RAC Car insurance reviews (187)

Awful

Put my renewal premium up hugely despite not making a claim, sent me a really offhand email telling me that despite paying by Direct Debit monthly for years and years I would now have to pay the whole amount in one go (nearly £1600). Talk about not reading the room and helping their clients in a difficult economic environment. Happy news is I got insurance for £900 elsewhere with the facility to pay monthly, so the RAC were not only rude and dismissive they were also just plain greedy. Not ever using them for anything again as they couldn't care less about customer loyalty. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Good car insurance

Not made claim. Good value car insurance as required. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Best deal

Tried a lot of companies this was the best and cheapest deal as the previous company wanted nearly twice as much because of my age which isn’t fair Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023

Clear cover

Easy to understand cover for your car and really good when there is a problem that needs sorting out. Reviewed on: 14th August 2023

RAC and Underwriters Makerstudy problems

These companies are frauds, they're both telling me different things and have been for weeks until I started asking for information in writing form. Just be aware they're problematic and even though they're contracted with each other they don't communicate with each other. Reviewed on: 18th July 2023

Efficient

I have not had to make any claims during my time insured by the RAC but when I have had to make policy amendments the process has been easy. Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

Avoid at all costs

Just cancelled policy after 3 months cover as they tried to rip us off for 2 x £25.00 admin fees to amend the policy. The original premium was £246. and we’re getting a refund of £48. Their cancellation fee is £56 (another rip-0ff?) which means we’ve paid a premium of £142 for 3 months cover (when a full year was only £246). AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS.

One of the best around

Hassle free car insurance with a established company Reviewed on: 14th July 2023

Bad car insurance company

If could I would give them 0 starts I have arranged to do the cancellation over the phone with the customer service. Everything agreed they would take the money out from the direct debit account within 7 days from my partner account. which was really appreciated by me and my partner as we had a joint car insurance for that car. After 2 weeks I received an increase of £25 on my cancellation fee plus the amount owed After talking to then on the phone still wanted me to pay the increase. GREEDY and conning company never use them again I would not recommend to anyone regardless of what the situation Find a new quote get another insurance company to provide you cover Reviewed on: 12th July 2023
