waste your time with ANYBODY else. Thank you BCK!!! read more

Boston Car Keys - Two new keys, best price in and around Boston!! 2005 Toyota Sienna - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Car key worked for less than 6 months Called to ask if they would replace it and the guy very rudely told me it's my problem to figure out and suggested I try an auto store and if I want them to look at the key I need to travel to their store in east Boston to have it done. I paid them a ton of money to come to my house and create a key, if your product breaks in less than a year I should not as the customer have to go out of my way to have it made right. Rude guy was the kicker. Wouldn't use them again and wouldn't recommend to others. read more

Richard's exceptional service really blew me away. He was friendly and quick to respond, arrived just when he said he would, and even modified his schedule to help a neighbor who went down to ask for help while he was working on my key. What really struck me, though, was how honest he was. It turned out I was in an even stupider position than I had originally thought and he easily could have made some quick cash off me. Instead, he showed me the situation and accepted a very modest token for his time. I feel as though I've had the kind of exchange you see in movies where the goodly doctor of old pays house calls to the folks out on the prairie. While I hope to avoid needing his services again myself any time soon, I will leap at the opportunity to recommend his services to a friend. If you're debating between towing your car to a dealer or calling Richard, call Richard. read more

My car remote battery died and I didn't have a screw driver small enough to swap out the battery. I purchased replacement batteries online and tried to open the remote with a screw driver from an eyeglass kit. I wanted to install new batteries into both of my remotes. Anyway, I wasn't successful so I decided to visit Boston Car Keys for help. The kind man swapped out the batteries on both of my remotes free of charge. Thank you so much! You are a lifesaver! read more

Ricardo is a lifesaver!!! I called around to see who gives the most reasonable quotes and still had good ratings and came upon him! Very professional, left a VM and called me back right after to schedule an appointment. He was so efficient and knows what he's doing. In less than 30 min i had 2 pairs of Prius smartkeys and zero headache! It cost me 1/2 of what my dealership quoted me. Thank god for Boston Car Keys. read more

Poor me I had a vehicle lockout, but thanks to Boston Car Keys I was able to overcome that obstacle with no problem! Oscar did an exceptional job. Great workers and great service. They solved an emergency for an affordable price. Will definitely be going to Boston Car Keys for the rest of their services. Thanks Oscar! You guys rock! read more

Service took 2 men 2 hours. I paid $225 for 1 key with transponder inside of it. I did not need to buy a clicker because I had a spare clicker. I was quoted $65 each for a copy of key with transponder or a copy of clicker. I called on a Friday evening at 6pm. They were at my place in everett the same night by 7:20pm. They left at 9:20pm. I forgot to mention the yelp discount. Whatever, I haven't had the use of my car in one week. The gentleman I spoke with was super nice and professional. Neatly dressed in a professionl van with the companies logo all over it. read more

I've been trying to get my keys fixed for a long time. Went here and in less than 10 minutes I had 2 new sets of keys and my car was fixed! Awesome service, super friendly and fast. Highly recommended! read more

Blown away by the incredible customer service experience I received. Like idiots, we lost our ONE key to our Civic and it was stuck in the driveway - I had no idea how we'd solve this problem. Turns out BCK comes TO OUR HOUSE (or wherever your car is) to make a new key - I got two so this won't happen again. I called at 8:30, they were here shortly after ten (I wasn't on a time table, I am sure in an emergency they'd work with you), and before 11 two shiny new keys delivered right to my door. Incredible! read more

A+ Very helpful, great prices and service. Would recommend to all my family and friends. Very reasonable price.

Knowledgeable, fast, well priced, they'll even come to you or provide an accurate estimate if you're on the fence. Awkward parking situation, but where around here isn't? Shop inside is full of neat little one gimmick items that you might want to put on your keychain. read more

Rich and his teammates are impressively helpful and skilled. They work fast and did not make wait or waste any time. They're true professionals in car keys and fobs, I highly recommend them and their services. Prices are very reasonable and better than my local dealer for sure. Thank you guys!! read more
