Amazing Service

So so helpful. Would happily recommend to anyone Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Easy to use and great value

I have been with admiral for 3 years in total. When it came to renewing they doubled my premium but after getting a quote elsewhere and informing admiral they matched it and I paid the same two years running. It’s easy to add modifications and to see everything on the app. Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Prices increased but discount given.

£130 increase in renewal, rang and got a discount of £60. Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Been pretty good to me. No problems

Had them for roughly two years. Not had any issues. I wasn't happy when it came to renewal but when I contacted them they made sure I left happy. They even called me back to ask how I found everything. Never made a claim but did get my windows fixed. It was a strait forward process and I can only recommend Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Easy to use

I like the app which tells me I've been driving well and gives me a discount Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Great company

I just joined and so far I don't have any complaints. Our interactions have been seamless Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Do not use them

I was involved in a small accident which I reported the same day. I was promised that the insurance company will call me back soon. But there is no anything happened since then. I am spending another hour on the phone, they transfer me from one to another department adn then disconnect the line. So, basically, now I am forced to sell my smashed car and buy another drivable car for my expense. I will never insure anything with Admiral again Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Admiral avoiding claims - despicable

Just been involved a fatal car accident. I am not to blame and no damage to the car, however the police have impounded the car as part of their investigations. I am told it will be months, potentially years, before the car is released. And yet, Admiral tell me they do not cover for this event so I will have to foot the bill for a replacement car for this time period. So I'm not at fault, the car isn't damaged, yet I have to foot the considerable bill. How is this fair Admiral? What is insurance for if not for these types of events? Reviewed on: 15th May 2023

Extorting customers, very unethical company

Trying to charge me £70 to change a DOB error (from xx/02/1989 to xx/03/1989). Absolutely crazy, £70 to change one number. Worst customer service experience. I initially called to try and add another car to my policy and they tried to charge me £70 for doing nothing! Never going to use this company again!!! Reviewed on: 2nd May 2023

Admiral should rename themselves pirates

Do not take out a travel insurance policy with these charlatans or you'll regret it. I was admitted to St Luke's Medical Centre in Quezon City, the Philippines, in July suffering from dehydration and high blood pressure. In addition to charging me for medications that I was not actually prescribed, the Centre provided me with an inaccurate medical report and other documentation. For example, the Director of Emergency Care, Dr Arnel M. Tolosa, has claimed in writing that I had reported my symptoms on two occasions to the hospital - a complete and utter lie and I can prove it. More seriously, they wrongly claimed that my condition had been caused by excessive alcohol consumption. In fact, I was stone-cold sober when I was admitted and had only imbibed a small amount of alcohol some seven hours before. The much more likely cause was food poisoning or a bad reaction to heat, which staff acknowledged to me verbally at the time. However, Admiral, being monumentally dishonest, unscrupulous and money-grabbing charlatans, have taken St Luke's fabrications at face value and are refusing to pay out my insurance claim for the treatment and the changes to my travel plans it necessitated. This has cost me around £1700. While Admiral refuse to accept the obvious flaws in St Luke's documentation, I can provide eyewitnesses who will swear on affidavits that I had ingested a tiny amount of alcohol that would not have caused my condition. I can also obtain a second medical opinion that would contradict the judgements made by St Luke's staff. But of course Admiral will not accept this evidence because it would compel them to pay up what they owe me. Moreover, their organisation is riddled with incompetence from top to bottom. I have had a separate complaint upheld about being misled time and again by their phone agents. Their compensation offer? An insulting £50. I have been travelling for work and pleasure for 20 years and never have I come across a travel insurance provider this greedy, unhelpful and downright mendacious. Avoid them at all cost - or you'll find it'll cost you an awful lot. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2023
