1st Central Car Insurance reviews (849)

Friendly, reliable service.

I would like to say how impressed I have been with the service from 1st Central. Very friendly and reliable. Will reccommend to family and friends. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

Cheapest around!

I have been with 1st Central for a year and my car insurance was due for renewal. I normally use a comparison website to make sure I get the best deal. I had to make some minor changes and got a quote online with the best being 1st Central. Seeing as I was already with them I thought I'd just amend the details for a renewal and was then quoted a higher amount. When questioned about the difference in quote from them directly to the comparison site, I was told that was the best they could do. Strange! So I cancelled the renewal which is so easy to do online via chat and I took out new policy via the comparison site to get it cheaper. Although odd about the inability to match their own price, the process didn't take long and it was easy! Reviewed on: 31st July 2019

Simple and Easy

I have been with 1st Central for just short of 2 years, Customer Service is great, no issues with getting hold of an advisor to talk to regarding any query I have. The online portal is simple and easy to use, showing me everything i need to know regarding my insurance. Reviewed on: 11th July 2019

CON ARTIST BEWARE!!!

Hi I’ve been a customer with 1stcentral, I had an accident about 2 months ago they told me my car was a right off so I scrapped it, then they tell you they could fix it once it’s been scrapped, do not take insurance with this company they are all con artists, they take your money offer you high prices for insurance then find ways not to pay you out, customer service is also a disgrace, DO NOT TAKE INSURANCE WITH THIS COMPANY, I’ll be contacting the papers to let everyone no not to get coned of this company.
