Really helpful, very polite staff. Good prices, but they are not on comparison sites you have to check separately. Claims dealt with quickly and efficiently. Reviewed on: 14th July 2016

They are expensive and uncompromising on negotiating price, but they are very easy to deal with. Reviewed on: 8th July 2016

Multicar insurance

4
I cannot recommend them enough if you are insuring more than one vehicle, I appreciate everyone's circumstances are different but I saved a couple of hundred quid this year by switching to them. My wife was already insured and it made sense to contact them. My only criticism is they are cheaper online than on the telephone and for some reason then cannot match the online price. Go via a cashback site and the deal gets better. Recommended Reviewed on: 29th June 2016

Simply the best cover possible topped off with the lowest possible premium

5
I had been with Aviva for my car insurance for approaching a year and my renewal was due.I signed into my on line account to check what the renewal premium would be expecting the worst to be astounded to see that in fact the premium for the next year was £3 less than the previous year.Not a great deal less but after reading forum horror stories of huge price hikes on renewal I was more than pleasantly surprised.A totally refreshing experience in this day and age.

Excellent renwal

5
My car insurance was up for renwal and they dealt with everything. I didn't have to do anything which with my busy schedule is fantastic. Reviewed on: 24th June 2016

Smashed my current renewal quote

4
My renewal came through this year at about 300 more expensive than the previous year. Though this was following an accident and subsequent claim, so i had expected it to rise, I still got a quote from Aviva which actually came in 100 quid cheaper than my previous year! I then got 60odd quid cash back too which was nice bonus. their online portal is one of the better ones i have seen too - you can upload docs there and generally get everything you need relatively easily.

Easy to organise, brill customer service

5
Nice and easy when renewing car insurance, every time I speak to customer service, they are always helpful and polite. Reviewed on: 18th May 2016

Good prices and service

4
Customer service is great and they really helped me fins the best deal (even if it did mean a black box in my car) Reviewed on: 10th May 2016

Found policy that protects 3 years NCB.

5
The best rated company that offers No Claims Protection after 3 years for £40. (An offer that should be promoted more.) A very easy website to navigate and get a quote which is saved for 60 days. Not the most competitive prices and does not appear on comparison sites unlike it's sister company QuoteMeHappy. Reviewed on: 4th April 2016
