Pivotal - Car Subscription Omdömen 

I about to take delivery of my 4th vehicle from JLR Pivotal, a special thanks for the exceptional customer service from Ashley for her personal and professional guidance and help, also to Nisha who equally has managed our account.
Thanks also goes to Manuel, Harry, Thomas, Donna, Joanne and any other team member that have interacted with.

From registration, to assessment to delivery everything was slick. Cannot fault the service at all. Brilliant

can't recommend Pivotal highly enough. I've had two Range Rovers through them, and the service has been outstanding from start to finish.

The quality of the vehicles, the professionalism, and the delivery process were all exceptional. Everything was handled smoothly and efficiently, and I genuinely couldn't fault them in any way.

The only reason I've stopped using Pivotal is because my wife wanted to continue to use her own private plate and so I have purchased her own Range Rover. Otherwise, I'd still be leasing through them without hesitation.

If you're looking for a reliable, professional leasing company that delivers exactly what they promise, Pivotal Travel Lease Company is an excellent choice.

Absolutely brilliant customer service.

We had a small issue with the car, but the constant communication, feedback and ultimate resolution led by Mason Steel was by far the best I have ever experienced. Every conversation was backed up by an email and even when the issue was sorted he offered a courtesy follow up call one week later to check up on me.

I would thoroughly recommend this company to anyone looking for a bespoke, high quality service.

Mason is a credit to the company.

Great customer service from start to finish. Mason kept in touch with us every step of the way when we had an issue with our vehicle. This is our 3rd vehicle from Pivotal and delivery service has been perfect to our timings. Would recommend 10/10.

From start to finish, the entire experience with Wajieran and the team was excellent. As a company owner, finding such a flexible, short-term vehicle lease with great value for money has been fantastic. The onboarding was seamless, and I would gladly recommend them to any business owner. Five stars!

Third car leased now with Pivotal. Excellent customer service, generous mileage allowance and insurance included within the lease cost. Would highly recommend to anyone.

First vehicle lease with Pivotal. Very easy to deal with, beautiful cars, having just returned the first car, fair wear and tear policy is very good and accurate. 2nd vehicle delivered, super easy.

Great very helpful and would recommend

Timely responses

*Updated position*

Pivotal responded to my complaint below and have provided a very fair solution, which now clearly balances recognition of my very long tenure as a customer (since their start-up days) with their own commercial needs. I am very happy with this solution and will now be remaining a customer. The only reason the review is updated to 4, and not 5, stars, is the effort and escalation it took to reach this position.

Overall though, I am now very satisfied that a fair and reasonable outcomes has been reached for both parties and a particular thank you to Shanie for finding a solution that worked for us all:)

****

I have been a customer since the original Carpe start-up days in 2020 and believe I was one of the company’s first 20 customers. Over approximately six years, I remained with the business throughout its evolution into Pivotal and its ownership by JLR because the flexible subscription model suited me extremely well.

Unfortunately, my experience of how Pivotal handles long-standing customer relationships has left me profoundly disappointed.

My current Jaguar F-Pace P400e costs around £1,000 per month. With the F-Pace no longer available, the broadly comparable replacement options are now around £1,500 per month, while the Range Rover Sport P460e I was considering costs £1,850–£2,050 per month.

I accepted that prices had increased and did not expect Pivotal to preserve my historic rate indefinitely. I simply asked whether, given my six-year tenure and status as one of the company’s earliest customers, they would offer any meaningful retention arrangement if I committed to a substantially more expensive vehicle.

The answer was effectively no.

Instead, Pivotal pointed to its general Rewards programme and noted that I had redeemed approximately £1,400 over the duration of my custom. While welcome, a standard points scheme is not a bespoke retention offer. Presenting it as sufficient recognition of a six-year relationship while asking me to increase my monthly spend by up to £1,050 felt distinctly underwhelming.

I also made it completely clear that performance was my principal requirement and that, if I were paying nearly twice as much, the vehicle needed to represent a major upgrade. I was then told that the Range Rover Sport P460e might not be available until November and was instead encouraged to consider a slower diesel model at a similar price.

That suggestion demonstrated remarkably little engagement with what I had actually asked for.

I therefore raised a formal complaint. Pivotal’s response stated that it could not offer individual preferential pricing because it applies the same structure consistently to all customers in the interests of fairness and transparency.

It then immediately offered me an “exclusive” 25% discount on the slower diesel model specifically during August — a period when Pivotal knew I would be outside the country and would have little or no use for the vehicle.

Apparently bespoke commercial flexibility is possible after all, provided it is attached to a vehicle I did not want and a period in which the benefit to me would be minimal.

I do not dispute Pivotal’s right to set its own prices, nor do I expect special treatment simply because I have been a customer for a long time. However, I did expect a business I had supported since its earliest days to make some credible effort to retain me, properly understand my requirements and distinguish my position from that of somebody making their first enquiry today.

Instead, I received standard pricing, a generic explanation about sustainability, repeated references to a points scheme and an unsuitable “resolution” that did not address the complaint.

The subscription model itself can be useful, and historically I found the service very good. However, based on this experience, prospective customers should understand that long tenure appears to carry very little practical value when the time comes to discuss retention.

After six years, I expected better. “Disappointed” barely covers it.

Love Pivotal, great customer service and great experience.

Unbelievable service from the whole team and big shout to Rowena and Toby.

Perfect dream car for the family along with a dream service

More people should consider a Pivotol subscription. It's no hassle, the team are easy to reach and fast to act and no hidden costs. It is a premium subscription and not for everyone, but as a business owner its tax efficient for me and I don't have a vehicle depreciating in value,

We thoroughly enjoyed our Pivotal membership and were sad to return our final vehicle, a decision driven only receiving a car benefit through work.
We will definitely return to use Pivotal in the future and are excited to see how the fleet develops.

I was unsure about this service before I signed up, but it has exceed all my expectations. We are on our 5th vehicle and the service has been superb.

Ashley who has supported on the most recent renewals has been a pleasure to deal with.

I highly recommend.

Mick.

The Pivotal staff have been incredibly helpful and professional every step of the way. Id say the customer experience has honestly been superb.
