Review of the Admiral, Car insurance:

Car insurance

Rates are really competitive and the app is easy to add or make changes to your policy. Reviewed on: 13th August 2022

they cover a variety of possibilities but all for an added price. Reviewed on: 28th July 2023

Hassle free insurance

4
Admiral have consistently been cheaper than using price comparison websites and have provided hassle free cover. Minor changes to your policy (e.g. change of address) are easy to complete within the app but the phone line has never let me down when I've needed to speak to a human. Reviewed on: 27th July 2023

Great Efficient Service

5
After having a No Fault Accident (I was hit by another car) Admiral did everything from doing the paperwork to arranging an appointment to seek medical compensation. Very impressed with the way they handled the claim quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend to friends and family. Reviewed on: 27th July 2023

Poor contact

1
I have been with Admiral for a number of years. They have steadily increased the premium at a higher rate than others as all insurance companies do to loyal customers. They have then decided not to renew my policy this time - no explanation of any sort. I have then tried to contact them and there isn't an email I can contact on, their chat system doesn't work. Useless! Very disappointing, I thought they were better than this! Reviewed on: 18th July 2023

Admiring Admiral's competitive renewal quote

4
This is the first time that I could not find a quote better than my renewal quote from Admiral. Long may this continue. Reviewed on: 18th July 2023

A good car insurance company

4
A reliable company even though it has been on the more expensive side. Good cover for broken windows which I had to rely upon. Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

Great insurance

5
Sometimes difficult to get in contact with customer services but generally great! Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

If you change a car, they won't refund the right amount for your previous car insurance

1
Hi, I have been a client for 2 years. I changed car and I had 2 car with them for 2 weeks. They don't want to send me details of the refund as their calculation is inaccurate. Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

Worst Insurance company.

1
Recently I renewed my insurance with admiral. 3 times they messed up my payments and took out the annual fee rather than monthly fee. Each time I phoned to complain and get my money back I was met with resistance until finally a manager sorted it and apologised. The third time this happened they cancelled my insurance without my knowledge. Eventually I did have a very helpful employee who got me a new policy and sorted it all out but it’s been 3 months of faff Reviewed on: 14th July 2023

Admiral is not covering the passed MOT engine blowed by tester when cheking incorrectly our car

1
We are so disapointed by Admiral Ensurance. They are playing with customers constanly. First they haven't accepted our claim, then someone from Admiral called and emailed us they will cover our damage in garage fully and now again when we called them are saying they are not going to cover our damage done by the garage! - Not covering for an engine if it blows up by tester fault in the garage - MOT was passed! You are left alone by them. Poor people and who ever uses their insurance for car or what ever you insure with them. They do not cover engine as mashine blowed up...but this is the most important thing in the car why this is not covered. Reviewed on: 14th July 2023
