Review of the LV (Liverpool Victoria), Car Insurance:

Good product and easy administration

Good product and easy administration Reviewed on: 10th October 2024

Renewal of multi car policy very reasonable

After one year on a multi car policy (wife & self) renewal had a modest rise. Phoned to remove hire cars from policy and after some questions they removed the hire cars and further reduced my premiums. Compared to similar cover with Admiral they were considerably cheaper. Reviewed on: 12th May 2019

Can't get hold of them!

Trying to change my address. The website is just an advert and provides no functionality. Can't get through on the phone, they are always experiencing "heavy call volumes". They need more staff or fewer customers! Reviewed on: 24th April 2019

Cancellation threats

Despite resolving a premium increase due wife claims on separate policy entirely by removing her as named driver. Today received threatening letter of cancellation or pay a increased premium I have asked for apology which I was told it may not be possible Reviewed on: 1st February 2019

Uninterested

Customer service is uninterested. Had a bump (my fault) with a rusty old van. The rust bucket caused damage to my car only. Yet he put a claim in and LV paid out and refused to look into it or acknowledge the photographic evidence i provided. Dramatically increased my premium. Never again. Make sure to protect no claim bonus and fit a dash cam! Reviewed on: 30th December 2018

Helpful

There is always someone who can advise you. They are not unnecessarily expensive. Reviewed on: 17th December 2018

Staff very efficient and friendly.

Changed over last year and expected a hike in the premium which transpired to be quite modest Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Apalling customer service AVOID

Added another vehicle to an existing policy in September 2018. Hit by 3rd party who have admitted liability (drivers door hit). Car sent to their approved repairer. Car has come back now with no warranty because they have sprayed the wing to colour match (car 2 years old). Paintwork horrendous having already chipped. Taken vehicle to Burrows for inspection. LV sent out their own person to do the inspection. Only authorising 2 door seals. Says paint work satisfactory?! Clearly not when the claims advisor says on the phone that customer relations have seen the photos and will put me in a position as per before the accident. Three days later your telling me your not responsible for anything other than 2 door seals. Over promise and under deliver. Good job calls are recorded! What are you going to do about the warranty issue now. The car is on finance and the dealership won’t take the car back in that state! Avoid LV and the cowboys who carried out the repairs - Just Car Clinic. Will be taking the matter to FOS. Reviewed on: 27th November 2018

Will do their best not to pay out

Tried to make a claim for rain damage during some *VERY* heavy rain I was told that because their records showed it hadn't rained "enough" during that day, that they wouldn't honor my claim, even though the torrential downpour made local news! Another disgraceful company that will always do their best to avoid paying out The lady answering the claims call was also exceptionally rude and patronizing. AVOID PS - Note to LV. Do NOT BOTHER replying to this saying something generic like "oh sorry to hear about this. Please email us at we-dont-care @ lv.com to discuss further" because realistically you don't care and that kind of reply is the biggest cop out ever. You have my records on your system... if you care about resolving this YOU CALL ME. Reviewed on: 12th November 2018

Would give no stars if I could

Would have given no stars if I could. I was just trying to help a friend who has a basic bank account pay for her car insurance. They would not take payment from me as the card is registered to a different address. This is discrimination against those who have less money than others. She has the cash, just not a credit card. Now, not only has she been discriminated against for being less well off than some, but she will have to pay more elsewhere! Reviewed on: 1st October 2018

Easy to use, multi car insurance

So easy to get insurance for both cars at the same time, and at a highly competitive price. Would definitely use again, as long as the price doesn't shoot up at renewal.... Reviewed on: 23rd September 2018
