Review of the Admiral, Car insurance:

Great helpful and cheap insurance

5
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

Great value

Admiral is already one of the cheapest companies on searches, but combining car, home and travel on the one policy, saves you even more money. Can’t fault that! Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

They don't like to make it easy for you

I had car insurance already with Admiral and after several phone calls from them selling me the multi car "deal" I gave in and moved my cars in the household to them. Then later the renewal quote arrived and it was as expected a major jump up in premium cost. A quick comparisons of other insurers for the cars individually I was shocked to find it a lot cheaper. Tried to cancel with the bot online and as usual “computer said no”. Had to ring up and speak to an agent which after much faffing around, including being transfer to another representative I did price got to something similar to quotes found online. Having spent well over an hour on all this I gave in and renewed with Admiral as was at the end of my tether. In hindsight wish I hadn’t as realised when going over the documents a few weeks later that to make it “a more competitive price” the value to car had lowered, estimated mileage was lowered, and named driver had been dropped. I really don’t know how they get away with continuing to advertise that their multi car deal is cheaper when it clearly isn’t. Looking forward to when I can leave and even made a note in the Calendar for next year saying “do not auto renew” Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Best insurance company

This is one of the best insurance companies I’ve ever had reasonable prices and outstanding customer service I would recommend anyone to choose admiral Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Keep coming back to them

5
Overall Admiral keep offering the best price on the market, good product with a good level of cover. On the occasion you claim they are quick and efficient to handle your claim. The one fly in the ointment is the online/app servicing of your account is poor with continued issues and problems. But overall good product and service. Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Both ends!

Recently experienced both sides of the insurance claim. Someone bumped my car and they had insurance cover with Admiral. Claim went through without any hassle from both sides. Very efficient and effective. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Unwilling to negotiate on price

2
Hi, I was looking for affordable car insurance as there appears to be a huge, sudden and unjustified increase in the prices. I was unable to access or accept my quote online and decided to ring instead with the intention of getting a discount on my original quote. However, despite explaining that the price continues to increase, even after a few days, there was no discount available and the operator refused to offer a reduction. This was extremely disappointing as many of us, especially those from a vulnerable and low income household, are facing heightened costs. To make matters, I was then being pressured into accepting building/ contents insurance and if I chose to go ahead with that, I would receive a post-offer discount on my car insurance (which I had already paid for). I felt that this was a somewhat deceptive and underhanded method of trying to procure more money from me. Put simply, you were not really interested in looking after your customer as much as trying to fill your own pockets. Thanks. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Cheapest renewal, great if you have to use them

I had a minor incident with my car and a wall. Getting it fixed through Admiral was very simple, I didn't have to do much at all! Also, with renewals going up this year, Admiral were able to match prices elsewhere to keep my custom. Great service. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023
