My advice is to avoid this insurer! Paid my insurance but then got the "We need to validate your details" email. A couple of minor changes later my quote was more than doubled, I felt li... Read more Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Robbers

Shocking company. Started a policy to begin 2 days after paying for it. Got a call 4 days after start date to say that not all details are correct so they asked the same questions I answered when I applied, changed the answers against my will and charged me a tonne extra. No choice. Fast forward a week and I've just come home to a letter stating they're cancelling my policy because they "still require clarification on some of the answers I provides online". The letter was made 8 days ago and the policy ended yesterday. No emails, no calls to say this issue has been resolved in the meantime. No notice of this letter being sent out when they last called me. I've been sat on hold to the number in the letter for 15mins and still waiting. I could've ridden out today uninsured without knowing. Absolutely shocking service and robbing company. The only upside was that I got to ride my partners bike whilst waiting for mine.

NIGHTMARE

Please, if you're a foreigner, don't choose this insurance! They are not only racist, but they will ask for the same documents not once but 3 or 4 times, and you'd feel like you haven't been insured and you've been driving like a criminal. FIND INSURANCE SOMEWHERE ELSE, THIS IS RACIST, SEGREGATIONIST, AND EXPENSIVE! Reviewed on: 1st July 2022

Scam of a company

Avoid!!! Cancelled my policy and refused refund. Go to umbudsman let’s get them closed down. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2022

They are pilfering money by intimidating people

Their business model is giving cheap insurance. Then pilfering money by intimidating people. 1) They canceled none sense. 2)Canceled due to my address is not the same as my driver's license. 3)They asked for documents. 4)They did not like documents. 5)My locked garage seems not locked for them so they want me to pay more.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

Beware you have been warned !!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever you do, do not go with this company. Bunch of crooks which is mild to say least. Policy number Policy Number 52177462591 so you know who I am. Insurance was paid to start today, recieved email urgently to contact them as they said my insurance could be nil and void. Contacted them and they said that the bike I insured was a Kawasaki W800 cafe and not a W800 only however when I put the registration in it clearly said the cafe model so I didnt know what they were on about therefore they could not charge me anymore on this matter. So then they tried to get me on being retired which I also declared and that I had a part-time job which also I told them and that is what my quote was based on. They tried to charge an extra £70 to keep the policy or cancel for £60 plus £28.27 for one days insurance. I argued my case asked for line manager and low and behold not available. When I said small claims court Anika who I was talking with said they will drop the £60 charge and so I will only have to pay the one days insurance which is out of order for a void policy but I dont seem to have any choice to get away from this crooked company. Beware you have been warned!!!!!!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2022

Scammers - beware

The same as all the other reviews - you purchase a policy online and are then asked to phone them to clarify some details. They then scrutinise your details and ask for more money. On asking to cancel there is a £60 admin fee (buried somewhere in there t&c’s) Do not buy anything through this company Reviewed on: 26th January 2022

Terrible experience - are they even legal ?

I had to find new Motorbike insurance after MCE (Gibraltar) went into administration. When running comparison, Bikesure came up with the lowest quotes on Gocompare. Clicked through and was taken to the Bikesure website (no options were given to change any details passed through from Gocompare website). I purchased a new insurance starting from 1st Feb - problems started here !! A day later, I got a message waring that insure might be cancelled and asking to call them back. When I rang them back, I was told that I am going to be charged an additional £50 odd as I had not declared a third party claim. I went back onto the data entered on gocompare and there you go - claim was always there !!. Upon challenging this, they backed off (They couldn't clearly identify, where they received the data from). Then they started their pressure selling to get me to spend another £70 odd to buy their excess protection, I declined which they were not happy about. This was followed by a lengthy description of all the ways in which a claim will be invalid. At this point, I had started losing confidence in them as an insurer. Just felt like they were lining up excuses to get out of any claims. I was then asked to provide a mileage declaration form and a license code, which I submitted. The next day, I received another email demanding £78. Apparently they have my test pass date on record as 14/07/21 where as the actual test pass date is 09/08/21. I again went back onto the comparison websites to check the data, I was not asked to enter a precise date anywhere on the forms. Gocompare simply asks for a test pass month. So Bikesure now wants to charge a premium increase of £38 + £35 admin charge for changes to the policy, all this 14 days before the policy has even started. By this point, I had had enough, rang up and asked to cancel the policy, thinking I am still within the 14 days cooling-off period. Surprise surprise, they have a £60 charge for cancellation buried within their terms and conditions !! I was treated like an inconvenience by their customer service, so I am now proactively sharing my experience on googlemaps, trustpilot, FB motorbike groups and more !! So fellow motorbikers, here is my experience. If you have clicked through and paid bikesure - you are done for. They've got you one way or other !! Bikesure customer ref: 59036612 Policy number: 2775438MC036616 I have given one-star and shared my experience, you be the judge. Happy to share their communications publicly if needed.

Crooks - £65 admin charge

Purely and simply crooks. £65 admin charges? For making a few clicks? Purchased policy through money.com, location of bike overnight gave 3 options, I chose garage as private property was an option. Therefore policy invalid. Requested refund - £65 admin charge. In these current times, Covid, mental health issues there is no justification for a £65 admin charge. Reviewed on: 12th January 2022

Extortion and fraud

Terrible, terrible, terrible company, on the outside they appear thorough and professional but once you've bought the policy, they start to implement ridiculous validation checks, checking my occupation, looking for my garage on Google earth, then threatening to cancel my.policy if I didn't purchase "approved" security device from their own security company, horrible customer service totally unreasonable, still after cancelling my.policy they have tried to extort 80 quid from me, absolutely criminal so don't use them.
