About this product

Here at Smart Money People, we collect Churchill car insurance reviews to give you some insight into what you can expect as a Churchill customer.

Churchill was founded in 1989 as one of the UK’s first direct motor insurers. Since then, it has expanded its range of products, now offering a wide variety of insurance policies, from pet insurance to landlord insurance. Churchill offers car and van insurance, as well as specialist policies for young drivers and a telematics policy named DriveSure.

Everyone has different needs when it comes to a car insurance policy. Perhaps you’re happy to pay slightly extra to protect your No Claims Discount? Or maybe you require breakdown cover or legal protection? If you’re looking to save money on your renewal, Churchill’s DriveSure telematics policy may be worth considering. Whatever your needs, check out the Churchill car insurance reviews on Smart Money People to see what existing customers have to say about their policies.

I WOULD like to highlight my experience with Churchill insurance A Churchill driver hot my car a nd addicted full liability should be an easy claim to settle nealy 4 weeks on I'm been lied to ai have been told by 10 different advisors from Churchill and gopart that my car is a write off. I was offered standard focus price 2500 back for my car after proving my modifications and arguing my case I was finally informed by liem Wilson good news Mr Robinson we now value your car at 8.000 we will take your car and pay 8000 i just need the lead engineer to confirm nothing has changed Low and behold now that my car has a value of 8k it's suddenly replaierble and Churchill will deduct 3k from the 8k I can keep the car and its no longer deemed as a write off very strange given the last 4 weeks been told car was written off and worth 2500 I was not happy but expected the news from a joe Butler who told me he was a head engineer and his new assessment stated the car could be fixed for 3.000 so he is taking from the 8.000 I told him I was not happy but to settle the claim I would take the deduction and settle the claim Joe informed me he was processing a payment same day of 5300 the car is no longer written off. 24 hours later I receive an email stating Churchill have sent me a cheque for 2800 and the car is written off almost the opposite ti what was said and 3k short almost of the AGREED payment. Churchill tried to say my bank details where incorrect so they had to pot a cheque 5 days on no cheque no payment no call back from management no contact what so ever. I have since made contact with Churchill 3 times i have been told twice a manager would call me back in 24 hours 5 days later no contact no miscalls nothing. Yesterday I received another email from Churchill stating they had send a payment and case was closed Absolutely horrendous business to deal with I hope no one else has to endure what I have been though in the last 4 weeks Needless to say I have requested a full transcript of all phone calls and I will be escalating to the insurance ombismam Please avoid Churchill ypu ahev been warned Reviewed on: 18th February 2025

Out of my 6 years of driving I will never ever be going back to Churchill let me run this down for you started with the company from July were now in November I've rang up 5 times over the last 4 months for them to tell me they have a IT problem and they will ring me back never heard nothing back decided to ring back for the last time In this November for them to tell me there's a defect with my insurance. After already taking a payment off me they then tell me they need to cancel my insurance start a new one and take another payment again in the same month with no refund after all I wanted was my no claims discount protecting adding on which I already added on from the start then once the insurance started they decided it wasn't protected after 4 months of IT issues they tell me oh we can now add protected no claims that they also confirmed I put it on in the first place to also say sorry for the amount of times ive called and no call back for them to turn around and say yes we can add it but need to cancel and take another payment with just a sorry. That's my last time using this company and stay away never had a issue with anyone else apart from these shocking Reviewed on: 21st November 2024

Churchill changed my policy without my permission

Churchill changed my policy to remove breakdown cover without my permission. I called to remove DriveSure from my policy because it is a massive pain where you have to input every time you are in a vehicle that is not driven by you. When I called to remove it, they also removed my breakdown cover without notifying me! I called to tell them but they didn’t believe me and they said they would have to listen to the call back. Each deadline they set to get back to me they missed. I called back 3 times and each time they had not investigated. Calling them is a pain, so many automated security question that are then repeated as soon as you speak to somebody. They couldn’t even give me quote to add breakdown back on so I have no breakdown cover at the minute. Having to avoid long drives for now until they can sort it. That’s the holiday ruined this weekend. Reviewed on: 8th November 2024

Quote rose over £250 between Compare the Market & Churchill On 24th October 2024, I was forwarded to Churchill via Compare the Market for car insurance. However once forwarded to the Churchill site; the price jumped by over £250. I then queried this increase via a chat box agent who requested that I send him a screenshot of the Compare the Market quote. I did this but he could not explain the increase and suggested that I phone up and speak to Churchill direct!!! I wasted over an hour with him attempting to take out insurance; but lost faith with Churchill; so went to Aviva via Compare the Market and within 15 minutes took out my car insurance. No hassle with Aviva, price as quoted by Compare the Market. Simples! Reviewed on: 26th October 2024

Good customer service with fairly rapid response time on the phone. Not yet had to make a claim, so no experience of that. Reviewed on: 11th October 2024

Have Insurers lost the plot?

My policy is due to be renewed soon but the quote I received has an incease of nearly 40%. When challenged I was immediately offered a discount of £50. However I was able to get slightly better cover through a comparison website at marginally less than I paid last year. The business model is flawed as there is no loyalty to customers rather one of quoting a randomly high premium and seeing if it is noticed. Reviewed on: 6th September 2024

4 yeard with Churchill Insurance

I have Car Insurance with Churchill for 4 years now and they always met the need. If another insurance company offered a lower price then Churchill price-mached it and so they kept me their customer. Would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 5th September 2024
