How do you know, a car service garage has definitely done the work.

Hi guys, looking at costs of car servicing, prices are going up. I have very limited technical experience in cars, and yet I'm very paranoid, having read horror stories of garages not doing the work they are supposed to, on a full service for instance. Without xray eyes, what questions or things do I have to look for, to ensure that my car is serviced properly?. I know most on here say get a reputable local garage and some say main dealer is best, but I just want to know if there is anything I can say, check on the paperwork they give me, to ensure they have serviced it as described?.

You don't! Unless you have your mech head on my you are pretty screwed

Did my apprenticeship at a ford main dealer ,this was back in the day but the used parts were left in a clear bag with an offer or disposal after inspection.
There is so little work done on a service anyway ,I didn't see any sign work not been done ,the service would generate too much extra work to mess about ,ie discs and pads ,leaking wheel cylinders (I did say back in the day) ,ect ect
