M&S Bank - Marks and Spencer Car insurance reviews (96)

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

Prices scandalous

We have been with them for car insurance for 13 years without one claim but this year they want to put it up by over £200 and I have phoned around and got prices at 40 per cent less than their quote. So much for customer care Reviewed on: 2nd August 2018

Not the service I expected from M&S

Very disappointed that M&S would put its name to such a terrible insurance. The service is very poor - to get to speak to someone you have to spend at least 15 minutes listening to automated messages. When I moved house, they more than doubled my premium without explaining why and despite having not made any insurance claims. I will certainly not be using them again. Reviewed on: 1st August 2018

Appalling

Avoid at all costs. i was hit by uninsured driver who admitted liability but M and S (who blame underwriters Ageas) not interested and I have claim against my insurance unfairly!!! I would not recommend or use again! Reviewed on: 9th March 2018

They ramp the price up at every chance they get

Title says it all really, after the first year they increase the premium by a significant amount. Same applies if you need to make any changes to your policy because they know that you are locked into a contract. Avoid! Reviewed on: 6th December 2017

Upped Premium, but wouldn't/couldn't explain why.

My M&S Car Insurance renewal quote was significantly higher than my existing policy with them. When I rang M&S to ask for an explanation, they were unable to provide any reason for the increase. There was no embarrassment on their part, I think they wondered why I was querying it. Strange way to do business. Did not re-insure with them. Reviewed on: 28th November 2017

34% price increase on renewal

Rang and asked agent to justify. She could not - “we are not told the reasons for increase in premiums which is annoying” offered only 5% discount. Moved to LV at same price as last year. Reviewed on: 9th November 2017

Clearly showed prices

Clearly showed prices from last year and new price. Knowledgeable and helpful staff Reviewed on: 1st October 2017

Easy to use - bit pricey

Switched to M&S after my previous insurer hiked rates - again. Easy to deal with, even when I changed cars mid-point. But pricey, but I suppose you get what you pay for. Haven't claimed for anything yet, hence 8/10 until we test that part of their service. Reviewed on: 28th September 2017

Bringing in foreign insurance companies

after being with M and S for car insurance for a number of years,have just received a letter advising they have got a German company involved since 27th July.Will No longer give them my custom.Thought I was being insured by an English Company. I am absolutely furious. as I was advised when I went to reinsure. Reviewed on: 2nd August 2017

Best one

Best car insurance i have had done it over the phone help me get the right one Reviewed on: 1st August 2017

Trustworthy and reliable

Being involved in a car accident was managable with M&S. The problem was dealt with and although my car was written off, I was not at fault and came out unharmed and M&S helped get me on my feet! Reviewed on: 21st July 2017
