Car insurance purchase through a comparison website
As a customer who just got car insurance through a comparison site, I have to say the whole thing went really smoothly and without any bother. I managed to find the perfect deal for what I needed and what I could afford, all thanks to MoneySuperMarket. Swinton were top-notch too - their service was spot on every step of the way. Getting quotes and buying the policy was dead simple and well-run. I'm well chuffed with how easy the comparison site was to use and how professional Swinton were.
Unwanted car insurance quote
I found myself in a bit of a situation recently when my old car insurance company stopped offering coverage and passed my details to a new company - the one I didn't really want to go with. When I got the letter with the new quote, I was really annoyed and stressed out. It was such a hassle, I had to quickly get in touch with them to stop the direct debit from going ahead without my say-so. It could have all been avoided if they had just communicated properly.
Car insurance purchase
We recently got our car insurance sorted over the phone, and I have to say, it was a really great experience! Amanda was the one who assisted us, and she was absolutely fantastic. She was really friendly and upbeat, which made everything super easy. It was clear she knew what she was talking about, and that definitely gave us a lot of confidence in our insurance choice. Big thanks to Amanda - she's an absolute legend!
Car insurance purchase
I was on the hunt for car insurance for the upcoming year when I came across this company. Their website was really easy to use and made it a breeze to check out the various policies they had on offer. I eventually settled on Swinton because they seemed to strike the right balance between coverage and affordability. It was a relief to know that my car would be well looked after.
Not the cheapest but free stuff included
I was looking around for a good deal and came across this place. It wasn't the cheapest option, but they were offering some free extra stuff, which was pretty cool. I managed to get free insurance to ride a different bike, which is really useful, isn't it?
Car insurance renewal
I've just renewed my car insurance and I have to say, the assistant I spoke to really impressed me. They made everything so clear and easy to understand, and they were really professional throughout. I really liked how thorough they were and how they took the time to answer all my questions.
Last-minute change to policy
I had to make a sudden change to my policy recently, and I was really pleased with how easy and simple it was. The person I spoke to on the phone was really helpful and professional, and they sorted everything out quickly without any bother. I'm grateful for the efficient and straightforward service they provided.
Policy purchase
The staff member handling my policy was very knowledgeable and took me through each step carefully. I felt reassured and that my needs were being looked after. However, it did take longer than expected, which was a bit annoying. Nonetheless, everything worked out in the end and I am happy with the policy I have now.
Simple and informative insurance purchase
I've just bought some insurance and was really pleased with how the customer service agent explained everything to me. She was really nice and made sure I knew all the important stuff before I made the final decision. It went really smoothly and was hassle-free, which I was so grateful for.
Reasonable insurance price
I got a good price for my insurance to start with, but I'm worried it'll go up a lot next year like it often does with insurers. The website was really easy to use, which was way better for me than phoning up and getting loads of sales pitches for extra add-ons.
Motorcycle insurance setup
The whole process of getting my motorcycle insurance sorted went pretty well, smooth sailing for the most part... until I got to the bit about setting up my Direct Debit and card deposit. That's when things got a bit tricky. Close Brothers Premium Finance were the problem - I had to fill in the 'affordability' section three times, and each time I thought I was done, I'd just get asked to review it again. No confirmation, no receipt, just the same request over and over. It was so frustrating and a bit disappointing to be left hanging like that without any proper communication or follow-up from their end.
Car insurance renewal
I recently had to renew my car insurance and honestly, it was a bit of a nightmare. The reason they gave for changing my policy was nonsensical and just didn't make any sense. The person I spoke to on the phone seemed a bit unsure of what was going on and I could tell they weren't to blame. When I got the new quote, it was double what I had paid before which was a real shocker. It took a lot of back and forth but we finally managed to come to a reasonable resolution. I just think it's not right that someone like me, at 84 years old, should have to deal with all this unnecessary stress. It was just completely unacceptable and scandalous. The whole thing left a really bad taste in my mouth.
Quick and easy website
The website was dead easy to use, and I managed to nab some cracking prices for what I was after. Touch wood, I won't need to tackle the claims bit, but here's hoping it's just as plain sailing. All in all, I'm chuffed with how things have gone!
Online payment
Don't even waste your time trying to go on their website - it's an absolute nightmare! I ended up having to use the text option to pay my premium this year because their online system was far too confusing. They really need to get it together!
Easy website navigation, efficient paperwork
The website was really easy to use and made buying things really simple. The paperwork was also really straightforward and quick. I hope that if I ever need to make a claim in the future, the process will be just as good.
Insurance renewal nightmare
Oh my gosh, it was such a nightmare trying to cancel my insurance renewal with these people! I sent loads of emails and tried calling them, but no one was willing to help me. They just kept renewing my policy without asking my permission! And the prices are just outrageous - £879 for auto-renewal compared to £173 for the first year. It's like they lure you in with a cheap quote for new customers and then jack up the price. I had to contact my bank to stop them, and now I'm concerned about my credit score. Honestly, I'd advise steering clear of these guys and spreading the word to your friends too!
Overpriced car insurance
I was actually shopping around for car insurance and got redirected to this company when my old provider said they wouldn't renew my policy. They gave me a quote that was twice as much as what I found elsewhere, so I passed on it. But then, for about three weeks straight, they kept bombarding me with messages and emails almost every day to remind me to renew, with no way to opt out. It was really annoying and felt like an invasion of my space.
Easy online policy purchase
Thanks for the easy online process for buying my policy. I haven't had to speak to customer service or make any claims yet, so I can't give any feedback on that stuff.
