Being ignored

Following difficulty speaking to RAC claims department I have tried to make a complaint. Despite FIVE attempts have had no response. Anyone at the RAC ever heard of customer service?? Reviewed on: 14th March 2023

WORST INS CO OUT THERE

Do NOT use RAC - they are not a direct supplier so you will be charged for EVERYTHING. Change of bank account - £20 admin fee - missed DD because they messed up the change of bank account - £20 Fee - cancelling insurance because they are rubbish - £55 (yes, FIFTY FIVE) fee. Wish id never heard of them! Reviewed on: 3rd March 2023

Not even 1 star

Unfortunately can't give minus stars, but these people are crooks and cheats. Do not go near them. The customer service is non-existent. They take your money it's left how these people behind hopefully they'll go under go elsewhere. They are absolutely complete Cowboys Reviewed on: 23rd February 2023

disgraceful - no phone service

been ringing and ringing long waits - no answer to repot non fault damage to my vehicle - neither phone nor email service - deeply worrying if there had been an accident. utterly useless, will be changing asap Reviewed on: 20th February 2023

Do not recommend Worst insurance service ever

My insurance was arranged through rac who use markusstudy who use vision repairs I had an accident on 9th December 2022 it took them till January to take my car to a garage from storage as it is not roadworthy then it had to be assessed and approved which it has been but still no updates as to whether work has started you cannot get a hold of anyone, you cannot get updates they don't update their portal. I am still waiting for a courtesy car which should have been included in my insurance but they didn't. So have to wait for the repair garage to supply one which I was told 6 week wait. I was told last week I was next on list for a courtesy car but still no further updates I have phoned everyday this week I have lost count how many times I have phoned since my accident. Its ridiculous I'm a community Nurse and my car is essential too my job. The courtesy car is non existent. I will never use these services again iv never known anything like it. Its not acceptable and certainly would never recommend Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023

do not trust them

When I wanted to have my insurance, they were so pleased offering. However, when I sold my car and bought a new one, they told me to cancel my policy. Today I called them and discovered I could change my approach for another vehicle. I am a student; I paid 150 for cancellation. This was like stealing! When I told them about this, they told me they were sorry! Don't trust them anyway. Very very unsatisfied with them. Reviewed on: 21st January 2023

Worst Insurance company

Worst Insurance agency i ever had.very Poor customer service. You will never get to know what they really want from you. Always send notification of cancellation exceeding the date so that they can take extra money from you by saying different things.If you want to upload a document they need to charge you huge amount. Really disappointed with their service. Reviewed on: 19th January 2023

Misleading poor customer service

They don’t take responsibility. Customer service is average. They use a 3rd party company soo they can pass the buck. Only get the black box if your planning to renew or manage your driving. otherwise it’s not worth it. You have pay for the black box to be removed. Which they hide in their small print. Good luck fellow drivers. Reviewed on: 18th January 2023
