Review of the Esure, Car Insurance:

Check your renewal letter with Churchill

My car insurance was up for renewal and the incumbents Churchill put up my premium by 60%, no claims or callouts during the year. A quick comparison saw Esure give me the same price as the previous year with Churchill. I informed churchill of my quote and they had the cheek to try and match it. Always check your renewal letter as they tried to rip me off! Thank you Esure, I hope you are just as good for next year's renewal! Reviewed on: 29th August 2016

STAY AWAY

Made a claim in May this year for vandalism and impact while my car was parked at home. Initially they said yes they are able to accept my claim. A link was sent to upload my photos, this was done. Remember I stated this was in May. We are now in October after I noted silence on Esure end and with me having to make contact for update months later! The lady whom I spoke to told me "we do not make outbound calls, I should contact them" I was so shocked! moving on, she then asked if I would like to continue- the next day I brought my vehicle to the garage only to be told that Esure noted something else in my claim compare to what was presented (impact damage to my car). I then contact Esure to rectify the issue only to be told that they won't approve all damages. They report that the damages on my car are from different impact when in fact have they looked at my submitted photos back in May they would have seen that ALL was reported on the same day which suggest it's the same impact! one of the impact is a broken light which result in the light not working which is unsafe to drive as drive with my children ! They confirmed I now have to put in a separate claim, why should I have to do that when the impact happen the same time? the way I have been treated is unfair. They failed to take liability and own up to their negligence, this is from May! STAY AWAY Reviewed on: 7th October 2024

AVOID AVOID AVOID!

Had a drunk driver crash into my parked car outside my house on 20th August. After an initial phone call all that happened was the offer of a courtesy car. I really didn't want to lose my car to write off so really wanted to wait and see what their damage assessment would be etc before being locked into a claim with them. Fast forward 4 weeks and absolutely zero contact from them. Finally after writing a bad review on Trustpilot they got in contact. Had taken my car to a local place for assessment of damage which I have shared with them. Two weeks later and just more radio silence from them. Utterly useless - how they are a "service" I have no idea. Will NEVER insure with eSure or other companies owned by them again even if it's the cheapest option. AVOID AVOID AVOID!

Easy experience to setup insurance. Could easily add on an extra driver and the cost was more reasonable than other insurers. Reviewed on: 14th September 2024

Worst Company I've ever dealt with in my Life!!

Esure has provided one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever encountered. They’ve been completely unresponsive, imposed unfair charges, and left me in the dark throughout the entire process. If you value your time, money, and sanity, I would highly recommend looking elsewhere for insurance. Reviewed on: 9th September 2024
