So do you think they will remove it using a key if its snapped or chisel it off

Hi I recently had a bulge on front tyre of my Citreon c3, didn't think there was much of an issue changing the tyre but the locking nut key would not fit on the nut and the locking nut looked bent to one side. After trying the locking nut end has snapped off. I still have the key which had the end of the locking nut in but I have now removed it. I took it to one garage who basically didn't seem to have the time of day to try and fix it and told me to go to a Citreon garage where they will use a 'skeleton key' which I don't have a clue why? Could anyone advise on this as I am stuck not being able to drive due to the huge bulge and no further forward on fixing the problem. Thanks
