Review of the Direct Line, Car Insurance:

Great Site, easy to use

Went on this site to get a quote, it was really easy and simple to use, some ins site are so complicated. Got a quote in seconds, better than comparison sites Reviewed on: 26th September 2016

Motability/ Direct Line.

I am a Motability customer and insured through them by Direct Line. Very helpful, responded to me very quickly when mistakenly locked car keys in boot of car. Sent engineer to home within hours, took car to local dealer by transporter and bought replacement car to use in interim. Really helpful customer services and l was able to attend all forthcoming hospital appointments rather than cancel and rejoin waiting lists. Reviewed on: 11th October 2024

They've been great, polite and helpful.

They've been great, polite and helpful. I made a claim and their organisation if having my car fixed was amazing. Never accept the initial price, get a quote from them, shop around and call back and haggle. They will reduce the price. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

Customer service is excellent! Very friendly and knowledgable. They also answer very quickly. Reviewed on: 25th August 2024

Diect Line - good up until this year!

I've been with Direct Line for some years - it's been the best deal for me so far and, importantly, allows me to add my daughter or another driver when family visit from Spain and borrow my car for their holiday. But...I've just seen the quote for my car insurance from September and I will certainly be shopping around as the hike is just unacceptable! So... sorry but unless I can get a better quote from Direct Line I'll be moving on! Reviewed on: 25th August 2024
