Worst experience with a insurance company

1
I made a inssurance with Acorn and is the worst decision I have made. After a online change of vehicle with confirmation email and paying the the amount of money I was running 2 months withous insurance because of negligence. I had an incident after 2 months and I found out tham my vehicle it was insured with them ,after spending hours on the phone with unproffesional agents and all the time after 2 hours waiting on the phone the call was going nowhere ,I could not repair my vehicle I paid 2 month insurance for the old vehicle that I was not driving anymore ,no refund an on top of this a 100£ plus to my insurance per month I don`t recommand Acorn please paid a bit more but don`t get involve with them Reviewed on: 19th August 2020

Very poor insurance company

I had a accident and rang my insurance haven insurance tonget the car repaired after having the car for 3 weeks theybdecided to write it off and take the courtesy car back. I am a keybworker and with covid 19 not able to get to work as dont have a car. They haven't tried to understand or be helpful in this matter. Other insurance companies are reducing the premiums and offering courtesy cars to their clients until the end of the pandemic. Haven on other hand are not. Also they will not let me buy the car back. AVOID AT ALL COST GUYS Reviewed on: 1st May 2020

Personally I would avoid this company.

Absolute shambles of a company. Staff rude and unhelpful. Glad I didn’t take a policy with them if that’s how they treat potential customers. Reviewed on: 24th April 2019

no care for customers

1
if i could give zero stars i would. Acorn casually cancelled a policy that was taken out and paid for online. They left a retired lady to drive a car with no insurance. When I called and asked why they didn't call to ask for what ever documents they needed, a lady casually told me that they are in inbound call centre and can not make out going calls. POOR SERVICE. NO CARE FOR CUSTOMERS WHAT SO EVER. Reviewed on: 1st February 2019
