Hit by third party insured with RAC

I'm currently insured with Admiral, but was hit by a third party insured by RAC. My insurance offered me to go through their third party company Auxillis, which informed me my vehicle was a total loss. RAC then contacted me the next day to transfer the valuation amount into my account. Very fast and easy so I could look into getting a new vehicle. Reviewed on: 18th November 2023

Avoid like the Plague

Tried to change vehicles on my policy and told I've to take out a new policy with another provider, and in order to leave to find another myself, I'm required to pay a £100+ exit fee. Complete daylight robbery Reviewed on: 16th November 2023

Joke insurance Co Ltd

I've had the black box insurance for 12 months. Their renewal letter is a 133% increase, a farcical amount. The black box wasn't working at all for four months. When I rang RAC to report they put the phone down twice. In the opening weeks I had 4 letters cancelling my policy and 4 letters saying it wasn't being cancelled. Reviewed on: 13th November 2023

Making changes

This company are a joke, just tried to make a couple of simple changes to a policy (change of address and new job - nothing unusual) with 5 years driving experience and 5 years no claims to be told this can't be done, and also told that I must now cancel the policy, even though it was an enquiry... Avoid unless you know for sure your circumstances won't change.. Reviewed on: 24th October 2023

Absolutely point

How does this company even exist.. had an accident in our car and RAC, who I pay, do not handle the claim or actually know who does. I’d rather pay more and get a better service than deal with these clowns. Reviewed on: 24th October 2023

Avoid like the plague

They simply don't care or do anything for their customers. Complete wastes of space. Reviewed on: 23rd October 2023

Rubbish

If I could give minus stars I would Despicable, service, rip-off, money, grabbing vultures stay well away do not use RAC Insurance For anything. I had a policy and then I changed my car. to a VW transporter van, no commercial van every day family vehicle type van with six seats. In the past when I have changed vehicles midway through a policy to be no problem and I’ve been able to do it, I may have been charged a very small admin fee but I could do it. Oh no, no no no not with these rip-off vultures they gave me no choice but to cancel my policy, and then charge me an obscene amount for a cancellation fee As they claimed, they don’t insure the type of vehicle that I wanted to I told them it’s not a commercial van it’s a family vehicle doesn’t matter they were rude on the phone not very helpful. Like I say do not use these guys they are awful Reviewed on: 23rd October 2023

Vile organisation

Don't insure with these. Double your fee after 12 months and hope you don't notice the auto renewal price. Also you would be very lucky to see a penny in a claim. Rude customer service also. And NEVER use the breakdown recovery. They don't exist if you have anything worse than a flat battery. Even then you can be abandoned for 12 hours or more Reviewed on: 19th October 2023

Fair price insurance

Spotted the firm online when my previous insurers wouldn't lower their prices Reviewed on: 14th October 2023

Really bad!

Every expensive No one ever answers the phone App doesn't work, website login never works, telematics don't work. Avoid Reviewed on: 9th October 2023
