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

Proven good insurance

I had my car stolen only 1 week after joining admiral! They were very careful about asking questions which might allow them to avoid paying out, but I had no secrets. They said it would take 8 weeks to pay out they paid in 7 weeks. The claims procces was very clear and well organised. I have insured with them again. Reviewed on: 5th November 2022

Terrible service

Phone lines are understaffed. Online claims processing didn't work. When you get through to someone, they need to transfer you and put you on hold again. Also rediculously expensive. Reviewed on: 4th November 2022

Got charge a £25 cancellation fee, not impressed.

As I didn't renew with them I was charged a £25 cancellation fee! Really unimpressed, will go out of my way to never us Admiral Insurance again and will certainly tell friends and family about this ridiculous rule. Reviewed on: 4th November 2022

Really easy to sign up

Really easy to sign up, the app is really easy to navigate and when it came up to renewal they don’t hike up the price like others do! Will be staying with them for the foreseeable future as long as things stay as they are! Reviewed on: 29th October 2022

It fulfills the legal requirement but that's it

Your vehicle isn't really insured because they will try everything to avoid processing your claim. It's nearly 11 weeks since I was involved in a no-fault accident, and they have done nothing whatsoever to help and everything in their power to hinder. I don't have any experience of making insurance claims, but I wouldn't advise anyone to use Admiral unless it's very, very cheap and its 3rd party only (you're not getting anything more than 3rd party only when you pay the extra for fully comp). Best advice is to steer well clear ! Reviewed on: 19th October 2022

Great customer service

Appreciate it’s a little more difficult in getting through at the moment, but when I have done, twice in last few months have had great customer service. Patient and helpful. Hope the renewal figures match the service on November Reviewed on: 16th October 2022

Best insurer I have ever had

I have been with admiral for so many years now have never had a reason to want to leave. Always easy to get through to on the phone for renewals or queries. I had to make a claim once and was very straightforward Reviewed on: 14th October 2022

Best insurer I have been with

Admiral have been amazing since I joined them, their staff are always polite and so helpful and nothing is ever a bother. I don’t think I’d leave Admiral unless it was due to financial reasons. Reviewed on: 14th October 2022

Easy Friendly Competitive Car Insurance

Easy no nonsense competitive quotes. They keep you up to date with news throughout the year and give discounts the more products you buy. Reviewed on: 13th October 2022

Avoid this insurance company

I had accident a month ago. Still waiting for repair. Called them many times, always waiting at least 40 minutes before I was able to talk to someone.No respond. The worse insurance company I ever had Reviewed on: 12th October 2022
