Be warned - if you insure your car annually with Lancaster Insurance and then have to cancel 50 days into your policy because you change your car and they won't insure it, you won't be due a refund. They just tell you it's tough luck and refer you endlessly to their terms and conditions. I won't be insuring any of my vehicles with Lancaster Insurance again. Read more Read less

Ended up being charged the full year amount for 86 days cover after cancelling the policy due to sale of the vehicle. They only 'refunded' 6 months of the premium for 86 days cover and then the cancellation charge convieniently was exactly the amount of that 'refund'. Will never use for any of my vehicles again.

I only hope that you never have to claim. Their claims handling procedures are hopelessly inefficient and totally unprofessional. I have to wait hours on the phone listening to dreadful music and recorded messages "your call is important to us..."! I have been given different email addresses for repair estimates and never receive reply. Don't touch them with a bargepole!! Read more Read less
