Review of the M&S Bank - Marks and Spencer, Car Insurance:

Additional fees all the time

Couldn't process online so had to call and they wouldn't honour online quote so ended up being £70 additional cost. Then changed my name after getting married and was charged an additional premium. Won't be using again. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024

UNFORGIVEABLE

AVOID AT ALL COST!!! Been loyal customer for over 10 years, car insurance was confirmed on automatic renewal, they cancelled without notice leaving me uninsured - criminal!!! Reviewed on: 2nd September 2023

Great premium, easy set up, fantastic portal

Really easy setting up the policy, and the premium was extremely competitive. Portal is easy to use and all documents are readily accessible. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023

Most unhelpful corrupt car insurance

Horrible, horrible , horrible .. Don't touch this insurance.... unhelpful money grabbers ...rude staff...they told me they will collect my accident damaged car in for hours, my car right in front of my home had to wait 4weeks to someone to come and collect.... incredibly slow , accusative,corrupt people,unhelpful staff work there.. you are on your own .. don't touch this insurance...

Poor service

Had an accident in November 2022 which is still not resolved and have had no contact or updates despite being told that I would get a dedicated claims handler and my insurance premiums have almost trebled in price,also since registering a complaint have still heard nothing. The poorest service I have ever received. Expected more from a premium brand as they were not the cheapest insurers but was happy to pay a little more for piece of mind HOW WRONG WAS I.

Price goes up and they are holding my refund for a month

Had an amazing experience with Marks and sparks car insurance. Price was competitive, so I went for it. However after I had paid the year up front which in was tough enough, in order to save some pennies for food over the year, they say I didn't mention a claim on my policy, one that wasn't my fault and had cctv to prove it. They then upped my car insurance by over 100 pounds more. How lovely. Well needless to say, the price was no longer competitive and I was no longer in a mood to continue having them as my Insurers. I asked for a refund, well within my 14 days cooling off period, but they said as my policy does not start till August 28th, I will have to wait 7 or 8 days after that time to recieve a refund?! So now I am without insurance and without the money to afford any other car Insurance. So I will be walking 20 miles to walk come end of August. Can you Imagine the stress this has caused at home? Disgusting. Reviewed on: 5th August 2023

Car Insurance

Disgusting in a cost-of-living crisis, the price doubled without warning can barely afford it before but need it to get to work. If it didn't cost more to leave, I would have left instantly, but I simply cannot at the moment! M&S should be appalled by the way it treats people. Reviewed on: 5th August 2023

What a farce

Tried to claim....never ever claimed on any insurance in my life before. Someone reversed into me while I was parked. They admitted liability. Then it began....M&S Insurance.....what a shower. Long story short ...no one cares...no one rings you or texts you. Everyone working from home...babies crying. Their nominated garage would not answer phone....no alternate. On it went....then they said they closed the claim...why...who knows. I had the repair done and paid myself. I couldn't wait any longer and it was so stressful. Be warned M &S are a broker for this... just front this....the real company are people you've never heard of...it's a rubbish outfit of unhelpful,lazy home workers whose target is to wear you down with inactivity and not contacting you so you give up.AVOID.. Reviewed on: 27th July 2023

Insurance OK, financial team need work!!!

Fell behind with one payment! Constant phone messages, texts and emails! Was only a week late! Talk about a helpful after sales service!! AVOID! Reviewed on: 19th July 2023

You can't polish a turd!

Just absolutely embarrassingly awful. It honestly is like somebody has let a bunch of school leavers unattended in the contact center. Your dealing with rude and obnoxious people whose intelligence is certainly Limited, yet have amazingly high levels of arrogance and ignorance. Avoid all costs as truly this will drive you to despair trying to in deal with the garbage that they call staff. I'm trying to cancel my policy and so far I've placed it almost two hours doing something so basic because they are so incapable of dealing with it. Reviewed on: 18th July 2023

Awful Insurance Broker

There's a saying, you find out what a company is really like when things go wrong and sadly if you have to claim then thats when you find out. M&S have just rebadged a poorly run insurance provider, pay the extra, its not worth the hassle if you need to claim, it's all outsourced Reviewed on: 4th July 2023
