Sign Up NowI locked myself out of my car late at night, and within 30 minutes, someone from Happy was there to help. The process was smooth, and I didn’t have to worry about a hefty service call fee — it was all covered under my membership. I’ve already used the plan again for a garage door issue, and it’s been worth every penny.
I signed up thinking I might use it once or twice a year, but Happy has already helped me twice this month — first for a dead battery and then when my garage door cable snapped. Both times, they showed up fast, handled everything professionally, and I didn’t pay any call-out charges thanks to the membership. It’s honestly a no-brainer if you own a home or car.
Happy came through when I needed them most — my front door lock jammed on a weekend, and I couldn’t get inside. Within an hour, their locksmith had it fixed. I didn’t expect the level of service to be this good for a membership plan, but they’ve definitely earned my trust. I’m glad I found them.
