M&S Bank - Marks and Spencer Car insurance reviews (104)

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

Ok but a few problems

3
I was impressed with the quote from M&S and signed up for the product. However, they then contacted me to say that one of my previous insurance claims, even though it was one where I was not at fault (someone pranged my car and drove off), would make the insurance quote higher and I was forced into paying more than the quote. My previous insurance company did not make this decision and I did wish I'd stayed with my other company. Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

Appalling

1
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

1
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.

1
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

1
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

4
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

1
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

4
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

Excellent car insurance

5
Good price when you factor in all the benefits. Reviewed on: 11th July 2017
