Admiral Comprehensive Car Insurance that's worthless

1
Whilst insured comprehensively through Admiral, a woman driving round a corner unchecked hit my car head on. You could hear damage to both my power steering & the gearbox as well as damaging my front bumper, bonnet & wing. The car was drivable the short distance home, but after being repaired it was painted plain black & not metallic, the power steering was only listened to not investigated as per the York garage it was taken to. They repainted the bumper, returned the car with a loose headlight, still a whining driving pump & a gearbox was noisy. Finally when it was returned, a few months after the gearbox failed & I was forced to sell the car at a loss. Admiral throughout never listened or believed me or my wife of the issues raised. No apology was offered & the car repairer couldn't have been less interested. It was more about how quickly they could turn the car around. Reviewed on: 4th September 2025

5 Years of Reliable Service

5
I have been with Admiral Insurance for around 5 years now, and I’m consistently satisfied with their services. Their prices are competitive, and the renewal process is always clear and straightforward. The iPhone app is very user-friendly, giving me easy access to my policy details and documents whenever I need them. Customer service has always been quick, professional, and solution-oriented. I also went through a small claim process in the past, and Admiral handled it smoothly with excellent communication and efficiency. Overall, Admiral gives me peace of mind when it comes to my car insurance – a trustworthy and professional company that truly deserves 5 stars! Reviewed on: 4th September 2025

I assume, looking at the reviews most must be AI generated bots.This is a joke of a company. Closed when it should be open. Can't access policy online yet sends emails to me!. Loops you eternally to the online account which is not accessable. Phone number not working. Online contact link doesn't work. Will never use again Reviewed on: 16th August 2025

I insured my disco 2024-2025 ,easy to deal with at a cost of £1100. I have not had any claims on any insurance policy so I received the maximum no claim’s discount on my protected bonus.. six months into my policy I had a my fault claim ( I caught the van rear light when he pulled out into oncoming traffic and then stopped suddenly. The damage was 1 new rear broken glass and bumper bracket. ( maximum cost £500 ) I supplied dash can evidence of the collision which showed the very poor condition of the 17 year old builders van ,the stoplight was not working I informed Admiral insurance that the van had no MOT but I was told that made no difference to the claim against myself.. The claim was settled with a £2448 payment . The van is back on the road being driven by the 3 party . I have voiced my displeasure to Admiral The van has only just been MOT after 4 months later even though he has driven it for the last 4 month . The builder has put the van back on the road at the cost too my increased premium.My new renewal has just been increased to £1900 and other insurance companies being from £1250 -£4000 and other companies refusing to insure me .
