Review of the Admiral, Car insurance:

Great helpful and cheap insurance

I have had this insurance company for years now. They have always been helpful in getting me the best price possible, and they are much cheaper than most other competitors. The best part is if you modify your policy (or add modifications on the car ) they accept this and only charge a £9.50 fee which is fantastic! Their webchat team are always super helpful and informative too. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Car insurance renewal.

Was due to renew my car insurance I was searching online using comparison sites and did find some attractive quotes. I received a call from Admiral as I was already with them, informed them their online quotes on both their own and comparison sites were double almost double of what I paid them for the previous year. After I informed the customer representative of this they aimed to find me the best price possible. After several days they contacted me to inform me of a price that may be of interest to me as I have had many years of no claims, and they priced it alongside home content insurance. The price was still £150 more than what I paid to Admiral the previous year, but my instincts told me that they are a better company than those who've quoted me cheaper. Admiral feels like a brand you can trust, so I decided to renew for another year, plus it saved me the hassle of handing over my details in full all again to a new provider. I felt like I was well taken care of, and the process was a smooth one. Never felt pressured to take up their products, and no continuous call backs like other companies I shall not mention.

Been with Admiral for nearly 10 years!

I have been with Admiral since I got my first car. Every year they either match other renewal costs in the market if I can find lower ones, or genuinely come in lower. always competitive on price and good quality insurance from a reputable company! Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

Good value and easy to amend any details

It was quick and easy to set up, verifying my no claims took ringing up as it had been inputted wrong (after evidence sent) they were lovely on the phone, fixed straight away and took £15 off the policy for the inconvenience of having to ring them. it was the cheapest fully comp option at the time Reviewed on: 15th April 2026

Jess, the customer service representative makes my day

Last year, I purchased a one-year car insurance policy for my brother-in-law, who just relocated to the UK, through Admiral car insurance, using my own bank account for payment. This year, when the policy was automatically renewed, he didn't notice the email notification. As a result, the renewal charge was mistakenly deducted from my bank account again. I called the customer service and spoke with Jess. She was very patient, helpful, and professional. After carefully verifying all the necessary information, she assured me that the matter would be handled immediately and arranged for a refund to be returned to my bank account within a few days. I truly appreciate the company's efficient and responsible handling of this situation. I'm writing this review to recognize their excellent service and professionalism. Thank you very much, Jess!

Not recommended

Got this insurance provider for my car and after for my home- since beginning I have problems to log in in my policy- few calls to technical support- answers still same as it is in progress and technical team will work on it. After 8 months of it i decided to not renewal my home policy. I informed them about it and left the policy expire and bought new one from different provider. 3 days ago I got mail about i own money for the renewal home policy what I didn't renew- called support- talk with representative and multiple time said I want cancel the renewal of the home policy again- ok they canceled it- fine. Today i found out they canceled my car policy as well - I never requested - for me they are done. I will definitely not recommend the provider to anyone - even the enemy.

Awful terrible need diazepam for this lot

No courtesy car no offer of payment no call backs won’t answer calls and when they do it’s f robots virtual assistance and clowns months in getting no where and no car Reviewed on: 9th February 2026

Absolutely appalling experience with Admiral.

Absolutely appalling experience with Admiral. I was quoted a higher renewal price on my multi-car policy, so I challenged it and was “generously” offered £150 off. Out of curiosity, I then went online — still with Admiral — and got a quote as a new customer that was over £300 cheaper than my renewal. So let’s be clear: loyal customers are penalised, while new customers are rewarded. There is zero loyalty and zero integrity in their pricing. Their own system proves they were overcharging me — and would have happily continued to do so if I hadn’t checked. My advice: never auto-renew with Admiral. Cancel and re-quote as a new customer or go elsewhere entirely. Ridiculous business practice and a complete waste of time. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2026

They are the worst car insurance company, I would rather stay without a car and depend on public transportation than insure my car with Admiral again. I felt betrayed. Reviewed on: 29th January 2026
