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

Huge mistake of age.com 2024 switch of Underwriter.

I was with age.com for many years and very satisfied with their ageous underwriter. In 2024 with great fanfare age.com announced it was switching to LV, whose road /home assistance was with Brittania. After 50 years with the AA I reluctantly swopped as the LV cover was cheaper. This year, LV has quoted a renewal sum of £794.19 against last year’s quote of £489.45! They state ‘Your LV Car Insurance won’t renew unless you contact us.’ How many age.com members can afford that increase? I’m livid at having ceased my gold membership with the AA and am sure I’m not alone feeling cast aside. Reviewed on: 19th January 2025

Reasonable Premium reduction

After receiving a Renewal Quotation which was a substantial increase on previous year, I was offered a reduction of about £70. This resulted in a revised renewal premium that was very competitive. Overall a good experience. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023

Consistently good value

Used comparison sites for three years but LV are always best cover with breakdown included at cheapest price. Reviewed on: 17th August 2023

I'm deeply disappointed and frustrated

I'm deeply disappointed and frustrated with LV's home insurance claim process. We faced an unfortunate incident with a broken internal pipe on the 7th of June. LV chose to send multiple representatives from FFDR Limited, none of whom were able to rectify the leak. By the time the British Gas team arrived and fixed the issue within a mere 10 minutes, considerable damage had been inflicted upon our property. Now, two months have elapsed, and we're still waiting for LV to honour our claim. Despite swiftly collecting an excess of £350 from us over the last 35 days, there's been zero progress. To add to the inconvenience, they plan to strip down our kitchen ceiling and wallpapers, yet expect us to continue living in the property amid the chaos, showcasing a blatant disregard for customer safety. Communication is almost nonexistent. Every single update requires us to chase them down, only adding to the stress of the situation. We've made the decision to cancel all our insurance policies with them. It's infuriating how such powerful companies seemingly operate with impunity. Avoid LV's home insurance claim team at all costs. Their lack of care and communication speaks volumes about their approach to customer service. Reviewed on: 11th August 2023

Simple and good value

Easy to use and manage, clear documentation, simple to autorenew as required. Reviewed on: 9th August 2023

Cannot find better!

I’ve been with LV for years and years; not because I’m on auto renew but because I cannot, and I mean cannot, get the same cover, friendly customer service from UK call centres and competitive premiums anywhere else. I think I’ve now been with LV for over 20 years! Every year I shop around but LV always come out on top. I find their staff so helpful and friendly; it’s a pleasure calling LV with very short waiting times too. I’ve insured at least 6 vehicles with them. Never had a claim so cannot comment on their claims service. Reviewed on: 8th August 2023

Never again

Worst company I've ever been insured by in 33 years of driving.. Avoid at all costs... Reviewed on: 2nd August 2023

Car insurance review

Great customer service, had no issues when I had to claim last year it was a smooth process. Reviewed on: 31st July 2023

Great Service and Value

Really impressed with the customer reps-- and the policy price. Fully comp was miles cheaper than others, with a lot of other perks for free. Really LOVE LV, and have renewed with them TWICE so far. Reviewed on: 31st July 2023
