NCT Omdömen 

I went for nct in Charleville. The car had issues . I found Team leader Kevin helpful honest professional and fair.He was most helpful.

Over the past few months I have had 3 NCT on my cars 2 at Carlow and 1 at Portlaois. On recent test in Carlow car failed on Tracking, operator was very courteous and explained the retest proceedure. Got car tracked and rebooked within 48 hrs. Passed with no issues. Another very pleasant operator.
A few months ago had test in Portlaois very pleasant operator. Passed with no issues. Overall a great service by very professional operators.

I had an English import car . I had to get it VRTed At Deansgrange NCT center. I was dealt with by a lady named Leonie. She was very professional and fully available in explaining what needed to be done. She took her time in highlighting the whole process. She came across as an extremely knowledgable and efficient employee.
BIG UP LEONIE👌

If I could give 0 stars for Ennis Co Clare NCT centre I would , the way the NCT lad talked to me was disgusting and I now have to book the retest , 1 and half hours away from my house and at 11pm at night, it's madness,

Whoever is the inspector with the initials MD in the tullamore test centre I’ve never met anyone as ignorant telling me to “find a better mechanic” when my car had been to the mechanic and got the work done all just a money making racket. My mechanic which I’ve been going to for years. Had adjusted my handbrake and actually told me if he had to adjusted it anymore it will do damage.

Nct inspector said “tell them there is more than just foot brake”. Pure ignorance they find anything to fail which is pure bull when the work has been done.

Nct is a ripoff , dip beamed failed and I paid a mechanic to align the lights before the test.
No description written on what the issue is just wrote major fail.
How is the mechanic to address what the issue is.
Also 40 Euro for only light retest is a joke!

I put my car through a retest yesterday evening and it passed , When I got my keys/cert off the tester he said "oh Your handbrake is a bit loose" When I got into the car the handbrake is completely snapped and handle comes all the way back , There was nothing wrong with it before I left it with them , He snapped it doing the test Literally just handed a complaint form to fill in , This is at Northpoint 2 (Ballymun)

My car passed it's NCT at Greenhills NCT but when I got back into my car, I discovered that they damaged my push button parking brake during the test. Now I have to stop/start my engine in order to engage/disengage the parking brake. The button does not work at all.

No apology.
Just fill in this paperwork.

Ironic that an NCT center then let you head off in your car with a dodgy parking brake that they're responsible for, surely that's not safe? 🤷🏻‍♀️
Make sure you take pictures and videos of your car before the test because I have a feeling they will try wash their hands of any responsibility for repairs.

Outrageous Behavior at NCT centre My Car Was Damaged During the Test! Be careful, avoid N. Pt 1 (Ex4,M50) centre.

I had an appalling experience during a recent vehicle test at an NCT centre. The inspector took a metal bar and started striking a part of my car. As a result of this completely unacceptable action, a hole was made in the vehicle’s bodywork. He then took a photo of the damage and told the driver that the test had failed, stating that the part must be replaced.

What makes this even worse is that video recording is strictly prohibited in all NCT centres, meaning there’s no way to prove what really happened. This creates a situation where inspectors can physically damage your vehicle and then claim it was a pre-existing defect.

This practice completely undermines public trust in the NCT system. It's not just incompetence — it's a clear violation of professional conduct and common sense.A vehicle inspection should verify roadworthiness — not cause deliberate damage!

I attended North point 2 this evening (VRT). Bernadette, the lady in this section was so helpful and friendly . Fantastic customer service . Took the time to explain everything to me .

My review is about the Dublin booking centre.. I got to my last day for my retest I rang to book in there was nothing available at my centre so I would have to do a new test!!! they advised me to keep ringing to see if there would be a cancellation I did that.. then a girl called SASHA answered this girl was more than helpful rang the test centre for me and got me in.. I understand this might not always be possible..but she was the first person to offer to do this.. I want to shoutout a big thank you to Sasha for her help and her professionalism.THANK YOU!

scam it is all Philippinos in there no mechanics at all

NCT centre Kells - makes the process easy. The staff are always lovely, it’s easy to access and the waiting area in the centre itself is much improved in recent years.

Previous dodgy NCT inspections. E.g. once failed due to lcd fitted driving lights. Retest, no light paras change..passed. This time, service improved. " Advice" given on non critical poss issue...same bulbs as b4 failed. passed, dreadful QA standards...a joke.

Went for NCT.. Failed because FRONT AXEL ALLIGNMENT is not OK.
went to do the wheels allignments where I was told they are perfect.
The car is a 2017 Mercedes Benz that always serviced on time in MSL Cork!!
Bunch of theifs!!

Had my car in for nct and the guy who did damaged the front wing on my car. I'm two weeks out since it was damaged and there telling me they will only pay for damage, and they won't pay for the day I'll be without the car while it's been repaired or they won't pay for a loan car or loss of wages for the day. Accidents can happen, but why should I be out of pocket for something they did to my car.

Just visited NCT center in Tralee Co. Kerry with a 2021 VW ID.3 fully serviced by dealer and NCT for the first time. Failed me for one dim headlight and they claim that they can’t find the VIN number on my cars chassis citing the one on the windscreen doesn’t count. They are a scam as we had previous similar issues with them. Disgrace and should be strictly regulated in such malpractice.

Absolute joke of a place. Only 2 people working and loads of people standing in a line waiting like idiots for over 20 minutes. Nobody even came out to say what the delay was. They must think people have nothing else to do only stand there half the day

Brought the car for test morning in donegal town staff and testers were great very welcoming and great personality's made it pleasant experience deserve a pay rise

Skibbereen NCT centre. This time my car was failed for the dipped beam lights being too high, they were legally lifted a bit by rolling the button on the dashboard 2 clicks, like what any car's headlights is capable of doing.. So, could they not just turn the button to lower the level of the lights when testing the car?? No, they would rather see it as a fault and fail the car and have you pay again to have it retested. Are they really all competent and qualified mechanics testing our vehicles?
