Avoid!

1
Been with company for many years but they have gone downhill rapidly in last couple of years, both in customer service and competitive pricing. Two years ago on renewal this company added a second person to the policy of an elderly friend and trebled the cost. I spotted the letter and got him to phone them. Second person removed and policy reduced to double original cost. Phoned around, got better prices which they then matched. Last year, price doubled again but renewal letter not received and friend didn't notice. This year policy up another 50% to over £2000 and another person added to the policy. Company admit the addition of 2nd person is error but £700 increase is due to claim for minor scratch of £200 ( which they were merely informed about but were not meant to pay), despite still having 4 years no claims. Shopping around gets quote back to £800 elsewhere so will no longer be using them. Reviewed on: 14th August 2016
