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

I joined for the switching bonus.

I've had a good experience with M&S so far. Switching was painless and I shop at M&S regularly so the bonus was worth it for me. Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Excellent service

My car was insured with `M&S. Unfortunately I had to make 2 claims in a year - the second was a 'dent and run' driver! The call centre could not have been more helpful and polite. My car was repaired with no hassle! Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

Terrible service if you have a claim

1
They outsource claims to the most unhelpful and useless company called CoVea. They take so long to resolve claims. Even when you totally not to blame. Never contact you when promise, don't chase up witnesses. Registered complaint with M&S and even they gave in writing an incorrect contact number. Don't wast your money go to a proper insurance company Reviewed on: 24th May 2017

Don't insure with M & S

1
Very poor response to a claim which took nearly 5 months to settle. We were between a rock and a hard stone and had to spend much time liaising between M & S and the insurance company with whom the policy was taken out. M & S very aggressive and unhelpful staff. Insurance company indifferent (Zurich) Unfortunately when you really need insurance and are victims of malicious damage M & S staff do not help. They just want to take your money. Please do NOT insure with M & S, they trade on their brand and so called reputation but fall woefully short in customer service. Shame on M & S. Churchill insurance customer service very professional, may not alway be cheaper but worth paying extra for peace of mind and courtesy. Reviewed on: 6th April 2017

very efficient and simple

a very competitive price with comprehensive cover Reviewed on: 4th February 2017

promised voucher for £55 never arrived

1
Took a new car insurance with M&S beginning of August 2016, was supposed to receive £55 voucher; in spite of several calls and emails, the voucher never came. 23 January 2017 Reviewed on: 24th January 2017

Terrible experience

2
My car was unattended and parked in hit by another car. The insurance is fully outsourced - empty shell. You will have to deal with 3 or 4 third party service providers who will do what they can to minimize obligations under the policy. There is a suggestion that they will authorize fixing my car in a few weeks time. And I have premium insurance with all the extras. Big mistake l! Again be warned not a real insurance and they will do what they can to avoid coverage. Reviewed on: 13th December 2016

Had someone run into me. I did not claim - but lost my no claims!!

1
First i found out about this was when offered a renewal! They had let the offending driver claim on my policy without telling me! I end up with a claim on my policy damaging my no-claim bonus. Very odd company and certainly one I will never trust again. Reviewed on: 7th November 2016
