Based in Liverpool City Centre, coming out of the pandemic I needed to find a company that could service and maintain our physical clockcard machines. We have used them for years, but our previous service company was no longer interested and wanted to sell us a fancy "biometric computer system". I just wanted the clock card machines to work! So enter Addtime and Peter - professional, courteous and onsite within 36 hours! Great service and now Addtime will be my new service provider. Cheers

I contacted Peter from Addtime regarding a new clocking on machine for the lads in the works.Peter offered me some great impartial advice as to which clocking on machine was best suited for our company.After placing the order for the particular model we wanted Peter advised me of the lead time and installation date.Peter arrived with his co worker on the advised installation date as agreed and installed the new clocking on machine.I was very impressed with the service received, everything went to plan as advised by Peter and I have to say what a professional outfit this company is Peter did a great Job and was very tidy, no mess left to clean up a credit to the Company.Peter took the time to go through all the various scenarios regarding the use of the clocking on machine and answered all my queries to a very high professional standard.I was uncertain of a specifc operation regarding the clocking on machine so decided to telephone Peter, who went above and beyond to explain in great detail and a lot of patience of what I needed to do.Addtime are certainly a great company and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
