Review of the AXA, Car insurance:

Been over 2 years since accident.

Been over 2 years since accident. Went to court and other guy admitted liability . Since then axa have still got my case open and my no claims is still affected . Never reply to emails . Terrible customer service Reviewed on: 28th December 2024

Good for the first year

As with all insurance companies Axa lure you in at the outset with a reasonable quote for car insurance, then at renewal that reasonable price is hiked considerably. Having said that we needed to add an additional driver for a weeks holiday and it was very quick and easy to do, and judging by the research I did, at reasonable cost too. Easy to view all documents on line plus plenty of reminders via text and email. Surprisingly easy to cancel too, I expected a phone call and hard sell but I cancelled the renewal quote online. I've no idea what they are like in a crisis, which is the real test. Reviewed on: 21st July 2017

Fantastic 5 star service

I have been using axa for 4 years now. From the moment I passed my driving test they have always been the cheapest insurance. I had to take time off work once and couldn't make one of my monthly payments. The customer service I received was 2nd to none. they were so understanding of my circumstances and helped me get sorted out quickly without hesitation. if anyone asks about insurance I will always tell them how outstanding axa are Reviewed on: 15th July 2017

Staff only care about their bonuses which we as customers are paying for! Scandalous! Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Easy

While I have been with axa it has been easy to manage and amend online very user friendly Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Not impressed

1
They were ok up to a point however they cancelled my policy as soon as i moved address which has put me off ever recommending them. This left me with the inconvenience of finding a new insurer before the end of my premium expiry date with no notice. Upon speaking to adviser I was told they do not insurer cars within my new postcode and therefore my insurance would become invalid from that day onwards and I would need to look elsewhere for cover. Not good. Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Insane excesses

2
Was going to change my insurance over to axa as they topped the comparison sites in terms of price. However on closer inspection, the excess amount was more than the policy price itself! Stupid. Reviewed on: 22nd March 2017
