Review of the Admiral, Car insurance:

A Breeze

Easy and speedy application with decent pricing through multi policy service. Operators are amazing at simplifying insurance jargon and will really make the job of insurance easy. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Best insurance provider in UK especially for the first timers

The services I got from the Admiral being to new comer to the UK was fantastic Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Always there when you need them.

I renewed my car insurance with them as I have always had an excellent experience. When I had an accident a few years ago they were excellent and got me a courtesy car very quickly and the repairs were down quickly as well. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Everything I could wish for from an insurance provider.

I have been a customer for two years and I am about to renew my insurance for a third year. It offers a full comprehensive coverage which I require, the rate is competitive but fortunately enough I have not had to use their services. They have been reaching out on occasion with promotional offers and I have also taken an year travel insurance at a very good value for money. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Great car insurance

I've been with Admiral for all of my cars since I first got my licence and they have always been good to me. They were brilliant when I had a 'no fault' accident which wrote off my car, I was expecting a battle to get the pay out as that's what you always hear with insurers but there was no push back at all and they paid the full amount quickly. The app is great, super easy to view your documents and I've always been able to speak to a real person when I've phoned about my renewal quote. Overall, very happy and have no reason to go anywhere else. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Easy

Admiral is easy to use and for me has had one of the best comparisons for payment. It has been the cheapest that I found when I was insuring my car as a learner driver and then again as a new driver. It was easy to change my insurance cover and any time I have needed to make adjustments it has been super easy online or over the phone as well. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Good at getting back to you

Fortunately, I never had to make a claim with them but they were pretty good at getting back to me. Unfortunately, their premium went up considerably this year and so I had to go elsewhere. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Excellent

I had an accident last year, contact led Admiral, and they arranged to fix both cars with few days Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Price good

Been with admiral a few years. never had to claim on insurance but have used breakdown cover a few times (now via AA). Price is always ok, renewal is easy. No issues. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Does not live up to its name

They must be one of the worst car insurance businesses in the UK. I changed my car from a Honda CRV with a 27 group rating to a Peugeot 2008 with a 14 group rating and my insurance costs rose by over £100 a year. When I queried this they said car grouping was meaningless and they were not prepared to discuss their underwriting secrets with anyone, When I objected again they told me the matter was closed and that if I had an accident then the monthly payments would be cancelled and I would have to pay the remaining installments as a lump sum, The lady was arrogant and had certainly no customer service skills, Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Renewals

I have been a customer for home and car insurance many times over the years with Admiral and one thing that really annoys me is the renewal quotes are always really high but when you phone them they then apply discounts you are entitled to. Why not give me the discount straight away and stop trying to overcharge customers. I know many insurance companies do this and it isn't unique to Admiral but it really does annoy me as as I have been a loyal customer. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023
