AWFUL

Absolute rip off artists. DO NOT USE FIRST CENTRAL. - Cost more than my renewal from previous insurer but thought what the hell as I needed to insure my car quickly and I could do it online to be insured immediately and my insurer didn't open until 9am. - The proceeded to put my policy up £100's for little known reason - Asked for a load of proof, like driving licence, DVLA code, Proof of no claims etc. which was inconvenient but also received many threatening emails and letters saying they would cancel my policy. Chillax, it was doing it! - Tried to change my occupation - wanted to charge me almost £90!!! - Cancelled as they are a bunch of charlatans, and cost me £80!!! DO NOT USE and GOD HELP YOU IF YOU HAVE AN ACCIDENT. Reviewed on: 26th March 2018

Charged £27 for 9 days worth of insurance :)

After you add on all of the extras that they make you pay throughout the year, being with 1st central becomes an expensive, stressful and boring hobby. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2018

Not great for renewing

I have been with 1at central for two years. They provided me with a good service throughout. However, prior to my third renewal date, I received a quote which was 3x the amount that other insurance companies were charging. So much for loyalty. Based on this final sham, I would not recommend 1st central. Reviewed on: 17th February 2018
